This long overdue action will help meet consumer demand, remove obstacles to U.S. global leadership, and is essential to closing the digital divide for rural America.

Washington, D.C., – Competitive Carriers Association President and CEO Tim Donovan made the following statement regarding Federal Communications Commission (FCC) deregulatory action regarding the National Broadband Map: “CCA thanks the FCC for acting to reduce regulatory burdens on broadband providers by eliminating the PE certification requirement for BDC filings. CCA has long advocated for this change, including through multiple waiver requests. Today, the FCC codified a more flexible and practical approach that recognizes the qualifications of experienced engineers. CCA also welcomes Commissioner Olivia Trusty to the FCC and appreciates her support, which made adoption of this item possible. We look forward to working with her and the full FCC to advance policies that reduce unnecessary regulatory burdens and provide connectivity to every American.” For more information about CCA and its policy priorities, please visit ccamobile.org. ### About Competitive Carriers Association Competitive Carriers Association (CCA) is the leading association for competitive communications service providers and stakeholders across the United States.
