Washington D.C. - CCA, alongside INCOMPAS, NCTA, and NTCA, met with the FCC to discuss the draft Advancing IP Interconnection NPRM slated for the FCC’s October Open Meeting. The associations urged the Commission to ensure a careful IP transition that protects existing interconnection arrangements, avoids service disruptions, and builds a robust record before changing key voice network rules. The associations also emphasized the ongoing need for FCC involvement to preserve consumer protection and a fair competitive landscape both now and in an all-IP environment.

Washington, D.C. – Competitive Carriers Association President and CEO Tim Donovan made the following statement regarding the Federal Communications Commission’s adoption of a Notice of Inquiry on Accelerating Wireline Infrastructure Buildout and a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Freeing Wireless Infrastructure from Unlawful Regulatory Burdens: “CCA thanks the FCC for opening new proceedings today on improving the wireline and wireless permitting processes. Permitting has been a significant challenge for CCA members working to close the digital divide in rural areas, and further streamlining and improvement is necessary.
