Elements of an FCC notice of inquiry should include questions related to “the length of time for the transition, jurisdictions, definitions for a completed transition, legacy network needs until all customers are switched over, PSTN maintenance during and after a transition, carrier of last resort issues, consumer choice and pricing issues, and quality and reliability issues,” the group said in comments it filed on a proposed national broadband plan.
“Today’s policy rules, which were designed for the PSTN, could cause irreparable harm if the rules do not also change as we transition to an all-broadband network,” OPASTCO President John Rose said in statement. OPASTCO, which says it represents small, independently owned, local telecommunications companies serving primarily rural areas in the United States and Canada.
