WASHINGTON, May 20, 2026 – MSEC Communications has notified the Federal Communications Commission that it is withdrawing from the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund program.
The company cited mounting construction and regulatory costs tied to serving the remaining locations in its award area. The Texas-based provider had originally been awarded nearly $4.2 million to deploy broadband service to 9,024 locations.
According to the company, it has already completed deployment to more than 92 percent of those locations but determined the remaining buildout was no longer financially sustainable.
