ORDER
Adopted: February 15, 2012 Released: February 15, 2012
By the Deputy Chief, Telecommunications Access Policy Division, Wireline Competition Bureau:
I. Consistent with precedent,' we grant a request filed by Loneman Day School (Loneman)2
seeking review of a decision made by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) under the
E-rate program (more formally known as the schools and libraries universal service support program).'
In its decision, USAC found that Loneman failed to secure timely extensions of the deadlines for services
implementation, as required by section 54.507(d) of the Commissions' rules, and of the deadlines for
invoice submission. Based on our review of the record, we find that Loneman's service provider was
unable to complete implementation on time for reasons beyond the service provider's control - one of the
criteria required by the rule for an extension of services implementation - and that Loneman made
significant efforts to secure the necessary extensions. Therefore, we grant Loneman's request and waive
section 54.507(d) of the Commission's rules.
2. We therefore remand the underlying application to USAC for further action consistent with
this order. To ensure that the underlying application is resolved expeditiously, we direct USAC to
complete its review of the application and issue an award or a denial based on a complete review and
