ERIC A. ‘‘RICK’’ CRAWFORD, A REPRESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS FROM ARKANSAS The CHAIRMAN. Good morning. This hearing of the Subcommittee of Livestock, Rural Development, and Credit to coordinate future investments in broadband, will come to order. Good morning, and welcome to this hearing to review broadband deployment in rural America. In this modern age, it is surprising to know that there are some parts of the country where the live video feed from this hearing is not viewable by our rural constitu- ents due to a lack of broadband access. In a time when commerce, leisure, and a transparent government rely on robust networks, we still find communities which are not connected through high-speed broadband. There are many communities still struggling to recover from a poor economy to attract new businesses and to connect new, critical services not otherwise offered in remote areas. The key to unlocking these opportunities lies in greater access to services which are readily available in larger rural communities and in urban areas. It is important to note that broadband can add tremendous edu- cational opportunities to small communities. The ability to access online courses, study materials, research, and online lectures afford students some of the most efficient and cost-effective avenues for not only continuing their education but turning their curiosity into careers. And these opportunities are supported through several programs which provide resources to local facilities such as schools and libraries. (1) VerDate Mar 15 2010 15:23 Aug 29, 2014 Jkt 041481 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 I:\DOCS\113-19\88993.TXT BRIAN 2 However, none of these opportunities can exist if the community itself is not connected with a robust high-speed network. Getting the most rural areas connected, much like the Rural Electrification Act accomplished for telephone service, remains a priority of this Committee. When the farm bill was reauthorized this year, several provisions were included to continue making these critical invest- ments in small towns and cities. I know in my district I too often visit towns and communities who have been waiting patiently for years for full access to the information superhighway. I know a lot has been done to bring access to rural communities, but it is my goal and the goal of this Committee to be able to do more than just tell people to wait a little longer. With us today we have representatives from USDA and industry who are on the front lines of expanding broadband service. The loan and grant programs provided through USDA and reauthorized in the 2014 Farm Bill are specifically designed to target the most rural and unserved areas in the country. While the focus of this hearing is on the deployment of broadband through RUS programs, these programs are not oper- ated in a vacuum. In the discussion today I believe it will be help- ful to review those changes in the recent farm bill in light of the FCC’s changes to how rural telecom companies receive assistance. The efforts by the FCC to reform the USF have a direct impact on smaller rate of return carriers who both rely on USF support to provide service and RUS loans to expand their coverage areas. As the FCC transitions into providing telecommunications access beyond traditional voice service, a careful coordination among the responsible agencies is critical to ensure funds are not wasted and the taxpayers receive the greatest return on these investments.

Mackie ’61, for her exceptional contributions to the field of historic textiles from Islamic lands. Louise Mackie received her bachelor of arts in art history from Wells College and with Carol Gaines Ruckle ’61 after graduation enjoyed visiting her Wells professor, Hannelore Glasser, in Florence, Italy, during two enlightening years of traveling, studying and working in Europe and the Middle East. That led to secretarial work in the Islamic Art Department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York which inspired studying Islamic art history with Professor Richard Ettinghausen for a master of arts at NYU’s Institute of Fine Arts, integrated with stimulating graduate studies at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. She recently retired as curator of textiles and Islamic art at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio. During her impressive curatorial career of 45 years, Mackie held positions at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, The Textile Museum in Washington, D.C., and taught at the University of Toronto. She was a founding director (in 1987) and past president of the Textile Society of America, which is thriving with over 800 WCA AWA R D members; sat on the Advisory Committee of The Textile Museum; and served on the Conseil de Direction of the Centre International d’Etude des Textiles Anciens (CIETA) CEREMONY INVITATION in Lyon, France.

Telecommunications Provider Locator This report lists the contact information and the types of services sold by 5,364 telecommunications providers. The last report was released November 27, 2001.1 All information in this report is drawn from providers’ April 1, 2002, filing of the Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet (FCC Form 499-A).2 This report can be used by customers to identify and locate telecommunications providers, by telecommunications providers to identify and locate others in the industry, and by equipment vendors to identify potential customers. Virtually all providers of telecommunications must file FCC Form 499-A each year.3 These forms are not filed with the FCC but rather with the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), which serves as the data collection agent. Information from filings received after November 22, 2002, and from filings that were incomplete has been excluded from the tables. Although many telecommunications providers offer an extensive menu of services, each filer is asked on Line 105 of FCC Form 499-A to select the single category that best describes its telecommunications business.
