State of Alaska Regulatory
STATE OF ALASKA REGULATORY COMMISSION OF ALASKA Before Commissioners: G. Nanette Thompson, Chair Bernie Smith Patricia M. DeMarco Will Abbott James S. Strandberg REGULATORY COMMISSION OF ALASKA 1016 West Sixth Avenue, Suite 305 Anchorage, Alaska PUBLIC MEETING November 3, 1999 8:30 o'clock a.m. P R O C E E D I N G S Tape 1 0015 (On record - 8:30 a.m.) COURT REPORTER: On record, Madam Chair. CHAIR THOMPSON: Thank you. I want to welcome everyone to the Special Public Meeting of the Regulatory Commission of Alaska on promoting universal telecommunication service in unserved and underserved areas, and to rural health care providers. And I want to recognize on the phone we have Linda Sturle (ph) from the Tanana Chiefs Conference. All of the Commissioners are present this morning. And we also have a special guest, Lt. Governor Fran Ulmer that we'll hear comments from in a moment. We're here this morning because the Federal Communications Commissioner is interested in insuring that all Americans are connected to the telecommunications network. The FCC has issued a notice of inquiry and asked for comments from states like ours that have communities with lower connection rates than the national average. The information we have about communities in Alaska that are not connected by the road system is incomplete. We do know that the percentage of households with telecommunications services in some of Alaska's rural areas is less than in the urban areas. What we don't know is why this is true and what we can do to remedy the situation. -

This report can be downloaded and interactively searched on the FCC-State Link Internet site at www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/locator.html. 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.
