Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 184 / Monday, September 23, 2024 / Notices
schedule, replacing the previous annual
requirement, such that all carriers
receiving high-cost support are required
to report and certify their quarterly
performance testing results within two
weeks, rather than within one week,
after the end of the quarter in which the
tests are conducted. See High Cost
Administrative Order, FCC 25–87, para.
138. Accordingly, this collection
includes the requirements for testing
speed and latency, and reporting and
certifying such performance measures
within two weeks after the end of each
quarter to ensure that carriers are
meeting the public interest obligations
associated with their receipt of high-cost
universal service support.
Carriers will identify, from among the
locations they have already submitted
and certified in USAC’s High Cost
Universal Broadband (HUBB) portal, the
locations where they have an active
subscriber (deployment locations are
reported under OMB Control Number
3060–1228, and active locations will be
reported under this control number).
From those subscriber locations, USAC
will then select a random sample from
which the carrier will be required to
perform testing for speed and latency.
Carriers that do not provide location
information in the HUBB will use a
randomization tool provided by USAC
to select a random sample of locations
for testing. Due to the rule changes that
the Commission adopted on the High
Cost Administrative Order, the carrier
will then be required to submit to USAC
the results of the testing on a quarterly
basis. The quarterly filing will include
the testing results from the prior quarter.
The carrier’s sample for each service tier
(e.g. 10 Mbps/1 Mbps, 25 Mbps/3 Mbps)
shall be regenerated every two years.
During the two-year cycle, carriers will
have the ability to add and remove
subscriber locations if necessary, e.g., as
subscribership changes. Also, in July
2023, the Commission adopted the
Enhanced Alternative-Connect America
Cost Model (E–ACAM) support
mechanism, a new model-based offer to
existing Alternative-Connect America
Cost Model (A–CAM) I, A–CAM II, and
Connect America Fund Broadband Loop
Support (CAF BLS) carriers. See
Connect America Fund: A National
Broadband Plan for Our Future HighCost Universal Service Support et al.,
WC Docket No. 10–90 et al., Report and
Order, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking,
and Notice of Inquiry, FCC 23–60, at
23–24, para. 49 (July 24, 2023)
(Enhanced A–CAM Order). Revisions
proposed include (1) a process for E–

ACAM carriers to get a performance
measures testing sample from nonHUBB reported locations, and (2) and
reporting and certifying such
performance measures within two
weeks after the end of each quarter. The
proposed revisions also include the
retitling of this collection from
‘‘Connect America Fund—Performance
Testing Measures’’ to ‘‘Administrative
Order—Performance Testing Measures.’’
The Commission therefore proposes to
revise this information collection to
reflect these modified requirements.
