Abstract:
This submission is being made for non-substantive changes to an existing information collection pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507. This submission adds a certification to the Cybersecurity Pilot Program’s FCC Form 474 and the third part of the FCC Form 484 to reflect the revised suspension and debarment framework adopted by the Commission to exclude or limit bad actors from participation in federal funding programs, such as the Universal Service Fund (USF) programs. The Commission established a three-year Cybersecurity Pilot Program to ascertain whether supporting cybersecurity and advanced firewall services with universal service support could advance the key universal service principles of providing quality Internet and broadband services to K-12 schools and libraries at just, reasonable, and affordable rates; and to ensure schools' and libraries' access to advanced telecommunications provided by Congress in the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
