| May 9, 2012 On May 7th the IUB issued an Informational Order entitled "In
Re: FCC Compliance Filings – Intrastate Access Tariffs” that identifies a
number of provisions in the FCC’s USF-ICC Transformation Order of November 2011
that cause different impacts on rate-of-return carriers, price cap carriers,
and CLECs.
This Order requires every ITA member to make a separate letter filing with
the IUB. In addition, it asks ITA to file its proposed changes to the ITA
Access Tariff by May 23rd. (see next story for more on the ITA
Tariff). In this Order, the IUB establishes a schedule
listing dates when various parties should make filings to update their tariffs
or to identify the tariffs in which the LEC concurs. Click here for more |

This year’s program will focus on the efforts of the locally-owned and operated broadband providers to expand and improve their high-speed internet networks. We will highlight some success stories to demonstrate how well-crafted regulatory policies can spur continued investment in robust networks to the benefit of all Iowans, how ill-advised policies can discourage and threaten continued expansion of next generation broadband capabilities throughout Iowa.
Agenda topics and speakers include:
Representative Dave Loebsack (Invited)
July 1st: Are You Ready?, Doug Eidahl, Vantage Point Solutions
Iowa Utilities Board Chair Libby Jacobs
Broadband Adoption, Chris Williams, Iowa Network Services
