| FCDL Comment: |
This FRN is being denied because the FCC Form 470 does not comply with the statutory mandate that applicants submit "bona fide requests for services." Per the FCC's Ysleta Order, an applicant's FCC Form 470 must be based upon its carefully thought-out technology plan and must detail specific services sought in a manner that would allow bidders to understand the specific technologies that the applicant is seeking. Thus, a Form 470 that sets out virtually all elements that are on the eligible services list would not allow a bidder to determine what specific services the applicant was seeking. A Form 470 should not be a general, open-ended solicitation for all services available on the eligible services list, with the hope that bidders will present more concrete proposals. We find that the Form 470 that established the bidding for this FRN is encyclopedic and does not list only those services for which funding was actually sought. Furthermore, a Request for Proposal was not issued to narrow the scope of the desired services to only those that you actually applied for in this funding request. Because you relied on an encyclopedic FCC Form 470, the FRN is denied. |
