The National Journal reports on attempts to rework the federal universal service fund.

The National Journal is reporting that the FCC is close to making a proposal on revamping the Universal Service Fund. Some of the discussion mentioned in the article involves the use of the fund for deploying broadband in underserved areas.

On October 2nd, I attended the launch of Redwood Coast Connect a project whose ultimate goal is to provide broadband access to everyone in the four county area including Mendocino, Humboldt, Del Norte, and Trinity counties. The project has received $500,000 in funding from the California Emerging Technology Fund and the Humboldt Area Foundation. I'm encouraging everyone in the four county area to participate in the study of broadband in the four county area. You can ask to be a part of the study by going to the Contact Redwood Coast Connect signup page.

Here are a couple of news article related to the study.
