FCC TO RULE ON PCIA PETITION

WASHINGTON-The Federal Communications Commission is scheduled today to rule on a Personal Communications Industry Association petition to forbear from enforcing mandatory wireless resale rules.

The FCC has given few clues on what it will decide.

However, interviews with industry lobbyists suggest the agency could reject the forbearance petition but affirm an earlier ruling that would sunset wireless resale regulations five years after the last broadband personal communications services license is granted.
