9New FCC Guidance on Hot Spot Competitive Bidding In late 2002, the FCC issued a decision that has come to be known as the Kalamazoo Reconsideration Order (DA 02-2975) that permits applicants who are posting Form 470 requests for new services to receive discounts under longer-term contracts that had been signed prior to the new competitive bidding process.
The Kalamazoo decision assumed that any such earlier contract would have been competitively bid and hence would meet the bidding requirements for a newly eligible service. Last week, the FCC issued explicit guidance to USAC (DA 24-1287) clarifying that the Kalamazoo competitive bidding exemption does not apply to hot spots and related wireless internet services that are newly eligible for E-Rate discounts as of FY 2025 .
The FCC explained that there could be no assurances that earlier hotspot and internet contracts — especially contracts signed under the auspices of the Emergency Connectivity Fund (“ECF”) for which the applicants paid no percentage of the cost — had been truly competitively bid. > Contact ERate@la. gov with questions.
## Updated FAQs on Hot Spots Q: Can applicants apply for more wireless Internet access lines than Wi-Fi hotspot devices or must they request an equal number of lines and devices? What if the applicant already bought Wi-Fi hotspots through other means (e.g., ECF or other funding sources)? Q: Can an applicant request more Wi-Fi hotspot devices than wireless Internet access lines just in case the devices are lost, stolen, or stop working?
Q: Can applicants request Wi-Fi hotspot devices and pair them with private network services or wireless Internet access purchased via another funding source? Q: Do we have to purchase all of our Wi-Fi hotspot devices/lines of service at once or can we stagger the purchases based on student or library patron needs? > Contact ERate@la.
