E-rate funding restarts, but crisis continues

CNET Reports On Monday, the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), the not-for-profit organization that administers E-rate funds on behalf of the Federal Communications Commission, issued 198 letters to schools and libraries, promising funding that totals $23.4 million, said Mel Blackwell, vice president of external communications for the group. Additional letters will be issued once more funds have been collected, he added.
