FCC halts Verizon copper landline service cuts, for now

The Federal Communications Commission has blocked Verizon's application to cut copper landline service, stating it "requires additional time to complete its review." The move follows a half-month of public comment overwhelmingly opposing the company's proposed cuts in nine states. Verizon's application would have been automatically approved Sept. 26 without FCC intervention the day before. "We emphasize that our removal of Verizon's application from the automatic grant process is not a final determination on the merits of Verizon's request for authority to discontinue service," the FCC wrote in a one-page filing posted to its website. The FCC did not specify when it would weigh in on the landline cuts. Fauquier and Rappahannock residents and officials expressed grave concern that landline cuts would strand them from emergency services. County officials orchestrated a comment writing campaign that saw 113 Rappahannock residents ask the FCC to block Verizon's cuts. Rappahannock County Administrator Garrey Curry said in an email he was "grateful that the FCC is taking additional time to review the Verizon application." Verizon, in its own 17-page filing , told the FCC that approving its cuts would improve connectivity "without leaving consumers behind." "Every day that passes without approval is a missed opportunity

School energy proposal draws questions about costs

(The Center Square) – A proposal to add energy requirements to Virginia’s school construction sales tax provisions drew questions Monday about upfront costs and potential savings for taxpayers. Energy Commission of Virginia staff presented the recommendation to a commission subcommittee reviewing energy use and backup power in public schools. Staff recommended incorporating on-site renewable energy generation, energy storage and features that help schools operate during outages into provisions governing the additional local sales tax for school construction and renovation. Localities can ask voters to approve an additional sales tax of up to 1% for school construction and renovation. Participating cities and counties will put that question before voters Nov. 3. Sen. Mark Obenshain, R-Rockingham, questioned whether the approach would leave localities choosing between accepting additional project costs and forgoing the tax revenue. He asked for estimates showing how much the requirements would add to construction costs and what retrofitting existing buildings would cost. He said local governments need information about both expenses and savings before members proceed with policy discussions. Commission Executive Director Carrie Hearne said costs would vary by project and staff could continue researching them. She pointed to energy savings performance contracts, which guarantee savings as part of
