FCC Acts to Maximize Use of Public Funding in Virginia

The Federal Communications Commission grants RiverStreet Communications of Virginia, Inc. a limited waiver of the Commission’s Rural Digital Opportunity Fund (RDOF) service milestone and non-compliance rules. We will relieve RiverStreet of RDOF obligations to serve all the eligible census blocks within the census block groups covered by RiverStreet’s authorized winning bids in New Kent County (VA). This relief will prevent duplication with Cox Communications’ enforceable buildout commitment supported by federal and county funding to offer at a minimum broadband service at 1 Gbps/500 Mbps speeds to serve all the locations within these census block groups.
