Lumen Abandons RDOF Deployment Goal
On May 13, 2025 the Universal Service Administrative Company sent Lumen Technologies an e-mail regarding the company's efforts to meet the 40 percent milestone for the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund (“RDOF”) program by December 31, 2025. As Federal Communications Commission staff are aware, on Friday, June 6, 2025, Lumen relinquished its remaining RDOF awards. Given this relinquishment, Lumen will not continue its efforts to meet the 40 percent RDOF milestone by the end of this year.
