On September 30 2016 the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) submitted their Semi-Annual Audit Report to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). As required by the FCC’s Fifth Report and Order, USAC must submit a semi-annual report to the FCC summarizing the status of all outstanding E-rate audit findings. The report details the process that USAC utilizes to recover improperly disbursed funds, and also provides a summary of audits that may lead to the recovery of previously committed funds.
