Comments on Draft Resolution In compliance with Public Utilities Code § 311(g), a notice letter was e-mailed on April 3, 2015, informing all parties on the CASF Distribution List of the availability of the draft of this resolution for public comments at the Commission's website at http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/PUC/documents/. This letter also informed parties that the final conformed Resolution adopted by the Commission will be posted and available at this same website. No comments were received. Findings On June 26, 2014, the Commission approved Resolution T-17443, which implemented new timelines for applications to the CASF Broadband Infrastructure Grant Account and offered existing providers a “right of first refusal” to upgrade service in unserved and underserved areas. The window for new applications opened on December 1, 2014. UIA filed an application for CASF funding for its Wrightwood Project on December 8, 2014. The proposed project will improve speeds by installing a system capable of symmetrical 1 gigabit-per-second download/upload service to 1,857 households (2,710 housing units) in the community of Wrightwood, which lies astride the border of San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties. This system would provide broadband Internet service to an area that is currently underserved by landlines and has a mix of underserved and unserved coverage from wireless providers. The CBGs impacted by the project are 060379303012, 060710092011, 060710092012, and 060710092013. CD posted the proposed project area map, CBGs and zip codes by county for the UIA Wrightwood Project on the Commission’s CASF webpage under “CASF Application Project Summaries” on December 15, 2014. CD received no challenges to this project. CD reviewed and analyzed data submitted for the UIA Wrightwood Project’s CASF grant application to determine the project’s eligibility for CASF funding. This data included, but was not limited to: proof of a CPCN from the Commission; descriptions of current and proposed broadband infrastructure; geographic information system (GIS) formatted shapefiles mapping the project
