The offer of Connect America Phase II model-based support was targeted to price cap areas that are high-cost, but not extremely high-cost. An area was classified as \u201celigible\u201d if the average monthly cost-per-location for that census block, as calculated by the Connect America Cost Model (CAM) (version 4.3), was above the $52.50 funding benchmark but below a $198.60 extremely high cost threshold, and not served by an unsubsidized competitor, subsidized wireline competitor, or was not subject to specific types of bids in the rural broadband experiments. Eligible areas that were accepted are shown in bright green on the map. Declined funding will be made available at a future date through a competitive bidding process.\n\nEmpty areas with no color are either areas served by another class of carriers, called rate-of-return carriers, which are not eligible for the offer of model-based support from the Connect America Fund, but receive support from other universal service high-cost mechanisms; areas declined by price cap carriers; areas where the average monthly cost-per-location is above $52.50 but below $198.60, but the area was deemed served by an unsubsidized competitor, a subsidized wireline competitor, or was removed from the offer to price cap carriers due to the rural broadband experiments; areas where the average monthly cost-per-location was calculated by version 4.3 of the CAM as above $198.60; and/or areas reported as uninhabited.", "summary": "This map identifies the areas where some of the nation's largest phone companies, also known as price cap carriers, accepted Phase II support from the FCC\u2019s Connect America Fund to provide broadband and voice service over the next six years.", "title": "Lincoln County, WI", "tags": [ "Broadband", "CAFII", "WIRELESS", "VOICE", "DATA", "LINCOLN COUNTY WI" ], "type": "Map Service", "typeKeywords": [ "Data", "Service", "Map Service", "ArcGIS Server" ], "thumbnail": "thumbnail/thumbnail.png", "url": "", "extent": [ [ -90.0482128951052, 45.1190841458939 ], [ -89.4231530576007, 45.5563280636857 ] ], "spatialReference": "WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere", "accessInformation": "Lincoln County, WI", "licenseInfo": "" }
