PSC Sets Rules on How EMCs Will Offer Rural Broadband

Atlanta,  April 22, 2020 – The Georgia Public Service Commission has released a final order directing Electric Membership Cooperatives that want to provide broadband Internet service in rural parts of the state to develop a cost allocation manual. The PSC must approve that manual before the EMC can start to provide Internet service.

The PSC order represents the culmination of a yearlong effort between the PSC, EMCs, the Georgia Cable Association, and AT&T. Officials with all these groups were tasked by the Georgia General assembly to develop guidelines for EMC broadband service via Senate Bill 2, which passed in the 2019 session of the General Assembly.
