1 AT&T Mobility filed its FCC Form 555 online with USAC. Once a carrier enters its six-digit study area code (“SAC”) into USAC’s online FCC Form 555, the online tool automatically populates a name associated with that SAC. In some cases, this automatically generated name differs from (e.g., is an abbreviated version of) the legal
entity name for AT&T Mobility’s eligible telecommunications carrier affiliate.
