Sec.  54.506  Internal connections.

    A service is eligible for support as a component of an institution's 
internal connections if such service is necessary to transport 
information within one or more instructional buildings of a single 
school campus or within one or more non-administrative buildings that 
comprise a single library branch. Discounts are not available for 
internal connections in non-instructional buildings of a school or 
school district, or in administrative buildings of a library, to the 
extent that a library system has separate administrative buildings, 
unless those internal connections are essential for the effective 
transport of information to an instructional building of a school or to 
a non-administrative building of a library. Internal connections do not 
include connections that extend beyond a single school campus or single 
library branch. There is a rebuttable presumption that a connection does 
not constitute an internal connection if it crosses a public right-of-
way.
