Board tells Verizon: cut rates, step up broadband

company to cut rates by more than $8 million -- and perhaps as much as
$15 million a year, faulting the company on deployment of broadband
Internet service and other performance measures.
The board said Verizon could *avoid some of the $8.18 million* in rate

serve. The board criticized the company for lagging in this area.
