Click here to read the Volume 1 Draft and to submit you comments today! broadband.nebraska.gov/public-comment-page![]()
Under the Broadband, Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program, Nebraska will receive $405 Million Dollars to connect every household and business with broadband service. In order to receive those funds, Nebraska needs to submit a proposal on how those funds will be utilized to the National Telecommunications and Information Agency for approval. The Nebraska Broadband Office has released Volume 1 the initial draft of that proposal which identifies existing funding, unserved and underserved locations, community anchor institutions, and a challenge process to ensure an accurate map of broadband availability.![]()
For further BEAD Program information and to read Nebraska’s 5-year Action Plan, please go to broadband.nebraska.gov/public-comment-page/.![]()
We encourage everyone to review Volume 1 and participate in this public comment process as our region needs quality broadband.
