Wednesday, 10/15: We added Texas to our list of BEAD provisional awards. 49 states have now announced provisional awards.
BEAD award money will go heavily toward LEO satellite in Colorado and Montana, but fiber wins in Arkansas and Maine.
This comprehensive update details, as far as possible, the BEAD Benefit of the Bargain funding round for each state.
Newby hopes the two providers who originally bid for — and were preliminarily selected for — North Dakota BEAD funds will bid again.
Newby believes that, after the BEAD challenge process, North Dakota will have roughly 2,000 locations left to reach with fiber broadband.
