How Can Permitting & ROW Affect Broadband Deployment

The leading broadband industry associations have come together to launch a series of monthly educational webinars for State Broadband Leaders, NTIA, communities, ISPs and key stakeholders focused on key topics related to the $42.45B NTIA BEAD broadband infrastructure funding program implementation and deployment. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to connect every American with broadband, elevating quality of life for generations to come. An unprecedented amount of money will be flowing through states to expand all types of infrastructure. As a result, local and state agencies will likely experience a large influx of applications for infrastructure permits, and many private landowners will also receive applicants for easement rights, required for the resulting broadband deployments.

On this webinar, CCA, NRECA, and NRTC will discuss some of the things states will need to consider when crafting their state broadband plan, given the NTIA BEAD rules require states to address potential barriers to deployment. Join us for a discussion of permitting and ROW issues and gain valuable resources and tips for making your broadband deployment projects go as smoothly as possible.
