State of Nevada Launches $400 million High Speed Nevada Phase III Subgrantee Selection

The State of Nevada Governor’s Office of Science, Innovation and Technology (OSIT) announced the start of subgrantee selection for Phase III of the High Speed Nevada Initiative (HSNV). Phase III will award over $400 million to deploy faster internet service to over 52,000 unserved and underserved residential and community locations in Nevada. Funding for HSNV Phase III will come from primarily Nevada’s allocation of Broadband Equity Access Deployment (BEAD) and will fund ‘last-mile’ broadband deployment projects, or projects within communities and neighborhoods that bring connectivity to the home. Nevada received $416 million in BEAD funding from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).
