FCC Releases Broadband Funding Map

The FCC released a broadband funding map Monday, as mandated by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The map allows users to "identify, search, and filter federal funding programs" by ISPs receiving funding, the duration, number of locations for a project and speeds, said an Office of Economics and Analytics and Wireline Bureau public notice in docket 19-195. It includes funding summaries of the FCC's Connect America Fund Phase II and Rural Digital Opportunity Fund, NTIA's broadband infrastructure program and tribal broadband connectivity program, the Rural Utilities Service's community connect grant program, ReConnect, and telephone loan program, and the Treasury Department's Capital Projects Fund. The map also includes broadband availability data as of June 30.
