Massachusetts received an NTIA greenlight Thursday to access $147 million from the broadband equity, access and deployment (BEAD) program. NTIA said it approved volume 2 of the state’s initial proposal. NTIA has approved entire initial plans for 20 states, three territories and the District of Columbia. The agency approved Utah and two territories earlier this week (see 2407220037).
