Get ready for the broadband stimulus fire drill. Sometime in June, the thinking goes, the National Telecommunications & Information Administration and the Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service will issue the required Notice of Funds Availability (NOFA) outlining criteria and application processes for the $7.2 billion in "broadband stimulus" funds the agencies will be disbursing, presumably in three rounds.
It now appears there will be separate NOFAs.
"There will be separate NOFAs," says MarkTolbert, NTIA spokesman. "To my knowledge, NTIA and RUS will each issue their own NOFA."
