Are the funds available for planning awards included in the award range described in the NOFA?
Broadband planning funds may not exceed $500,000. Funding for data collection and mapping purposes were limited to $3.8 million per state. Thus, the maximum award a state could expect through the State Broadband Data and Development Grant Program is $4,300,000. To date, NTIA has only funded 2 years of this 5-year program.
