State broadband officers were invited to a Monday event to find out grant amounts, said Bullard at the New Jersey virtual outreach meeting: "All of these state broadband offices will get together and [President Joe] Biden will say, 'You get a grant' and 'You get a grant.'" NTIA Federal Program Officer Brynn Deprey said to expect a news release.
NTIA had earlier said it would announce BEAD allocations by June 30. NTIA will use the FCC map to determine how much money states receive in addition to the $100 million each they’re guaranteed under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
