ADTRAN Broadband Stimulus - RUS/NTIA Workshop Results
The agencies responsible for distributing the $7.2B of broadband stimulus held workshops around the country during the latter half of July. ADTRAN attended these workshops and discovered several key pieces of information that applicants need to be aware of as you prepare for funding. These workshops provide the most detail yet on exactly what is needed from the applicants. This webinar will cover not only what is required for the application itself but also will explore the necessary reporting requirements and auditing requirements set forth by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Office of Inspector General (OIG).
