Baton
Rouge, La - On August 25th and 27th, the Rural Utilities
Service (RUS) will host webinars focused on the Rural Broadband Access Loan and
Loan Guarantee Program (Broadband Program), which provides financing to
telecommunications providers in rural areas where traditional financing is not
otherwise available for the construction, improvement, and acquisition of
facilities and equipment to provide broadband service to eligible rural
communities.
These
webinars will inform participants about the major eligibility and regulatory
requirements of the program and will provide detailed guidance on how to submit
a successful loan application. There will also be time for participants to ask
the speakers specific questions about putting together an application.
Due to
the limited amount of room available for each session, interested parties
should pre-register with the RUS Policy and Outreach Division. Seats for each
session will be reserved in the order in which requests are received by the
RUS. Contact us soon to ensure you can attend the workshop that works best for
your schedule.
