To access the funding, WBO must present a plan to serve all locations without service today, defined as anything less than or equal to 25 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up.

WBO may award funds for a mix of technologies, including, but not limited to fiber, licensed fixed wireless, HFC, unlicensed fixed wireless, and satellite.

Connect Wyoming 2 (CPF) is underway currently and uses funding awarded by the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Projects Fund. There are similarities between the programs, but NTIA and Treasury maintain different rules and timelines.
