Summary

The bill updates the definition of an eligible broadband project and tightens the information that providers must submit to receive BEAM funding. It also adds new review steps, public posting of applications, and a comment period, while prohibiting awards where another provider is already building service. The changes aim to ensure state grants go to projects that truly expand broadband to unserved or underserved areas.
