In a unanimous decision, the Plymouth-based New Hampshire Executive council has agreed to extend federal government funds in the amount of $50m to assist New Hampshire Electric Cooperative (NHEC) in expanding fiber-optic broadband in its service area.
The money is part of the federal American Rescue Plan Act and is included in the $221m sent to New Hampshire to extend high-speed internet to communities presently either unserved or underserved. The Co-op will also include tens of millions of its own funds for the project to supply broadband to an additional 73 towns in its service area.
Companies and local governments sometimes find it necessary to enlist printing services to provide them with Brochures or pamphlets explaining any additions, subtractions or disruptions in the services they provide, or to explain how funds are being distributed.
By the end of this year, the electric co-op’s new subsidiary, NH Broadband, will have begun the installation of fiber-optics for the first of the 23,259 homes set to receive it. The process should be complete by the end of 2026. NHEC revealed in its news release concerning the grant that:
“A full schedule of towns and areas to be served will be made available as construction plans are confirmed.”
The federal grant was awarded to NHEC by the New Hampshire Department of Business and Economic Affairs via a process that attracted a total of seven bidders.
