What qualifies as a "high cost area"?
The actual definition of “high-cost area” will be determined by NTIA (National Telecommunications and Information Administration) in consultation with the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), but it will likely include an “unserved area in which the cost of building out broadband service is higher, as compared with the average cost of building out broadband service in unserved areas of the United States”, and other factors to be considered may be:
- the remote location
- the lack of population density
- the unique topography, and/or
- high rate of poverty of the area in question
What Tribal benefits are available?
The ACP helps to connect Tribal communities with Enhanced Tribal Benefits for consumers living on Tribal lands.
