Title: Broadband Grant Program.
OMB Control Number: 0572–0127.
Summary of Collection: Congress has
recognized the need to facilitate the
deployment of broadband service to unserved rural areas. The provision to
broadband transmission service is vital
to the economic development,
education, health, and safety of rural
Americans.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2004 (Title III, Pub. L. 108–199, Stat. 3),
7 CFR 1739 Subpart A, as amended,
authorizes the Rural Development,
Rural Utilities Service (RUS) to
administer the Community Connect
Grant Program for the provision of
broadband transmission service in rural
America. Grant authority is utilized to
deploy broadband infrastructure to
extremely rural, lower income
communities on a ‘‘community-oriented
connectivity’’ basis.
Need and Use of the Information:
RUS gives priority to rural areas that it
believes have the greatest need for
broadband transmission services. This
broadband access is intended to
promote economic development and
provide enhanced educational and
health care opportunities. RUS will
provide financial assistance to eligible
entities that are proposing to deploy
broadband transmission service in rural
communities where such service does
not currently exist and who will
connect the critical community facilities
including the local schools, libraries,
hospitals, police, fire and rescue
services and who will operate a
community center that provides free
and open access to residents.

or other for-profit.
