Rural Development United States Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service Broadband Initiatives Program Round Two Application Directory Last Mile and Middle Mile Infrastructure Applications Issue Date: June 2, 2010 Broadband Initiatives Program (BIP) Round 2 Infrastructure Application Directory Important Notes This directory includes applicant information for all 776 BIP Last Mile and Middle Mile Infrastructure applications received during Round 2, as well as a listing of organizations which filed Public Notice Responses (PNRs) to Round 2 BIP Infrastructure Applications. Please note that RUS did not receive PNRs for every application. If no PNRs are listed for a given application, none were received. Applications are sorted alphabetically by the applicant’s state of incorporation, then by applicant name. An applicant’s proposed project area(s) can be located: 1) Within the applicant’s state of incorporation; 2) Outside the applicant’s state of incorporation; or, 3) In multiple states. In any case, each application is only listed once within this directory. For instance, Butler Telephone Company, Inc., found on page 1 of this directory, is incorporated in the state of Alabama, and therefore listed in this directory in the Alabama section. However, Butler’s application is proposing to serve portions of both the states of Alabama and Mississippi, but is only listed under Alabama, Butler’s state of incorporation. If you are interested in searching for applications which include proposed project area(s) within a specific state, you can use the Find or Search functions both located under the Edit menu in Adobe Acrobat.

This Loan/Grant application is submitted to improve communication access to the majority of the population in Owen County. It covers approximately 111 square miles, incorporating 3100 housing units and 140 businesses. Our application is designed to place fiber (HFC) to nodes (serving sections) throughout the cabled area. With fiber, the existing coaxial plant can deliver with improved performance and reliability the communications for voice, data and video. In areas where the coaxial plant cannot support the services, fiber (RFoG) will be used to connect directly to the home. Signal technology will be by RF in analog and digital format. Voice will ride on IP (Internet Protocol) transported to the headend by digital RF which delivers both video and data.

AzulStar will deploy mobile 2.5GHz WiMAX, which is a nonproprietary, 4th generation (4G) wireless broadband technology that outpaces all other broadband technologies for both price and performance. The innovative network will use some 60MHz of licensed spectrum at 2.5GHz to deliver fixed and mobile connections of 10Mbps and beyond. The highly advanced system will have a lasting impact on New Mexico by creating a platform for innovation and sustainable economic growth. Given the highly rural and sparse nature of the area being targeted, federal financial assistance is essential in order to make this vision a reality.

Most of the population living outside of Washoe and Clark Counties have, to date, been living without access to true broadband internet service. To resolve this iniquity, ANTC is proposing a state of the art microwave radio backbone; a MiddleMile system to provide significant bandwidth to WISPs, anchor institutions and enterprise users in 15 PFSA’s where it does not exist or is grossly cost prohibitive to access today. Utilizing cutting edge LTE/WiMax ready technology, the system will provide highly reliable and scalable broadband transport to enhance existing but limited fiberoptic cable or provide transport where fiberoptic cable is unavailable. 186 CCF’s and PSF’s along with more than 16,500 premises will have access to the system via local ISP’s using ANTC’s proposed network.

The project will bring the infrastructure to existing electrical substation sites that were built over the years to extend electrical service to rural areas. Strategic sites in the network will be provisioned with a solution to extend broadband over power line (BPL). The fiber backhaul network will deliver an average nominal capacity of 10 Gbps with ability to scale higher. The Applicant seeks an infrastructure grant to build out a 165 mile middlemile broadband network passing over 400 critical community facilities and public safety entities.

The existing communication facilities limit, and in some cases prevent, provision of FCC mandated high speed broadband service. Present backhaul expenses limit us to providing minimum required bandwidths and because of sparse population and long rural loops, our customers will be unable to afford the rising cost of broadband in the future. Increased speeds are needed to meet current and future customer demands as well as regulatory standards. Building fiber facilities to adjacent, larger communities would reduce backhaul costs by one half and provide a platform to increase our bandwidth 450%. The new facilities will enable rural customers the advantage of connecting for online education, telecommuting and competing for jobs otherwise unavailable.

The proposed funded service area is almost all rural area with the exception of Victoria, Texas. Victoria is in the middle of an Internet desert. Victoria has no tier 1 carriers and the surrounding area has few Internet options. This proposal would bring affordable internet service from the closest tier 1 Internet carriers in Corpus Christi, Texas through wireless towers that double as access points for last mile Internet service. This project is the most cost effective way to get highspeed Internet service to the area. Awesome Net, Inc knows that the economic advantages of affordable high speed Internet will rival the rural electrification of this area in the 1930’s. Awesome Net, Inc. is proud to be part of the effort to improve our communities.

By leveraging the middle mile fiber with wireless, last mile facilities, the project will enable BTC to provide, affordable broadband service to households, businesses and critical community facilities currently lacking high speed broadband service. Broadband service potential will exceed 5Mbps to all Blossom wireline customers upon completion. Wireless customers will be offered packages up to 3 Mbps along the middle mile route that is currently unserved.

This is a significant barrier to the development in the region. The recent expansion in natural gas exploration in the region has created opportunity for change. The community can only reach the outside world at high speed if they are fortunate enough to live in close proximity to a telephone company end office, and even then access is not economical. This project overlays existing telecommunications infrastructure with WiMax wireless access. Offering broadband equivalent to or better than that available in more urban areas at speeds over 3Mbps. In addition to providing broadband capabilities to homes & industry this project will provide heavily subsidized access to community anchors such as hospitals, schools, government agencies & emergency responders.

This project theme will contend that an industry education movement needs to be underway where the fiber, cable, copper, and wireless industries are persuaded that the adaptive DNS and multiple internet gateway routing of the “hot cloudâ € 3GWiFi mesh block convergent networks, with its open competition model, for example, would not lower ARPUs in any of those industries, but actually increase them because of the adaptive and carrier agnostic properties.

This is accomplished by connecting 3 separate fiber lines to Nelson Counties “middle mile†. One line would run from Wintergreen’s 1st responders & 911 facilities to Nelson County’s “middle mile†at the intersection of River Rd. & Adial Rd. (Routes 6 & 634 west). The 2nd would run from Scottsville’s Police Dept. & 1st responders to Nelson Countyâ €™s “middle mile†at the intersection of River Road & Old Roberts Mtn. Rd. (US Routes 6 & 634 east). The 3rd would run from Brownings Cove to Lovingston. The synergy created by building on the earlier project will have a multiplier effect on the value of both by providing high speed access to anyone along any of the routes, including the Round 1 “middle mile†.

Our PFSA is both unserved and underserved, contains two persistent poverty counties, and is located in the Appalachians of Northeast Tennessee. The project will pass 10,920 premises. It places emphasis on partnering with three funded Middle Mile projects, and has synergistic operations planned with two other Last Mile applications. These partnerships will create a Digital Nexus of connectivity that will break the cycle of persistent poverty. This project will do this by bringing global connectivity that is needed to support lifelong education of the labor force, and driving economic development with techniques that have only become possible in the Digital Age.
