The Oregon Broadband Office (OBO) is in the process of applying for federal funding to provide high-speed, reliable internet access in areas that need it most. Help us ensure this initiative delivers reliable, affordable, high-speed internet, and digital equity for all Oregonians. As part of this process, the Broadband office is preparing an Initial Proposal and a Digital Equity Plan that will clearly outline how the OBO plans to administer the programs. You will have the opportunity to review and comment on these plans this coming November and December. After the public comment period, the OBO will finalize the plans and submit them to the federal government by the end of December 2023. Funding is expected to be made available in 2025. Learn more about Oregon’s Initial Proposal and Digital Equity Plan by attending an information session at the Willamette Valley Broadband Event. You may also review the plans and provide your comments at broadband.oregon.gov or contact us at 503-986-0021 or broadband.oregon@biz.oregon.gov
