From the Office of Broadband Development…
The Office of Broadband Development is emailing to announce the anticipated date for the second round of subgrantee selection for the BEAD program, 11b, has moved, and 11b is now planned to open on May 27, 2025.
This change in date is a result of the number and complexity of applications submitted during the first round, 11a, of subgrantee selection. To ensure sufficient time for careful review of the applications and revision requests, OBD will extend the period between the close of 11a and opening of 11b. These updates will be reflected shortly on the OBD BEAD webpage.
Subsequently, OBD is rescheduling the Tuesday May 6, 11b Application Information Session and 11b Weekly Office hours. If you already registered for any of the events below you should have received emails updating on these changes.
- Application Information Session, rescheduled for Tuesday May 20, 11am, previously May 6.
- Weekly office hours, 11b:
- Rescheduled for Tuesday May 27, 11am, previously May 13.
- Rescheduled for Tuesday June 3, 11am, previously May 20.
We thank you for your continued collaboration and engagement with the office on the federal BEAD program.
