Subject: National Inventory of Broadband Projects Website

 

Hello:

 

Last Thursday, at the FCC’s field hearing for the National Broadband Plan, on behalf of Indiana Commissioner Larry Landis, Chairman of the State Members of the Federal-State Joint Conference on Advanced Services (the Joint Conference is an advisory group to the FCC, established pursuant to Section 706 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996) I announced that we had activated a new website:  www.BroadbandBestPractices.org.   The State Members of the Joint Conference issued a press release on Friday that announced the website’s launch, see:  http://www.naruc.org/News/default.cfm?pr=163

 

The primary feature of the Joint Conference State Member’s website is the creation of a National Inventory of Broadband Projects and Programs, including descriptions of Lessons Learned.  The objective of the website design is for public and private broadband project managers and sponsors to voluntarily add details about their infrastructure projects and/or adoption programs to the Inventory.  All descriptions of broadband projects/programs can be edited and updated by the original authors or other participants as the projects/programs are completed or expanded.  The Joint Conference State Members believe that www.BroadbandBestPractices.org can provide a valuable data resource to federal, state and local broadband policymakers and to public and private organizations interested in developing new or expanding existing broadband infrastructure projects and adoption programs.

 

The Joint Conference State Members request that your organization assist in the promotion and use of www.BroadbandBestPractices.org by providing a notification to your membership on your website or through correspondence to your membership and by providing a cross-link button on your website.  The attachment provides a text design for the cross-link to the Joint Conference State Members’ website:  www.BroadbandBestPractices.org.

 

If you or your staff has any questions regarding our request, please contact my Policy Advisor, Cary Hinton, on (202) 626-9186 or by email at  chin...@psc.dc.gov.

 

Thank you.
