Accelerating Rural Broadband Deployment Act
This bill aims to speed up the process for companies to build broadband internet infrastructure, especially in rural areas. It requires federal agencies to quickly approve or deny requests to use federal land for this purpose, helping bring faster internet to more homes.
Key points
Federal agencies must decide on requests to build broadband on federal land within 60 days.
If an agency doesn't respond in 60 days, the request is automatically approved.
This speeds up getting permits needed to extend internet service, potentially reaching underserved areas faster.
