Faster Broadband Deployment: Streamlined Wireless Infrastructure Approvals.

This act aims to speed up the construction and modernization of wireless internet infrastructure, such as cell towers. It means companies can get approvals for installing or modifying equipment more quickly, as some environmental and historical preservation review requirements will be simplified. As a result, citizens can expect faster access to better internet, especially in areas with poor current coverage.
Key points
Simplifies the permit process for building and upgrading wireless infrastructure.
Exempts certain projects from lengthy environmental and historical preservation reviews.
