Tribal Broadband Convening 1
September 12, 2022
|
The New Mexico Tribal Broadband Convening is part of a multi-year effort to support internet for all in rural New Mexico. The first took place September 12, 2022, at Hotel Andaluz, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and will focus on funding opportunities, data and mapping requirements, and building a broadband network to provide high-speed affordable internet offerings in your tribal community. This convening is reserved for tribal leaders and their designated staff only. We are hopeful to include as many IT staff and other tribal broadband teams as possible. Due to limited seating, consultants and vendors cannot be accommodated at this time. For attendees driving more than a 60-mile radius of Albuquerque, complimentary lodging was available on Sunday, September 11, 2022, at Hotel Andaluz in downtown Albuquerque.

Map Handouts and Mapping and Data Resources
Benchmark data gathered from multiple federal sources has been compiled into geospatial data displays. Although these maps were drafted by EDAC for tribes in the state of New Mexico in September 2022 and were compiled using nationally-recognized, "authoritative" data, we expect these maps may NOT be 100 percent accurate, yet have been included to provide a benchmark "snapshot" of the FCC's view of our communities, so we may actively challenge the data in order to increase eligibility for future funding opportunities at both the federal and state levels.
We encourage Tribal communities to access and explore the state data maps for inaccuracies and opportunities for challenging the federal location data "fabric." First Step: Access the FCC Data Location Fabric https://help.bdc.fcc.gov/hc/en-us/articles/5377509232283-How-Broadband-Service-Providers-Can-Access-the-Location-Fabric The Fabric license is free and Government Entities and ISPs should register to access the FCC Fabric. Tribal owned telcos should request the Tribal version of the license agreement from the FCC’s vendor CostQuest. Tribal governments with tribally-operated ISPs should register as a Tribal ISP. The FCC is available to set up a video call to assist with the process and answer any questions. To request one-on-one support please send an email to broadbanddatainquiries@fcc.gov. The New Mexico Pilot Grant opened in August 2022 and will accept proposals in three waves: September 23, 2022; December 9, 2022; and February 27, 2023. The New Mexico Pilot Grant Interactive Broadband Map delineates unserved and undeserved areas. Areas not designated as unserved or underserved may still be eligible for funding if applicants can provide fact-based evidence that the proposed funded service area meet the Pilot Program’s definition of unserved or underserved. Please see the NOFO regarding the official definition of unserved and underserved. Link
