With NTIA funding, the Blue Lake Rancheria’s Planning, Engineering, Feasibility, and Sustainability Studies and Infrastructure Deployment project will consist of the engineering and design of a resilient 2.2-mile, 48-strand Fiber loop encompassing BLR contiguous trust lands, along with a single 2.5 GHz spectrum radio broadcast location. The project will also construct a 1700-foot section of the middle mile fiber and deploy the 2.5 GHz spectrum for the entire service area, providing broadband speeds with a minimum of 25/3 Mbps with a latency of less than 100 ms to 45 unserved Tribal households, 15 unserved Tribal community anchor institutions, and 8 unserved Tribal businesses.
