The projects will be supported by more than $44 million in federal American Rescue Plan funding, administered by the North Carolina Department of Information Technology (NCDIT), along with over $19 million from selected broadband providers.
In Harnett County, Spectrum Southeast, LLC has been chosen as the broadband provider and will provide high-speed internet to 300 homes and businesses across the county (7.87% of the county’s 3,810 eligible locations).
“North Carolinians’ need access to high-speed internet to connect them with friends and family, business opportunities, telehealth, and more,” said Governor Josh Stein in a press release. “Broadband is key 21st Century infrastructure, and these partnerships between counties across the state and internet providers will help connect more North Carolinians.”
