The Oklahoma Broadband Office is issuing this Request for Information to improve the proposed Network Expansion Territory boundaries, which the OBO will utilize to make BEAD awards. The office is seeking feedback from interested parties on 8 topics: which locations belong within which NETs, accurate Net Present Values (NPV) for each NET, severing NETs to make them more economically feasible, an eligible entities interest in applying for certain NETs, an eligible entities partial interest in applying for certain NETs, NETs that an eligible entity considers non-viable, combining multiple NETs, or other.

Click the link below to access the interactive map that shows the proposed NET Boundaries, BEAD Eligible Locations within each NET, the NET ID, cumulative NPV for each NET and the BSL ID for each potentially eligible location. RFI Participants may download the CSV data, KMZ, or ESRI Shapefiles that correspond to the map which include the data points previously mentioned. Participants may then respond to the RFI by using the said data and map to fill out the provided templates.

To submit an RFI response, click the link below labeled "Create a Request for Information", fill out the contact information and select the RFI type. Templates are available for download after the RFI type is selected within the form. Using the file downloads, participants may also manipulate the proposed NETs using their own software to fill out the RFI templates. Please note, some RFI types may not require a template to be filled out.

• File containing a list of net IDs and their estimated NPVs: nets.csv
• Shapefile containing boundaries of all NETs (ESRI Shapefile format): nets.zip
• Shapefile containing boundaries of all NETs (KMZ format for Google Earth): nets.kmz
• File containing list of community anchor institutions (CAIs) and associated NET ID: cais.csv
• File containing a list of locations (non-CAI) and associated NET ID: locations.csv

The RFI window is now closed. OBO is processing your inputs and will finalize the NET boundaries. Thank you for your participation.
