    The Golden LEAF Rural Broadband Initiative (GLRBI) application from the North Carolina Department of Information Technology (NC DIT) received $37.5 million in funding from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP) rather than the originally requested $55.5 million. The funding will be used to expand broadband access across 45 counties in rural North Carolina by building over 1,300 miles of new fiber optic cable. This project aims to provide broadband access to over 3.7 million residents, 1.2 million households, over 587,000 households currently without access, over 140,000 businesses, and 1,683 K-12 schools across the state
