Stowe Derby a blast, again
To the Editor:

Unfortunately, no matter what else the stimulus bill may or may not have done, it’s slowed down the rate of broadband deployment in the U.S. over the last year. The Rural Utility Service (part of the U.S. Agriculture Department) and NTIA (part of the U.S. Commerce Department) have awarded only 15 percent of the first round money they promised to make available. To be blunt, they failed in their mission. They are now poised to compound that failure with an absurd deadline of March 15 for second-round applications prior to availability of first-round results.
