IIJA Direct Funding


Since the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law was passed, Nevada has received a significant amount of formula and discretionary (competitive) funding. For example, approximately 190,000 households across Nevada are receiving affordable high-speed internet as a direct result of BIL dollars.
There is continued opportunity to apply directly for grants to fund your project, including funding to support our rural communities and historically underserved populations. Let’s continue to make those critical investments needed for Nevada.
