Consolidated Telecom announces plan for USDA grant (8/26/2010)
Consolidated Telecom officially announced its plans for federal funding during a presentation in Dickinson Wednesday morning, slow Internet speeds will be a thing of the past. About 1,300 households and 300 businesses in rural Dickinson, Gladstone, Belfield and Lefor will have access to high speed Internet and broadband services. Presently, several rural residents only have access to dial-up Internet at speeds of four MB per second, according to a USDA press release. When construction is completed, those customers will have voice, video and data services up to 100 MB per second. Consolidated received nearly $11.6 million. The project is slated to last about a year to two years, with the first rural customers receiving the new service starting at the end of next fall.
