Funding
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Broadband funds were allocated by the Oglala Sioux Tribal Council to start up broadband operations on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
ARPA Broadband has flexible implementation guidance to deliver Internet services to the people. The Oglala Sioux Tribe organized Oglala Lakota Telecommunications, Limited Liability Company (OLT, LLC) under Tribal law to deliver these important technology services.
