(9) “Community Anchor Institution” or “CAI” means an entity such as a school, library, health clinic, health center, hospital or other medical provider, public safety entity, institution of higher education, public housing organization, or community support organization that facilitates greater use of broadband service by vulnerable populations, including, but not limited to, low-income individuals, unemployed individuals, children, and aged individuals.
(17) “Enforceable commitment” means a National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) classification for locations that are receiving broadband infrastructure buildouts from federal or state programs excluding BEAD. Such locations are considered served by these programs and are therefore ineligible for BEAD funding.
(37) “Subgrantee” means an internet service provider (ISP) that has been awarded a portion of Arkansas' federal BEAD grant to build broadband infrastructure for a given area of the state. For non-deployment projects, a subgrantee may be a non-profit organization, unit of local government, business, or other entity awarded a portion of BEAD funding to implement non-deployment initiatives.
