- A. The EHCT will be determined based on funding requirements for actual subgrant proposals received in the state of Louisiana. The GUMBO 2.0 EHCT mechanism therefore will permit the office, pursuant to BEAD rules, to select certain non-FTTH applications instead of FTTH if the overall result is to expand the number of eligible locations receiving access to at least reliable broadband service to the extent doing so fully with priority projects proves impossible based on actual subgrant proposals received.
- B. The office may set the final EHCT value at a level above the per-location cost of all awarded FTTH applications for purposes of Final Proposal submission.
