DEERFIELD VALLEY - On Wednesday, July 15, the Deerfield Valley Communications Union District made a last-minute decision to enter into an agreement with Tilson Technology Management, a bidder for an upcoming federal reverse auction.
The reverse auction is called the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund, or RDOF. According to the FCC, the RDOF is the commission’s “next step in bridging the digital divide to efficiently fund the deployment of broadband networks in rural America.”
