MBCI intends to better utilize our existing fiber-optic infrastructure and gain control of all available 2.5 GHz spectrum to increase access to broadband in all 8 tribal communities to allow first responders, essential government employees, health care providers, and students to be able to function despite COVID19 quarantine policies.

Food systems resources currently exist on the Spirit Lake Indian Reservation, but a collaborative and structured community project to leverage these resources and pursue market opportunities does not currently exist. We will establish a community-wide food systems project to leverage existing resources and reduce economic leakage from the current system.

Nez Perce Tribe has been highly successful in bringing broadband to the Reservation as a utility service thought he Tribal Government. The 2.5 GHz opportunity gives us the ability to provide increased bandwidth that wouldn't otherwise be available in our current fixed wireless infrastructure.
