Native Village of Chenega (a/k/a Chanega)

Chenega’s project aims to serve residents by the end of 2022 with the proposed solution, but the community has selected this solution for its ability to be scaled and integrated with evolving advanced services over time with 5G technology. Once fiber is available to the community, the existing infrastructure and equipment can be utilized to readily accept it.

• Outcome 1: Implementation of timely, effective, affordable, and readily available broadband infrastructure on Tribal lands that will be Tribally owned and controlled supporting Tribal sovereignty.
• Outcome 2: Upon completion and set up of the Tribally owned broadband infrastructure, the community will gain access to a level of connectivity they have never experienced. The outcomes of this connectivity may not be seen immediately, but we anticipate the benefits of broadband access will be evident in improved health services, educational resources, economic development, and social connections within 12 months of deployment.
