Recording Available: Prevailing Wage Requirements for Broadband Grants
Last week, the Oregon Broadband Office (OBO) and the Bureau of Labor and Industry (BOLI) held a joint webinar to explain how prevailing wage relates to the Broadband Deployment Program (BDP, ARPA CPF). For those who were unable to attend, please watch the YouTube recording of the Prevailing Wage webinar with BOLI.
The LOC is working with the OBO to establish additional opportunities to provide a similar webinar in the next few months and will provide that information soon. Additionally, resources regarding the Broadband Deployment Program (BDP) and links to the OBO website are below.
