About Us
We are a Regional Broadband Consortium (RBC) funded by the California Public Utilities Commission to facilitate broadband deployment in Marin, Mendocino, Napa, and Sonoma Counties. In 2010, Governor Schwarzenegger signed Senate Bill 1040 establishing the California Advanced Services Fund Consortia Grant Account, which provides funding to Urban and Rural Regional Broadband Consortia (RBC) to facilitate broadband deployment and advance broadband adoption in unserved and underserved areas.
There are 14 active RBCs that cover most of the State of California. We work collaboratively with each other, with state agencies including the California Public Utilities Commission and the California Emerging Technology Fund. RBCs also work closely with their Counties, Cities, and community organizations including libraries.
NBNCBC and other RBCs also are active in programs to promote digital equity, affordability and adoption within our territories.
Our Memorandum of Understanding can be found here.
