FirstLight is Building More Fiber in Western Maine!
FirstLight has received federal funding through the Maine Connectivity Authority (MCA) to build fiber in the remainder of its Maine-based Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (ILEC) territory over a five-year period.
FirstLight’s Maine ILEC encompasses parts of Western Maine, including Albany Township, Andover, Bethel, Bryant Pond, Buckfield, Canton, Hartford, Hebron, Locke Mills, Mason Township, Minot, Newry, North Norway, North Turner, Roxbury Pond, Sumner, Turner, Upton, West Bethel, West Paris, and Woodstock.
Through the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) charged MCA with developing a Broadband Action Plan as a roadmap for distributing the state’s $271.9 million BEAD funding allocation. The program authorizes the MCA to work with partnering organizations to extend broadband service to all locations in Maine that do not currently have minimal upload and download speeds.
FirstLight has finalized an agreement with the MCA to receive funding to build more than 450 miles of fiber to provide Internet service in our Western Maine service territory. Construction began in November 2024 and will continue through 2028.
