What is FirstNet?

 The Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network (NPSBN) is intended to provide a reliable, secure broadband services network for First Responders  FirstNet provides LTE service, with priority and preemption, to public safety users throughout all of the United States and Territories  What opting-in means for AT&T in California:

‒ AT&T allowed to buildout Band 14 in California

‒ AT&T plans to build hundreds of new sites through 2027

‒ Each agency can choose AT&T for FirstNet mobile data needs, or select a different wireless broadband service provider

Slide 5

Role of Cal OES

• Facilitate information-sharing between local agencies and

FirstNet/AT&T

• Work with County/Operational Areas and AT&T to identify

coverage needs

• Focus on multi-jurisdictional planning for emergency

communications during disasters or other major events

• The California Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan (SCIP) has

been approved and posted to Cal OES website

• Provide ESF-2 Communications support in the State Operations

Center (SOC)

• The health of commercial cellular networks is of increasing interest. The

health of the FirstNet system is of critical importance.

Slide 7

Next Steps

• Cal OES will continue collaboration efforts via:

‒ Monthly meetings with AT&T ‒ Quarterly meetings with FirstNet ‒ Meetings with operational areas

• Continue to provide ESF-2 Communications support in the

State Operations Center (SOC)

• Upcoming CalFRN Board Meetings

‒ December 12, 2018, 1:00-3:00 PM

Q&A/Thank you!

Created By: Long Term Goals Task Force Presented By: Robert Tse, USDA

7 Key Objectives Status & Future Recommendations

Long Term Goals Task Force

Charter

Purpose To re-establish the charter of the California Broadband Council and provide strategic direction to achieve long term goals. Goal Create a strategic plan with goals and objectives that establish the priorities of the California Broadband Council through the next administration. Members

• California Emerging Technology Fund
• California Public Utilities Commission
• California State Library
• SoCal Tribal Chairman’s Association
• US Department of Agriculture

Meetings Monthly

Goals

The goals of the California Broadband Council and its supporting task forces are to establish

broadband access at 98% and broadband adoption to 90% by 2023,

ultimately eliminating the Digital Divide.

Economic Impact

• Studies indicate expanding access from zero broadband providers to

1-3 providers positively impacted employment growth and establishment in the US by 6%. 1

• The relationship between GDP growth and broadband penetration

rate: Increasing broadband penetration by 10% is correlated with a 1.21% increase in the average growth rate of developed country economies over that time period. 1

• Impact of spending on broadband adoption: scaling up adoption

program to reach 1% of CA households would cost $1.20 per capita, Scaling up digital skills and literacy program to reach 1% would cost $0.62 per capita. This investment could translate into a $475 growth in GDP per capita. 1

• 1. Reference: Update: Closing the Digital Divide – A Historic and Economic Justification for

Government Intervention, May 2018

Key Objectives Accomplishments

2008 Key Objectives 2018 CBC Accomplishments Highlights

• 1. Build out high speed broadband

infrastructure to all Californians

Achieved 97.5%

• 2. Develop model permitting standards

and encourage collaboration among providers.

Established key deliverables to share models of success throughout the state

• 3. Increase the use and adoption of

broadband and computer technology

Surplus Equipment Task Force Kicked off a Pilot 'Tech Fair' distributing 140+ computers to the underserved and shortened the time to community by 4 week. This program is scalable.

• 4. Engage and reward broadband

innovation and research

Champions of Technology Awards established in partnership with the California State Fair

• 5. Create a statewide e-heath network

350 sites established PUC requested CETF to dedicate $5M to telehealth CTN receives $400M/year and is over subscribed

• 6. Leverage educational opportunities to

increase broadband use

School to Home Initiative Regional Consortia Training

• 7. Continue state-level and statewide

leadership

Successfully submitted comments to the USDA's e- Connectivity Pilot Project to influence program criteria and funding for California.

Future Recommendations

“Create a policy amendment for AB1665 to establish the minimum bandwidth upload and download speeds at 25:1.5 necessary to support 21st century learning in 2019.” “Continue to prioritize Tribal lands by establishing a cadence for consultations requesting standard questions/information, including information regarding broadband access and resources, to ensure appropriate resources and funding for Tribes.”

MEETING OF THE MINDS

“Convene all stakeholders, including State Agencies, ISPs, Local Governments, CPUC, and Regional Consortia to explore potential for reaching agreement on accelerating deployment of advanced communications networks.”

NETWORK BROADBAND AND TECHNOLOGY

“Meet and confer with the California Technology Caucus to enlist legislative support and provide updates

access and adoption .” DIG ONCE to DO ONCE: “Request all related State Agencies to align goals and

• ptimize the incorporation of broadband in an Action
