State of Washington Interagency Agreement Updated August 2019 Department of Commerce Page 8 DocuSign Envelope ID: AE8E006C-3OA5-4332-AF1 E-D6ACDCECFAF7 Attachment A Scope of Work and Budget Department of Commerce, Washington State Broadband Office Washington State University Extension Broadband Action Team Implementation and Support Proposal Washington State University Extension (Extension) has a County Extension presence in every county in Washington, along with a Colville Tribal Extension office and other offices and operations. Extension has experience with the formation and support of Broadband Action Teams (BATS) at the local level, has participated in efforts to increase BAT capacity at a national level, and has previously entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Washington State Broadband Office (WSBO) to support BAT work in Washington. WSBO and Extension are desirous of expanding BAT activity across Washington, and to expanding equitable access, adoption and application of broadband technology. To provide capacity in collaboration with WSBO to support the implementation and advancement of Broadband Action Teams (BATs) and the capacity for digital equity at the local level across the State of Washington, Extension proposes the following areas of work: Broadband Action Team Support, and County and Tribal Nation DRAFT Digital Equity Plan Development. Broadband Action Team Support Assessment and Incentives: Some counties and federally recognized tribes already have mature BAT activity, some have nascent programs, and some are in need of help initiating a BAT project. It is important to assess the level of activity and need/demand for county -level and tribal -level support from both local Extension offices and WSBO. Tied directly to this variability is a need to incentivize BAT formation, operation, and "success." The effort to achieve these goals can be supported by Extension, if incentive structures can be provided by WSBO. WSU proposes that "success" for a BAT in terms of this project be defined as: Formation of an organized working group which inclusively represents the variety and breadth of interests regarding: ■ equitable broadband access, adoption, and application in each county and tribe completion of the 15 week "Missouri" BAT curriculum being finalized by the National Digital Education Extension Team (NDEET), and submission of a plan for enhanced broadband access and adoption in that county or tribe. Achievement of these milestones may entitle a BAT, in association with WSU, access to continued support, the ability to compete for limited grant funds, or other incentives as determined by WSBO. Organizational Structure: Extension will develop a cadre of Extension Broadband practitioners to support BAT formation and activity at the county, regional, tribal, and statewide levels. This cadre will be overseen by Extension leadership, and will be directly led by a State Broadband Coordinator. This State Broadband Coordinator will be supported by an Associate Coordinator who will provide subject -matter expertise. Eight Regional Coordinators will provide direct support to Extension County offices within their defined regions, will be qualified to provide the NDEET training, and will directly conduct BAT support activities within their DocuSign Envelope ID: AEK006C-30A54332-AF1E-D6ACDCECFAF7 Attachment A respective regions as necessary and appropriate per the willing partnership and invitation of the county or tribe. County Extension offices will provide logistics and administrative support. This project will include a specific evaluation component designed both to inform program development and adaptation for improvement, and to provide a culminating evaluative report of the project which can inform future BAT and digital equity work in Washington and elsewhere. Deliverables narrative: The heart of this work is local digital equity planning. SATs are a proven model for developing necessary momentum for communities to advance digital equity work and to close the digital divide. To this end, deliverables for this project include the support of existing BAT efforts, and the initial offer of the formation of a BAT in each county and federally recognized tribe which does not currently have an active BAT', the development of a regional BAT support structure, delivery of the NDEET curriculum and support for the development and submission of a county or tribal BAT plan for each county or tribe. All county and tribal BATs will be supported by this project over the term of the project with a combination of local, regional and state -level Extension resources. The project goal is to develop sufficient local support structure to establish a sustainable, productive BAT in each county and tribe, as evidenced by the "success" factors defined above. Each BAT should, to the maximum extent practicable, have representation from public and private organizations, communities representing people of color, social services delivery organizations, schools, health care providers, representation from Tribal Nations, representatives from the hearing impaired and disability communities as well as representatives from the elderly community and representatives from migrant and refugee communities. WSU Extension will conduct, in consultation with WSBO, a questionnaire of each of the 39 counties and 29 Federally recognized tribal nations to gauge their interest in participating in this BAT program, in developing draft digital equity plans, and their interest in utilizing the WSBO resources that provide economic assessment of proposed projects as well as grant -writing assistance provided by third party vendors. As a means to add further value to BAT program participants and other interested attendees, Extension, in partnership with WSBO and the Office of Equity, will work to convene and facilitate up to two digital equity webinars that are optional for all BATS and other attendees. Webinars will share updates about current and future digital equity planning efforts at the state level, sharing best and promising practices and resources, case studies of broadband projects planned, underway and completed, and training as available. These webinars will be required for recipients of the competitive funding grants to support digital equity planning. Funding recipients will be required to actively engage in these webinars. See next area of work for details on funding recipients. ' For those counties and tribes where after good faith attempts a BAT cannot be formed, a regional BAT comprised of multiple counties, or subdivisions of particular counties, may be used. DocuSign Envelope ID: AE8E006C-30A5-4332-AF1E-D6ACDCECFAF7 BAT Deliverables Questionnaire: In consultation with WSBO, develop, distribute, collect and categorize results of a questionnaire that will be sent to each of 39 counties and 29 Federally recognized tribal nations. BAT status report: summary of outreach efforts and activities to date in each county and federally recognized tribe. Include progress on completion of NDEET training to all BATs. BAT status report: final report of outreach efforts and activities to date in each county and federally recognized tribe. Include progress on completion of NDEET training to all BATs. WSU Extension will provide contacts for those who are leading each BAT. Digital Equity Webinars: In partnership with WSBO and the Office of Equity, convene and facilitate up to two digital equity webinars that are optional for all BATS and other attendees but are required for recipients of the competitive funding grants to support digital equity planning. Funding recipients will be required to actively engage in these webinars. Impact Measure the anticipated participation in: ■ BAT program ■ WSBO resources for: o economic assessment of proposed projects o grant -writing assistance • competitive application for local digital equity planning funds Demonstrate partnership with counties and tribes to support and/or augment their local BAT efforts. Describe how the efforts and engagement of WSU Extension helped to advance BAT formation and effectiveness in counties and tribes within Washington state. Provide contact information so WSBO can continue supporting this work. Deliver value to BATs, funding awardees, future potential funding applicants, providers, utilities and others regarding ongoing digital equity work in Washington state.
