For a growing number of comments, BroadbandCensus.com has provided a brief summary of the contents of the comment.* **Editor’s Note (4/16)** – This BroadbandCensus.com List of NTIA Comments Filed April 13 has been updated to include substantive comments on the broadband stimulus filed at the NTIA on April 13, the final day for submission – included those filed on the NTIA web site after 8:11 p.m. BroadbandCensus.com aims to create a new page with substantive comments filed at any time during the course of the rule-making, including those filed before April 13. WASHINGTON, April 14, 2009 – The Obama Administration’s broadband grants program attracted extraordinary attention on Monday, as at least 427 companies, individuals and organizations filed comments with the Commerce Department’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration. The mad rush to finish line was driven the agency’s April 13 deadline for comments about the way that NTIA, and the Agriculture Department’s Rural Utilities Service, should administer $7.2 billion in broadband-related grants and loans. With the latest comment posted on the web site as of 8:11 p.m. on Monday, the 427 comments represents almost one-third of the approximately 1,400 questions and comments that have been received by the agency and posted online, beginning March 10, 2009\. [http://www.ntia.doc.gov/broadbandgrants/comments.cfm](http://www.ntia.doc.gov/broadbandgrants/comments.cfm?ref=broadbandbreakfast.com) As part of BroadbandCensus.com’s ongoing coverage of the broadband stimulus, reporters and correspondents for BroadbandCensus.com have systematically reviewed comments filed with the NTIA. This collection represents a first cut of the organizations and individuals offering substantive comments about the implementation of the program. Individual form letters have been excluded, as have letters or comments that bear resemblance to many, previous comments. Many of the filings by organizations and companies are listed under the name of the individual filing them, and are therefore hard to pick out of the NTIA’s web site. Both the uniqueness of the concerns, and the significance of the entity filing, are the primary factors in BroadbandCensus.com’s selection of these comments from among the list of those that have filed. The filings are listed in alphabetical order. *Ed. Note (4/16) – Individuals with questions about this list should e-mail Cody Williams, williams@broadbandcensus.com.* #### The BroadbandCensus.com List of Comments 71 Concerned Economists, Using
