HOUSTON Natchez Trace EPA General Manager Shawn Edmondson said this week the electrical cooperative will receive a $10.3 million federal subsidy to help provide its service area in Webster and Chickasaw Counties with broadband internet access.
Efforts to reach that goal are bearing fruit; the EPA has recently provided internet service about 150 customers, and that number is growing every day, Edmondson said.

The subsidy is part of $91 million approved for use by nine northeast Mississippi electric power companies for internet access, according to information from Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley.
