Merit Network Inc. gets $69.6 million under the grants announced last week. It's for service in the Upper Peninsula, northern Lower Peninsula and parts of Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Bloomingdale Communications Inc. gets $5.6 million for service in southwestern Michigan, and Michigan State gets $6.1 million for work in south-central lower Michigan.
