No state has issued awards to ISPs yet. The NTIA has awarded "planning money" to state broadband offices to set up the program and review applications.

Only a few states have completed the application phase shown by the right most column on cost quest's dashboard linked below. Side note - cost quest is another example of government funding making a private company rich.

Thank you. How many of these ISPs are small businesses?

Colorado posted a summary on their state office website and characterized the applicants at a high level:
