That's what I'm guessing as well... it's going to be a VERY large
bill... three different companies involved so far.

I don’t do aerial anymore, all underground. But back in the day I
built miles of aerial by my self. It is doable.

People ask why I don’t do fiber. The following story pretty much
sums it up. For those doing fiber, how do you do it with a 2 or 3
man team? We’d be run ragged. How do you stay sain?
Someone was logging up in Ogdensburg near Joe Hill and took a tree
down which took another tree down which took another tree down
which snapped off the side arms of the utility pole taking out the
powerlines which burned the fiber underneath it.
Last night about 11 o’clock I drove up there on my way home and
found the Crown Castle guys trying to figure out where the fiber
damage was, I talk to them for a moment and they were like yeah
it’s like 2500 feet away from here but we can’t figure out where
the fiber goes, I said follow me, so they got over there and
started work.
Zito was already over there fixing their fiber with about 10 guys
and five trucks.
I just spun back up there and as of this morning they (both
companies) are still trying to figure out why the fiber is not
working.
Add to this the utility easement is on the side of a mountain and
not right beside the road. These guys had entire teams and haven’t
fixed 1,500ft of fiber in 12 hours plus had to wait nearly 7hrs to
even access the local due to power lines down.
