Project Description

This is a new Right-of-Way (ROW) application for installing a fiber optic cable (communication line) on approximately 0.57 acres of BLM Land within Interstate Highway 80. This project proposes to place a underground communication line within the existing Highway 80 ROW using a horizontal directional drilling and trenching where needed. The proposed construction disturbed footprint ROW area is 1650 ft long X 15 ft wide X 4 ft deep. 
This Middle-Mile Broadband Network (MMBN) project will install the broadband infrastructure along the State Highway System (SHS) and Interstate System necessary to connect to a third-party operated Last Mile Broadband Network which will bring internet connectivity to homes, businesses, and community institutions.
Preliminary determination of no adverse effect to historic properties.
