Project Description

Construction and maintenance of a new fiber optic telecommunication cable and appurtenances designed to upgrade existing facilities serving subscribers from Bluff to Mexican Hat, Utah. The proposed route would begin approximately a tenth of a mile east of mile post (MP) 25 on US Highway 163/Main Street on the west side of Bluff, Utah and proceeds west and southwest mostly in a Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) ROW for approximately twenty-five (25) miles before entering Navajo Nation Tribal Lands at Mexican Hat. The line would extend an additional four miles south to the community of Halchita where it would terminate. The project alignment is within a BLM designated utility corridor or follows Highway 163 within a UDOT ROW.
