Project Description

The proposal entails pulling back fiber to the existing Garkane pole (#4399) prior to the span, then directionally drilling an approximately 1-foot-in-width and 3-feet-in-depth trench across 100 feet of lands managed by BLM GSENM to an access vault southwest of the pole. This would enable the fiber optic cable within a 1.25-inch diameter conduit to be installed. An existing fiber runs down the highway and routes to the Calf Creek parking area at the bottom of the hill where a splice continues the route to Boulder, Utah. The proposed action would intercept and utilize the existing fiber route. The authorization would also include temporary additional width of 15 feet during the construction phase of the project only.
