Document Description: The purpose of the project is to provide telephone and broadband service capability to existing residences in the Godfrey Ranch area. This project is needed because residents are currently unable to use cell phones, satellite, or radio because Godfrey Ranch is remotely located; and currently there are no land-based telephone services. The project would bring communication services to a remote area of Siskiyou County by providing land-based telephone service to residences. Siskiyou Telephone Company intends to provide telephone and broadband service capability to residences in the Godfrey Ranch area. The project would be constructed under a grant to Siskiyou Telephone Company from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).
