Reasons for Exemption
The Project would consist of the installation of new small equipment, fiber optic cable, that would expand upon existing infrastructure and improve the broadband speeds. Additionally, the Project would use a bore to create minor channels to create space for the fiber optic cables along previously disturbed roadways. After the fiber optic cables are in place, the area would be backfilled, packed, and seeded with a plow to restore conditions.
