Project Info

Title
Digital 299 Broadband Project
Description
Vero Fiber Networks, LLC proposes to install approximately 300 miles of new conduit and fiber optic cables to provide internet to unserved or underserved communities in northern California. The Project route generally follows the State Route 299 corridor through Trinity, Shasta, and Humboldt counties. Conduit would be installed within pre-disturbed road shoulders. The Project also includes the construction of up to five small regeneration buildings (ILA buildings) placed along the route. Some last-mile connections would be attached to utility poles during a second phase of the Project. The Project crosses lands and waters managed by the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, California Public Utilities Commission, California Department of Transportation, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, State Lands Commission, State Water Resources Control Board, and Hoopa Reservation. These agencies have collaborated to leverage a joint Environmental Assessment/Initial Study Mitigated Negative Declaration (EA/ISMND) and associated technical studies to demonstrate compliance and support their separate decisions and permits.
