Monthly Report – December 2016

Fiber Network

Growth continues on the fiber network. In 2016 we added 396 customers to the network accounting for approximately a 20% increase in our customer base. SandyNet staff has been working diligently to keep up with the demand for service.

Weather has caused delays for construction this month which is putting us behind on getting customers connected again. This is very frustrating but unfortunately outside of our control, water is an essential component in underground construction and when temperatures dip below freezing it is a risk to our crew and our equipment to perform construction tasks. We are looking forward to temperatures getting back in the 40s and 50s.

MDU Deployment

We have sent a proposal for construction to an MDU property in Sandy that we would like to start or G.Fast deployment with. We are waiting to hear back from them for approval but hope to have this site deployed in January or February (weather permitting).

Urban Renewal District

This project has been awarded and construction is set to start in the second or third week of January. Again, construction of this nature is heavily influenced by weather, so delays may be in store if nature does not cooperate with our plans.
