Re: haha They wouldent dig up the fiber, the vrad would just get converted to a fibewr splice cabnet, and if need be, the vrad removed entirly, and just a burried access vault, that are near most vrads anyways be put in. The biggest cost right now would be the conduit between each pedistal. I just taked to a buddy i have at T and theres an area they has gotten the copper stolen so many times, they even hired security guards to atch that section, the thiefs waited out the guards aftera month, and stole it again. AT&T finaly decided to put the wire in conduit. at the tune of $10,000 dollars.
T needs to start now running the fiber while labor's cheep and possably materials as well, before inflation hits. They gotta start eventually, the longer the wait the more expensive its gonna get when the enonomy rebounds and labor isent as cheep, and there still subs to hold on to. | |

Or nobody notices there is no utility company name on the side of your cherry picker?
I think it would be pretty easy for the cops to look up through the DMV every cherry picker owned by a small business or private individual in a 50 mile radius. | |
| from how de described it, the line was buried, but a creek ran over a section of it and kept exposing it, and they would rip that up all the way till it starts to go back up a pole. i havent gone by there to see exactly how/what yet. | |
