Subject: [AFMUG] FTTH and permits





A company deploying FTTH got all the buried infrastructure in, but has been 
moving the target date for hooking up customers from December to March to May 
to August. The reason they give prospective customers is permits. They say they 
got the permits to deploy in the ROW and utility easements but need permits to 
bury the drop cables to houses. 



Does this sound legit? I didn’t even realize you needed a permit to bury a 
cable in someone’s yard from their house to a handhole or flowerpot. Would this 
be a blanket permit to deploy in town, or a permit for each install? And could 
permitting really take 8 months?
