Fiber Installation - Grid Improvement Project

We use a contractor, MasTec, to install fiber optic cable on our existing overhead power lines and into our existing underground electric corridors. The crews are currently working in the Livermore, Waverly, Wellington, and Bellvue areas. You may see bucket trucks and crews with boring equipment in your area as we work on this project throughout our entire service territory. We will only operate in our right-of-way; if we do not have proper access, we will work with members to gain access. Learn more about this project.
