AI Contract Overview

Frontier Communications plans to deploy approximately 40,208 linear feet of underground fiber-optic broadband cable within existing public road rights-of-way in the Alturas area of Modoc County, California, to replace outdated copper telecommunications infrastructure. The project is divided into five non-contiguous segments located along Buck Lane, Hat Mountain Road, County Road 54, County Road 76, and County Road 260, with construction methods primarily involving horizontal directional drilling and trenching, supplemented by bore pits and utility pole connections where needed. Each segment has defined start and end points along specific road intersections, ensuring the new fiber network connects key areas without requiring new easements or extensive road disruptions. The work aims to enhance broadband reliability and speed for residents and businesses in the region by leveraging existing public infrastructure. The project is formally identified as Frontier Project 5288532 and was posted as a forecast on July 30, 2026, under the oversight of Modoc County. Primary point of contact for the county is Sean Curtis, Interim Planning Director, while Greg Bordelon of Frontier Communications serves as the company’s engineering liaison. The initiative is focused exclusively on upgrading telecommunications capacity within established county rights-of-way, avoiding new land use or environmental disturbances. The full scope and precise technical specifications are detailed in Attachment A – Project Description, which outlines the methodology, material standards, and alignment of each segment. All work is designed to be minimally invasive, using existing utility corridors and infrastructure connections to streamline deployment and reduce long-term maintenance needs.

Full Description

See Attachment A Project Description for a detailed description of the proposed project. Frontier proposes to install approximately 40,208 linear feet of underground fiber-optic broadband cable within existing County road rights-of-way in the Alturas area of Modoc County. The project consists of five non-contiguous segments located along Buck Lane, Hat Mountain Road, County Road 54, County Road 76, and County Road 260. Construction will primarily utilize horizontal direction drilling (HDD)and trenching, with associated bore pits and utility pole connections where necessary. The project will replace existing copper telecommunications infrastructure with fiber-optic facilities to improve broadband and communication services. The project includes the following work areas: Location 1: Approximately 6,615 linear feet along County Road 260, beginning approximatelyg0 feet north of the intersection of County Road 60 and County Road 260 at a proposed utility pole, extending south and then west along County Road 260, and terminating at an existing utility pole approximately 170 feet north of the intersection of County Road 250 and County Road 251. Location 2: Approximately \5,L4O linear feet along County Road 54, beginning approximately 330 feet west of the intersection of County Road 60 and County Road 54 and extending east to approximately 255 feet west of the intersection of County Road 76 and County Road 54. Location 3: Approximately 6,883 linear feet beginning approximately 200 feet west of the intersection of County Road 54 and County Road 76, extending west before turning north along County Road 76, and terminating approximately 1,310 feet east of the intersection of Pit River Road and County Road 76. Location 4: Approximately 1,020 linear feet beginning at the intersection of County Road 76 and Buck Lane, extending north along Buck Lane to its terminus. Location 5: Approximately 10,550 linear feet beginning at the intersection of County Road 75 and Hat Mountain Road, extending north along Hat Mountain Road, crossing to the opposite side of the roadway, and continuing north to the end of Hat Mountain Road. The project is designed to upgrade Frontier's existing telecommunications network by replacing aging copper facilities with fiber-optic infrastructure, providing improved broadband service while utilizing existing public road rights-of-way.
