During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the ongoing lease agreement between AT&T and the U.S. government concerning the Tenguisan area, which includes critical infrastructure for communication cables. The meeting featured a detailed presentation of maps and slides illustrating the geographical layout of the area, including the old Tengisan power plant and the AT&T cable station.

The lease, originally executed in 1962, has undergone several amendments over the years, with the most recent extension concluding in October 2012. The amendments have allowed for the expansion of the leased area to facilitate the installation and maintenance of an underground communication coaxial tie cable linking AT&T's facility to the Harman Telephone exchange.

Key points highlighted during the presentation included the visibility of several exposed cables along the shoreline, which have been affected by wave action. The discussion also touched on the need for cleanup of an old subsurface communication cable in the vicinity.

Officials emphasized the importance of understanding the geographical context of the lease, as it impacts both the local environment and communication infrastructure. The meeting concluded with a commitment to further review the detailed maps and additional slides attached to the lease for a comprehensive understanding of the area’s significance.
