The Washington County Commissioners Court received formal notices from Industry Telephone Company about planned fiber service installations along county right‑of‑way in Precinct 4.
County staff described the Moy Road extension as approximately 7,500 feet of fiber with four new handholds, placed with 7–14 feet between the edge of roadway and property fences. The Bascom Lane work was reported as an extension off the Moy Road installation, approximately 8,900 feet with seven proposed handholds and service access for about 10 residences.
Staff said they had verified the proposed handhold locations and the planned clearances and reported no expected conflicts with landowners or the roadway.

Staff indicated coordination with the company on placement to minimize impacts and to serve rural residences.
Commissioners acknowledged the notices and moved on to other business.
