A Fireflies representative (speaker 7) outlined the company's sequencing for construction and make-ready work in two new service zones in Campbell County. "We'll end up with, 1,400 and, 5 passings in this new area and expect to connect about 7 50 folks," the representative said, describing how the zone split will support more accurate customer communications.
The speaker detailed make-ready coordination with APCO Electric, noting three remaining 50-pole proposals and an expectation the largest make-ready packages will take 130'200 crew hours (approximately 3.5 to 5 weeks each). Fireflies said they expect some South Side work to lag by a month or six weeks because of late attachment agreements, but they plan parallel underground work to keep schedules moving.
