I haven't followed CALEA-for-ISPs for a few years, but at least when it 
was initially required, dark fiber providers won't need to comply with 
CALEA.  They're not providing network service.   -lit- fiber providers 
would because they're either providing network or telecom service....but 
they generally wouldn't do it at the physical layer.
