[outages] Northern VA fiber outage

[Hillyard, Chad]

Just got an update that they have re-spliced the last of the 36 cables and are going to begin closing things up out there. Took them until about 2am to get the cable exposed as apparently it was under the parkway and had been damaged pretty heavily by the drill. The whole section needed to be replaced. We've been looking good here for a few hours.

"Dear Valued Zayo Customer, There are 36 ribbons on this fiber.Ribbons 34,35,36 are complete (note Ribbon 34 had light on a fiber pair so it was restored as well). All ribbons with customer traffic per the VA-B27 Impact report have been completed. The ETR is within the hour. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience."

We're still OOS. Seems they are having issues exposing enough fiber to begin the splicing operation.
