Once the two Manholes that were damaged by fire are repaired, they too will be inspected and cleared for cable replacement. These two manholes are scheduled to be inspected and cleared by late evening on 29th Sep 2016. Once inspection is done; the fiber crews will be able to enter the man hole to start performing fiber restoration. At this time, there is no ETR for fiber repairs to be completed.
