this time.

Current Update:Our teams have worked to pull away the debris within the
handhold structure and did not identify that are cables were damaged there
as we initially expected.We now have crews en route to a second location
where our utility locating crews have identified a cable strike. The
location of this damage is at Fairlakes Pkwy and Ripling Pond Dr.
Construction and splicers are headed to this location now to assess the
damage. We know this is an 864 ct cable at this location. Will have more
details on the amount of damage once our crews arrive on site.
