<span style="background:white">Windstream has restored the system in one direction by rolling the system to the best available fibers between Genoa and Wisconsin River, WI. Due to excessive loss on the fiber spans because of the cold temperatures last night, it was determined by Field Operations that it was not safe to have splicers working on the poles. For today, the splicing contractor will go to two identified splice cases to investigate a possible ice intrusion, and an FDP panel will be replaced in Genoa pending MOP approval. Fiber testing will also take place between Coon Valley and Genoa, and also from Wisconsin River to Platteville. Service may experience intermittent trouble and is being monitored. There is no ETTR at this time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Basically a repeat from 12-30-2013. They are just going to roll a new bundle today to restore service. It “feels” like -40 out there, so hard to say how long this is going to take given the conditions.<o:p></o:p></p>
