Specifications include, but are not limited to: Preliminary Route IdentificationCVFiber has identified a route through five towns for Area A’s 300 miles of construction to provide service to 150 miles of unserved and underserved addresses. Area A’s Phase 1 routes are the basis for current planning to procure funds and follow through on further design and construction activities. High-Level DesignAs part of our partnership with WEC and two other CUDs within the WEC service territory, it isexpected that a High-Level Design will be completed by fall 2021. In addition, it is considered likely that the same design firm will complete the High-Level Design and detailed design for the non-WEC portions of the CVFiber Community Network during the same period. These designs are the basis for completing our FTTP network. At this time, CVFiber does not believe it will need any additional high-level design work from our Operator. All material from the high-leveldesign will be made available to the Operator.Detailed Engineering Construction DesignA detailed engineering construction design will be completed for Area A’s 300-miles of roads. The selected Operator is expected to continue to work with and oversee the detailed engineering work from this firm for all future construction work. The Operator will be responsible for: a. reviewing the Area A’s detailed engineering construction design, b. seeking bids for construction,c. overseeing Area A’s Phase 1 construction, and d. Phase 2 construction work. Appendix F contains a description of our statement work for the detailed engineering construction design.
