Anchorage, AK. 99507 Dear Mr. Snell: General Communications, Inc. (GCI) and Alascom, Inc. dba AT&T Alascom (AT&T Alascom) formally request permission and authority to attach fiber optic communication transmission lines to all poles and towers owned and administered by AIDEA (or the Alaska Energy Authority) that comprise portions of the electrical intertie transmission line between Anchorage and Fairbanks. AT&T Alascom and GCI have already commissioned a study of the feasibility of the construction of a fiber optic telecommunications system from Anchorage to Fairbanks using the AIDEA and/or AEA poles and towers. The preliminary design study will form a basis for discussions of the estimated cost of installation, methods of attachments to the poles and towers, and maintaining the fiber optic lines. Based on the preliminary design study, a final project study, and a comprehensive business case, we believe that we should be able to agree on reasonable terms and conditions of a fiber optic interconnection. Please treat this as our official request for attachment to the poles and towers described above. We look forward to discussing this project with you at your earliest convenience.
