 Any more situations like that, please don't hesitate to stop me. So, I just want to touch base about CBFiber. Most of you know who we are. We use no town tax dollars. That's a critical aspect of us. We are also volunteer driven as I'll talk about in a minute. What our purpose is to provide a minimum access to 100 over 100. That means 100 millibits per second down and 100 up. That kind of service is rather unique these days. But the intention is to make CBFiber somewhat futureproof by making this type of service, this symmetrical service by making this our minimum. And we will build up from there. We will also be offering 500, 1 gig and 2 big symmetrical service. And having symmetrical service is actually extremely important, especially if you're doing anything that transfers pictures, zoom meetings. If you had a gig service, you could have multiple zoom meetings going on at the same time, multiple family members, you could be doing online classes that require uploading and downloading it while you're in the class, any kind of medical imagery, anything that requires imagery to be back and forth on the internet, the higher your service speed, the more reliable that's going to be and the better quality you're going to have. So 100, 100 is the minimum of what we are going to provide. I'm going to talk about some of the big questions today, and I'm going to tell you what I know for sure. I'm going to start with who we are, talk about when folks are going to start getting high speed internet from CBFiber, and I'm going to talk about what it's going to cost. First of all, I promise this is the most horrible slide in the deck, but I wanted those folks that are part of our team to see that they're recognized even though I'm not going to name everybody. But what's really important here is that we are volunteers, we are volunteer-based, and with this volunteer base, we are moving this organization that includes our partnership and our contractors and of course our executive director and treasurer. But what's really important here is the size of the team, the community that we've built with our partners, which is absolutely amazing. And then the fact that this volunteer team is leveraging the work of contractors from multiple disciplines and making sure that everybody has their oars in the water at the same time and we're all working together. And so far that's been happening for us and we're going to continue to work in that way. Moving the plan, moving forward here is very straightforward. It's similar to what we said in the last webinar. We are going to design, construct, we're going to test, we're going to go live, and we're going to install. And we're going to do it in that order. I have on the map here are 24 design areas that we call them DAs. We are starting up in the 12 o'clock region, if you will, where the two DAs, the brown and the green DA is where we're going to start. And our intention is to start construction in the next few weeks. We're going to test and go live at the turn of the year and we're going to start installations in January. We're going to go into each of these in a little bit more details in a minute, but a couple of things I'd like to point out. One is that each DA is approximately 50 miles of fiber. So what we're looking at for this year to construct is 100 miles of fiber, right? We're hanging fiber where it doesn't currently exist. The other part of this that's important is that it's going to take time. Building all of these DAs is going to take time. We're going to start in the two DAs that are highlighted within the box. And then we're going to go down one side of the clock and the other side of the clock. And we're going to be moving as fast as money and access will allow us to move. But consider this, a construction crew does about a mile a day. Those two DAs are 100 miles. We're hoping to get another 600 miles done next year and then the remainder done in the following year. So we're moving forward and we're starting construction this season. Design has some multiple parts to it. The data gathering is iterative. We've done quite a lot of data gathering, but there always seems to be a little bit more that's needed. We've completed our high level design for the entire network. That's done. We have our detailed design right now. We have eight of those 24 DAs that I have shown are currently in somewhere in the detailed design phase. And the first DA where we're going to start construction, that plan is in final review by the VCBB. When that final review is complete, that's that final third party review. When that's complete, the plans for that DA are ready to go to the contractor. So we are here. Can you at least define VCBB for our audience? Oh yes, certainly. The Vermont Community Broadband Board, who oversees the funding that we're using, the grant monies that we're using, and who is really overseeing this program and designing the thresholds that we need to achieve, designing in part the standards that we need to achieve, and is also verifying, they are the last word, they are the stewards of the grant money that's being spent. Of course, we are also the stewards of the grant money that's being spent, but they are the stewards for the entire CUD program. And so they have hired a contractor that reviews our final detailed design. And that's the third party review that's in the bullets here. Each DA that we walk through has to go through all of these design processes before we can get to construction. And our construction has multiple components to it. Certainly the most consistent and persistent component are getting the appropriate easements and permits for everywhere we go. Again, we're hanging fiber where fiber does not currently exist for the most part. So the pole attachments need to be set up and we need to get a license for that and there's a fair amount of work that needs to be done to the poles and the area around the poles in order to accept our fiber. And then we have certain areas where we're going underground and that has its own engineering requirements as well as easements and permits. We have terminals throughout our 24 DAs, we have a number of terminals that also need easements and permits because that's physical infrastructure that's going to sit on a concrete bed. That's going to get electrical power that's going to have backup power in many instances. So we need easements and permits for that. Of course, we need the materials on hand in order to do the construction and I want to spend a minute here on construction management. First, let me say that this picture. Those actually are my neighbors. That's right across the road. We understand the importance of stewardship. I'll use that word again of the community that we're hanging our fiber in and as we move construction crews through the community. We know where we are. We recognize what we're doing. Our construction management is going to be performed by NRTC. They are the same folks that are doing our design work. So not only are they doing the design, they're going to verify that what has been built matches the requirements of that design and they are going to ensure for us that that work is done safely and appropriately and that we don't run into the best extent that we can possibly control. We don't run into any problems moving through the terrain and moving through people's backyards and moving through their fields and farms as we hang our fiber. We're very conscious of that. These really are my neighbors in this picture. So it's a very important part of construction and construction is not complete without that aspect of it being performed. So let me move on to our next slide because then the important thing that we do next is we test and go live. And the reason we're testing is because we need to make sure that the network that we provide does what it's supposed to do reliably and to the full extent of its capacity. So there are a number of things that we need to do. We need to supply network connections. We need to tap into the internet. We need to tap into our internet service provider. But we also need to do that with redundancy, meaning that we need to have multiple sources of access to the internet should any single source problematically go down or have any kind of hiccup with it. We need to make sure that there's instantaneous switching to something that is active. And this is built into the network, but it into our network design, but it also needs to be secured through a multiple access avenues that can be switched on and off as needed. And that's the network resiliency. Then we also need to do our rollout testing to premises. There's something called friendlies. These are folks that residences that we will use to help us work out the bugs that we, especially in our early rollouts, but I'm sure this is going to happen throughout all of our rollouts. We're going to find that there needs to be some kind of a tweak that there might be a connection that's not quite correct. These are the things that we'll need to find out in our pre rollout testing. And all of this is required to ensure that the product that we're providing when folks do get the chance to subscribe and have installers come to their house, that the product that they're getting is going to be a product that they can rely on, and that will work as close to 100% of the time as possible. These installations that really start with subscriber outreach, folks know that we've been putting out on front porch forum, and that's probably how you knew to be here. But one of the things that folks maybe don't know is that we're getting ready to start up a marketing campaign. I believe this will be a very unique type of marketing campaign, considering what we're doing reaching out to the underserved in the area that we're reaching out. But we are hiring a contractor to help us design that campaign. We are also doing something that's extremely important through a firm called crowd fiber. They also work with Watesfield Telecom. They currently use them for their own subscribers. And this is going to be a portal on our website that will be absolutely seamless to the folks that go to our website and that are looking to subscribe and they will be able to see where their address is in the construction schedule. They will be able to pick and choose a type of service that they prefer and sign up for it. They will be able to schedule their installation all through our website in a seamless way that is integrated with Watesfield Telecom who will be actually doing those installations and providing the service for CV fiber. So we're going to have this seamless integration that's going to work through our website where folks can track where we are. We're going to have a marketing campaign that is going to broadcast through various outlets where we are and which areas are ready and which areas are going to be ready in the near future so that folks can understand where we are. This is all rolling up now with our initial construction starting in October. So our marketing campaign and our crowd fiber rollout is going to be kind of concurrent with that initial construction work so that in what we're hoping is that come the beginning of the calendar year that we'll be able to start performing installations and that folks will be able to get on the website and see where their address is lined up for maybe March or April or February or they can sign up for installations right there off of our website. So this is not yet live but our intention is that this will be live in the beginning of the new year. Now I've put some dates out there you know we've committed ourselves to an October November construction start in those two days that that we've identified. And I've walked through all of the different things that need to line up in order for that to happen so that we can actually have installations starting in the beginning of the new year. There's a lot that needs to line up. There's a lot of potentials for delay. I'm not hedging here what I'm what I'm what I'm doing is explaining. We know that there are possibilities for make ready delay and we have started very early with coordination, especially with WEC because of the tremendous overlap in the DA's where we're starting with WEC territory. It's extraordinarily helpful in working with us in getting our DA's cleared so that we can get poll licenses and get make ready online but advanced coordination is something we're going to continue to do throughout our construction process. And we're also tentatively going to have to do some alternative design if we get out in the field and find out that make ready is just too much of a burden. We may need to need to go underground. We may need to shift the route a little bit. We need to be flexible in order to do that. Many people have heard about supply chain problems and the delays that come with not being able to get materials and we've been warned from day one that materials are going to be a big problem. So what we did was advance purchase. We're talking about doing 100 miles of construction in October, November timeframe this winter. We've purchased 400 miles of materials. Now we haven't gotten delivery on 400 miles of delivery of materials because some of those lead times are many months. But we are also accepting partial delivery. So if we've ordered 10 of something but and it takes 10 to do our 400 miles but we only need two of them to do those first 100 miles. We're taking partial delivery of two and we're not holding up delivery of the of the entire order for 10 and we've worked this out with our material providers. In addition, we're also working with our adjacent CUDs to see if it's possible to do some material swapping. If we're shy an item and one of our neighboring CUDs has three extra that they're not going to need for another six months and ours is on order but it's not going to get here for two months and we need it tomorrow. We can borrow one and pay it back when we get in kind when we get our piece of material. So we're working on these kinds of issues as well so that we can work around the materials delays that we don't know the details of but we're expecting something. Similarly, similarly with construction we've been told that it's going to be very difficult to get crews in the field, that there's a manpower shortage, and it's going to be hard to have folks available when you need them available. We've started coordination with our contractors we've talked to them early we told them what they want to do they know our plans. We've been we've been told by our contractors that they will work through the week winter we've been told that they can have crews up here. When we need them in this fall and they know when we need them and they know where we need them. So we're having those discussions now to make sure that we're doing as much advanced planning as possible. We also are working in deployment flexibility so that we have multiple da is available at one time to a contractor. So that if for any reason something occurs in one da that's going to stop a contractor from working there they can switch gears move 15 miles and start working continue working on another da. Because that plan will be ready it'll be in hand and it'll be part of the scope of work. So our intention here is to give the contractor as much flexibility as possible to keep them working. Because the last thing we want is the contractor to send his crews away and tell them they'll bring them back when they can. So flexibility for deployment of contractors is really important. So you know we know we haven't identified all of the potential risk items there and there are certainly the infamous unknown unknowns that are out there. But for the things that we do know about we've we've been trying to be very proactive on our on our risk management. But in the things that I said I was going to talk about early on one of the one of the things was cost. So let's let's let's talk about costs and remember that I had mentioned that I will tell you the things that I know for sure. So let's talk about where where where our subscriber fees basically are going to come from which is what they need to pay for. Our design is going to be funded by grants much of our pre construction I can't say that every last bit of it but much of our pre construction will be funded by grants. The construction itself is in part funded by grants the construction that we're starting this fall is going to be 100% grant funded. Eventually the grant money is going to run out rough estimate 50% of our construction design pre construction construction funding 50% of that lot is going to be paid for by grants approximately the rest needs to be paid for by loans. We don't know of any other place to get this money even though we are looking for additional grants the grants we've identified so far get us 50% there as an estimate. So we will need to go and and and and borrow money to continue our construction because we do not want to stop construction once we start in October. Our intention is to keep construction workers in the field until we are built out. We are not looking to stop construction. So we will be getting loans. We will be working on loans in 2023 so that we will have those funds available either in the end of 2023 or in the beginning of 2024 to keep construction moving. So those loans are going to be need to be paid for by subscription fees. Installation. We have grants that are going to installation I want to say right now I want to thank you to all of the towns that have dedicated some of their town ARPA money some of that grant funding to CV fiber mostly for the purpose of helping support the payment of for installations. And we have a total now of $833,000 from from our member towns that is being matched 100% to give us 1.1.6 million dollars that is going to be put towards installations. And based on our towns matching funds and I want to thank everyone that has been working towards doing that that that is an incredible amount of money and it took a wonderful effort to do that and thank you everyone. The additional installation fees will need to be paid by subscribers. And of course, operations and maintenance, keeping us going, all will need to be paid for by subscribers so we have worked these costs into development of our subscription fees, we will be carrying of course, no profits, but we will need to be financially sustainable because we won't be able to provide any services is all at all if we don't exist. So financial stability is going to be key for CV fiber, but there is there's no profits no shareholders, just subscribers that that that we need to answer to. So our subscription fees. And as I as I mentioned I will tell you what I know, they're still under development. They are extremely close to being finalized. We've been going through third party verification. And, as a matter of fact, just today we had our maybe third or fourth meeting on third party verification. We had a truing up of our financial model, based on the bids that we got from our construction contractors. So we had, we had estimates that were in our financial model now those estimates are being are being trued up by the, the, the actual bids that we got from contractors. And of course there will be additional costs as well that those are in our financial model as contingencies. We are looking to provide the lowest fees possible that provide reliable service. That means we need to cover our maintenance we need to cover have a have our funds that support the loans that will be required to have funds available. We need to be able to address contingencies. So we need to be financially viable, but whatever those lowest fees are that make us financially viable. That is what our fees are going to be. We're offering multiple service tiers. So that folks that that want to get through super fast internet, you know the gig and the two gig. It will be welcome to it it'll be available. Our minimum service will be 100 over 100 I'll talk about that again in a minute. And of course businesses will we will have custom features for businesses that need more than just fast internet that that need, need other types of services that aren't necessarily required for residential service. So our subscription fees are under development. As soon as they are available folks will see them on our crowd fiber site, and we will make them available on our website. So, where we're not withholding anything at all here. It's just that they're under development. But I do want to talk about digital equity because digital equity is something that we firmly believe in here. Our minimum access is 100 over 100 that is a that is a very, very fast rate. That that that equality over up and down speed provides a level of service that is that is typically not available certainly it's not available through DSL it's not available through cable and even even some of the early fiber networks as you get up to one gig and two gig having having that symmetrical isn't a capability. So we're we're we're moving forward with giving even the lowest access subscriber digital equity here. And we are looking at two initiatives to also provide financial assistance to digital equity we're working with the equal access to broadband initiative EAB, which is helping lay out smooth the path to being able to access the government programs that are available. We're also working with the affordable connectivity program making that accessible probably directly from our website. So that folks don't have to hunt for what to find out if they are excess if they have eligibility for these programs what their eligibility are we want to make that as easy as possible. And one of the things that we've noticed in talking with other providers is that these programs are very much underutilized. They're labor intensive for the for the provider to to work with the the subscribers that need this access but it's it's very very much underutilized and and we're looking to step that up we're we are going to provide specialized outreach that has yet to be defined. But we want to make sure that we don't settle for the industry average for access for bringing access to the to the community that needs financial assistance we're we're we're not going to settle for that we're we're we're going to move beyond that. So that that that really is the the extent of of what I wanted to provide to folks I'm happy to answer questions or you know please visit our website visit our website often. Crowdfiber And we'll be up and running with our website over the next few months we are of course going to announce that in our regular ways through through from porch forum and another outlets we will be having another another one of these webinars in November where hopefully we will be talking about the construction that's ongoing at that time and maybe even walking folks through the the access on our internet site we'll see where we are at that time. But I think it's it's time for me to stop talking at the moment and take any questions that that anybody might have and at the moment. I'm hearing no questions but I will I will wait for anyone who has a question hey Mimi welcome I'll go on and let us know what's on your mind. So we have perhaps 350 feet between the phone pole and our home. Our current electric lines are buried underground. There's not a conduit. How does that last chunk of distance get taken care of and who pays for it. Well that's it that's that's that's that's a very good question and there are there are a number of variables there some of which would take a field investigation to true up. Sometimes when there's conduit there's more than one conduit laid so that there's actually an accessible conduit potentially we have no conduit. There's there's no second conduit. Okay there's no conduit at all. There's not a first conduit. The electric line is just under the ground. Oh okay that's interesting well certainly the fiber needs to be in a conduit. So so that that that that conduit need that conduit needs to be laid it is part of the installation process. We have not finalized with the towns how the ARPA money would help in in paying for or or or supporting not necessarily 100% I don't want to speak for anyone here. But our intention is to make installation not be a barrier to entry. So we will we will be working with the towns to see how ARPA money can be used for that and we will also be working with Watesfield Telecom who is our installer to figure out the best ways especially with their experience because they've been doing this for many years. The best ways to to get that paid for if if for whatever burden of that falls on the subscriber and I really don't know how much of that it will be but our hope is that we'll be able to spend some of those ARPA funds to support just that kind of of installation. Okay thanks. Now I saw I saw a hand up from from Michael my grant my great. Yes. Can you tell me what towns are in the first two days where construction is going to start. I can. Now, but I'm going to caveat that by explaining how this works, because the the DA's are designated the boundaries of the DA are totally an engineering construct they are not a town jurisdiction jurisdictional construct. So we in our high level design figured out where the best place to put our terminals would be so that the light doesn't lose its power over the distance that it needs to travel and that told us how many terminals we need where they need to be and it also told us the shape of these DA's so that we could get our service out to the underserved. So there are parts of callus. There are parts of Worcester. There are parts of East Montpelier. I believe there's a slice of middle sex. There may even be a corner of Marshfield. So it's and then and Woodbury as well. There's a there's a slice of Woodbury in those first two DA's and then as we move as I said around the clock, we're going to continue in that same fashion. So it's not like we're going to go middle sex more town Northfield Rocksbury. It's going to be, you know, these DA's that have slices of multiple towns which might have middle sex and Waterbury and Ducksbury. And on the other side, there might be some Cabot and Marshfield and Woodbury. So it's really an engineering construct, not a town by town construct. Chuck, I'd like you to move in on this too, please. I just wanted to point out that there is a question in the chat whether you would be willing to put up the DA map again, please. And you went on mute, Jerry. Okay, so yes, I am an analog person living in a digital world just to make that clear, but I will go back to the slideshow and I will go back to the DA picture so somebody can take a screenshot of it. There you go. These are these are our DA's represented by the various colors. The shapes are really delineated by where the homes are, what the topography is, how far the light can travel from its terminal. And you can actually see how these DA's are built on this slide, which is, you know, just happens to be a shot of multiple DA's you can see on the lower right hand corner it says MA3 upper right hand corner says MA01. And towards the center it says CL01 this is just a random shot, but you can see where we where we go right along the roads and identify the homes with our E911 database. And that's how these DA's are built. So these are engineering engineering constructs and I'll take this down now and I'll entertain any other questions or comments. Jerry, there's a there's a question in chat and I think it's burning on a lot of people's minds here. I'll read it. So I'm not really clear and I think this is a very important question who pays to install the fiber from the pole to the home. If the homeowner is responsible and there are subsidies who receives the subsidy. How is that determined? I'm not really clear what the answer is. Is that because CB fiber isn't sure yet some clarification would be helpful. Thanks. That's very good. And you are correct. It's because we have not fully ironed this out yet. So it will be, there's typically a minimum length where the fee is a small standard fee. Then there are as the as the length, it depends on the amount of work that's required, right? As the as the as the lengths extend the fees typically go up. We have been working with the towns and there are funds to work out that those funds could be used to support the subscriber in these fees in the payment of these fees. And that's, we believe that's a very good way to use these funds because you know that that money is being used in the town because you know the subscriber lives in the town. And we are working on an equitable way of doing that, which we haven't fully designed yet. So I so and that's why it's not presented. Jerry, you mind if I jump in and offer a little additional? Please, please Chuck. Yeah, so it's important to understand that there are numerous variables when it comes to that question. There's is your current electricity above ground or below ground? Is your current electricity if below ground running through a conduit? Is there already a second conduit for phone or something like that that is running to your house? And unfortunately, each site is going to be different. So CV fiber will develop a standard policy that says up to a certain distance pole to house above ground. We will we will just include that in the normal installation fee and that will be that will be fine. And then below ground tends to be where it gets most expensive and most tricky. And thank you, David. David Lawrence just posted in the chat a link to EC fibers documentation on on how to connect. It's a very good resource. I recommend you check it out because our policy is probably going to end up fairly similar to that. But if you do live in a place where your electricity comes in underground, you are also going to have to have your fiber come in underground. And that means you are going to have to lay conduit. Now, in some places you will be able to get grant subsidies to cover that cost where towns have agreed to put their ARPA money to to that purpose. Or there may be some other mechanisms we can tap into in the future, but not every town has agreed to do that. So this is not going to be universally true. And at the end of the day is going to fall to subscribers if there are no other sources of funds to be able to do that. I know, for example, at my residence, we are unfortunately facing a pretty hefty bill to install. Are there other other questions or comments? Michael, great. Let's see. Yes. What website is there with the map with the DAs? Is there like a town boundary overlay so that one can get a sense of the different DAs and what parts of what towns they encompass? And could you give me the code numbers for those first two DAs that are going to be where construction will begin? The first two DAs are CL01 and CL02. And the CL designates the terminal that's being used. And there are three DAs that go with that terminal. The third one is not going to be part of the very initial build out that will happen in the spring. And yeah, we can see about having a map of that type. That would be very informative, I think, if you could do that with just a layer with town boundaries and then superimposed on the DA areas. Very good point taken. Emily and John from Middlesex? Yeah, hi, thank you. So to kind of follow up on that question, one of your slides had the very detailed DA map with the individual 911 addresses, I think that is, is that something you're able to share? Or is that the thing that you're keeping under locking key so the private sector competitors don't see that? And I think what you're seeing here is we're all just dying to know when we are in the queue, you know. Well, so yeah, we're kind of keeping that under locking key for a number of reasons. One is that if the design isn't finished, what you're looking at is in final. So that's one aspect of that. But let me let me give a more general a more general description here. We are starting this fall at the 12 o'clock position right of our district. There's the donut hole in the middle that is Berlin Montpellier big part East Montpellier Barry Barry town that isn't underserved. So we're going around that okay parts of Northfield. So the other towns that make up that make up CV fiber, we will be working from 12 o'clock going down both sides of the clock towards nine o'clock towards three o'clock. And our intention is to build as fast and as far as possible. So we are hoping to build about 600 miles next construction year if we build if we build 100 this year. We are hoping to build 500 next year for 600 miles by the end of 2023. And then the residual would be in 2024. If we can speed that up. We will speed that up. Now, the way I've described it it sounds very smooth that might get lumpy. There may be a problem da that was originally meant to be as the as the work flow and we're going to have multiple construction contractors doing this by the way, we're not relying on a single contractor. So, as we're as we're going from down the side there may be a da that for whatever reason we either have to skip, or we have to leave, not fully constructed because of because of whatever problem, there might be in that da. That might jump another da up the up the schedule if you will, because the 600 miles I'm talking about now just lost a da will make up for that somewhere else. It's, it's possible, it's possible to go faster but the stars really need to align. It's possible to go slower because we run into some kind of issue that either we didn't foresee, or we foresaw the problem but just didn't address it appropriately. You know, this is, this is, this is a real construction project I mean it's a $50 million construction project it takes time, but we're hoping to have everybody by 2024 eligible eligible available for for service. That's our intention verification everybody who is presently underserved and on the power grid by 2024. Thank you, Chuck, please, you know, right. Absolutely, I get used to talking to the about this to the folks that already, you know, know the know the jargon so I apologize for that we are talking about the underserved additional additional questions. Question question by the way be coordinating with CV fiber to move forward with installation after the da construction is finished in our area. Would that be done through your website. What was the beginning of that one Chuck, could you read that again. Sure, will we be coordinating with CV fiber to move forward with installation after the da construction is finished in our area. Would that be done through your website. I believe the answer is yes here. So our, our intention is that you will, you will be able to input. So, so the da that okay maybe maybe the da needs to be complete. We talked about testing and go live. So the da needs to be fully tested. On the network side to make sure that the that the network aspect that the hung fiber aspect works. And we also need to do the the go live testing aspect where we're working with a handful of early subscribers friendlies they're known in the industry to make sure that we have all the bugs out of that da and that everything is working smoothly going back to Watesfield telecom so they can provide the service. Our intention is that you would be able to put your address into the website. See where you are in that process, whether or not construction is even started in your area, or whether construction is ongoing and we're starting to take. We're starting to schedule installations and and and a tentative date and when installations are available when when subscriptions can begin and that da that information should be on our website. As we're as we're moving through the process. So we're going to construct a da we're going to test a da. We're going to we're going to make sure that that da has all the redundancy and all of the features that it needs to provide 100% of the service and then folks can start subscribing to that da while we're building the next one and hopefully while we're building multiple da's at that time. Janiel. Well, let me take a step back. Was that that's sufficiently answer that question. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Sean. I think you had your hand up there for a minute. This is Janiel Smith our executive director. You answered the question, Jerry, but I wanted to make sure that folks knew that we were working to get our website up and running through crowdfiber so that you will be able to put your specific address on the website and get updated through a newsletter that tells you when we're going to be able to expect service and details about how we're progressing. So that is something that we're currently working on and you will be able to sign up through our through our website. So that will help everyone keep informed and also set expectations and as plans might change or pivot it would keep you updated depending on where you are. So that you answered that about satellite connections that that that very good that does not disqualify you. John Walters. I see you have your hand up sir, and you are on mute. Come on. There we go. I think I double clicked it. I didn't put this in the chat, but I wanted to reiterate it that we do do our best to keep in touch with people who are interested in CV fiber. We do this primarily in a couple of ways right now. One is regular postings twice a month on front porch forum. So if you're on your community's front porch forum you will get those updates. And we also do have an email list and you can sign up. No obligation, no cost on the CV fiber website to get to get updates via email. That's all. Thanks John that's that's that's this is a good thing to mention while we have folks attention here. Thank you. Other questions or comments. We will be doing this again in November. I don't have the date off the top of my head. I don't know if Chuck if you if you have that date. No, it's maybe it hasn't been determined yet. John is your hand still up. Not not. I didn't mean to. Okay, not intentionally. Okay. Very good. Okay, I'm off. Okay, thanks. Thanks John. If there are no more questions. I just want to put out multiple thanks one to everyone for taking the time to to listening to what we have to say here and for having patients with us. I know we all needed this high speed Internet. Yesterday to say the least. So I appreciate your patience with us when we roll it out we want to roll it out once and for all this is going to be a change that's going to enhance generations of Vermonters. So we were going to get it right. I just want to thank all of the volunteers and and and everyone that works with us. Our partners again our contractors. Thank you all for everything you do for CV fiber. It's a wonderful thing we're doing here. If there's nothing left. Chuck is there anything anything in the chat that's hanging out there that we need to address before we go. I have a question about contacting us. I want to point out that on our website we have a forum where you can contact our general inbox for general questions. And you can also contact your town delegates or a specific community. Sorry, committee within within CV fiber. So if you want to reach any of those three options you can do that right on our website on our contact form. I also want to say, CV fiber came into being four and a half years ago. We're going to grind to get to this point and a lot of blood, sweat and tears poured into it by a lot of volunteers. Some who are working near full time on this endeavor and and for that I give a lot of thanks. And we are close people we are we are literally breaking ground within weeks and and we'll actually have our first service areas within a few months and and so you know after a four and a half years log. We're going to wait that long to see service at your actual house when when it's your internet you're talking about, but know that we are doing everything we can to bring it to your house as as quickly as we possibly can. The pictures you saw of the fiber. That's our fiber in our yard. And our intention is to hang it right by your house. We will in time. So thank you everybody. Good night. Really appreciate your attention. And we hope to see you again soon. Thank you. Bye bye all. I'm going to stop the recording and we'll be done.
