Sounds like my experiences with Zayo.  I wonder if any smaller network that does not have a dedicated legal team, or does tons of business with Zayo to have significant leverage ever gets anything out of them.

Frank,

                I made a list of 2019 outages and showed how I only had a single clean month (July) and they are taking their time with it, at least you got a response 😉

My credit request to Zayo for the September 9 event was rejected – they claimed force majeure.  I’m ask again. =)

That's pretty sad. So they already had a fiber crew on site and it still took many hours to fix it. Maybe they didn't have a splicer there but it's still bad to see how long it took when they knew the exact location of the cut since they caused it.

From our OSP supervisor:

…this was cut by Zayo’s own contractor who was working on moving their fiber.

From our field tech:

I think the contractor Zayo hired to move the fiber for the Hwy. 75 reconstruction hit the fiber. I'm assuming Vannguard's locates were off.

My own link was up at 1:41 am

 

Last update I received from Zayo was at 3:46 am:

Current Update: OSP techs have completed splicing on all active fibers at this time. All services should be restored. Please advise if you are still experiencing issues.

Another update at 11:25pm:

Current Update: Replacement fiber and splicers are onsite at this time. Techs will be prepping the cables for splicing soon. ETR at this time is 5 hours. More updates to follow.

 

So basically it should be up by 5 am or so.

Another update at 10:09 pm:

Current Update: Our OSP reported that the repair crew are running a little behind the 2 hour ETA provided earlier and have noted the are still about 50 minutes from the damage area.

 

So they will arrive around 11 pm, about 7h 15m from the start of the outage.

More detail in Zayo’s last update at 8:08 pm

We apologize for the delayed update. We've spoken with our OSP PM and have been advised that the splice crew's ETA to the site is still about 1 to 1.5 hours and the ETTR is 4.5 to 5 hours. The damage was caused by a construction crew and the damage area is south of Hinton, IA around County Rd 60 and Iowa State Rd 75. Additional information to follow once the splice crew is on site.

 

So it does seem related to the Hwy 75 re-construction project.

I heard it is out somewhere between Sioux City and Alton, so it definitely could be that IDOT construction zone.

 

We don't have growing pains we have Zayo pains.

Could be part of the Hwy 75 project:

Our OSP staff said that Zayo was the laggard on the required moves.

We've got a link in NW Iowa down as well, we're on the same (former Neutral Path) link as you guys to Sioux City - so it's someplace between Sioux City, IA and Windom, MN.
