Through the end of the first quarter of 2013, Horizon had constructed nearly 1100 miles of fiber, both aerial and underground. Points-of-Presence (POPs) continue to be brought on line as fiber reaches them. Horizon has contracts with 125 community anchor institutions (CAIs) with sixty-one of them receiving service. Twenty-nine Points of Presence (POPs), most located in county seats, are online. Of twelve contracts with Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs), eight are connected. Horizon is working diligently to manage the high cost of make-ready in this Appalachian region. |

| Infrastructure Purpose and Rationale |
This project meets ARRA purposes (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5). (1) To preserve and create jobs: This project is expected to create or preserve more than 400 jobs. (2) Of the 34 counties in the project area, 31 are economically distressed, 15 are designated "distressed" or "at risk" by the Appalachian Regional Commission, 13 endure employment of 3.5% or more above the national average, with a peak of 19.1%, and 15 suffer poverty rates 5% or more above teh national average with a peak of 29.6%. Nearly 60% of those living in the project area do not have any broadband access. (3) The project will bring high-speed broadband connectivity to 592 community anchor institutions, including 212 healthcare facilities, 34 industrial parks, and 44 institutions of higher education. (4) The project's 1,960-mile network will pass 157,980 existing businesses, giving them broadband Internet access on par with their counterparts in urban areas. (5) The project's CAIs include 34 county 911 public safety answering points and 32 State of Ohio Multi-Agency Radio Communications System towers. This will provide powerful upgrades to existing capabilities and facilitate collaborations among county and municipal law enforcement, first responders, state-level agencies and federal Homeland Security operations. |
