Southwest Alaska Long-haul and Optical Network (SALMONet)

closed

This Planning, Engineering, Feasibility, and Sustainability Studies project will allow SALMONet to hire experienced engineering, planning, and facilitation consultants to complete in depth feasibility studies, last-mile design, and construction cost estimates. Throughout the feasibility and design process, expert community planners and facilitators will gather stakeholder input to inform the plan and future grant applications. We will consult with financial experts to create a sustainable business plan for the tribally owned network. Extensive planning, community engagement, and regulatory compliance to ensure limited environmental impact across sensitive habitats will be required.
