INTRODUCTION AND BAC KGROUND

According to the 2010 Census Bureau estimates, the population of Laketown Township was 5,505 and there were approximately 2625 households and very few businesses. Laketown is considered to be 48% Urban and 52% Rural. The number of households in the 2000 Census was 2080 households. This shows a significant growth over that 10 year period. The township has a total area of 21.7 square miles. The median household income in Laketown Township is $65,313, more than $15,000 above the Michigan average. In addition the Median home price in 2010 was $204,700. The average age in Laketown Township is 39 years old, and 43% have a Bachelor’s degree or higher. All these demographic factors point to a growing and affluent area. Laketown Township sits 6 miles southwest of Holland, Michigan in Allegan County and is considered a “bedroom community” for that city with many employers. There are also a significant amount of retirees, with 17.7% of residents 65 and over. The proximity of Interstate Highway 196 passing through Laketown Township and its adjacent recreation areas (offered by both Lake Michigan and Lake Macatawa) contribute to its ideal location.

One drawback to living in Laketown Township today is that there are no good options for Internet! Traditional copper based services are offered by AT&T and Charter. Wireless low speed options include Hughes Net (Satellite), and expensive Cellular data coverage. All speeds are advertised as “up to” as best-effort type services and the wireless services have monthly data caps. None of these options are considered “Broadband”, and none are reasonably priced.

Laketown Township is seizing a perfect opportunity by bringing fiber optic based internet services to this area. With the above demographic and high density living areas, a large number of residents subscribing to the new fiber-based services are expected. This report details a high level engineering, materials and construction cost to implement a Fiber to the Home project serving all of the Laketown Township.

FIBER TO THE HOME IN L AKETOWN

After an extended site visit and a review of the Township residential developments, it has been determined that the Laketown Township building on Beeline Road would be an ideal location for the Township’s Central Office. The Township living units and parcels were GIS mapped and certain main serving routes were a match to the overall topography of the Township. The A or North Route backbone will feed up 62nd Street. This route will also feed a passive optical network (PON) cabinet at 61st St and 145th Ave that serves the area in the very NE corner of the Township. The B or Southeast Route will pick up the homes in the Southeast corner of the township. That backbone feeds down Beeline Rd and back over the Interstate to 62nd St. The C or Southwest Route covers the largest geographical area and includes all of the homes west from the lake, feeding both sides of 142nd Ave as the north boundary and 64th St as the east boundary. The final main route (D) extends westward along 144th Ave and north on 64th St to feed the Northwest corner of the Township. Due to the density of homes in this area, 2 additional cabinets are recommended, with one at 66th St and 146th Ave serving the Northwest corner of the Township, and one at 64th and Hidden Hollow Lane serving the developments along 64th, 147th Ave and the Township boundary on 32nd St, east of Wildwood Rd.

PLANNING FOR A CONNECTION TO THE WORLD

There are 2 fiber backbones that pass near or through Laketown Township. The first is an aerial lead that travels the east border of the Township along 60th St/Graafschap. There is a three way

splice case at 146th and 60th St. There is also buried fiber with markers at the intersection of 58th St. and 138th Ave about a mile east of the SE corner of the Township. With your permission, contact can be made with these entities and an interconnection explored. On a contingency basis, Laketown can build 3 miles into Holland to meet a number of fiber networks near the main AT&T Central Office at 13 W 10th Street. This construction funding would be what we would consider the worst case cost for budget purposes.

LAKETOWN AREA DESIGN

REMOTE EQUIPMENT LOCATION

Laketown Township is rectangular north to south. The Laketown Township office is located one half mile north and one mile east from the center of the township. Due to the population concentration and growth to the North and East, this seems like an ideal situation! From this point, the furthest customer is 6 miles away. This is well within the 12.4 mile range of traditional FTTH electronics. For a more detailed discussion about optical loss and budget, see Appendix A.

TRADITIONAL DUCT SIZING AND DEPLOYMENT

There are many advantages to burying the fiber optic system, the most important of which is avoiding ice storms, snow, wind and vehicles. When main line fiber cable is buried it is now commonly placed into conduit. It is essential to invest in the conduit infrastructure to provide extra protection from being damaged or cut and providing a path and a future space for growth and maintenance. In addition, direct buried fiber is not easily repaired as it has no slack to retrieve and resplice, and cable must be pieced in and then reburied. The Laketown Township fiber system Yates Engineering Services (YES) designed will place at least 2 - 1 ¼ inch conduits, and in some cases near the office 3 or 4 – 1 ¼ inch conduits. YES will leave one spare and populate the others with the backbone fiber cables. The design will also call for hand holes or flush to the ground enclosure boxes to store maintenance slack and splices, and provide access points for the drops to be placed to homes. To reduce the size of the drops and provide the most flexibility, the system is designed to have a hand hole placed at every other lot line. There are also hand holes placed at fiber taper points and branches. These hand holes are either 2’ by 3’ or 3’ by 4’ equipped with a lid that can withstand 20,000 lbs, and no bottom. The base of the hand hole is 6 inches of gravel, which allows ground water to fill and drain, and the ground to freeze and thaw without moving the hand hole out of the ground. The hand holes may be equipped with racks to mount any splice cases, and the lids are also bolted shut to ensure the safety of the fiber cable.

ACTIVE E VERSUS PON THOUGHTS

The initial approach to providing FTTH is through a passive optical network or PON. This allows up to 32 customers to share a single fiber trunk through the use of prism optics called “splitters”. PON architecture allows areas that have over 500 residents to be served by a cabinet fed by a 24 fiber cable. If 2.4 Gigabit circuit port at the central office is shared by 32 customers, the dedicated bandwidth available to them is 75 Mb/sec. If only 2-3 customers use the bandwidth at one time, speeds of up to 1 Gigabit can also be achieved. Active E electronics on the other hand require an architecture that provides one fiber per home all the way back to the Central Office, with no splitter. The PON architecture can be converted to an Active E architecture if Laketown Township would like to bring full dedicated gigabit connectivity to the Township. Additional cable could be placed into the spare conduits and the splitter cabinets bypassed, so that customers that wanted to pay for a full gigabit service could be connected directly to their own gigabit port in the central office equipment. The option would remain to serve other customers in the areas outside of town with trunk fed splitter cabinets. This defers a significant amount of the fiber and port electronics investment until the service demands increase and the larger bandwidth service is required by users.

5

The option being used in this deployment is to bring some of the advantages of a larger pipe in a PON deployment by limiting the number of customers on each splitter. As an example, a 2.4GB Optical Line Termination Port with only 20 customers on a 1/32 splitter affords 120 Mb/s of bandwidth to each customer at full use. Using spare duct allows for future additional distribution cable to be placed once customers demand Active E services.

OSP FIBER LAYOUT PLANNING MAPS

The .pdf and .kmz files provided illustrate the OSP fiber layout utilized for developing the cost model. The centerline footages from the Allegan County GIS map were used, along with the parcel and address data. Clicking on the various map features provides data for that item. The colored fiber lines have both the length and fiber size for each segment. The green “bulls-eye” symbols show the number of homes fed by that leg plus a 25% growth factor that drives the size of the cable. Clicking on the purple “address” dots shows the address and parcel number of each lot or home. Also, a sample of drops was mapped for traditional subdivisions, and rural homes. This drop size was used to create 2 traditional average drop sizes for each type of home used in the cost model.

PERMITS FOR THE TOWNSHIP OF LAKETOWN AND ALLEGAN COUNTY

Appendix C shows the Laketown Township Ordinance permit requirements as well has the permit form required for Allegan County. There are no major concerns with the right of way rules in place. YES will have to determine how and if to apply the Laketown Ordinances to the Township itself. There are a number of items required by the County Highway Department that merit review here: 1. The preference for telephone utilities is the South and West portions of the right of way, 15 -18 feet from centerline. An alternate location is 28 – 32 feet from centerline. 2. Excavation work within the right-of-way, including the installation of utility pipes and cables shall not be permitted between November 15th and March 31st except by special authorization of the County Engineer. 3. Resolutions adopted by the governmental unit in cases where the applicant is a city, village, township, or county, may be used in lieu of a Bond or Insurance Certificate. 4. Permits will be required for all private engineering, seismographic or land surveying field crews doing any work in the county road rights-of-way. The base permit fee is $200, but the County has the right to bill expected inspection fees as well. This is usually waived as YES is a federally approved inspection group.

LAKETOWN FTTH DETAIL

REMOTE EQUIPMENT REQUIRED

There are a number of FTTH access equipment vendors being used by carriers and ISPs. Traditional vendors include Adtran, Alcatel, Calix, Cisco, Enablence, and Zhone. The access equipment that claims the highest number of homes served in North America is Calix. For budget purposes, we will price out Calix Equipment in the Central Office and Customer premise.

The newest Calix option for a FTTH deployment is use of the E7-20 Chassis, equipped with 10 GPON-8 Cards. The GPON-8 cards have SFP+ Uplinks that have a range of 25 miles, and have 8 PON ports and 4 Active E ports. The PON ports each deliver 2.4 Gb over a 1 by 32 splitter to up to 256 customers. YES has designed the network so that only 20 to 24 customers will be placed on a splitter, providing more than 100 Mb/s to 120 Mb/s dedicated per customer. The Active E ports on each of the PON cards will allow for a Gig E service (1000Mb/s) directly to a customer that is willing to pay for that connectivity. Even with PON cabinets or hubs, a limited number of active E ports can still be made available with this design. The Chassis comes with a Fan Tray Assembly, but the entire switch and transport functions are imbedded independently in each line card. Line cards can be stacked in the manner shown below to achieve the port density required. Because Laketown will be serving 2700 customers initially an E7-20 Chassis can be deployed at 50% capacity.

DROP CONSTRUCTION

An average rural drop length of 350’ was estimated, and a traditional subdivision drop at 175’ with 56’ of slack. These estimates are applied in the cost study for all 2700 customers. For the 1400 homes served out of the cabinets the 175’ was used and for the balance the 350’ was used. This includes 50’ of slack at the hand hole and 6’ of length up the side of the house.

CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIAL COST SUMMARY

See Appendix D for a specification for fiber and duct. See Appendix E for spreadsheet printout of the cost study. The spreadsheet shows the build items, the cost per item for material and labor, and the number of these items placed. Our construction labor estimate assumes that the build is 100% buried, and that 50% of the conduit can be placed with a powing method, and 50% wll be placed by the more expensive boring method. For items such as fiber and duct, there is not a waste calculation noted of 5% to 10%, based on the contractor dealing with reel ends and placement damage. This is priced into the contractor’s material costs. For the labor rates YES compared both an average of labor and material costs from 14 recent bids, as well as the evaluation of a trusted construction partner that went to Laketown and provided us with their target pricing. This target pricing was lower than what is in our cost model. This is due to the lag between now and when the project will actually start. Our more conservative numbers should hold up in an environment where the price of fuel and goods increase into 2017.

INDOOR NIDS

Entry level indoor NID (ONT) plus Wifi is budgeted at $250 based on Calix Pricing, plus $50 for pre-connectorized jumper to Inside ONT. (This is the $300 material cost found in the pricing model) There are ONT housing options that include a lithium battery for $90, should the customer wish to purchase one to fit with a UPS or generator.

INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS

During our analysis and evaluation of the Network, we also consulted with ISPs that would be interesting in serving a built in place FTTH deployment like Laketown is planning. The two pieces of equipment that the ISP would provide would be the Transport Equipment required to connect and accept upstream bandwidth to a Tier 1 Internet Carrier. This equipment would be the larger WDM boxes capable of accepting many types of Metro Ethernet Connections. In addition, the ISP would supply a Cisco aggregation router to connect the transport circuit to the Access Equipment in the Laketown Central Office.

YES has included the cost of both the office equipment and the customer premise of this access network. However, ISPs would still be interested in serving Laketown customers under a contract arrangement if Laketown only supplied the fiber from a bulkhead in the Laketown Central Office to a shell bulkhead on the side of each customer’s home. While this may impact the price and revenue sharing that is possible, it would not dissuade potential bidders should Laketown elect not to purchase the local access equipment.

FULL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION QUOTE SUMMA RY

ENGINEERING COST

The Construction Management and Inspection price is based on a 150 day build, which will also include the placement of drops, during mainline construction. This design allows for every property in the Township to eventually be served, and the total price includes all of the drops to be built in order to develop the engineering estimate. $730,583.00 Detailed Engineering Design, CAD staking sheets, permits, and redlines

$765,804.32 Construction Management, Inspection, Bid and Contract Management

$1,496,387.32 Total Engineering

MATERIAL COST

The cost plan yields a total of $2,120,410.00 for materials.

CONSTRUCTION LABOR COST

The cost plan yields a total of $4,860,648.03 for construction labor.

ISP COST EXPECTATION

$1,073,457.00 in materials and $293,840.00 in labor for a total of $1,367,297.00 or $506.41 per customer.

FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The total cost for Fiber to the Home in Laketown Township, to include the trunking, all OSP fiber and duct, drops, Engineering and Construction Management to serve a total of 2700 premises is $8,565,693.35. This includes an approximately 1% contingency cost ($88,248.00), but does not include the expected ISP Costs. This project can be designed to be built in phases, starting with the north side’s high density subdivisions, then focusing on additional estate subdivisions, and finishing with the rural part of town. Or, the build can start with the more rural area of the Township and work from south to north. The planning model can be used to change the assumption parameters or substitute actual material and placement quotes. Yates Engineering Services will help to refine the model and stage the deployment through the bid process. The map and .kmz file can be used to review and consider alternate fiber paths. Items like a cabinet to feed the Trailer Park to the south of Laketown can also be reviewed. The cost model spreadsheet should be updated as new information about current costs or alternatives are discovered. Should the awarded ISP not be able to gain connection to the world through adjacent fiber, then an additional $184,280 can be spent to build a backbone to a point adjacent to the AT&T Central Office in Holland. This amount is not reflected in the budget total of $8.566 M. YES is excited to present

this budget plan and looks forward to supporting the deployment of the Laketown Township FTTH Network!

APPENDIX A - OPTICAL LOSS BUDGET

For a traditional Single mode cable operating with traditional 1310 nm or 1550 nm lasers, the loss is about 0.25 dB per Kilometer. For planning purposes we use the TIA/EIA standard of 0.4 dB per Kilometer. At most there are 8 to 10 splices adding 0.1 dB each. We also add 0.75 dB for each fiber bulkhead termination. So for a 6 mile route (or 9.66 Km), the total loss would be 0.4 dB/Km x 9.66 Km + 10 splices x 0.1 dB/splice + 2 bulkheads x 0.75 dB/bulkhead = 6.364 dB. Adding a PON 1 by 32 splitter via a cabinet adds another 15 dB of loss. This is well within the normal outside loss budget target of 26 – 32 dB for a typical FTTH system. This is why many systems recommend the largest distance served to be 20 Km or 12.4 miles.
