Tachus Community December 12, 2022

We understand this construction process can look intimidating at first, but we strive to be as minimally invasive as possible. But in the end, you’ll see that Tachus fiber Internet is well worth the wait. One of the first things you will notice during construction is that the road right-of-way will have different colored flags and water-based paint.

‍

What are the flags and markings on my property for?

Once you begin to see locate markings and flags in the right-of-way, you can expect Tachus' construction to start soon. These locate marks are to alert our crews of the existing utilities locations. They are for your safety and ours, so please do not move them. Unfortunately, we are only good as the locates placed, so if they are moved or incorrectly marked, we run the risk of damaging other utility lines. Our goal is to build in your community effectively and efficiently. Like all construction processes, there is potential for damages and disruption. Our crews do not know where your sprinkler systems, landscape lighting, or any pet fences are placed, so please let us or the crews know of their location to avoid damage to them. Tachus strives to make this process go as smoothly as possible. If you should encounter any issues while our contractors are working in your area, please notify Tachus immediately.

What do the different colors mean?

These flags and markers are our eyes to the ground below. Each color represents a different utility or service:

White: Proposed excavation

Proposed excavation Green: Sewer and drain lines

Sewer and drain lines Blue: Water

Water Red: Power lines, cables, conduit, and lighting cables

Power lines, cables, conduit, and lighting cables Yellow: Gas, oil, steam, petroleum, or gaseous materials Gas, oil, steam, petroleum, or gaseous materials Orange: Communications, alarm or signal lines, cables, or conduit

We only work in the front right-of-way or utility easements of the property. We have gone through the appropriate approval processes, and as a registered utility company in the state of Texas we are allowed to work within the rights-of-way. Again, we want this to be a painless process, and we would love to address any of your concerns. Just reach out to our team either by phone or email at 832.791.1100 or support@tachus.com.

What is the 51st and 52nd state of the United States?

The State of Jefferson would be our 52nd state, the 51st being the now-aborning North Colorado.

msnbc.com - And behold, our 51st and 52nd states

Yesterday in Siskiyou County, California, the board of supervisors voted to issue a declaration of secession from the rest of California. The far-northern county wants to be known as the free state of Jefferson, a land removed from "loony California" and uniting non-loony counties now languishing there and in Oregon (see map at right, not including the Southern California and Nevada counties they'd like to recruit). Seceding from a state and forming a new one requires the approval of the both the original state and the U.S. Congress. It's almost impossible. Siskiyou County supervisors voted 4-1 to get out of California anyway. The Redding Record-Searchlight relays this from the meeting: "Many proposed laws are unconstitutional and deny us our God-given rights," said Gabe Garrison of Happy Camp. "We need our own state so we can make laws that fit our way of life." The State of Jefferson would be our 52nd state, the 51st being the now-aborning North Colorado. In both cases, organizers say their desire to secede stems from the conviction that rural values and rural needs are not represented well in state capitals they consider urban-centric. It's apparently an appealing frustration. The map for the Colorado-based 51st State Initiative has been growing. Marked in blue below are counties where leader Jeffrey Hare says citizens or officials have shown "significant "support. Yellow is for counties where people are actively working on secession. Green is for counties that already have some kind of popular vote scheduled or have joined the working group. White is for counties in Kansas that might want to come over. And red is for Boulder and Denver, a/k/a not interested.
