Here is what I have recieved thus far:

The teleco reports that the cut may have been caused by gas company
workers while they were doing construction work in the area.
Estimated time to repair (ETR) is 4 to 6 hours. The reason for this
extened time is because there is not enough slack in the cable to bring
the two cut ends together. An additional section of fiber is needed
to make the splice. The needed fiber is hours away and needs to be
trucked in.
