I would be interested in hearing from those providing fiber to homes  
or businesses, and the laws surrounding that.

Specifically, if the builder of a new home or homes allows fiber  
installation (that is, fiber installed before the home is built and  
which is wired into the basement wall beside the telco's network  
panel) by a non-ILEC/non-CLEC, is a permit other than the usual  
construction permit necessary?

(Certainly an easement will need to be drawn up for the fiber as it  
crosses property lines; but I am more worried about the ILEC  
complaining or being able to erect legal barriers).

Cordially
