"Four options were proposed to develop the network in three phases. The capital cost of the options ranged between approximately $700,000 and $7.6 million. The annual operating cost of the network is approximately $150,000. These different options and costs arise from the different methods costed out for laying the fibre network, *including the use of the DCC’s own wastewater ducting*. The study concludes that a combination of these methods may be the most cost-effective and efficient for different portions of each route."
