Cal High Cost Fund-A

Foresthill Telephone Co. was awarded an encumbrance-only contract by the California Public Utilities Commission on August 18, 2026, with a total contract value of $1.41 million. The contract is designated as Encumbrance Only 26CHCFA004 and involves a single line item under the Cal High Cost Fund-A program, valued at $1,409,742.67. As an encumbrance-only award, this contract represents a reservation of funds rather than a final obligation, indicating that the specific terms of performance, delivery schedules, and detailed service specifications may be subject to finalization or amendment.

The contract documents do not explicitly specify a defined period of performance, annual value breakdown, or specific geographic performance locations beyond the California jurisdiction. The single line item unit of measure is listed as "Each" at the quoted unit price, suggesting the award may represent a block allocation or ongoing service authorization under the Cal High Cost Fund-A, which typically supports telecommunications services in high-cost areas. Additional contract documentation would be necessary to determine the precise scope of services, performance timeline, and detailed obligations of the prime contractor.
