Lumbee River EMC OLT Facility (SU-26-1)
Hoke County
Description
A small fenced broadband equipment site — an optical line terminal, backup propane generator, and 500-gallon tank — on 0.11 acres to serve about 400 underserved homes. Neighbors feared it could grow into a data center and said the street sign went up late, but the board approved it.
Impact summary
Brings fiber internet to roughly 400 homes in northwest Hoke County with minimal traffic and noise; the site stays small and fenced.
