As our society has become more connected we have added tremendously to the overhead wiring that connects us and powers our homes and businesses. The addition of fiber optic cabling has in many places more than doubled the number of overhead wires along our streets. The ground under our streets in many places is laced with colored plastic ducts with thousands of fiber strands. This web page was delivered to you down one of those communication pathways.

Removal really means relocation to another place--overhead or underground. Both are expensive and bring different but related issues. One of the often un-noticed but relentless efforts with the reforming of downtown Houston has been the removal of overhead utilities that clutter the skyline and make new development more costly. 

The principals of DAC have played key roles in developing plans to remove those utilities and managing the projects during the removal. We have on-going relationships with the electrical, gas and communication distributers.
