We’re glad you want to learn more about how the A-CAM (also known as ACAM) program works. As you can imagine, being a federal program, there are many complexities and rules that we are required to follow.
What Greg A. in Hawley, Minn. says about Arvig Construction:
"I wanted to take a minute and let you know what a great job your crew did at my home. They (Arvig's construction crews) took the time to listen to my concerns and review pictures I had showing the locations of the private utilities buried in the construction area (phone, power, LP gas, well, cable, irrigation, etc). They located the various lines and bored the fiber up to my home. They ran the line inside the building using a conduit I installed when the home was built. They were patient, professional and polite. I was very impressed and satisfied with their work."
A-CAM and Arvig
Arvig is in the seventh year of a 10-year effort to expand and improve broadband access in rural Minnesota. In 2017, Arvig elected to accept a share of funding from the FCC’s Alternative Connect America Cost Model (ACAM) program, with the goal of bringing internet speeds of at least 25Mbps download and 3Mbps upload to rural areas in the Arvig service region.
2023 A-CAM Construction Areas
The new construction will provide residents in these areas with access to faster internet speeds (up to 1Gb/100Mb), Managed WiFi, TV, phone and more. Construction of the mainline is planned to be complete this fall.
