EPB Expects To Choose Equipment Provider For Cable TV Next Month

EPB President Harold DePriest says the utility expects to be able to choose an equipment provider for the system's planned new cable TV service by next months.

He said it has taken longer than expected to settle all the provider, who will furnish an "end to end" electronic backbone for the system.

Mr. DePriest says EPB may spend some $10 million to get that equipment in place, which will be a major step in getting the cable TV venture going.

He said EPB is now looking at providing cable TV service by next February.

The process is also ongoing to line up the channels that will be offered, he said.
