What’s the deal with DES broadband??
DES customers should be receiving a postcard announcement in the mail with DES’s official NOTICE TO DES CUSTOMERS about our new Broadband Division! This is a requirement by our federal regulator, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), and includes details related to the total project cost, the approved plans for financing of the project, and contact information for further questions. Click here to visit our BROADBAND page for a sample of the postcard (front and back) as well as an update on our project status with some new + exciting announcements!

Buried utilities could exist just about anywhere you dig in your yard. By law, you must call 811 before doing any building, trenching, blasting, or digging.
So, be safe and at least three days before doing any work, call 811 to learn where underground lines, pipes and cables are buried in your yard. Digging without this information is not only dangerous, but could also be costly.
