Slight note that some states separate mineral rights under railroads. Example https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/current-and-former-owners-of-land-n... where the URL sums it up. On Tue, Feb 6, 2018 at 2:56 PM, William Herrin <bill@herrin.us> wrote:

Who regulates and licenses dark fiber providers? Or does no one?
Hi Rod,
When they use public rights of way (alongside roads for example), dark fiber providers are regulated by the state corporation commission or public utilities commission of each state in which they operate.
When they use only private rights of way (e.g. railroad tracks) they are generally unregulated.
