Preparatory work for one the early steps in the cable installation process--horizontal directional drilling--began on Monday, Feb. 7 near the OOI RSN shore station in Pacific City, Oregon. Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is a common technique used to install cables, pipelines, fiber-optic ducts, and other types of buried infrastructure.  See story online in the Pacific City Sun.
