A search for 'Verizon' brings up a few emails regarding plans for installing / extending a telecommunications system at Hillary's Chapaqua residence in order 'that she can become more self sufficient at home'.

The installation appears to have been planned over 8 continuous days so as not to involve 'a change of teams'. It involved cable laying, cable splicing, installation of equipment and testing.

Could this have been the installation of, or upgrade of, the private server and SAP set up?

Edit: SOP to SAP

We can be sure it is not.

The private server was already being used for her 2009 presidential run and Bill Clinton's email and it was not State Department folks setting this up.

Giving the long period of time it took for this installation and the fact that it was managed by the State Department, I would bet that this was the installation of a SCIF, a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility in her home.

We know that she had one at Chappaqua.

I would say.... let US look into it and see what we discover. Considering your rep around here as resident shill, there is every reason to discount your opinion.

Except for the fact that I have a good track record for accuracy. They are talking about the getting SIPRNET access at the Chappaqua house

They are setting up a SCIF. Why do we know that? Because of the folks involved. Specifically the folks involved are the folks that manage SIPRNET. SIPRNET, also know as the HIGH SIDE is the US government's secure network for classified information.

You cannot email from SIPRNET to nonsecure systems like state.gov. SIPRNET doesn't connect to the regular Internet. This is why no classified documents showed up on Clinton's server. The issue with Clinton's server was about what they call spillage. Spillage is when classifed info gets included in non classifed documents like emails on the nonsecure state.gov accounts.

The process for the getting the SCIF at Clinton's NY house is Verizon has to lay the cables Then TWD comes in. TWD is then the construction vendor needs to build out the SCIF and sets up the equipment. Once the SCIF exists and has connection with Verizon, then it needs to be tested by IRM, the State Department's Bureau of Information Resources Management and DISA, the Defense Information System Agency to ensure it can connect with the White House Communication Agency. Here's the relevant section.

When can Verizon get into the house to start laying the lines/cables? We will probably need about'8 work days —for Verizon to lay lines, splicing - then TWD needs a couple days to set up the equipment, test it, then our offices in SES-IRM and DISA have to make sure that connection to WACA is right, etc.
