The Valley Electric Association is working to make Beatty the first "all fiber-optic" town in Nevada.
The Pahrump Valley Times reports VEA's subsidiary Valley Communications will work over the next half-year to put in new power poles throughout Beatty that are capable of handling fiber-optic lines for internet service.
VEA already provides fiber-optic internet access in Pahrump, but it's through wifi and not from direct fiber to the home.
The Amargosa Valley will get the same starting this month.
