Quoted from OP link:
Louisiana-based CenturyLink has not submitted a formal application on the Yellowstone proposal, according to park officials and company spokeswoman Michelle Jackson. For the project to make economic sense in such a remote area, Jackson said, the company (CenturyLink) has asked for most costs to be covered by the Park Service and companies that would benefit from the line, including Verizon, Union Wireless and park concessionaires.
I agree that overdue maintenance would be a better use of Park Service money in all Parks.
CenturyLink can build and finance their own fiber line without taxpayer money.
