Alta Municipal Utilities state-reach reading
Alta Municipal Utilities opens on geographic reach: #488 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (1 state), with 75 records behind that footprint.
Alta Municipal Utilities sits in the lower third of Form 477 providers by record volume (< 329). Thin filing books still matter when they dominate one state or a niche technology pocket rather than a national residential footprint.
Iowa alone accounts for 100.0% of Alta Municipal Utilities's filings (75 of 75), a concentrated book where one state can swing the national picture. Form 477 historically let providers mark a whole census block from a single reachable address; treat these counts as declared capability, not address-level availability, speed, or price.
