Pole attachments — attachments by a cable system or telecommunications provider to a utility’s pole, duct, conduit, or right-of-way (47 U.S.C. 224(a)(4)) — are governed federally by 47 U.S.C. 224 and the FCC’s pole-attachment rules at 47 CFR Part 1, Subpart J. A surety bond is typically required by the pole owner under the attachment agreement, guaranteeing the attacher’s payments and indemnity to the owner; the amount is set by the owner or the agreement rather than by a fixed federal sum. Confirm the required amount with your pole owner.
