Webinar Description
Public power utilities of all sizes are increasingly being approached by small cell wireless carriers seeking access to public power utility poles and streetlight poles. At the same time, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and many states have adopted sweeping regulations governing access small cell access to public power utility poles and facilities. Hear an overview of practical considerations in the development and implementation of wireless pole attachment agreements in conformance of the new FCC rules and state requirements.
Topics
- Overview of the FCC’s rules and regulations applicable to small cell
- Discuss the most recent technological, business and engineering information on 5G and small cell deployments.
- Overview of wireless attachment agreements, including key terms and provisions
- Practical considerations regarding the application of FCC’s “shot clock” deadlines and application fees to public power utilities
- Lessons learned and questions yet to be resolved by the growing body of public power utilities that have had experience with negotiating agreements with the wireless industry
Series Description
Participate in this three-part series to learn about the latest legal and regulatory developments, as well as the most significant issues facing public power utilities at the federal, state, and local levels with respect to these attachments—including an in-depth review of 5G wireless technologies.
