Utility companies, including cable, telephone and internet providers, jointly use the same set of poles to preserve space and serve customers efficiently. As a result, communication between utility pole owners and attachers is important to ensure smooth joint use operations.
Cleco’s Joint Use Management group is responsible for the management, design, construction, regulatory, legal and contractual oversight of all third-party attachments on Cleco’s utility poles. The group ensures consistency in Cleco’s assets so that all parties are treated equitably, assigned appropriate costs and held accountable for actions that might negatively impact the safety and reliability of Cleco’s electric distribution system.
All applications and notifications must be submitted online along with supporting documents, such as route maps and equipment specifications sheets. No mailed or faxed forms will be accepted.
