Abstract: The rules and regulations contained in 47 CFR Part 1 Subpart J provide complaint and enforcement procedures to ensure that telecommunications carriers and cable system operators have nondiscriminatory access to utility poles, ducts, conduits, and rights-of-way on rates, terms and conditions that are just and reasonable. They also provide complaint and enforcement procedures for incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs, as defined in 47 U.S.C. 251(h)) to ensure that, to the extent ILECs have attachment rights by contract, the rates, terms, and conditions of their pole attachments are just and reasonable.
