1. Request requirements

• Planned color of identifying wrap.
• Funding source.
• Total cable/fiber diameter (including existing wire) that will be on the pole. If the cable is being overlashed to existing cable, indicate the total diameter of the final attachment.
• Correctly indicate overlash. You may not include strands planned for overlash in proposed new strand requests.
• Proposed attachment height: Estimate the height at which you propose to place the attachment. As mentioned above, once the survey is complete, we will determine where to place your attachment and share this with you. We will review the clearance calculations from the proposed attachment to our facilities, determine the required clearance based on code and standards requirements and determine if work needs to occur on the pole. The attaching company is responsible for ensuring the attachment meets applicable standards and codes.
• Minimum and maximum wire sag: We will calculate this as part of the design process.
• Existing attachers: Please provide what other attachments are on the pole listed by company name.
• Existing attacher height (upper and lower): If there are existing attachers on the pole, please estimate the heights of these attachments. It does not need to be precise. We will measure attachment heights during the site survey.

2. Wire and equipment specifications

Please submit the strand, cable and fiber specification sheets.

3. Sag and tension charts

• Submit sag and tension charts of the strand, cable or fiber from the material manufacturer for the proposed installation. We require a minimum of strand, cable and fiber size/count.
• You can but don't have to substitute CommScope for sag and tension charts.

4. Maps

• Submit clear and accurate maps with street names, poles, pole numbers and a clearly indicated project route including anchoring and risers.
• Please submit all poles that we have equipment on, regardless of pole owner.
