Utilities Seek Extension on EEI Pole Attachment Petition Replies

The Utilities Technology Council and Edison Electric Institute requested additional time from the FCC to submit reply comments on EEI's petition for reconsideration of the commission's December declaratory ruling on pole attachment and replacement costs. The groups want the deadline extended until March 19, noting in a filing posted Wednesday in docket 17-84 that initial opposition comments were due on the same day as comments on a related NPRM (see 2402140048).
