Joint Use (JU) Permitting

Joint Use (JU) permit planning is critical as these permits are considered long lead. We set meetings with all stakeholders for a planning meeting before high-level design (HLD), before boots on the ground. This planning ensures the Power Company and NESC compliance is met, as well as the individual utility rules set within each utility's Joint Use Agreements. Verifying the rules of engagement ahead of time limits risks maintains project continuity, allocates resources effectively, and evaluates project feasibility.
