JCP&L Pole Attachment Permission procedure

Permission to attach to utility poles must be obtained before installing the following pole attachments:

  • Holiday lighting and decorations
  • Horizontal banners
  • Vertical banners/flags

All attachments to utility poles must be pre-approved by BOTH Jersey Central Power & Light and Verizon prior to any installation. Attachments made without permission are illegal and the parties doing so are responsible for any damage to property or persons.

Anyone interested in hanging a banner must first receive permission from the municipality, and an insurance certificate and Letter of Indemnification are required prior to any attachments.

For more information, contact Robin R. Alston-Santiago at JCP&L, at (732) 212-4261.
