The Delaware Joint Use Agreement is a legally binding contract that governs the sharing of power line easements for the installation and maintenance of fiber optic communications systems in the state of Delaware.

A power line easement is a designated area of land or property granted by the landowner to a utility company for the installation, operation, and maintenance of power lines. In this case, the Delaware Joint Use Agreement allows for the dual use of these power line easements to accommodate fiber optic communications' infrastructure. The purpose of the agreement is to facilitate the efficient and cost-effective deployment of fiber optic networks throughout Delaware.

The agreement ensures that both the power companies and telecommunication providers can use the power line easements in a manner that respects the rights of each party and minimizes any potential conflicts or disruptions.
