House Bill No. introduced by L. Brewster establishes new rules and enforcement mechanisms for pole attachments in Montana. The bill mandates that pole owners must allow access to their poles for attachers if they have received broadband grant funding and are providing or committed to providing broadband services. It also requires that any grant agreements for broadband funding include compliance with these access rules, and existing agreements must be amended to align with the new requirements. If a pole owner fails to comply, aggrieved attachers can bring civil actions in the district court, where they may be awarded damages, equitable relief, and attorney fees.

The bill includes several definitions relevant to the new regulations, such as "affiliate," "attacher," "broadband grant funding," and "pole owner." Additionally, the bill specifies that it will be codified as a new chapter in Title 90 of the Montana Code, and it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
