As far as I know there has been no prohibition against joint installation
by GAO or Congress.  The current EID policy was supported in an 
ALMAJCOM letter by AF/SCT on 22 Apr 86.  Additionally, the current draft 
of the Local Information Transfer Architecture incorporates the  fiber 
optic policy in Annex E.  The policy for installation in the LITA 
basically says that fiber should not be installed jointly with coax for 
broadband LANs or twisted pair unless the route will overlay 
the eventual fiber optic backbone network.  It recommends use of fiber or joint
installation for Catagory A and Catogory B systems (e.g., T-carrier, 
ESS trunk circuits, broadband closed circuit TV, remote display circuits 
for radar, high-speed point-to-point links, high-density links, line-of-sight 
systems, ...).  I will send you a copy of the letter and the LITA (draft).

Hope life's not too tough in the Pacific.  Keep in touch.
I should be flying that way regularly starting in June 87.
