2. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket is pivotable relative to the second bracket.

3. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket is not pivotable relative to the second bracket.

4. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket has a first coupling element, and the second bracket has a second coupling element, the first and second coupling elements being coupled with each other by the attachment element.

5. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein an orientation of the first bracket is adjustable relative to the second bracket.

6. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein an orientation of the first bracket is not adjustable relative to the second bracket.

7. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket comprises a base panel.

8. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 7 , wherein the base panel of the first bracket has a plurality of mounting holes, the base panel being configured to cooperate with a fastening plate such that one of the plurality of the mounting holes of the base panel is aligned with a mounting hole defined in the fastening plate and a mounting hole defined in the end of the bracing member, allowing a first bolt to extend through the aligned mounting holes for attachment of the first bracket to the end of the bracing member, and

wherein a position of the first bracket is adjustable relative to the end of the bracing member by selecting different mounting holes of the base panel to align with the mounting hole defined in the fastening plate and the mounting hole defined in the end of the bracing member.

9. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 8 , wherein the first bracket further comprises first and second opposing side panels each extending toward the fastening plate from a side edge of the base panel.

10. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 9 , wherein the first side panel comprises a plurality of first mounting holes, and the second side panel comprises a plurality of second mounting holes corresponding to the plurality of the first mounting hole, each of the plurality of first mounting holes being paired with a corresponding second mounting hole, one of the plurality of first mounting holes is alignable with the corresponding second mounting hole and a transverse mounting hole defined in the end of the bracing member, allowing a second bolt to extend through the aligned mounting holes, and

Wherein a position of the first bracket is adjustable relative to the end of the bracing member by selecting different pairs of the first and second mounting holes to align with the transverse mounting hole defined in the end of the of the bracing member.

11. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 9 , wherein the fastening plate is integral with the base panel and the side panels.

12. The bracing member mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second bracket comprises a plurality of mounting holes such that a position of the second bracket is adjustable relative to the support member by selecting different mounting holes of the second bracket for attachment with the support member.

13. A utility line support system, comprising:

a support member;

a bracing member having an end attached to the support member; and

an adjustable mounting assembly that attaches the end of the bracing member to the support member, the adjustable mounting assembly comprising:

a first bracket attachable to the bracing member;

a second bracket attachable to the support member; and

an attachment element that attaches the first and second brackets to each other,

wherein the adjustable mounting assembly is configured to allow a distance between the end of the bracing member and the support member to be adjusted in a longitudinal direction of the bracing member.

14. A method for adjusting a position of a bracing member relative to a first support member used in a utility line support system by adjusting an adjustable mounting assembly, the adjustable mounting assembly comprising a first bracket, a second bracket and an attachment element that attaches the first and second brackets to each other, the method comprising:

adjusting a position of the first bracket relative to a first attachment end of the bracing member by selecting one of a plurality of mounting holes defined in the first bracket for mounting with the first attachment end of the bracing member;

attaching the first bracket to the first attachment end of the bracing member after aligning the selected mounting hole of the first bracket with a mounting hole defined in the first attachment end of the bracing member;

adjusting an orientation of the first bracket relative to the second bracket by pivoting the first bracket about the attachment element;

adjusting a position of the second bracket relative to the support member after selecting one of a plurality of mounting holes defined in the second bracket for mounting with the support member; and

attaching the second bracket to the support member by aligning the selected mounting hole of the second bracket with a mounting hole defined in the support member.

15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising attaching a second attachment end of the bracing member to a second support member by another adjustable mounting assembly.
