1.E.2 Internal Public Works Locate Requests For Maintenance Activities Locate requests placed with the Utility Notification Center for the various types of maintenance work to be performed by City of Eugene Public Works staff shall be treated in a manner similar to those locates performed for agencies or individuals issued aright-of--way permit, with the following exception. Because the research has already been done, Maintenance Division personnel do not research the existing underground facilities. Upon specific request, the Inspector will research and field-locate all wastewater and stormwater facilities for maintenance work to be performed by Maintenance and Transportation Division crews. Section 2: PERMITS FOR WORK WITHIN THE PUBLIC WAY 2.A GENERAL No person, franchised utility, or municipal utility shall perform work affecting the public way without first obtaining a permit from the City Engineer. EC 7.290(2) As used herein, "work affecting the- public way" includes, but is not limited to, installation, or construction of any structure, pipe, conduit, culvert, or facility, including a communications facility or other wire line facility in the public way, and any construction, reconstruction, grading, dust control, repair, opening or excavation of a public way for any purpose but does not include the construction of public improvements performed under a contract executed by the City Manager or work performed by City employees under the City Manager's direction. EC 7.290(1) Issuance of a permit for work within the public way does not relieve the permittee from the responsibility to obtain other necessary permits and to conform to other regulatory requirements. In certain areas of the public way, location restrictions, setbacks, natural resource preservation, wetland, or other local, state, or federal regulations may apply. For example, a separate erosion prevention permit may be required, in addition to aright-of--way cut. permit, for work performed in the public way. EC 6.635(1). If an erosion permit is required, no ather permits will be issued prior to the approval of the erosion permit, Administrative Rule R-6.645 (5). Individual permits that fit the criterion of street and right-of--way work permits include, but are. not limited to, Right-of--Way Cut Permits, Right-of--Way Use Permits, Utility Right-of--Way Use Permits, Tree Removal Permits, and Temporary Surfacing Permits. While not required by the Eugene Code, an adopted City of Eugene policy requires work within the public way which is to be performed under a contract executed by the City. Manager to be .reviewed by Public Works staff and a permit to be issued.. All associated fees shall be waived. Utility & R/W Permit Policy Exhibit A - 6 r:\adminord\rules\OOrowrlexa.wpd(09/13/00)
