2.E EMERGENCY PERMITS A permit (i.e. Right-of--Way Cut, Public Improvement, Revocable, Temporary Surfacing) is required for all work within the public wav. However, when emergency repairs of an existing facility are necessary, work may commence prior to the application for a permit. If this emergency occurs during the normal working hours of the Maintenance Division, immediate -verbal notice to the Inspector, Utility Permit and Inspections .Supervisor, or Maintenance Planning Manager is required. In the case where emergency repairs are necessary outside the normal business hours of the Maintenance Division, the Eugene Police Department (682-5111) should be notified if the work is within a street or alley and will necessitate a lane closure. If a representative of the Public Works Department is needed, upon request of the permittee, the Eugene Police Department will notify the "on-call" supervisor of the Maintenance Division. For emergency repairs which are likely to impact street trees, the Public Works Department must be notified and the Urban Forester consulted to determine impacts to public trees. Application for an emergency pernlit shall be submitted no later than the next working day following the emergency repairs. This application must clearly describe the nature of the emergency and the action the permittee has taken to date. The site of any emergency work v~~ill be inspected at the Inspector's first opportunity. The Inspector will ensure that the permit process is followed, the work was acceptably performed, no City facilities °were damaged, and the site returned to a condition as good as or better than that prior to the work being performed. 2.F PERMITS FOR CITY OWNED-FACILITY Although not required by the Eugene Code, Public Works Department policy also requires a permit to be obtained for work performed within the public way by or for all other City departments. Requiring City departments to obtain a permit affords the various divisions of Public Works an opportunity to comment on hou° these facilities will affect their areas of responsibility and operations, as well as ensuring that all City-owned facilities placed within the public way have as- constructed drawings completed and submitted to the Engineering Division for record and mapping purposes. 2.G PERMITS DURING PUBLIC .IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS Utility installation or relocation «-ithin the public way being performed concurrently with public Utility & R/W Permit Policy EXhlblt A - 15 r:\adminord\rules\OOrowrlexa.wpd(09/13/00)
