2.G PERMITS DURING PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS. <br />Any utility installation or relocation within the public way that is being performed concurrently with <br />a public infrastructure improvement and construction project requires a permit issued by the <br />Maintenance Division prior to commencement of utility work. <br />2.G.1 City Engineered and Administered Projects. <br />For permit work conducted in conjunction with City engineered or administered projects, the <br />Inspector will verify that a utility right-of--way permit has been issued and that the Engineering <br />Division project manager assigned to the project has copies of all issued permits and associated <br />plans. The Inspector will perform inspections and respond to all locate requests during contract <br />construction prof ects administered by the City until such time as the Engineering Division assigned <br />personnel are on site. After Engineering personnel are on site, they will be responsible for any <br />required utility inspections and locates until the prof ect is substantially completed. After substantial <br />completion, when assigned Engineering personnel are no longer on site, the Inspector will again be <br />responsible. For prof ects that include street work, substantial completion requires completion of the <br />final paving. Substantial completion for projects not involving street work will be determined by <br />the Engineering project manager. <br />The Engineering Division proj ect manager shall notify the Inspector in writing (by memorandum or <br />`..__ electronic mail) whenever utility inspection and locate responsibilities for a project have been <br />transferred to Engineering personnel, when an Engineering inspector is assigned to on-site <br />inspection, and when responsibilities transfer back to the Inspector (upon substantial project <br />completion). At the time of project substantial completion, the Inspector shall be provided <br />documentation of all field design changes in underground facilities which occurred during the <br />construction project. The Inspector may be required to respond to locate requests after the project <br />is completed, but prior to availability of as-constructed drawings. <br />It is the Inspector's responsibility to inspect the relocation of a utility's facilities due to a City <br />contract construction project, but outside the boundary of the project. Engineering Division <br />personnel shall be responsible only for the inspection of facility relocation within the limits of the <br />City contract construction project. <br />Z.G.2 Privately Engineered Public Improvement Projects. <br />Provisions for utility permits and inspection for City engineered and administered projects shall <br />apply to privately engineered public improvement projects; except that Engineering Division <br />personnel inspect only utility crossings installed concurrent with public improvements inspected by <br />the Engineering inspector. All other right-of--way permit related inspection activities on such <br />projects will be performed by the Inspector. <br />Utility & ]Z/W Permit Manual <br />Exhibit A - 18 <br />C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files\OLKB202\03rowrtexa.wpd -Manual (03ROWR 1).WPD(11/07/03) <br />
