17 AAC 15.421 - Construction and inspection
(a) Whenever
practicable, a utility shall schedule the work of relocating its facilities so
that the work can be completed before the department's construction work
begins. When the utility relocation work is to be performed along with the
department's construction work, the utility shall coordinate the work schedule
of its own personnel or of its contractor with the work schedule of the
department's contractor. The utility shall work with the department's project
engineer in order to effect this coordination.
(b) The utility is responsible for
identifying and locating its facilities. The utility is also responsible for
extra costs resulting from delays to the department contractor's operations if
the utility facilities are not relocated in accordance with the relocation
agreement, except when the delays are beyond the control of the
utility.
(c) Unless otherwise
provided in the relocation agreement, the utility shall give the department
written notice not less than 10 days before the utility intends to begin work
on the relocation of its facilities.
(d) If required by the relocation agreement,
the utility shall furnish the department with records of all work performed and
all materials installed or removed.
(e) The utility shall stockpile all unusable
materials removed from the project and shall notify the department when these
materials are available for inspection. The department's inspector and a
representative of the utility will inspect these materials and record their
disposition in order to determine if any credit is due the
department.
(f) When an unforeseen
problem arises during utility relocation work, the department will confer with
the utility or utilities involved and will endeavor to bring about a
satisfactory resolution of the problem. If the problem cannot be resolved by
the parties, it will be referred to the commissioner or his designee for
consideration. The commissioner's decision is final.
