(ii) Exhibits that show straight line construction with a standard offset distance are only acceptable if a field review by the WHD District confirms that construction along straight lines is practical. (See related Section on location within the R/W).

(iii) If unanticipated or unusual circumstances are encountered during utility construction which force a deviation in excess of two feet from the approved horizontal alignment, the respective District Maintenance Engineer will be contacted prior to making the deviation, for approval of the deviation and an amended exhibit will be filed by the utility.

(c) Buried Crossings.

(i) Cross-sectional view of highway R/W at the crossing, showing the depth of the facility relative to natural ground, roadway drainage ditch and roadway template.

(ii) Location of bore and receiving pits.

(iii) If casing pipe or conduit is used, show where the casing will end.
