2. OBSTACLES & OBSTRUCTIONS.
Natural o structions and publicly owned existing facilities and
improvements encountered during construction shall be removed, relocated,
reconstructed or worked around as herein specified, regardless of
whether or not their existence or location is shown or noted on the
drawings. Care shall be used while excavating, trenching, or performing
other work adjacent to any facilities intended to remain in place. Except
as otherwise specified, the Contractor shall be responsible for any
damage to publicly owned items, and any repairs required shall 7e promptly
made at his expense. Unless otherwise provided in the proposal and
section entitled "Basis of Payment", no separate or additional payment
will be made for any work in connection with removal, relocation, or
restoration of obstructions and existing facilities.
(a) SUBSURFACE OBSTRUCTIONS. The Contractor shall make a
reasonable effort to ascertain the existence of ob-
structions by inquiry and examination of public and
private utility maps, and shall locate obstructions by
digging in advance of machine excavation where definite
information is not available as to their exact location.
Where such facilities are unexpectedly encountered and
damaged, responsible officials and other affected
parties shall be notified and proper arrangements made
for the prompt repair and restoration of service.
(b) SURFACE OBSTRUCTIONS. Surface obstructions removed to
permit construction shall be reconstructed as specified
for new construction, or if not specified, in accordance
with accepted standard practice and to the dimensions,
lines, and grades of original construction.
(c) PUBLIC UTILITIES. Public utility pipelines, poles, cables,
conduits, and wires which interfere with construction shall,
where practicable, be bypassed or worked around by hand ex-
cavating, tunneling, or other approved methods at the
Contractor's expense. Where not possible to bypass or work
around the facility, the facility shall be removed or re-
located by the respective utility company upon notification
that such removal or relocation work is necessary to permit
new construction to lines and grades designated. Cost of
such removal or relocation work shall be borne by the
Owner, provided that the facility to be removed or relocated
has been installed at a specific location and specified
depth under terms written in the franchise; otherwise all
costs shall be borne by the utility company. The Owner
shall notify the utility company in writing of the approxi-
mate date on which construction work will begin. Such
notice shall be given sufficiently in advance of beginning
construction to allow adequate time for the removal or re-
location work to be accomplished by the utility company
without interfering with construction schedules. In the
event that required removal or relocation work has not been
accomplished prior to construction at the location, the ob-
structing facility may be removed or relocated by the Contrac-
tor at the expense of the utility company.
S-2
(d) TREES AND SHRUBS. Trees and shrubs not directly interfering
with excavation shall be carefully preserved insofar as
possible without resorting to hand methods of excavation, and
due care shall be taken to prevent unnecessary damage to
such vegetation or landscaping improvements.
(e) SODDED AND LANDSCAPED AREAS. Sodded and landscaped areas
such as parkings on or adjacent to improved property,
shall be disturbed only to the extent reouired to permit
construction. Such areas shall not be used as storage
sites for construction supplies and, insofar as practicable,
shall be kept free from stockpiles of excavated materials.
Upon completion of backfilling operations adjacent to the
new sidewalks, all disturbed areas shall be carefully hand
raked to allow the private property owner to reseed grass
or otherwise maintain the area.
