A. The permittee shall inform itself as to the existence and location of any underground utilities and protect the same against damage.
B. The permittee shall be responsible for any damage done to any public or private property by reason of the breaking of any water pipe, sewer, gas pipe, electric conduit or other utility. The permittee shall not interfere with any existing utility without the written consent of the Water Commissioner and the utility involved.
C. The permittee shall support and protect, by timbers or otherwise, all pipes, conduits, poles, wires or other apparatus which may be in any way affected by the construction or maintenance work, and do everything necessary to support, sustain and protect the same under, over, along or across the work. In case any of the pipes, conduits, poles, wires, or apparatus are damaged, they shall be repaired by the authorities having control of the same and the expense of such repairs shall be charged to the permittee.
D. If it is necessary to move an existing utility, the work may be done by the owner of such utility. Whenever the permittee's utility interferes with the actual construction of any public improvement, such utility shall be moved by the permittee. No utility, either publicly or privately owned shall be moved to accommodate the permittee unless the cost of such work is borne by the permittee. (Ord. 157 § 310, 1961)
