Prior to major construction of new electric power lines and appurtenances equal to or larger than one hundred twenty (120) kV in size, or major extension or relocation of such facilities already in existence, franchisee shall obtain all required permits from Mineral County. No such prior permission or permits shall be required for power lines smaller than one hundred twenty (120) kV in size, or appurtenances thereto except for street cutting permits. When Sierra has obtained a street cutting permit for purposes of installing, maintaining, and using said electric power lines and appurtenances or any part thereof, Sierra shall promptly (but in no case later than 30 days) at its own cost and expense, place said public roads or so much thereof as may have been damaged in as good order and condition in which they were prior to being disturbed or excavated by Sierra. For emergency repairs and for minor construction, extension, relocation or other laying and using of electric power lines and appurtenances pursuant to this franchise which requires a street cut, franchisee shall notify Mineral County within a reasonable period of time subsequent to the completion of such work and obtain any required street cutting permits at that time without any penalty for performing work prior to obtaining the required street cutting permit. (Ord. 176A § 7, 2002)
