The PERMITTEE’S contractor is solely responsible for ascertaining the actual location of all utility installations prior to beginning any excavation or other construction activity, which may affect any utility installation. Consider it normal and expected that utilities will prove to be an impediment to the operations and that use of other than usual equipment and construction methods in accomplishing the necessary work over, around, or under such utility installations may be necessary.

SECTION III: ENVIRONMENTAL

Environmental: Standards and Practices

75) If any species are listed by either the US Fish and Wildlife (USFWS) or by the State, the PERMITTEE must have a qualified biologist complete a field assessment and determine species presence or absence and contact the appropriate agencies to determine what mitigation methods are required if found. PERMITTEE must submit copies of any reports and documentation of any required agency consultations to NDOT.

76) The PERMITTEE must follow all BMPs to avoid impacts to all federal or state listed species.

77) BATS: If bats are identified roosting within the permitted area contact the Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) for proper guidance. An avoidance area with one hundred-foot (100’) radius must be maintained until formal guidance is received. For information on how to contact NDOW, go to:

http://www.ndow.org/Our_Agency/Contact_Us/

78) MIGRATORY BIRD TREATY ACT (MBTA): Vegetation/structure removal shall be conducted to conform with the MBTA to avoid impacts to listed migratory birds (50 CFR 10.13) that may be actively utilizing vegetation or structures for nesting. When possible, vegetation and structure removal should not occur during avian breeding season (generally March 1 through July 31), but raptors and owls may begin nesting as early as January. As these dates are a general guideline, active nests may be observed outside this range. If vegetation/structure removal must occur during avian breeding season, nesting surveys must be conducted by a qualified biologist. If nesting sites are found within the project limits, US Fish and Wildlife must be consulted to determine a suitable buffer area around the nest site. Buffer areas around the nest site should be flagged as an avoidance area and no disturbance should occur within the avoidance area while the nest is occupied with eggs and/or young. Once young have left the nest, the avoidance area can be removed, and work can resume. For more information on the Migratory Bird Treaty Act go to:

http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/regulationspolicies/mbta/mbtintro.html

79) LIVESTOCK OR WILDLIFE FENCING: If livestock (Nevada 4-wire Type C-NV-4B) or wildlife (96”) fencing is to be breached by the PERMITTEE, maintain the functionality of the fence to prevent livestock or wildlife from entering the Department’s right-of-way and becoming a safety hazard. All staging areas must be at least one hundred feet (100’) away from the terminus of a livestock or wildlife fence as well as any escape features such as 1-way gates or escape ramps.

80) NOXIOUS WEEDS: The PERMITTEE shall complete the Noxious Weed Management Checklist/Plan (https://www.nevadadot.com/doing-business/about-ndot/ndot-divisions/engineering/environmental-services/environmental-documents-and-projects), describing how they will prevent the introduction and spread of noxious weeds. The PERMITTEE must keep a copy of the completed Noxious Weed Management Checklist/Plan on site while working within the Department’s right-of-way. At Department’s request, the PERMITTEE shall provide a copy of the Noxious Weed Management Checklist/Plan to NDOT Environmental Services for review and approval. For more information Nevada noxious weeds, go to:

http://agri.nv.gov/NoxiousWeeds/

81) The permit area has been screened by NDOT for the potential to contain naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) and erionite. Based on NDOT screening there is potential these minerals may be present at the site. The PERMITTEE shall evaluate the soil and rock that may be disturbed for the potential of containing NOA or erionite. This can be done by looking at the geology and/or sampling and analyzing the earthen material. Once the potential for NOA and erionite are determined the PERMITTEE is responsible for determining the procedures necessary to reduce exposure to their employees and the general public to NOA or erionite fibers. At a minimum dust control measures should include no visual dust evident on, or leaving the project site. Based upon the length of the project and the concentration of the NOA and erionite detected in soil or rock the PERMITTEE may employ other procedures to protect workers and the general public. These could include, but not be limited to the following: control of access, cleaning of equipment before it leaves the site, use of personal protective equipment, monitoring of personnel for exposure, and monitoring ambient air. The PERMITTEE is responsible for the health and safety of their employees as it relates to NOA and erionite.

SECTION IV: MAINTENANCE

Maintenance: General

82) PERMITTEE shall be responsible for maintaining the integrity of the roadway surface. Dust, dirt, mud, gravel, etc. carried onto the roadway surface shall be removed on a regular basis (at least once a day or as requested by NDOT personnel). Failure to comply may result in NDOT having the roadway cleaned and the cost for the clean-up billed to the PERMITTEE.

83) PERMITTEE shall not disturb signs, object markers, milepost panels, marker posts and guideposts.

84) PERMITTEE shall not use the NDOT right-of-way for truck staging or deliveries. All truck staging and deliveries shall be accomplished outside of the NDOT right-of-way.

Maintenance: Utilities

85) Utility Maintenance is defined as actions performed on a regularly scheduled basis to preserve the intended working condition of the facility, or minor actions to correct a reoccurring problem.

i) For underground maintenance, this consists of opening existing manholes to repair underground facilities and uncovering no more than fifty (50) feet of cables or lines buried in earth portions of highway right-of-way.

86) Utility Design Modification is defined as a change in the approved facility, or major actions to correct a reoccurring problem.

87) PERMITTEE shall submit a temporary occupancy permit application for any utility maintenance activities within the NDOT right-of-way. All other modification or maintenance work not identified in Utility Maintenance shall require a new encroachment permit.

SECTION V: EMERGENCY WORK

Emergency Work: General

88) Emergency is defined as a sudden, unexpected occurrence, involving a clear and imminent danger, demanding immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss of, or damage to, life, health, property, or essential public services.

89) For emergencies, the PERMITTEE shall submit a NDOT Utility Emergency Work Notification Form to the NDOT District II Permit Office. The Emergency Notification Form may be hand delivered, faxed or sent electronic mail. Scheduled maintenance is not considered emergency work and may be denied. For more information, please contact the NDOT District II Permit Office at (775) 834-8330 during business hours.

90) During business hours, emergency work on permitted facilities must be authorized by the NDOT District II Permit Inspector, unless identified in an issued temporary occupancy permit. The Emergency Notification Form may be hand delivered, faxed or sent electronic mail.

91) During non-business hours, notify the NDOT District II Utilities 24/7 Hotline at (775) 834-8488. Provide the NDOT Road Operations Dispatch the following information:

i. PERMITTEE’s contact information for the emergency. NDOT Road Operations Dispatch may need to call back to follow up.

ii. Location of the emergency.

iii. Description of the emergency.

iv. Description of the traffic impact (shoulder closure, lane closure, etc.).

v. Give an estimated time duration to mitigate the incident.

92) During emergency work, the PERMITTEE should minimize the disturbance to traffic at all times.

93) For emergencies, on the first business day thereafter, the PERMITTEE shall contact the NDOT District II Permit Office to initiate a new permit (if needed). This may be a temporary occupancy permit or a standard encroachment permit. Failure to notify NDOT for an emergency work situation and obtain a permit within the stated time period is considered a violation and may result in this permit revocation.

PERMITTEE hereby acknowledges that he or she has read the Terms and Conditions Relating to Right-of-Way Occupancy Permits booklet (2018 ed.) and the Additional Terms and Conditions of this permit. By signing this permit, he or she agrees to all terms and conditions appurtenant to this permit.
