2.13 NOTIFICATION TO UTILITY COMPANIES AND EXCAVATION PERMIT

A. Utility Locate Tickets:

1. In accordance with Florida “Underground Damage Prevention and Safety Act” (Chapter 556, Florida Statutes) as administered by Sunshine 811 of Florida. Any entity or individual responsible for any project involving excavating, grading, penetration, or disturbance of the earth’s surface, inclusive of jack and boring, pile-driving, directional drilling, trenching and pipe bursting, within the District shall not commence such Work until that entity/individual has submitted a Locate Ticket request to Sunshine 811 and received clearance from the affected utilities. Refer to http://www.sunshine811.com/

2. There are two types of utility locate requests:

a. Standard Locate requests:

1) Used when no portion of the excavation will be underwater.

2) Must be submitted between 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday, excluding weekends and holidays.

3) Request must be submitted a minimum of two (2) full business days before excavation. If the excavation site is in an area that is underwater, the request must be submitted ten (10) full business days before excavation. Two (2) full business days represents a time period of 48 hours, not including the day the locate ticket is requested, weekends or holidays. Day one begins at 12:00 AM the day AFTER the locate ticket is requested.

b. Submit request to Sunshine 811 Notification system.

1) Call 811 or enter the request via the internet at 32Thttp://www.sunshine811.com/

2) Write down the Sunshine 811 Locate Ticket number

c. Contact the Reedy Creek Energy Services (RCES) Utility Locate Office via email at WDW.RCES.Utility.Locates@disney.com 32T or at (407) 824-5992 to locate the existing utilities in the area.

1) Provide the Sunshine 811 Locate Ticket number.

2) Mark up the supplied map to show the limits of the excavation that will occur within the following thirty (30) days.

d. Emergency Locate requests:

1) An emergency is defined by Chapter 556.109, Florida Statutes as any condition constituting a clear and present danger to life or property; a situation caused by the escape of any substance transported by means of an underground facility; any interruption of vital public service or communication caused by any break or defect in a member’s underground facility; or any impairment of public roads or utilities that requires immediate repair, as determined by FDOT or another affected political subdivision.

2) Work-scheduling problems are not considered an emergency.

e. If prior to 7:00 AM or after 4:00 PM on weekdays, or anytime on weekends or holidays, call the RCES Control Room Emergency Number at 407.824.4185. Provide the nature of the emergency and exact location.

f. Call Sunshine 811.

g. Provide the Sunshine 811 Locate Ticket number to the RCES Control Room.

h. Approved excavators can request emergency tickets using Internet Ticket Entry (ITE).

Excavators not approved for ITE emergency ticket entry must request emergency tickets by calling 811.

B. Have the area subject to the request marked on the ground using the “white line” method recommended by Sunshine 811. If the area is a sensitive “on-stage” area where marking is not desired, meet the locators at the site and define the actual extent of the area to be located. Follow the Low Impact Marking Guidelines defined in Chapter 556.114, Florida Statutes.

C. DO NOT BEGIN EXCAVATION until you have:

1. Received and reviewed the Utility Locate Office Locate Ticket and notes for utility presence, conflicts, or special conditions.

2. Received notification from Sunshine 811 that all public utility locators (CFTOD, Smart City, TECO/Peoples Gas, Duke Energy, etc.) have responded to the locate request. This is automatically sent to you if you provide an e-mail address during the Locate Ticket request process. Or, you can access them manually by calling 811, 800.432.4770 or using the internet at the web address noted above.

D. NOTE: RCES Utility Locate Office is ONLY RESPONSIBLE for locating the utilities owned by CFTOD and for notifying specific WDW organizations that have underground facilities within CFTOD (WDW Irrigation, WDW Telecom, and WDW Video Technology). Owner’s Representative Utility Locate Office is not responsible for location of “secondary” facilities – those lines (electric, water, sewer, etc.) that are on the customer side of the meter or any other similar lines on the customer’s property. The Locate Ticket you will get from Owner’s Representative Utility Locate Office will specifically indicate that the excavator must also contact the property Owner / customer to obtain information on those secondary lines. The customer may require that the excavator locate such lines.

E. During Excavation:

1. Protect exposed underground facilities.

2. Keep the locator marks visible throughout the excavation period or request a reissue of the locate.

3. STOP EXCAVATION if an underground facility is contacted (even if there is no noticeable damage) or if you expose any warning tape or red concrete and contact the facility Owner directly.

4. Understand tolerance zones. Locate marks show the approximate location of underground facilities. The lines can actually be located anywhere within the tolerance zone. Proceed cautiously when digging within 24 inches on either side of the locate marks when using any mechanized equipment within the tolerance zone, supervision is necessary.

5. Keep a copy of the Owner’s Representative Utility Locate Office Locate Ticket and the Sunshine 811 Positive Response at the specific area of Work.

6. Issuance of a utility locate ticket does not relieve the excavator of the responsibility of exercising due caution for unknown or miss-allocated underground utilities.

a. The Utility Locate Ticket shall not be construed as a building permit.

b. When a utility requests an area to be “HAND-DUG” it means HAND DIG ONLY.

c. Hand dig is defined as any excavation using hand shovels to break up soil or earth for removal.

1) Shovels must be made with non-conductive handles to protect the operator from the potential for electrical shocks resulting from contact with energized lines.

7. The Owner or Owner’s Representative reserves the right to stop excavation at any time for the following reasons:

a. The Utility Locate Ticket is not present at the Job Site.

b. The excavation is not in compliance with Owner’s rules and regulations.

c. The excavation is endangering personnel, equipment, or existing utilities.

d. No restitution will be made for Work stoppage for violations of the above-mentioned causes.

2.14 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor shall maintain records and dates of the results of inspections for each hoisting machine and piece of equipment.

B. Contractor shall provide a Project Specific Safety Plan (PSSP) and obtain approval by the Owner or Owner’s Representative prior to commencing Work.
