The scope of work encompasses removal of buildings, fences, septic tanks, driveways, paved areas, conduits, and miscellaneous structures within designated right-of-way and easement areas, with all work requiring compliance with federal, state, and local regulations, including hazardous materials handling, refrigerant recovery for HVAC units, licensed septic tank pumping, and seeding and grading of disturbed areas with specified materials.
