201.1 New Overhead Developments
 

New Overhead Developments

1.      Backbone System: Where single phase or multiphase overhead backbone distribution primary and secondary extensions are requested through planned subdivisions, the owner or developer shall pay a CIAC for each lot served and per foot of cable as listed on the Schedule of Charges. Satisfactory arrangements must be made for the payment of these charges before construction begins. This charge is in addition to any other charges required by the Service Rules and Regulations ( SRR ).

2.      Undeveloped Areas: When the owner or developer requests overhead primary distribution systems that necessitate the installation of underground cables through, by, or across areas that have not been subdivided into lots and offered for sale, the Cooperative may charge, in advance, a per foot charge for the distance required. Such charge is specified in the Schedule of Charges. This charge is in addition to any other charges required by the SRR .  

3.      Conduit Installation: Where the owner or developer of a subdivision with overhead primary facilities elects to have underground services under a road and the underground line extensions will be installed subsequent to paving, the Cooperative will provide the conduit at the per foot cost listed on the Schedule of Charges.

The owner or developer shall, at his or her own expense, install the conduit to meet the specifications provided by the Cooperative. The Cooperative will provide a layout showing where the conduit must be installed. In the event the owner or developer requests the Cooperative to install the conduit prior to the installation of the underground service, the requesting party shall pay a CIAC equal to the total estimated cost of the conduit installation. In all cases, the owner or developer will be responsible for tamping the trench to adequate compaction prior to paving. In the event that conduit is not installed prior to paving, the owner, member, or developer will be required to pay all costs incurred in boring under or cutting through and replacing pavement within the development or project. The costs for boring are included in the Schedule of Charges. These charges are in addition to any other charges required by the SRR .
