(a) General.

The provisions of Paragraph (i) & (ii). Section 5(a) apply.

(b) New Construction, Utility has Prior Right.

Reimbursements due the utility for the bridge attachment shall be prorated by the utility based on the cost of the attachment versus the cost of not attaching to the bridge, and shown in the final billing to the Department for all of the reimbursable work on the project.

(c) New Construction, Utility by License.

If a utility company wishes to attach facilities to a bridge or structure for other reasons, provided the criteria of Section 5 can be met, the Bridge Department will design the appropriate hanger system for the facility and include the installation in the Departments construction contract.

The cost of design, materials, and installation will be billed to the utility company. The request for work and costs shall be covered by an "Authority for Rendering Special Services" (ARS).
