Engineering and Planning. General
5.4.1. It shall be the MHP Owner/Operator’s responsibility to ensure that any proposal prepared or received by the MHP Owner/Operator is based on full knowledge of all conditions that would affect the cost and conduct of the work. The MHP Owner/Operator shall inform itself fully and convey to all potential Contractors and to SCE the physical conditions at the work site, including, as applicable, subsurface geology, borrow pit conditions, and spoil disposal areas; the availability, location, and extent of construction and storage area and other facilities or structures above and below ground; necessary safety precautions and safeguards; dimensions not shown on Drawings; and the extent of established lines and levels.
5.4.2. The MHP Owner/Operator will continue to own and be responsible for the “Beyond-the- Meter” service facilities. SCE will include with the MHP Program additional reasonable services for common use areas within the MHP that will be served under commercial rate schedules. For common areas, SCE will terminate its service facilities at a location as close as possible to the exterior of the building/structure nearest to the SCE main distribution facilties. Moreover, the selected location shall be as close as practicable to the existing service delivery point(s); however, some flexibility in the construction approach is necessary to address various situations that exist in current installations. SCE will not provide the service panel and “Beyond-the-Meter” reimbursements for these common area services. Requests for additional common use area meters and services, including services for recreational vehicles (RV) spaces that are not provided by the MHP Program but are approved by SCE, will be designed under the guidance of the Service Relocation and Rearrangement provisions of Rule 15. The MHP Owner/Operator will be responsible for such charges, which shall be listed in Attachment B and C of this Agreement.
5.4.3. Requests for service relocations, rearrangements, and upgrades not covered by the MHP Program may be made by the MHP Owner/Operator and such modifications and additional incremental costs will be the sole responsibility of the MHP Owner/Operator requesting party and will be handled under SCE’s current applicable Tariffs. Request for service modification may be made by MH Owners directly to SCE in resident-owned MHP and as permitted by the MHP’s Rules and Regulations. Such requests for “To-the- Meter” services may require a separa...
Engineering and Planning. 6.1.1. PG&E will design and install the new “To-the-Meter” electric and/or gas distribution and service system for the MHP to meet current PG&E design standards and applicable codes, regulations and requirements based on the most economic, convenient and efficient service route.
6.1.2. PG&E will prepare a preliminary design package for the new electric and/or gas system and prepare all necessary land rights documents.
