Prior Coordination (Pre-ULA process) Sample Clauses

Prior Coordination (Pre-ULA process). A. Prior to submission of a ULA application by Project Co, coordination with Utility Companies shall have been performed. The ULA system is not the process through which expected coordination and Utility Conflict resolutions are achieved. Accordingly, advance dialogue with Utility Companies must precede formal ULA applications. The recommended pre-ULA process that Project Co shall perform is: ● Potential Utility Conflict location identification and investigation; ● Potential Utility Conflict notification to affected Utility Companies and the Design Team of conflicts and causation; ● Project Co development and circulation of a recommended mitigation concept to the Design Team and subsequent discussion with the affected Utility Companies; ● Perform and share additional field investigations to confirm the Utility Conflict and mitigation concept where appropriate; ● Discuss suitability of the mitigation concept with each Utility Company to eliminate objections or incorporate any improvements; ● Continue the process of design development, submission, circulation, response collection, and coordination until a mutually acceptable design is developed; and ● When mutual agreement to the pre-ULA process has been attained, recommend or proceed with formal ULA application.
