Common use of Utility Work Clause in Contracts

Utility Work. The Phase Developer is responsible for identifying Utility Work that will need to be performed to deliver the Phase, including design, construction and coordination. Specific requirements for Utility Work are in Exhibit 6 Article 7 (Utility Coordination). MDOT will strive to enter into agreements with certain Utility Owners for the P3 Program or the Phase as applicable (the “Utility Framework Agreements”) prior to the Effective Date of the Phase P3 Agreement. The Utility Framework Agreements set out a general approach to Utility Relocations. It is expected that additional agreements will need to be entered into with some or all of the Utility Owner setting out details of the relevant utility relocation work (each a "Utility Agreement") either to supplement the Utility Framework Agreement with additional detail or because no Utility Framework Agreements is entered into. The Phase Developer shall, assist MDOT in completing the negotiations to allow MDOT to execute a Utility Agreement with a majority of the affected Utility Owners prior to the Phase Developer establishing the Design- Build Price. At a minimum, the Phase Developer shall work with MDOT to complete Utility Agreements with WSSC, PEPCO, Washington Gas, Verizon, Century Link, Fiberlight, Crown Castle, AT&T, Zayo and City of Rockville DPW.
