Road Construction
There are several steps that must take place before a power line can be moved due to the construction of new roads.
- County representatives should meet with a staking engineer (Allen Green or Dwayne Douglas) to discuss the project.
- The county is responsible for obtaining signed easements from property owners.
- Irwin EMC right of way should be cleared an additional 20 feet beyond the marked road stakes. The right of way can be cleared through Irwin EMC on a contract basis or through the county.
- A contract will be drawn including an estimated price for all work performed. The contract for moving the power line must be signed before beginning construction.
