Appendix F. Civil Engineering Report Part 2

       whichever the least. Regardless of whether the surface is being raised or lowered, any work impacting the
       depth of cover of Telstra underground assets should not commence before consultation with Telstra Network
       Integrity representatives, to discuss the possibility of ‘protection’ or relocation (including lowering of the
       asset)”.

      For clearance distances relating to Telstra pillars, cabinets and RIMs/RCMs please contact Telstra Plan
       Services.

      If Telstra plant is situated wholly or partly where you plan to work (i.e. in conflict), then Telstra's Network Integrity
       Group must be contacted to discuss possible engineering solutions.
       Please phone 1800 810 443 or email [email protected]

      You are not permitted to relocate or alter or repair any Telstra assets or network under any circumstances.

       It is a criminal offence under the Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cth) to tamper or interfere with
       communication facilities owned by a carrier. Heavy penalties may apply for breach of this prohibition,
       and any damages suffered, or costs incurred by Telstra as a result of any such unauthorised works
       may be claimed against you.

       Only Telstra and its contractors may access and conduct works on Telstra’s network (including its plant and
       assets). This requirement is to ensure that Telstra can protect the integrity of its network, avoid disruption to
       services and ensure that the relocation meets Telstra’s requirements.

      If Telstra relocation or protection works are part of the agreed solution, then payment to Telstra for the cost of
       this work shall be the responsibility of the principal developer, constructor or person for whom the work is
       performed. The principal developer or constructor will be required to provide Telstra with the details of their
       proposed work showing how Telstra's plant is to be accommodated and these details must be approved by
       the Regional Network Integrity Manager prior to the commencement of site works.
       Please phone 1800 810 443 or email [email protected]

      You will be held responsible for all plant damage that occurs or any impacts to Telstra’s network as a result of
       your construction activities. This includes interfering with plant, conducting unauthorised modification works
       and interfering with Telstra’s assets in a way that prevents Telstra from accessing or using its assets in the
       future.

      Telstra reserves all rights to recover compensation for loss or damage to its cable network or other property
       including consequential losses.
