           1. Responsibilities – (When Working in the Vicinity of Energex Plant)
 Everyone has a legal “Duty of Care” that must be observed, particularly when working in the vicinity of electrical plant. Electrical plant includes
 underground cables, conduits and other associated underground equipment. When discharging this “Duty of Care” in relation to Energex plant, the
 following points must be considered:


 1. It is the responsibility of the architect, consulting engineer, developer, and head contractor in the project planning stages to design for minimal impact
    and protection of Energex plant.
 2. It is the constructor’s responsibility to:
      a)    Anticipate and request plans of Energex plant for a particular location at a reasonable time before construction begins.
      b)    Visually locate Energex plant by hand or vacuum excavation where construction activities may damage or interfere with Energex plant.
      c)    Contact Energex (see above for details) if Energex plant is wholly or partly affected by planned construction activities.
      d)    For proposed excavations within 500mm of any 33kV & 110/132kV underground networks, please allow a minimum of 20 working days’ notice
            in your construction program for Energex to review proposed designs, provide comment and allow some time for any required modifications to
            be made.
      e)    To notify Energex if the information provided is found to be not accurate or assets are found on site that are not recorded on the Energex
            DBYD plans.
      f)    Read and understand all the information and disclaimers provided
 IMPORTANT NOTES:
 Plans and or details provided by Energex are current for one month from the date of dispatch and should be disposed of by shredding or any
     other secure disposal method after use. A new DBYD enquiry must be made for proposed works/activities to be undertaken outside of the 30 day
     period.
    As the alignment and boundaries of road ways with other properties (and roads within road ways) frequently change, the alignm ents and boundaries
     contained within Energex plans and maps will frequently differ from present alignments and boundaries “on the ground”. Accordingly, in every case
     where it appears that alignments and boundaries have shifted, or new road ways have been added, the constructor should obtain confirmation of
     the actual position of Energex cables and pipelines under the road ways. In no case should the constructor rely on statements of third parties in
     relation to the position of Energex cables and pipelines. It is the applicant’s responsibility to accurately locate all services as part of the design
     and/or prior to excavation.
    Energex does not provide information on private underground installations, including consumers’ mains that may run from Energex mains onto
     private property. Assets located on private property are the responsibility of the owner for identification and location.
     Energex retains copyright of all plans and details provided in connection with your request.
    Energex plans or other details are provided for the use of the applicant, its servants, or agents, and shall not be used for any unauthorised purpose.
    Energex plans are circuit diagrams or pipe indication diagrams only and indicate the presence of plant in the general vicinit y of the geographical
     area shown. Exact ground cover and alignments cannot be given with any certainty; as such levels can change over time.
    Energex, its servants or agents shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused or occasioned by the use of plans and or details so supplied to the
     applicant, its servants and agents, and the applicant agrees to indemnify Energex against any claim or demand for any such loss or damage.
    The constructor is responsible for all plant damages when works commence prior to obtaining Energex plans, or failure to foll ow agreed instructions,
     or failure to demonstrate all reasonable measures were taken to prevent the damage once plans were received from Energex.
    Energex reserves all rights to recover compensation for loss or damage caused by interference or damage, inclu ding consequential loss and
     damages to its cable network, or other property.
    All underground conduits are presumed to contain asbestos. Refer to “Code of Practice for the Management and Control of Asbestos in Workplaces
     [NOHSC: 2018 (2005)]
    Plans provided by Energex do not show the presence of any Overhead Network
    In addition to underground cables marked on attached plan there maybe underground Earth Conductors in the vicinity of the nominated work area(s)
     that are not marked on the plans.
    There may also be other buried assets such as tanks for fluid filled cables that do not appear on GIS plots but are shown on detailed as constructed
     drawings.
    Being aware of your obligations in [s 304] Excavation work— underground essential services information under the Work Health and Safety
     Regulation 2011, Chapter 6 Construction work, Part 6.3 Duties of person conducting business or undertaking. This includes but is not limited to
     taking reasonable steps to obtain the current information & providing this information to persons engaged to carry out the excavation work. For
     further information please refer to: - http://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/LEGISLTN/SLS/2011/11SL240.pdf
    Energex plans are designed to be printed in colour and as an A4 Landscape orientation.
