7.       EASEMENTS
         All terms and conditions of the easement are to be observed. Note that the easement takes precedence
         over all subsequent registered easement documents. Copies of the easement together with the plan of the
         Easement can be purchased from the Department of Environment & Resource Management.
8.       EXPENDITURE AND COST RECOVERY
         Should Powerlink incur costs as a result of the applicant's proposal, all costs shall be recovered from the
         applicant.


         Where Powerlink expects such costs to be in excess of $10 000.00, advanced payments may be requested.


9.       EXPLOSIVES
         Blasting within the vicinity (500 metres) of Powerlink infrastructure must comply with AS 2187. Proposed
         blasting within 100 metres of Powerlink infrastructure must be referred to Powerlink for a detailed
         assessment.
10.      BURNING OFF OR THE LIGHTING OF FIRES
         We strongly recommend that fires not be lit or permitted to burn within the transmission line corridor and in
         the vicinity of any electrical infrastructure placed on the land. Due to safety risks Powerlink’s written
         approval should be sort.
11.      GROUND LEVEL VARIATIONS
         Overhead Conductors
         Changes in ground level must not reduce statutory ground to conductor clearance distances as prescribed
         by the Electrical Safety Act 2002 and the Electrical Safety Regulation 2013.
         Underground Cables
         Any change to the ground level above installed underground cable is not permitted without express written
         agreement of Powerlink.
12.      VEGETATION
         Vegetation planted within an easement must not exceed 3.5 metres in height when fully matured. Powerlink
         reserves the right to remove vegetation to ensure the safe operation of the transmission line and, where
         necessary, to maintain access to infrastructure.
13.      INDEMNITY
         Any use of the Easement by the applicant in a way which is not permitted under the easement and which is
         not strictly in accordance with Powerlink's prior written approval is an unauthorised use. Powerlink is not
         liable for personal injury or death or for property loss or damage resulting from unauthorized use. If other
         parties make damage claims against Powerlink as a result of unauthorized use then Powerlink reserves the
         right to recover those damages from the applicant.
