ESSENTIAL PRECAUTIONS and APPROACH DISTANCES:

NOTE: If the following clearances cannot be maintained, please contact Telstra Plan Services (see above for details) for
advice on how best to resolve this situati on.

1.   On receipt of plans and sketches and before commencing excavation work or similar activities near Telstra's plant, carefully
locate this plant first to avoid damage. Undertake prior manual exposure such as potholing when intending to excavate or work
closer to Telstra plant than the following approach distances.

Where Telstra's plant is in an area where road and footpaths are well defined by kerbs or other features a minimum clear distance
of 600mm must be maintained from where it could be reasonably presumed that plant would reside.

In non established or unformed reserves and terrain, this approach distance must be at least 1.5 metres.

In country/rural areas which may have wider variations in reasonably presumed plant presence, the following minimum approach
distances apply:

      a)     Parallel to major plant: 10 metres (for IEN, optic fibre and copper cable over 300 pairs)
      b)     Parallel to other plant: 5 metres

NOTE: Even manual pot-holing needs to be undertaken with extreme care, commonsense and employing techniques least likely to
damage cables. For example, orientate shovel blades and trowels parallel to the cable rather than digging across the cable.

If construction work is parallel to Telstra plant, then careful hand digging or using non destructive water jet method (pot-holing) at
least every 5m is required to establish the location of all plant, hence confirming nominal locations before work can commence.

2.   Maintain the following minimum clearance between construction activity and actual location of Telstra Plant.



 JackhammerslPneumatic Breakers                              Not within 1.Om of actual location.
 Vibrating Plate or Wacker Packer Compactor                  Not within 0.5m of Telstra ducts.
                                                             300mm compact clearance cover before compactor can be used across
                                                             Telstra ducts.
 Boring Equipment                                           Not within 2.Om of actual location.
 (in-line, horizontal and vertical)                         Constructor to hand dig or use non-destructive water jet method (pot-hole)
                                                            and expose plant.
 Heavy Vehicle Traffic (over 3 tonnes)                      Not to be driven across Telstra ducts (or plant)
                                                            with less than 600mm cover.
                                                            Constructor to check depth via hand digging.
 Mechanical Excavators, Farm ploughing and Tree             Not within 1.Om of actual location.
 Removal                                                    Constructor to hand dig or use non-destructive water jet method (pot-hole)
                                                            and expose plant.




All Telstra pits and manholes should be a minimum of 1.2m in from the back of kerb after the completion of your work.

All Telstra conduit should have the following minimum depth of cover after the completion of your work:-

     • Footway 450mm
     • Roadway 450mm at drain invert and 600mm at road centre crown

For clearance distances relating to Teistra pillars, cabinets and RIMs/RCMs please contact Telstra Plan Services (see above for
details).

FURTHER ASSISTANCE:

Assistance can be obtained by contacting Telstra Plan Services

Where on-site location is provided, the owner is responsible for all hand digging or use non-destructive water jet method (pot-
holing) to visually locate and expose Telstra plant.

If plant location plans or visual location of Telstra plant by digging reveals that the location of Telstra plant is situated wholly or partly
where the owner plans to work, then Telstra's Network Integrity Group must be contacted through Telstra Plan Services to
discuss possible engineering solutions.

NOTE:

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 or constructor. 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.
