ACCREDITED PLANT LOCATORS (For your area)
On-site assistance should be sought from an Accredited Plant Locator if the telecommunications plant cannot be located within
2.5 metres of the locations indicated on the drawings provided.
On-site advice should be obtained from a Telstra accredited Asset Plant Locator who is highly skilled in locating Telstra plant. In the
case where Telstra plant is outside a recognised road reserve Telstra recommends that Telstra Plan Services are contacted for
assistance prior to engaging an accredited Asset Plant Locator.
Telstra does not permit external parties (non-Telstra) to conduct work on our network. Only Telstra staff or Telstra contractors are
allowed to enter our manholes, open our pits, ducts, etc.
Please note 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.
Should your projects require cable location, you MUST engage an accredited Asset Plant Locator (a list of which is provided with the
Dial Before You Dig plans). Alternatively you may seek your own accreditation through our registered training partner Coates Hire
Training which is the only approved training provider for Asset Plant Location accreditation for Telstra's network. You may contact

For the assistance of customers an accredited Asset Plant Locator can perform any of the following activities if requested to do so
by the owner:
• review Telstra's plans to assess the approximate location of Telstra plant;
• advise owners of the approximate location of Telstra plant according to the plans;
• advise owners of the best method for locating Telstra plant;
• advise owners of the hazards of unqualified persons attempting to find the exact location of Telstra plant and working in the
vicinity of Telstra plant without first locating its exact position; and
• perform trial hole explorations by hand digging (pot-holing) to expose Telstra plant with a high degree of skill, competence
and efficiency and utilising all necessary safety equipment.
A list of Accredited Plant Locators operating in your area is attached. Accredited Plant Locators are certified by Telstra to
perform the tasks listed above. Owners may engage Accredited Plant Locators to perform these services, however Telstra
does not give any warranty in relation to these services that Accredited Plant Locators are competent or experienced to
perform any other services.
The attached list provides the names and contact details for Accredited Plant Locators who service your area and can provide you
with assistance in locating Telstra plant on site. These organisations have been able to satisfy Telstra that they have a sound
knowledge of telecommunications plant and its sensitivity to disturbance; appropriate equipment for locating telecommunications
plant and competent personnel who are able to interpret telecommunications plans and sketches and understand safety issues
relevant to working around telecommunications plant. They are also able to advise you on the actions which should be taken if the
work you propose will/could result in a relocation of the telecommunications plant and/or its means of support.
We recommend that you engage the assistance of one of these Accredited Plant Locators as a step towards discharging your Duty
of Care obligations when seeking the location of Telstra's telecommunications plant.
Please Note:
• Each Accredited Plant Locator is NOT permitted to provide depth of communications plant unless physically exposed by hand
digging.
• The details of any contract, agreement or retainer for site assistance to locate telecommunications plant shall be for you to
decide and agree with the organisation engaged. Telstra is not a party to any contract entered into between an owner and an
Accredited Plant Locator. The Accredited Plant Locators are able to provide guidance concerning the extent of site
investigations required.
• Payment for the site assistance will be your responsibility and payment details should be agreed before the engagement is
confirmed.
• Telstra does not accept any liability or responsibility for the performance of or advice given by an Accredited Plant Locator.
Accreditation is an initiative taken by Telstra towards the establishment and maintenance of competency standards.
However, performance and the advice given will always depend on the nature of the individual engagement.
• Each Accredited Plant Locator has been issued with a certificate which confirms the Accreditation. Every 2 years Telstra will
reassess the accreditation and where appropriate will issue a letter confirming the accreditation for the next 2 years. You
