further submit a surety bond or a completed works insurance policy
guaranteeing the restoration of the excavation in a good and safe
condition as near as may be to its original condition as determined
by the Administrative Authority for a period of twelve (12) months
after work has been done, usual wear and tear accepted.
[1973 Code § 12-10.7; Ord. No. 4-1981]
a.
Guard Lights. It shall be the duty of every person cutting or making
an excavation in or upon any public place to place and maintain barriers
and warning devices necessary for the safety of the general public
as follows:
Barriers and warning lights shall conform to the requirements
set forth in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (M.U.T.C.D.)
Warning lights to indicate a hazard to traffic shall be in use from
one-half hour before sunset of each day to one-half hour after sunrise
on the next day.
b.
Traffic Flow. The permittee shall take appropriate measures to assure
that during the performance of the excavation work, traffic conditions
shall be maintained at all times as near normal as practical so as
to cause as little inconvenience as possible to the occupants of the
adjacent properties and to the general public.
1.
When traffic conditions permit, the Administrative Authority may
by written approval permit the closing of streets and alleys to all
traffic for a period of time prescribed by him, if in his opinion
it is necessary. The written approval of the Administrative Authority
may require that the permittee give notification to various public
agencies and to the general public. In such cases, such written approval
shall not be valid until such notice is given. The permittee shall
route and control traffic including its own vehicles as directed by
the Township Police Department. The following steps must be taken
before any street may be closed or restricted to traffic:
(a)
The permittee must receive the approval of the Township Police
Department.
(b)
The permittee must notify the Chief of the Fire Department and
First Aid Squad of any street closed.
(c)
Upon completion of the construction work, the permittee must
notify the Police Department, the Fire and First Aid Departments before
traffic is redirected to its normal flow.
(d)
Where a flagman or flagmen are deemed necessary by the Administrative
Authority and/or the Police Department, they shall be furnished by
the permittee at his own expense. If, in the opinion of the Administrative
Authority or the Police Department, the permittee is not maintaining
sufficient traffic operation, a Township Police Officer may be directed
to perform such traffic direction by the Administrative Authority
and the cost of same will be borne by the permittee.
2.
Warning signs shall be placed far enough in advance of the construction
operation to alert traffic within a public street, and cones or other
approved devices shall be placed to channel traffic, in accordance
with the instructions of the Administrative Authority.
[1973 Code § 12-10.8]
The excavation work shall be performed and conducted so as not
to interfere with access to fire hydrants, fire stations, fire escapes,
water gates, underground vaults, valve housing structures, and all
other vital equipment as designated by the Administrative Authority.
[1973 Code § 12-10.9]
The permittee shall maintain safe crossings for two lanes of
vehicle traffic at all street intersections where possible, and safe
crossings for pedestrians at intervals of not more than three hundred
(300) feet. If any excavation is made across any public street, alley
or sidewalk, adequate crossings shall be maintained for vehicles and
for pedestrians. If the street is not wide enough to hold the excavated
material without using part of the adjacent sidewalk, a passageway
of at least one-half of the sidewalk width shall be maintained along
such sidewalk line.
[1973 Code § 12-10.10]
Whenever the use of a substructure is abandoned, except the
abandonment of service lines designated to serve single properties,
the person owning, using, controlling or having an interest therein
shall, within thirty (30) days after such abandonment, file with the
Administrative Authority a statement in writing giving in detail the
location of the substructure so abandoned. If the abandoned substructure
is in the way, or subsequently becomes in the way, of an installation
of the Township or any other public body, which installation is pursuant
to a governmental function, the owner shall remove such abandoned
substructure or pay the cost of its removal during the course of excavation
for construction of the facility by the Township or any other public
body.
[1973 Code § 12-10.11]
The permittee shall at all times and at his own expense preserve
and protect from injury any adjoining property by providing proper
foundations and taking other measures suitable for the purpose; and
each permittee shall conduct and carry out excavation work in such
manner as to avoid unnecessary inconvenience and annoyance to the
general public and occupants of neighboring property. The permittee
shall take appropriate measures to reduce to the fullest extent practicable,
in the performance of the excavation work, noise, dust and unsightly
debris. Between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. he shall not
use, except with the express written permission of the Administrative
Authority or in case of an emergency as herein otherwise provided,
any tool, appliance or equipment producing noise of sufficient volume
to disturb the sleep or repose of occupants of the neighboring property.
[1973 Code § 12-10.12]
The following shall apply:
a.
All material excavated from trenches and piled adjacent to the trench,
or in any street, shall be piled and maintained in such manner as
not to endanger those working in the trench, pedestrians or users
of the streets, and so that as little inconvenience as possible is
caused to those using streets and adjoining property. Where the confines
of the area being excavated are too narrow to permit the piling of
excavated material beside the trench, such as might be the case in
a narrow alley, the Administrative Authority shall have the authority
to require that the permittee haul the excavated material to a storage
site and then rehaul it to the trench site at the time of backfilling.
It shall be the permittee's responsibility to secure the necessary
permission and make all necessary arrangements for all required storage
and disposal sites.
b.
All trench and tunnel excavations and construction shall conform
to the safety requirements for shoring, bracing and ladders in trenches
in accordance with State Trench and Tunnel Construction Safety Orders,
as they now or may hereafter exist.
c.
All material excavated shall be laid compactly along the side of
the trench and kept trimmed so as to cause as little inconvenience
as reasonably possible to vehicular and pedestrian traffic, or as
specified by the Administrative Authority. Whenever necessary, in
order to expedite the flow of traffic or to abate the dirt nuisance,
toe boards or bins may be required by the Administrative Authority
to prevent the spreading of dirt into traffic lanes.
[1973 Code § 12-10.13]
As the excavation work progresses, all streets shall be thoroughly
cleaned of all rubbish, excess earth, rock or other debris resulting
from such work. All clean-up operations at the location of such excavation
shall be accomplished at the expense of the permittee and shall be
completed to the satisfaction of the Administrative Authority. From
time to time, as may be ordered by the Administrative Authority and
in any event immediately after completion of such work, the permittee
shall, at his own expense, clean up and remove all refuse and unused
materials of any kind resulting from such work and, upon failure to
do so within twenty-four (24) hours after having been notified to
do so by the Administrative Authority, the work may be done by the
Administrative Authority and the cost thereof charged to the permittee.
The permittee shall also be liable for the cost thereof under the
surety bond provided hereunder.
[1973 Code § 12-10.14]
The permittee shall maintain all gutters free and unobstructed
for the full depth of the adjacent curb and for at least one (1) foot
in width from the face of such curb at the gutter line. Whenever a
gutter crosses an intersecting street, an adequate waterway shall
be provided and be at all times maintained.
The permittee shall make provisions to take care of all surplus
water, muck, silt, slickings, or other runoff pumped from excavations
or resulting from slicking or other operations and shall be responsible
for any damage resulting from his failure to so provide.
[1973 Code § 12-10.15]
The following rules shall apply:
a.
Approved cutting of bituminous pavement surface ahead of excavations
will be required by the Administrative Authority to confine pavement
damage to the limits of the trench.
b.
Saw cutting of Portland cement concrete may be required by the Administrative
Authority when the nature of the work or the condition of the street
warrants. When required, the depth of the cut shall not be less than
one (1) inch in depth; however, depths greater than (1) one inch may
be required by the Administrative Authority when circumstances warrant.
Saw cutting may be required by the Administrative Authority outside
of the limits of the excavation over cave-outs, overbreaks and small
floating sections.
c.
Heavy duty pavement breakers may be prohibited by the Administrative
Authority when the use endangers existing substructures or other property.
d.
Sections of sidewalks shall be removed to the nearest score line
or joint.
e.
Unstable pavement shall be removed over cave-outs and overbreaks,
and the subgrade shall be treated as the main trench.
f.
Pavement edges shall be trimmed to a vertical face and neatly aligned
with the center line of the trench.
g.
Cutouts outside of the trench lines must be normal or parallel to
the trench line.
h.
Boring or other methods to prevent cutting of new pavement may be
required by the Administrative Authority.
i.
The permittee shall not be required to repair pavement damage existing
prior to excavation unless his cut results in small floating sections
that may be unstable, in which case the permittee shall remove and
pave the area.
[1973 Code § 12-10.16; Ord. No. 12-1986]
a.
All backfilling shall be done with a clean cohesionless soil, such
as sand or gravel, free from lumps and stone, or, if approved by the
Administrative Authority, other material of equivalent compacting
qualities. Broken pavement, large stones, roots and other debris shall
not be used in the backfill. Such backfill shall be done in a manner
that will permit the restoration of the surface to a density condition
not less than that existing prior to excavation, unless otherwise
specified. Backfill is required to be placed in lifts no greater than
three (3) feet in depth if a Hydro Hammer or other heavy compactor
is to be used; where hand compaction is to be done, the depth of the
lift is limited to four (4) inches. In the latter case the number
of men backfilling shall not exceed the number engaged in compacting.
The Administrative Authority may require soil tests to be furnished
by a recognized soil-testing laboratory or registered professional
engineer specializing in soil mechanics when, in his opinion, backfill
for any excavation is not being adequately compacted. In order for
the resurfacing to be permitted, such tests must show that the backfill
material meets the minimum requirements as prescribed by the Administrative
Authority. All expenses of such tests shall be borne by the permittee.
b.
Backfilling of a trench above five (5) feet shall be filled with
quarry blend stone two (2) inch aggregate. Any backfilling below five
(5) feet shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Authority
consistent with paragraph a. above. Prior to the installation of bituminous
surfaces, ninety-five (95%) percent compaction of backfill materials
must be achieved. Backfilling a trench requires replacement of all
removed material with dirty stone, except for six (6) inches of sand
around piping. Black topping shall be (6) inches of stabilized base
and one and one-half (1 1/2) inches of top. All cuts to be sealed
between new and old black top. All trenches shall be cut square and
out to width of widest part of trench.
Prior to backfilling a trench, either the Road Foreman or the
Construction Official must be notified.
[1973 Code § 12-10.17; Ord. No. 4-1981]
a.
Permanent resurfacing of the street excavation shall be made by the
permittee.
b.
In special situations allowed by the Administrative Authority the
permittee may maintain temporary pavement for a period not to exceed
thirty (30) days after all backfilling is completed. Any temporary
pavement used shall be kept safe for pedestrian and vehicular traffic
as directed by the Administrative Authority. Temporary paving of a
quality unacceptable to the Administrative Authority shall be removed
and replaced with acceptable material of the type designated by the
Administrative Authority.
[1973 Code § 12-10.17.1; Ord. No. 4-1981]
a.
Prior to the placement of the base course of pavement and the surface
course, the subgrade shall be inspected and approved by the Administrative
Authority. All excavations shall be restored as follows:
1.
A minimum of four (4) inches of bituminous stabilized base course,
mix no. 5 or other mix design approved by the Administrative Authority
shall be installed as a base course, the surface of this course being
one and one-half (1/2) inches below the existing finished surface
surrounding the excavation.
2.
Over the aforementioned base course, a minimum of one and one-half
(1/2) inch FABC Type I, mix no. 5 pavement shall be used as the finished
riding surface.
The material shall be placed and compacted in lift thickness
directed by the Administrative Authority. No material shall be placed
without the proper equipment for placement and compaction being present
on the site prior to the beginning of work. The equipment required
to restore the roadway surface shall be dictated by the size of the
opening and shall be designated by the Administrative Authority.
Any surface restoration, including the pavement surface which
is not completed in accordance with the Administrative Authority's
direction, shall be removed and replaced acceptable to the Administrative
Authority.
[1973 Code § 12-10.18]
The maximum length of open trench permissible at any time shall
be in accordance with existing ordinances or regulations or as may
be specified by the Administrative Authority. No greater length shall
be open for pavement removal, excavation, construction, backfilling,
patching and all other operations without the written permission of
the Administrative Authority.
[1973 Code § 12-10.19]
Excavations shall be completed as follows:
a.
Prompt Completion. After an excavation is commenced, the permittee
shall prosecute with diligence and expedition all excavation work
covered by the excavation permit and shall promptly complete such
work so as not to obstruct the public place or travel thereon more
than is reasonably necessary.
b.
Emergency Work Time Limits. When traffic conditions, the safety or
convenience of the traveling public or the public interest require
that the excavation work be performed as emergency work, the Administrative
Authority shall have full power to order, at the time the permit is
granted, that a crew of men and adequate facilities be employed by
the permittee twenty-four (24) hours a day, to the end that such excavation
work may be completed as soon as possible.
[1973 Code § 12-10.20]
Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent the making
of such excavations as may be necessary for the preservation of life
or property, or for the location of trouble in conduit or pipe, or
for making repairs, provided that the person making such excavation
shall apply to the Administrative Authority for such a permit on the
first working day after such work is commenced.
[1973 Code § 12-10.21]
The Administrative Authority shall make such inspections as
are reasonably necessary to the enforcement of this section. The Administrative
Authority shall have the authority to promulgate and cause to be enforced
such rules and regulations as may be reasonably necessary to enforce
and carry out the intent of this section.
[1973 Code § 12-10.22]
The section shall not be construed as imposing upon the Township
or any official or employee any liability or responsibility for damages
to any person injured by the performance of any excavation work for
which an excavation permit is issued hereunder, nor shall the Township
or any official or employee thereof be deemed to have assumed any
such liability or responsibility by reason of inspections authorized
hereunder, the issuance of any permit or the approval of any excavation
work.
[1973 Code § 12-10.23]
The provisions of this section shall not be applicable to any
excavation work under the direction of competent Township authorities
by employees of the Township or by any contractor of the Township
performing work for and in behalf of the Township necessitating openings
of excavations in streets.
[1973 Code § 12-10.24; Ord. No. 4-1981]
Following the completion of the excavation and restoration of the roadway surface acceptable to the Township, an inspection will be made by the Administrative Authority to determine whether the roadway surface has been restored in an acceptable manner. Once the Administrative Authority has determined that the restoration is acceptable, he will notify the applicant and return the permit fees posted under subsection 19-1.4 herein. The amount returned shall be less any additional costs incurred by the Township to make the roadway safe, make repairs, perform traffic direction, emergency repairs, erection of barricades, inspection by the Township Engineer or other municipal authorities and any and all other work performed during the excavation or restoration of the roadway for which the Township has incurred an expense. The permit fee will be returned no sooner than thirty (30) days following the acceptance of the roadway restoration by the Township. This time period will be considered sufficient to assure that the roadway restoration and compaction of the subgrade has been sufficient and no setting of the roadway surface occurs.
It shall be the obligation of the permittee to notify the Administrative
Authority of his requests for final inspection required for the return
of a permit fee and/or surety bond.
[1973 Code § 12-10.25; Ord. No. 12-1986; Ord. No. 3-1988;

All persons owning or leasing lands lying within the geographical
limits of the Township shall keep all brush, hedges and other plant
life growing on the lands within ten (10) feet of any roadway and
within twenty-five (25) feet of the intersection of two roadways,
cut to a height of not more than two and one-half (2 1/2) feet.
[1973 Code § 4-5.2]
If any person owning or leasing lands lying within the geographical
limits of the Township shall fail, refuse or neglect to cut the brush,
hedges and other plant life to a height of not more than two and one-half
(2 1/2) feet within ten (10) days of receipt, by registered mail
or personal service of notice to that effect from the Manager of the
Township, the Township may provide for the cutting of the brush, hedges
or other plant life by or under the direction of the proper officer.
[1973 Code § 4-5.3]
The Manager is hereby empowered to administer and enforce the
provisions of this section with respect to any and all streets and
roads, owned and maintained by the Township.
[1973 Code § 4-5.4]
In all cases where brush, hedges or other plant life is cut
from any lands in the Township by or under direction of the Chief
of Police of the Township, the Manager shall certify the cost of the
cutting to the Township Council which shall examine the certificate
and if found correct shall cause the cost to be charged against the
lands, or in the event that such cost is excessive, to cause the reasonable
cost thereof to be charged against the lands. The amount charged shall
become a lien upon the lands and shall be added to and become and
form part of the taxes next to be assessed and levied upon such lands,
the same to bear interest at the same rate as other taxes and shall
be collected and enforced by the same officers and in the same manner
as taxes.
