The OSHA requirements in this section must be included on the plan sets and specifications given to contractors. (5) Building on easements. There shall be no additional permanent or temporary buildings allowed within the easement area, without prior written approval from Xcel Energy. (6) Fuel and refueling on easements. There shall be no fuel tanks stored or refueling of vehicles and equipment within the easement. (7) Streetlights and signs on easements. If there are to be streetlights, signboards, identification signs or any other type of non-building structure within the easement, detailed plans must be submitted to Xcel Energy prior to construction for review and approval to verify compliance with electrical code clearances prior to construction start. Metallic structures must be properly grounded. The same working clearance criteria as stated in paragraph (4) also applies, for equipment used to erect and install light standards, sign boards, etc. Any metallic structure, pole, wire or item placed in the vicinity of a high-voltage transmission line will have the potential to become electrically charged due to electrical induction. The development of an electric charge results in a potential difference between the metal installation and the ground, which can result in electrical shocks when the item is touched. Placement of such metallic installation should take into consideration the shock potential during the; construction, intended use AND future maintenance activities. Items which become charged must be connected to a grounding rod or grounding system to prevent shocks. (8) Notification. Prior to the start of construction and following project completion, the requestor or contractor must notify Xcel Energy.
