The pre -excavation condition of the right of way; the remaining life expectancy of the right of way affected by the excavation; 4.

The likelihood that the particular method of restoration would be effective in slowing the depreciation of the right of way that would otherwise take place. D. Guarantees: By choosing to restore the right of way itself, the permittee guarantees its work and shall maintain it for 36 months following its completion.
