Utilities Undergrounding Program: E-News #8

delcerro-Project Block7cc

July 2011
CORRECTIONNOTICES Currently, there are 28 residences that need to make corrections to their services or properties in the 7CC Project Block. Most of these corrections are minor and are the responsibility of the property owner. Corrections need to be completed before we can cut customers over to the new underground system. Customers who are not cut-over to the new underground system risk loss of service when the overhead system is removed. If you need to make a correction to your property in order to pass final inspection, you will receive a door hanger or letter from a City of San Diego inspector. The door hanger and letter have a description of the correction needed. Most of these corrections are minor. Please do not delay in contacting the inspector whose name and phone number appear on these notices, so that the problem can be resolved. SAfETY If you see anyone on your property that is not visibly wearing an identification badge, or if they are in a vehicle that is not marked with a contractor or utility company name, please call the Information Line at (619) 533-3841 or the San Diego Police Department. The construction crew must travel in marked vehicles and have proper identification at all times on the jobsite. CONTACTUS In the event that you are not satisfied or pleased with the work that was done on your property or your street, please let us know. Please do not attempt to make corrections, adjustments or improvements yourself. We promise to work with you on reaching a solution or creating an outcome that meets your needs and ours in this process. We will not be able to switch your services to the new underground system if any modifications were done to our work. If you are unsure about the status of the work that has taken place on your property or your street, contact us at: Information Line: (619) 533-3841 Email: undergrounding@sandiego.gov

PANELANDTRENCHINGACTIvITIES Panel work by Southern Contracting began in September 2010. Panel work is when electricians prepare the electrical panel at your home to receive underground service. Approximately two weeks prior to any work being performed on your property, you should receive a door hanger with the electrical contractors name and phone number on it. If you have any questions or concerns about the work, please do not hesitate to contact the electrical contractor. To date, approximately 98% of the paneling work has been completed. You have likely seen trenching crews working in the streets. Trench work is approximately 65% complete in Project Block 7CC. We ask for your patience as they complete this work, as it can be disruptive and distracting. Approximately two weeks prior to the start of the trench work on your property and in the street, you will receive a door hanger with the trenching contractors name and phone number on it. If you have any questions or concerns about the work, please do not hesitate to contact the contractor.

Trench work on the 5600 block of Meredith Avenue.

CABLING,CUT-OvERANDOvERHEADLINEREMOvAL After all trenching operations have been completed by our contractor, the cabling portion of the work will begin. Another contractor will perform the cabling work. Cabling involves technicians placing new utility lines in the new conduits, so that the new lines can be energized and brought into service. Once the new system has been energized, the process to cut-over customers from overhead to underground services will begin. Once customers have been cut-over, the overhead lines will be removed. We anticipate this process will move very swiftly and its not nearly as disruptive or distracting as the trenching work, which is why you may not even see us working. Contact Information
