OA' „! Pit OLYMPIC PIPE LINE COMPANY/ BP PIPELINES NA INC GENERAL CONSTRUCTION & RIGHT OF WAY REQUIREMENTS Olympic Pipe Line Company ( "OPLC "), which is operated by BP Pipelines (North America) Inc. ( "60"), is committed to environmental stewardship and maintaining the safety of its employees, contractors aria the general public. The pipelines BP /OPLC operates transport various liquids at high pressure, and do sd very safely each and every day. There are however, potential hazards associated with construction or excavation work around pipelines. As a result of these potential hazards, and in compliance with the requirements impbsed upon BP /OPLC as an industry regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation and Office of Pipeline Safety, the following list of general requirements for working on the Pipeline rights -of -way has been compiled. Print Date: 10119rd006 Revision Dam: 1(182006 frig¢ I of3 Excavation Specific Re q u' v em n is • No excavation or construction activity will be permitted in the vicinity of the pipeline(s) until all appropdate communicatiens have been made with OPLC's field projects-and engineering personnel. • There shall be no excavation or backfilling within the pipeline right of way for any reason without a representative from OPLC on site staling permission. • In some instances, excavation and other construction activities around certain pipelines can be conducted safely only when the pipeline operating pressure has been reduced. • Contractors are therefore cautioned that excavation which exposes or significantly red0cesahe cover bver a pipeline may have to be delayed until the reduced pressure is achieved. General Construction ActrNties • The contractor shall not be permitted to transport construction materials or equipment longitudinally over the pipeline. • Any required relocation or encasement of the pipeline(s) will be at the developers expense. • Development grading should not remove any of the existing ground cover from; or add excessive fill over the pipeline(s). OPLC's prior approval to add fill is required. • Where it is necessary for construction equipment (i.e. tractors, backhoes, dump trucks etc.) or egdipment transporting construction materials to cross the pipeline to gain access to the job site, a crossing shall be constructed -M a 90 degree angle to the pipeline. The contractor will be responsible for protectifig the pipeline depending on depth, soil conditions and type of equipment using either fill or steel shee611b for protection. Other means of temporary crossing to protect the pipeline may be considered by OPLC after evaluation and approval by OPLC engineering. • No track type construction equipment shall be permitted to pivot or turn directly over the top of the pipelihe. • A scraper or pan type tractor shall not be used for removal of soil within ten feet (10') of the centerline bf the pipeline. Rubber tire or small track type equipment is an acceptable alternative. • A sheepsfoot roller shall not be used for compaction purposes within five feet (5') of the centerline of the pipeline. • No vibratory rollers shall be used within three feet (3') of the centerline of the pipeline unfit the compacted cover over the pipeline has reached a depth of three and one -half feet (3 Ys). Parking Lots, Roads, Driveways, Fences and Structures • No permanent structures may be constructed on the pipeline right of way: • No roads or fences shall run parallel to the pipeline within the pipeline right of way. Roads and fehces shall cross the pipeline right of way at, or as near to, a 90 degree angle as is feasible. In no instance shall the angle of the crossing be less than 45 degrees. Fence posts must maintain a minimum three feet (3') clearance ofathe pipeline(s) when crossing the easement. • There shag be a minimum vertical separation of two feet (2') between the pipeline and any undergl'bund structure. • A minimum of five feet (5') of cover is required for all road crossings, and three feet 0 for driveways; however a stress factor calculation may be needed to determine the actual amount of cover required depending on soil conditions and other circumstances. Print Date: 10 /192006 Pdji 2 of3 Revision Date: 1/182006 - • Proposals for parking akin lot construction on the i e eline right of way are discouraged. Asphalt wd'� P P 9 P P 9 Y 9 P he g may be permitted as an exception under certain conditions with an agreement executed by the pFd(lerty, owner and OPLC. The agreement grants OPLC the right to excavate within the pavement area for any pipeline maintenance that may be necessary in the future and acknowledges the property owner 0 the party responsible for the expense of pavement replacement. If a parking lot is permitted by OpLC a minimum of four feet (4') of cover will be required. However OPLC will evaluate each proposal on an individual basis, and may impose additional requirements. • Concrete pavement is discouraged; and in most instances will not be allowed. • A minimum of three feet (3') of cover is required for-all drainage ditches. - • No structures such as manholes, catch basins, thrust blocks or fire hydrants shall be located over the pipeline. A minimum horizontal clearance of ten feet (10') is required between the structure and pipeline. Foreign Line or Utility Crossings • All foreign lines shall cross the pipeline right -of -way at, or as near to, a 90 degree angle as is feasible. In no instance shall the angle of the crossing be less than 45 degrees. • In no instance shall the foreign line be placed parallel to the pipeline within the pipeline right- of -wdy: • The foreign line shall cross under the pipeline with at least two feet (2') of vertical separation unless the pipeline is at a prohibitive depth. In such cases, OPLC personnel will review and evaluate the prdpbsed crossing ocation g to tletemnine if it will be allowable for the foreign line to cross above. • If the foreign line is a telecommunications cable, power cable or similar in nature, the foreign line shall be placed in Schedule 40 PVC conduit, or greater, for a linear distance extending ten feet (10') on either side of centerline of the pipeline. In the case of a power cable it shall be encased in red -dyed cdtierete for a linear distance of ten feet (10') on either side of centerline of pipeline. -A utility, with a cathadically protected foreign line which crosses or is placed adjacent to OPLC's pipeline(s) must install a test point and perform interference testing between the utility and 6PLC. Please contact OPLC's Corrosion Technician by calling our main office at (425) 226.8683. • Below ground warning tape shall be placed in the ditch line above the foreign line. The warning tape shall be placed approximately one foot (1') below the final surface grade /elevation. The warning tape shall extend for a linear distance of ten feet (10') on either side of the centerline of the pipeline. Landscape and Vegetation • No trees are allowed on the pipeline right of way. OPLC may permit the installation of limited landscaping and minor shrubbery plantings wither verbal communication. For major development, landscaping tans must first p g p be submitted in writing to OPLC for review and approval. Any plantings that restrict efficient aerial inspection or limit access to the easement area will be considered an interfbrence and must be addressed accordingly OPLC reserves the right to impose further stipulations or requirements consistent with each individual easement or situation. Should you anticipate any problems regarding these requirements please contact OPLC's' Field Project Office at (425)235 -7767. Print Date: 10/192006 - pdge 3 or Revision Date: 1 /182006 R- 331236 av?
