Implosion permitting procedures

Step 1

Step 2 (duration—one day)

The OUC will distribute this to the membership for Information Retrieval and Existing Facility Protection, requesting a response regarding the location of facilities and amount and cost of work required to allow implosion.

 

Step 3 (duration—30 days)

As responses are received, the Demolition Requestor may secure a status of the review from the OUC.

 

Step 4 (duration—one day)

1.) Prepare a dimensioned plot plan indicating the location of all the adjacent public way facilities;

2.) Meet with all affected utility owners to arrange for any work which must be performed; and

3.) Obtain a letter from all utility owners indicating the type of work required (e.g., remove 3 ft. of service connection at main and cap main, etc.) and that the work has been completed or turned over to the Demolition Requestor to perform

 

Step 6 (duration—3 days)

The Demolition Requestor shall submit all the information required in Step 5 to CDOT’s Division of Infrastructure Management (DIM). DIM will review the information and establish the monitoring required in the public way.
