Facility planning. 



U-31P Prior to commencement of any field work, permittee shall meet 

 with the land manager and provide specifications of the oper- 

 ation including, but not limited to: (1) maps showing locations 

 of pipeline alignment, access routes, easement dimensions, and 

 equipment storage areas; (2) information concerning sizes, types, 

 and numbers of equipment to be used; and (3) a time schedule. 

 The permittee shall agree to a reasonable adjustment in order 

 to minimize the disturbance of water flows, critical plant assem-

 desirable ecological features. All activities shall be confined 

 to those areas as finalized on the attached maps. 



U-32P Following preliminary ( type of line ) alignment, the land manager 

 may conduct a field survey to inspect the specific ecological 

 characteristics of the proposed alignment. Should an important 

 or unusual ecological feature be encountered, the permittee 

 agrees to relocate the alignment in order to protect the ecolog- 

 ical feature. 



U-34P The permittee shall incorporate design criteria which restrict 

 working easement widths to the minimum area necessary for ( type

 storage. Easement width shall not exceed ( desired width ) meters, 

 unless otherwise authorized by the land manager. 



U-36P Upon completion of the project, the permittee will notify the
