Utilities   Undergrounding   Program:   E-News   #18sherman   heights- Project   Block  8g October 2012

CORRECTION    NOTICESCurrently, there are 19 residences in Job 1 and 11 residences in Job 2 that need to make corrections to their services or properties. 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 descrip-tion 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.

SAFETYIf 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 Informa-tion 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.

CONTACT   USIn 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 reach-ing 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

UTILITIES   UNDERGROUNDING   PROGRAM   VIDEOA video about the Utilities Undergrounding Program can be seen by visiting our web site at www.sandiego.gov/undergrounding and clicking on video. By watching it, you can see all the processes associated with our work and gain a better understanding of what is involved in completing those processes.

We thank you in advance for your patience and support while we complete the Utilities Undergrounding Program project in the Sherman Heights community.

 PANEL  AND  TRENCHING   ACTIVITIESPanel work by Southern Contracting began in December 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 contractor’s 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.

Trench work is 100% complete in Project Block 8G.

CABLING,  CUT-OVER  AND   OVERHEAD   LINE   REMOVAL  After all trenching operations were completed, the cabling portion of the work began. 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 over-head lines will be removed. We anticipate this process will move very swiftly and it’s not nearly as disruptive or distracting as the trenching work, which is why you may not even see us working. A door hanger will be left prior to the contractor visiting your property. SDG&E is 100% complete with their cabling activities in Jobs 1 & 2. They are 58% complete with their cut-over activities in Job 1 and 78% complete in Job 2.

Crew members prepare to connect the new underground electrical cabling to an underground electrical vault.
