Pa one call
Pa one call
(OP)
Hello, I was hoping to get some help about PA one calls, or just one calls in general, because I'm very new at this.
Regarding the design notification call.
If the site will get spray painted or marked by the facility owners after the designer calls, be it 90 days or more before final design, to see where existing facilities lie, why should the excavator have to call again, wouldn't the facility markings still be present on site when it's time for the excavator to do the work.
Also, what is meant by lawful dates of the contractor?
Thank you!

RE: Pa one call
Because a lot of things can happen in 90, or more, days. Errors can be corrected, interfering utilities may be moved, new facilities installed, your design may be changed by you or someone else, marks may be obliterated, etc.
good luck

Anyway, if you're designing a project the utility is only providing plates. They're not going to do any field mark out; you'd need to hire someone who does SUE.

You can get around this by having the the owner, municipality, or a contractor make the one call request.

It has really helped.
It's been a hectic couple of weeks, so I have not been able to respond!
