with said pipes, and also for the necessary house connections and
branches with and leading into main or lateral sewers; provided, that
in no case, except as a sanitary measure of which the Supervisors
shall be the judge, shall the Supervisors require such house connections
to be extended further from such sewers, or from such gas, water,
or other pipes, or conduits, than to the inner line of the curbstone
of such street. The Supervisors may, after notice to all companies,
corporations, persons, and owners affected, and in default of compliance
therewith, cause said pipes to be laid, renewed, or repaired, and
said connections made, and collect the cost of paving, and repairing
all pipes and pipe connections, from the companies, corporations,
or persons owning or operating the said gas, water, and other pipes
or conduits, with interest; and the cost of the sewer connections
shall be a first lien against the land for whose benefit such connections
are made. A separate lien may be filed therefor, or such sewer connection
cost may be included in any lien filed for the cost of such street
improvement, and the lien and the proceedings thereon shall be as
in the case of other municipal liens. [1931, June 23, P.L. 932, XXIX,

It is acknowledged that field conditions occasionally necessitate
revision of the utility relocation plan. It shall be the responsibility
of the utility to report and justify such revisions, to correct any
data on file with the Engineer. The utilities are required to obtain
the contractors concurrence prior to such revisions within the right-of-way
of the project under construction. Minor modifications of the relocation
plan may be made without prior approval of the Engineer. All such
changes shall be brought to the attention of the project engineer
and shall be noted in the daily inspection report.
