A. 
Every person owning, using, controlling or having an interest in pipes, conduits, ducts, tunnels or other structures under the surface of any street, used for the purpose of supplying or conveying gas, electricity, communication impulses, water, sewage, steam, oil or any other material to or from the Borough or to or from its inhabitants, or for any other purposes, shall file with the Manager, within one year after the adoption of this chapter, a map or set of maps showing the location, size and description of all such installations. Maps or sets of maps in existence at the time of passage of this chapter may be submitted for record purposes. All installations subsequent to the passage of this chapter shall be drawn to a scale of not less than one inch to 200 feet. Map size shall be in some multiple of 8 1/2 by 11 inches, but in no case shall be larger than 34 inches by 44 inches.
B. 
Within 30 days after the first day of January of each and every year, such person shall file with the Manager a corrected map or set of maps, each drawn to scale as above, showing such installations, including all those made during the previous year, to and including the last day of such year. Provided, however, that a person may at his own option elect to provide corrected atlas sheets throughout the year, as they are available, rather than proceed as above noted.
C. 
Each map herein required shall be accompanied by an affidavit endorsed thereon, to the effect that the same correctly exhibits the details required to be shown by this section.
A. 
Whenever any pipe, conduit, duct, tunnel or other structure located under the surface of any street, or the use thereof, is abandoned, the person owning, using, controlling or having any interest therein shall, within 30 days after such abandonment, file with the Manager a statement in writing, giving in detail the location of the structure so abandoned.
B. 
Each map or set of maps filed pursuant to the provisions of this article shall show in detail the location of all such structures abandoned subsequent to the filing of the last preceding map or set of maps.
C. 
When the Borough plans to pave or improve such streets with abandoned facilities, the owner of such facilities shall be notified to remove them. If the owner shall refuse to remove such facilities, the Borough shall remove the abandoned facilities at the owner's expense. When the owner removes such facilities, the only fee charged by the Borough shall be for the cost of inspection, plus 15% as provided by § 313-10B of this chapter.
If, in the opinion of the Manager, the work to be undertaken by the permittee is such that it will affect the use of properties abutting or adjoining the project, he shall require the permittee to submit a list of the names and addresses of the owners and/or tenants of such properties. Upon receipt of such list, the Borough shall notify the affected property owners or tenants of the proposed work to be done.
The Manager shall notify, in writing, the Borough Police and Fire Departments of any street opening or excavation permit he grants which affects the flow of traffic in streets and alleys within the Borough. Such notification shall state the nature of the work to be done and the location of such project. He shall also notify the Police and Fire Departments when any openings or excavations have been closed, permitting traffic to flow thereon.
Whenever feasible, new underground pipes, lines or conduits shall be laid under sidewalks rather than under streets. The Manager shall have the power to designate such location, subject to appeal to the Hanover Borough Council. Council's decision shall be final.
The Borough Manager shall be responsible for enforcing all provisions of this chapter.
This chapter shall not be construed as imposing upon the Borough or any official or employee any liability or responsibility for damages to any person injured by the performance of any excavation work for which an excavation permit is issued hereunder; nor shall the Borough or any official or employee thereof be deemed to have assumed any such liability or responsibility by reason of inspections authorized hereunder, the issuance of any permit or the approval of any excavation work.
The Hanover Municipal Waterworks, as an independently operated department of the Borough, shall be required to obtain permits for all street excavations, furnish the certificate of insurance and the faithful performance bond, and conform to all other requirements and provisions of this chapter; provided, that the waterworks shall be exempt from all deposits and fees, except the permit fee for nonemergency openings of new streets specified by § 313-10A(1) through (5), inclusive.
