or otherwise deteriorate. If the responsible person does not complete
the excavation and restore the surface in accordance with requirements
of this section or if the responsible person does not restore the
surface and make any necessary repairs resulting from the settling
or any other deterioration within a reasonable time after receipt
of notice of settling from the Township then the Township may perform
the necessary work itself and deduct the cost of such work from the
posted bond. At the end of 12 months the Director of Public Works
shall inspect the area of the excavation to determine whether it has
been restored in compliance with the requirements of this section.
The Director of Public Works shall then submit a written report to
the Township Committee recommending that the bond be returned in whole

a. It shall be unlawful to make any such excavation, opening or tunnel
in any way contrary to or at variance with the terms of the permit
therefor. Proper bracing shall be maintained to prevent the collapse
of adjoining ground, and, in excavations, the excavation shall not
have anywhere below the surface any portion which extends beyond the
opening at the surface.
b. No injury shall be done to any pipes, cables or conduits in the making
of such openings, excavations or tunnels, and notice shall be given
to the persons maintaining any such pipes, cables or conduits (or
to the Township Road Department or officer charged with the care thereof)
which are or may be endangered or affected by the making of any such
opening, excavation or tunnel before such pipes, cables or conduits
shall be disturbed.
c. No unnecessary damage or injury shall be done to any tree or shrub
or the roots thereof.
d. All openings, excavations or tunnels shall be guarded with adequate
safety measures as may be necessary and with adequate warning devices.
The safety measures and warning devices shall be placed in such a
manner as to not unduly restrict traffic. Where the Police Department
determines that such safety measures and warning devices are not adequate
for the free movement of traffic during road construction and/or excavation,
a police officer may be assigned to direct traffic in the area involved
during working hours, and the cost thereof shall be charged by the
Township to the contractor or other person obtaining the permit. The
provisions of this subsection shall not affect or relieve the contractor
or any other person from any other obligations imposed by the contract
or by operation of law.
