Dear Mr. Anderson; The City intends to install a twenty-seven (27) inch Sanitary Sewer Force Main to be directionally drilled within the sub -surface of the Easement unless an unexpected event takes place during the directional drilling that requires a need to excavate. At that time, the property owner will be notified of the event and steps needed to be taken to correct it, including restoration of the easement area. Your conveyance of the easement to the City permits it, or its designees, to enter the easement to install, construct, maintain, inspect, repair, replace or remove the improvements located within the Easement. You acknowledge through this agreement that the City cannot be certain as to what problems it may encounter in installing the line, and that these construction plans may change, based on conditions existing on or beneath the ground.
