FPI.calls your attention to the fact that there may be energized,high voltage electric lines,both overhead and underground, located in the area of this
project. It is imperative that you visually survey the area and that you also take the necessary steps to identify all overhead and underground facilities
prior to commencing construction to determine whether the construction of any proposed improvements will bring any person, tool, machinery.
equipment or object closer to FPI.'s power lines than the OSI IA-prescribed limits. If it will,you must either re-design your project to allow it to be built
safely given the pre-existing power line location. or make arrangements with FPI, to either deenergize and ground our facilities, or relocate them,
possibly at your expense. You must do this before allowing any construction near the power lines. It is impossible for FPL to know or predict
whether or not the contractors or subcontractors,and their employees,will operate or use cranes,digging apparatus or other mobile equipment,or handle
materials or tools,in dangerous proximity to such power lines during the course of construction,and,if so,when and where. Therefore,if it becomes
necessary for any contractor or subcontractor,or their employees,to operate or handle cranes,digging apparatus,draglines.mobile equipment,or any
other equipment,tools or materials in such a manner that they might come closer to underground or overhead power lines than is permitted by local,state
or federal regulations,you and any such contractor or subcontractor must notify FPI.in writing of such planned operation prior to the commencement
thereof and make all necessary arrangements with FPL in order to carry out the work in a safe manner. Any work in the vicinity of the electric lines
should be suspended until these arrangements are finalized and Implemented.

clearances cannot be maintained,you may he required to compensate FPL for the relocation of our facilities to comply with those clearances. As such,
