possibility of unplanned collapse of any portion of structure or
adjacent structure where employees may be exposed.

b\. Various phases of demolition and description of how employees will
be protected from unplanned contact with active utilities, exposure to
toxic materials and gases, falling objects, structural collapse, and any
other hazards routinely associated with demolition activities.

B. Verify that utilities have been disconnected and capped.

C. If unanticipated mechanical, electrical or structural elements that
conflict with intended function or design are encountered, investigate
and measure nature and extent of conflict.

Section II of Contract.

2\. Pending receipt of directive from SCR, rearrange selective
demolition schedule, and notify SDR as necessary to continue overall job
progress without delay.

## 3.02 UTILITY SERVICES

A. Maintain existing utilities indicated to remain in service and
protect against damage during demolition operations.

Extent of electrical and mechanical utilities to be removed is shown on
Contract Drawings.

B. Schedule utility outages through SDR. At least two weeks notice is
required for most outages.

## 3.03 PREPARATION

A. Conduct demolition operations and remove debris in manner to ensure
minimum interference with roads, streets, walks, and other adjacent
