				similar or equal to that existing before the commencement of the described
				work, including any seeding or sodding neccessary.
Second: The proposed work shall be located and constructed to
				the satisfaction of the Regional or District Engineer or his duly authorized
				representative. No revisions or additions shall be made to the proposed work on
				the right-of-way without the written permission of the Regional or District
				Engineer.
Third: The applicant shall at all times conduct the work in
				such a manner as to minimize hazards to vehicular and pedestrian traffic. In

				work may be done on any day except Sunday, New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July
				4th, Labor Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day, and
				Christmas Day. Work shall be done only during daylight hours.
Fourth: The work performed by the applicant is for the bona
				fide purpose expressed and not for the purpose of or result in parking or

				right-of-way as may at any time be considered necessary to permit the
				relocation, reconstruction, widening, or maintaining of the highway and/or to
				provide proper protection to life and property on or adjacent to the State
				right-of-way. However, in the event this permit is granted to construct,
				locate, operate, and maintain utility facilities on the State right-of-way, the
				applicant, upon written request by the Regional or District Engineer, shall
				perform such alterations or change of location of the facilities, without
				expense to the State, and should the applicant fail to make satisfactory
				arrangements to comply with this request within a reasonable time, the State
				reserves the right to make such alterations or change of location or remove the
				work, and the applicant agrees to pay for the cost incurred.
