Course Overview:

This one-and-a-half-day course is part of the Staking Technician Program. Today, property owners are more reluctant to give right-of-way easements for overhead or underground power lines. Consequently, more use is being made of existing public rights-of-way. To do this, permits must be obtained from the governing agency. This module of the staking program covers:

• The information required on a permit.
• Methods to set up an efficient permitting process.
• How good personal contacts can ease the process.
• Preparation of permit documents and drawings.
