The following list is not intendedto be inclusive of all construction plan review comments. Additional comments will be generated duringthe construction plan review that is specific to the project.Section 1: Notes and Labels (Items 1· 7)1 The project Roadway At Grade and/or Grade Separated Crossings should be identified on all applicable plans asfollows:Roadway NameRoadway Design Station X+XX.XX (0+00' RT) =Florida East Coast Railway (FEC)FEC Val-Map Sta. XXXX+XX.XCrossing Name Reference per FECAAR\DOT# XXXXXXXRR MP: X+XXXX'Roadway Station X+XX.XX is to be verified by the Roadway Authority. The Roadway Design Station is the point ofintersection of the centerline of Roadway Name with the centerline of the Mainline Northbound track (to be obtainedfrom the FEC Time Table).If there are multiple Crossings shown on the plans then identify all crossings (At Grade and Grade Separated).Include this note on all sheets and profiles where the Grade Crossings are shown including plan sheets, profiles,drainage plans, utility plans, landscape plans, signalization plans, signing, and pavement marking plans, etc.2 Prior to entering into, or working on the Railway's right-of-way, you will need to contact Florida Sunshine at 1-800-432-4770 for utility locates, as you will be working around live fiber-optic cables at this location. The Railway'ssignal cables are not listed with Sunshine and require a separate locate. Call 1-800-342-1131 ext 2377 and selectoption 1 to schedule a signal cable locate. Call the same number, 1-800-342-1131 ext 2377 and select option 2 fora Watchman. The Watchman will have to be scheduled 72 hours in advance of the start date for the work. Tomaintain a safe working environment, a Watchman will have to be present anytime you or your contractors areworking within the Railway's right-of-way. The roadway contractor will need to provide proof of insurance in theamounts required by the FEC at the time of construction.All Persons working within the Railway's right-of-way must have valid Roadway Worker Protection certifications inplace and must adhere to all the rules and reg ulations regarding that certification. This includes the use ofPersonal Protection Equipment (PPE). PPE includes the following items:• Hard Hat with reflective band.• Safety Glasses with side protection.• Fluorescent green safety vest.• Steel toed boots with minimum 6" cuff and non slip tread.• Hearing protection as needed.Please place the above notes on the plans.I of7


Exhibit 2Page 48 of 55Due to the unknown schedule of the Roadway Authority’s Contractor, it is not possible to estimate the time aWatchman will be required. Watchman services are charged on a “Per Day” rate, and invoiced directly to theRoadway Authority. As information, the cost for a Watchman is approximately $1000.00 dollars a day. TheRoadway Authority must estimate the number of days a Watchman will be required and budget for this cost.3 The Railway reserves the right to comment/approve the Roadway Authority construction plans affecting theRailway property or facilities any time prior to the start of construction regardless if previous construction planapproval has been granted.This reservation will be invoked only if the Railway has either by internal policy or mandate of law revised itsstandards as applicable to this project. The Railway shall notify the Roadway Authority of changes as far aspossible in advance of construction.The Roadway Authority shall, prior to the start of construction, verify with the Railway if any revisions to standardsare applicable to this project.Please place this note on the plans.4 The following items will apply to all work performed within Railway Property:All movements of equipment within Railway Property MUST be coordinated with the Railway Watchman.During Train Movements through the project location, Vehicles, Equipment, and Personnel WILL NOT beallowed to operate.Any damage caused by the Roadway Work to the Track or Railway Property will require repair immediatelyupon notification from the Railway or their designated personnel or Contractor. If the damage affects the track,track structure, Railway facilities, or train operations as determined by the Railway, the repairs will beperformed by the Railway at the Roadway Authorities expense including all associated costs of delays of theRailway.2 of 7Please place this note on the plans.5 The following Railway contact information should be included on the plans:Joseph (Leslie) Schonder –Public Projects EngineerFlorida East Coast Railway7150 Philips HighwayJacksonville, Florida 32256Office: 904-279-3196Mobile: 904-669-1144E-mail: leslie.schonder@fecrwy.com6 If any Overhead or Underground Utility Crossings are involved as part of this roadway project, those utilities mayrequire individual Utility Lease Agreements be filed with the Railway.
