All underground substructures and conduits, in which the Department of Water and Power (Department) installs and maintains cables, and any other associated distribution system components shall be constructed in accordance with:  \na. For installation on private property: The Department's Electric Service Requirements (ESR) and the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) requirements, latest editions, where applicable.  \nb. For installation on public property: Chapter VI, Article 2, Section 62.00-62.05 of the Los Angeles Municipal Code and the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (SSPWC), latest edition adopted by the Brown Book .  \nAll construction shall also comply with the Department's Construction Standards, the Department's Standard Drawing H- 168, latest revision, where applicable, and all the requirements specified herein.  \n1(c). All underground substructures and conduits placed in known methane gas areas (as identified by the Department of Building and Safety or the Developer), shall also satisfy the requirements of the Department’s Standard Drawing(s) H-242 and 1-802.2, latest revisions.  \n2(a) . On-site inspection: The Department shall be notified at least two (2) full business days prior to the start of construction. On-site inspections performed by the Department Representative will be made between the hours of 10:00 am and 2:00 pm Monday through Friday.  \n2(b) .
