Re: PDT-17-1 Capital Drive
Dear Nick,
EWEB staff has reviewed the Land Use Referral: PDT-17-1 Capital Drive Map: 18-03-04-31, TL
00100, 00200, 00201, 00300, 00400, and have no objections to the proposed land-use action
assuming the following comments and conditions are required to be addressed by the applicant
prior to obtaining electric, water, and/or Fiber services from EWEB.
General Comments:
Utility services for development are provided in accordance with EWEB policies and procedures
which are available at our main office or online at http://www.eweb.org/policies.
Electric Comments:
Overhead electric distribution facilities along the west side of the propose development could
pose a conflict during construction. An electric service extension is required to serve the
proposed development. Extension of electric facilities will be designed to meet the City of
Eugene Utility Permitting ordinances, land use ordinances, EWEB standards, and other
applicable codes. The cost of facility extensions and relocations will be borne by the requesting
customer and executed under EWEB policies and procedures at the time request for electric
service is made.
Electric facilities extending across tax lots to serve adjacent properties require easement. The
applicant's representative should coordinate early in design with EWEB Electric Distribution
Engineering to confirm the specific locations and sizes of EWEB easements or required
relocation by calling 541-685-7521 or email at DistributionEngineering@eweb.org. EWEB Utility
Easements or PUE's required to serve these properties must be noted on the plat prior to
EWEB's approval of the Final Subdivision.
Electric facilities under storm water treatment facilities or any open drainage structure should be
avoided. EWEB standards and extension design will require additional measures if water
treatment facilities are unavoidable. Additional information pertaining to new electric service is
available at EWEB's website at http://www.eweb.org/contractors-and-developers/building-and-
renovations/facility-extension. EWEB owns and maintains service conduit and conductors.

Water Comments:
EWEB's existing water infrastructure in the area is insufficient to serve the proposed
development. Contact EWEB's water engineering department so options for a distribution
system design can be looked at.
The Applicant is advised to contact the Fire Marshall's office about fire protection requirements
for building permits.
EWEB water does not allow installation of any water facilities under proposed "rain gardens" or
any open drainage structure within the right-of-way. Provisions within the design must be made
to accommodate the installation of water facilities (services & hydrants) at common lot corners.
A minimum 5' wide "utility corridor" at service crossing and hydrant locations is required.
State Drinking Water regulations (OAR 333-061-0050(10)) require a minimum separation
between water and sewer lines of 10' where they run parallel to each other, or 5' if the sewer
line is located at least 1.5' below the water main.
EWEB owned water facilities will be located in the right-of-way or a minimum 7' public utility
easement (PUE) adjacent to the right-of-way, or in a 14' PUE when not located adjacent to the
right-of-way.

Right-of-Way Comments:
Those EWEB utility easements Instrument Nos. 18885 & 18881, recorded on December 12,
1953, on Reel 29' 53D, Lane County Deeds & Records, (EWEB doc. #1574) may affect the
development's northerly boundary and should be referenced on the plat.
There are existing electric facilities crossing Tax Lot 400 to serve Tax Lots 200 and 300. Either
Public Utility Easement(s) dedicated on the plat or EWEB Utility Easement(s) recorded
simultaneously with and referenced on the plat will be necessary to cover any existing or new
electric service(s) that cross any parcel(s) to serve another parcel(s). Contact EWEB Electric
Distribution who will design electric extension to serve the development and determine the width
and length necessary for any necessary utilitiy easements.
If a Public Utility Easement (PUE) is dedicated on the plat, the plat should include the
customary Note for PUEs: "No building, structure, trees, shrubbery or other obstruction shall be
placed or located on or in a public utility easement." Or, at the customer's request, EWEB can

to satisfy EWEB's needs.

As always, EWEB recommends property owners and contractors call for locates before digging
for installation of any underground supports to verify that no utility facilities will be affected by
this construction.
