provisions of this license and Article VII, nor may it be construed to be for the benefit of
any third party other than City and Licensee.
SECTION 15. General Conditions of Construction.
a. Licensee is advised that the top of the 12-inch pipeline to be constructed must

bottom of all existing City water lines, and a minimum centerline to centerline
horizontal distance of 10-feet from all other existing City utilities.
b. The pipeline to be constructed must meet the required conditions below, as per
approval of the City Water Department:
Line pipe spec'd at .312WT Grade X-52 rated to 2160psi
Standard bore for project is .375WT Grade X-52 rated to 2600psi
In the alternative, can use .500Wt Grade X-52 rated to 3000psi
c. The pipeline to be constructed must have Cathodic Protection when crossing any
existing City water lines. If improvements are needed to any of the existing City
water lines, due to the possible stray current of the 12-inch pipeline making our
City water lines the sacrificial anode, or if Cathodic Protection is needed on the
City water lines, Licensee must provide that service to the existing City water
lines.
In witness whereof, this license agreement has been duly authorized, executed, and
delivered by the parties as of the respective dates appearing below.

The roadways I've placed arrows at are not TXDOT's for UIR. Contact the City of Corpus Christi for utility permits on those roadways. If
that roadway intersects one of TXDOT's roadways that we do maintain then a UIR will need to be created for the portion that is inside
our roadway and the location star will need to be placed on our roadway. See 2nd page for west side of Corpus. The only portion of
Agnes St AKA SS 544 that is State-maintained is the portion from its intersection with SH 358 west until it merges with SH 44 and also
the portions where SS 544 intersects other State roadways.
