Description
Public utility lines crossing railroads. Establishes a procedure for the State Corporation Commission to determine matters pertaining to the construction and operation of municipal water, sewer, and telecommunications lines, wires, pipes, and conduits that cross railroads. The application shall include standard railroad liability protection insurance. If the Commission grants an application requiring the railroad to grant to the municipality a license for such crossing, it may require the payment to the railroad company of damages and a fee, which fee shall not exceed the actual costs reasonably expected to be incurred by the railroad company as a result of the crossing and the periodic inspection of such works, but shall take into consideration the system-wide administrative and other costs of implementing crossing agreements.
