Scoping Details

• How many houses down this ROW

• Drop off located?

  Yes

  No

• Take photo(s) of drop off clearly showing number of tubes & location relative to ROW landmarks.

  Media

• Takes photos as required for possible drop off options, provide frontage & reinstatement measurements to consider new drop off lateral.

  Media

• Step by step description of build. Format Px-Py, activity, distance, infrastructure; e.g. P1-2, T in grass 5m, 3xR Key: MT - microtrench; T - trench; H -haul; LL - lift & lay; R - ruggedized; D - duct; C - concrete

• Add aerial & photos for design. Blue - existing; Red - build; Purple - future or for provisioning.

  Media

• Will the ROW be serviced via ABF, fixed fibre or aerially?

  Air Blown Fibre

  Fixed Fibre

  Aerially

• Take photo of servicing FAT or cabinet.

  Media

• Where is the FAT/cabinet located? Distance from FAT or cabinet.

• Take photo of servicing OFDC or junction box.

• Additional Comments

• Take photo(s) clearly showing the property has existing aerial connection

  Media

• Check all aerial infrastructure is available. Is there any aerial network required? Are there any underground connections in this ROW to consider? Is it being fed from across the road? Do we need a RAT or RAT tail?

• Check movement of existing copper cables. Are the pits clear of debris? Will there be any replacement, blockages or SH&E requirements etc. to consider?

• Explain why? Have you considered the lowest impacting route? Are the transitions between surfaces possible, can the bending radius be maintained etc.

• Explain why? Are there any surface mount options available? Why were they not used? Are the transitions between surfaces possible, can the bending radius be maintained etc.

• Explain why? Are there any surface mount or soft surface options available? Why were they not used? Have you considered the lowest impacting route? Are the transitions between surfaces and changes in direction possible, can the bending radius be maintained etc?

• Explain why you are not able to utilise any other option? Ensure any pilot, entry/exit holes are considered, planned and identified clearly. Have all other utility lay lines been identified for the proposed route?

• Explain why you are not able to utilise any other option. Ensure the entire route has been identified clearly. Have all other utility lay lines been identified for the proposed route?

• Explain why you are not able to utilise any other option. Ensure the entire route has been identified clearly. Have all other utility lay lines been identified for the proposed route?

• Take photo(s) clearly showing any surface or route expected to mount infrastructure on or build including transition points, e.g. Retaining walls, fences, existing pits, BDDs duct entry & exits etc. Or any other picture as required to support photos already in scoping section.
