• Additional Comments

• How many houses are aerially fed?

• 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?

• 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?

• Terminal installation required? (e.g IFDB. OFDCs, RATs etc)

  Yes

  No

• Type of terminal? (e.g IFDB. OFDCs, RATs etc)

• Aerial copper/fibre route available for EUPs in ROW/MDU?

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• How many poles are in the ROW

• Conduct pole tests for all poles involved in the scope inside and outside boundary. 1. Visual Test (Compulsory for ALL types of Poles) 2. Hammer Test (Compulsory for Wooden Poles) 3. Probe Test- 300mm below and above ground level (Compulsory for Wooden Poles) NOTE: Capture pole number, type of pole (e.g: wooden/spun), and if it pass the pole test (yes/No) for each test conducted. Example: VP1003, wooden, yes:Yes:Yes

• Add media

  Media

• Existing ducts available inside ROW/MDU? <br>Check ducts at drop off location, hand holes/BDD pits, ETPs<br>

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• How many EUPs have existing ducts?

• Conduct duct proving for all ducts in communal area, • Prove existing ducts and install draw tapes (where possible) for inside boundary ducts. • Locate blockages, • If blocked in soft surface, dig and investigate blockage • If blocked under hard surface, mark with crayon/paint • If access is not available for non-requesting properties, do not access the ETPs NOTE: Capture house addresses having ducts, and if it’s clear to use(yes/No). If duct is not usable provide reason and identify the location of duct blockage. Example: Communal duct, 50mm,Yes House 7, 20mm, No (the duct is blocked under grass and blockage can be removed, picture attached)

• Add media

  Media

• Fence available and suitable to build the new fibre infrastructure (e.g ruggedized duct, 20mm/32mm HDPE ducts)?

Scoping Details

• NETMAP/other plans available in job pack identifying the drop off location?

  Yes

  No

• Drop off located as per NETMAP?

  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

• Is there any overlay of Network inside boundary?<br>Check all plans provided in the job to avoid any overlay of network inside/outside boundary. <br>If there is an overlay, please provide Why it is required/
