Okla. Stat. tit. 63, § 63-986: Temporary clearance of lines - Costs

When any person, firm or corporation desires to temporarily

carry on any function, activity, work or operation in closer

proximity to any high-voltage line or conductor than permitted by

this act, the person or persons responsible for the work to be done

shall promptly notify the operator of the high-voltage conductors of

the work to be performed and make appropriate arrangements with the

operator of the high-voltage conductors for temporary mechanical

barriers, temporary deenergization and grounding of the conductors,

or temporarily raising of the conductors before proceeding with any

work which would impair the clearances required by this act.

The actual costs incurred by any operator of high-voltage

conductors in providing clearances as above set out shall be paid by

the persons, firms or corporations requesting the operator of the

high-voltage conductors to provide said temporary clearances. Unless

and until arrangements satisfactory to the operator of the high-

voltage conductors for such payment have been made, such operator

shall be under no duty to provide clearances as set out herein.
