Maintenance of County-Owned Streetlights

The work to be performed under this contract consists of furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment necessary to maintain all County-owned streetlights in PEPCO, Potomac Edison, and BG&E service areas, including all new lights to be installed during the life of this contract. All lights are underground-fed and primarily free-standing, but the inventory also includes lights mounted on signals, bridges (over/under), tunnels, and bollards. The underground cables transmitting power to the lights are owned and maintained by the utility companies. The Contractor shall be responsible for the maintenance of the above-ground infrastructure including all wires from the hand box (or the hand-hole at the base of the pole in case of direct-buried) to the luminaire. The only exceptions would be at sites described in Attachment G where the contractor shall also be responsible for the maintenance of the underground cables transmitting power to the lights. Contractor compensation for underground wire repairs shall be based on time and materials, to be approved and authorized by the Engineer in advance
