Purpose and Application This document sets forth technical engineering and design standards to be applied during consideration of proposed installations of roadways, trails and utility facilities within the rightof-way (ROW) of the Alaska Railroad Corporation (ARRC). The technical standards set forth herein relate to the accommodation, location and method of installation, modifications, removal, relocation and maintenance of roadways, trails, and utility facilities not owned by ARRC, but which are located within the ROW. These technical standards were developed in the interest of safety, protection, utilization, and future development of ARRC and the ROW with due consideration given to public and private service afforded by adequate and economical utility installations. These technical standards were developed by and shall be applied by the Chief Engineer of ARRC and other ARRC Engineering staff, and shall serve as the Engineering Standard of Practice for ARRC with respect to roadways, trails and utility facilities constructed, maintained and operated in the ROW by non-ARRC parties. These technical standards shall be applied to all locations within ARRC lands or ROW located within two hundred (200) feet of ARRC Track. These technical standards specifically apply to the following types of facilities on ARRC lands: A. New roadway, trail and utility facilities; B. Additions, modifications, upgrades, or relocation of existing roadway, trail and utility facilities defined as any betterment to a facility resulting in a change to the facility foot print, or a change in the measurement of any clearance or separation from ARRC Track; C. Planned utility facilities not yet approved for construction by ARRC prior to the date of the adoption of this technical guidance; D. Any other type of facility not specifically described herein, but which is physically located within two hundred (200) feet of any railroad track maintained by ARRC. Nothing contained in these technical standards creates for any party any interest in or title to the ARRC property upon which any facility subject to these standards is constructed, nor does the application of these standards affect in any way ARRC's rights in said property, including but not limited to the rights of ARRC, its successors, assigns, permittees and licensees to use said property for any purpose whatsoever.
