Abstract
This article discusses procedures for establishing a continuing liaison between both private and public utilities and the commission in connection with road projects to be built either with state funds or in connection with federal aid projects. The utility relocation liaison procedure consists of seven major phases: planning meeting; preliminary inspection; design plans conference; final design plan; advertising and contract; construction, and billing. An example is presented of the relocation of utility facilities by the Maryland State Roads Commission. The article is followed with a discussion by Robert J. McLeod on the experience the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) had with relocating its facilities due to highway construction, and determining responsibility for payment. McLeod comments on the utility facility relocation liaison procedure and notes that it does not differ significantly from what was then in place between the commission and WSSC.
