76.120 Facilities of public service corporations, expense of reconstructing or
replacing -- Entering upon or damaging public way or place.
Where railroad tracks, street railroad tracks, gas or water pipes, telephone wires,
telegraph wires, electric light or power lines, or conduits, for carrying telephone or
telegraph or electric wires, or poles, or other structures of any public service
corporation, extend in, along or across any part of the work authorized by KRS
76.010 to 76.210, it shall be and become the duty of the person or corporation
owning or using such tracks, pipes, wires, conduits, poles, or other structures, to
make such changes in the same at the expense of the district as may be required
during the construction of any improvement provided for in KRS 76.010 to 76.210,
and to construct or rebuild at the expense of the district its tracks, pipes, wires,
conduits, poles, or other structures, over or along the work by KRS 76.010 to 76.210
authorized and constructed, and at its own expense to maintain the same after such
work has been completed; provided, however, such changes of that part of such
tracks, pipes, wires, conduits, poles or other structures as may be or extend in a
public way, shall be made at the expense of the public service corporation owning or
using the same only if necessary to afford the district reasonable use of such public
way. Reasonable notice in writing of such necessary changes shall be given by the
district to the parties concerned. The district may, after obtaining the written approval
of the agency owning the right-of-way thereof, enter upon streets, highways, bridges,
or public places, for the purpose of constructing any additions, betterments, or
extensions of the facilities of the district. Whenever the district has entered upon and
damaged any street, highway, bridge, or other public place, same shall be restored
to its former condition at the expense of the district.
