Crossing Agreements

 

If you are planning construction activities within 5 metres of the CRSWSC pipeline, you must contact the CRSWSC to determine any applicable restrictions and obtain a Crossing Agreement. Applications are typically processed within three weeks of receiving all required information.

  • Legal name of the company entering into the agreement
  • Company mailing address, including a contact name or position
  • Field representative’s name, phone number, and email address

  • Site plan showing the proposed work and the CRSWSC water line, including crossing locations, areas of proximity, and horizontal clearances
  • Cross-section or profile drawing showing the vertical clearance between the CRSWSC water line and the proposed infrastructure or ground surface. Drawings must clearly identify the water line, proposed infrastructure, clearance dimensions, and installation method for underground works.

Heavy Equipment Requirements

If heavy equipment will travel directly over the water line, additional information may be required, including:

  • Equipment make and model
  • Gross vehicle weight
  • For tracked equipment: track length, track separation, and contact width
  • For wheeled equipment: number of axles, tires per axle, axle separation, axle loads, tire contact width, and tire pressure

Additional information may be requested to address site-specific conditions. For more information, refer to Appendix B – Procedure for Crossing Commission Pipeline in the CRSWSC Water Supply Policy.
