No: 6431-5597/8-5500 Our Reference No: DCP800209908 Dear Mr. Fogassy: In order for the Southern California Edison Company to continue to provide your area with quality electrical service, some electrical changes are required to a portion of an electrical circuit that passes through the above-referenced location. These changes require the installation of some new electrical equipment. To implement these changes, it is necessary for Edison to acquire rights of way from you. c Specifically, Edison will need an easement to permit the installation and maintenance of electrical facilities on your property. Edison plans to install voltage regulation equipment at this site, in addition to a PME structure (48" x 72" pad with 30" x 48" pull box). Landscaping affected by the installation will be returned to its original condition at the completion of the work. The enclosed map shows the location of the proposed easement. Enclosed please find an original and one copy of a Grant of Easement. Please have the original Grant of Easement signed, have the signatures notarized and return in the envelope provided. Please ensure that the notary stamp is clear and legible to aid in recording by the County Recorder's Office. If you prefer tbe Edison Company to arrange for a notary service to come to you, please contact me at (714) 568-1800 en. 224. Please keep the map and the copy of the easement for your records. The Southern California Edison Company sincerely appreciates your cooperation on this issue. All planned work for this easement will be done at no cost to you, our customer. Future maintenance of equipment installed will be at the expense of Edison and will be solely Edison's responsibility. Should you have any questions regarding the Grant of Easement, please feel free to call me at (714) 568-1800 eXl. 224. Again, thank you very much for your time and consideration.
