You are the Owner's project manager on an electrical upgrade project. Existing overhead power lines are being buried in a duct bank to hide them from view in an area of the town that is being revitalized. There are a total of 8.6 miles of power lines being buried. All the power lines being buried are on one street and run in a straight line. Due to the size of the wires, a pull box needs to be installed every 500 feet.
