I, as a Gippsland Water Approved Pipelayer, undertake to carry out these works in accordance with the requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004, Gippsland Water’s Confined Space Entry Manual, the National Sewerage Code of Australia WSA 02-1999 and the Gippsland Water Addendum.

I undertake to book an inspection with Gippsland Water to audit these works prior to backfilling, giving a minimum of 10 clear working days-notice. I will provide an “as constructed” field card within 5 working days of completion of works.

Confined Space Entry (CSE) applies to all live sewer cut-ins.
