—F > 27 May, 2020 EFL The Director, WesEng Consulting Pte Limited 2 Tui Street, Level 2, P.O Box 450, Lautoka, Fiji. Dear Sir, Challenge Engineering Ltd Proposed Natabua Residential Subdivision (LOT4 & 5 ND 5043, CL11324 & CL6874) Request for Consent for Power Supply Greetings from Energy Fiji Limited (“EFL”) I refer to your letter submission dated 27" April 2020, requesting for provision of consent from EFL to supply power to the proposed development at the above mentioned site. The comments on the development are outlined below for your reference and necessary processing: 1. Power Supply Requirements Upon receipt of formal request from the developer, with the detailed engineering drawings and electrical power demand for the proposed development, EFL will carry out an engineering survey to establish the necessary power supply infrastructure to provide the required power supply to the proposed development. The developer will be required to meet the cost of identified electric power supply infrastructure development, which may include high-voltage grid extension and could involve the establishment of substation(s). The requirement for substation for large installation is stipulated in Section 49 of the Etectricity Regulations (2019). 2. Minimum Safe Clearance Distance from Electricity Supply Infrastructure EFL takes all measures to ensure that its electrical power supply infrastructure fs designed and installed in a safe manner, so that its operation does not present hazards to the public at large. ‘Over the years, however, construction and development work near EFL’s electrical power supply infrastructure has resulted in breach of minimum safe clearance distances. These minimum safe clearance distances are stipulated in Section 27 of the Electricity Regulations (2019). ‘The developer, at all times, must ensure that all construction work near EFL’s electrical power ‘supply infrastructure complies with the minimum safe clearance distance. EFL has existing assets in the vicinity of the proposed development. If these require relocation due to the development, the associated relocation costs shall be borne by the developer as stipulated in Section 33 of the Electricity Regulations(2019),and such relocation must be effected prior to any development or construction works. The developer will be further required to provide written wayleave easement for such relocations. For any mechanized digging near the road reserve, the developer shall contact EFL. prior to digging for confirmation of any buried cables. No earthworks shall be carried out within 2 meters of any power pole that could affect pole base stability.

It is important to note that it shall be the developer’s responsibility to adhere to the following terms and conditions at no cost to EFL: 1) Provide EFL adequate ground space for the installation of required electrical infrastructures, inclusive of the proposed pole positions along access road reserves; 2) Provide EFL a 24/7 heavy vehicular and personal unobstructed entry/exit to the electricity supply infrastructure for safe installation, operation and maintenance of the equipment 3) Ensure that all access roads in the subdivision are properly formalized and must coordinate with EFL, after payment of required capital contributions, for construction of electricity supply infrastructure prior to permanent sealing of footpaths or roads; 4) Ensure that the proposed high-voltage overhead power line route and proposed pole-mount transformer sites are brought to the final ground level before EFL carries out its installation works with the developer to provide proper as-built plans; and 5) Provide EFL the electrical installation details and detailed load schedule of the development to verify the required maximum electrical demand. Please be advised that while EFL will do its utmost best to install its infrastructure opposite buried water and sewerage mains along the access road reserves, the developer must ensure that the positioning of the electrical power supply infrastructure during the final design and installation phases of the development will not disturb existing and/or proposed utility services in the vicinity of the development. However, any additional or alteration work required during the installation of the electrical power supply infrastructure as a result of limitations/restrictions to the general layout of the development, the developer must provide alternative route/site to EFL at the expense of the developer. It is essential, therefore that the developer ensures that the road reserves have adequate provisions for reticulation by all utility services. In principle, EFL has no objection to the proposed development, however, we request you to be mindful of the matters raised above when reviewing the developer's plans. As there is existing EFL asset in the vicinity of the proposed development, developer will be required to coordinate with EFL for any work near existing power poles and bear associated cost for relocation or pote base strengthening if deemed necessary and provide wayleave easements for the new pole positions and overhead lines.
