The Department may approve reimbursement to the utility for the total cost of the removal of a utility's facility if the removal is required by the project or the existing facility cannot be abandoned in place for aesthetic or safety reasons. If the utility abandons the facility in place and removes and recovers the materials, the Department will not reimburse the utility for the costs of removal which are greater than the salvage value of the materials.
