The Permittee also agrees by the acceptance of this permit to properly maintain any encroachment structure placed by the Permittee on any part of the County Highway and to immediately repair any injury to any portion of the highway, which occurs as a result of the maintenance of the said encroachment structure, until such time as the Permittee may be relived of the responsibility of such maintenance of the encroachment structure by the County Department of Public Works. 5. The Permittee also agrees by the acceptance of this permit to make, at its own expense, such repairs as may be deemed necessary by the County Director of Public Works or his representative. 6. It is further agreed by the Permittee that whenever construction, reconstruction or maintenance work upon the highway may require, the installation provided for herein shall, upon request of the County Department of Public Works, be immedi- ately moved by and at the sole expense of the Permittee. 7.

Barricades shall be placed, with approved signs and lights at night, and flagmen shall be employed, all as may be required by the particular work in progress. 9.
