EXCAVATION & TRENCH PROTECTION **
For the purposes of definition all trenches will be considered as

engineered excavation protection plan will be on file at the job site
and followed for all excavations. Exceptions will be where the
excavation can follow the OSHA guidelines under regulation 29 CFR
1926.650 through 653 or tabulated data from tables or charts approved by
a professional engineer.
