tablishment, shall, upon reasonable notice from said Commission, promptly
so shift, adjust, accommodate or remove the same, at their own cost and
expense as to fully meet the exigencies occasioning such notice; and should
the exigencies of any case involve the taking, in the constitutional sense,

its origin, the Commission shall be empowered to condemn an easement
in said franchise or right. Every public service corporation, company or
individual, before it or they shall begin any underground construction in

Commission before such construction is begun; and when approved no
change shall be made in the physical location of anything shown upon
said plan except upon the approval of said Commission. Whenever any
such underground main, conduit or pipe is put in without the filing of
plans with the said Commission and the approval thereof, or when any
change is made in the physical location of such underground main, con-
duit or pipe, as shown upon the plans approved by said Commission, or
any approved change therein, the Commission may, when such conduit,
main or pipe interferes with the construction or operation of its water
and sewer systems, remove the same or change the location thereof at the
cost and expense of the party so putting them in, or its successors, and
without any liability upon the part of the Commission for damage that
might be done to the same by reason of the Commission's operations in
constructing or maintaining its systems. Any violation of the provisions
of this Section shall be a misdemeanor punishable under Section 1035
