The corporation shall have the power to provide for the installation, construction, maintenance, repair, renewal, relocation and removal of tracks, pipes, mains, conduits, cables, wires, towers, poles and other equipment and appliances herein called "public utility facilities" of any public utility, as defined in R.S. 48:2-13, in, on, along, over or under any project.
Whenever the corporation shall determine that it is necessary that any public utility facilities which now are, or hereafter may be located in, on, along, over or under any project, should be relocated, or should be removed from that project, the public utility owning or operating those facilities shall relocate or remove them in accordance with the order of the corporation; provided, however, that the cost and expenses of that relocation or removal, including the cost of installing such facilities in a new location or new locations, and the cost of any lands, or any rights or interests in lands, and any other rights acquired to accomplish such relocation or removal, less the cost of any lands or any rights of the public utility paid to the public utility in connection with the relocation or removal of that property, shall be ascertained and paid by the corporation as part of the cost of that project. In case of any relocation or removal of facilities, the public utility owning or operating the same, its successors or assigns, may maintain and operate those facilities, with the necessary appurtenances, in the new location or new locations, for as long a period, and upon the same terms and conditions, as it had the right to maintain and operate those facilities in their former location or locations.
