The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or nonresident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B.

All fences encountered and removed during construction of this project shall be restored to the original or a better than original condition upon completion of this project. When wire fencing, either wire mesh or barbed wire is to be crossed, the Contractor shall set cross brace posts on either side of the permanent easement before the fence is cut. Should additional fence cuts be necessary, the Contractor shall provide cross -braced posts at the point of the proposed cut in addition to the cross braced posts provided at the permanent easements limits, before the fence is cut. Temporary fencing shall be erected in place of the fencing removed whenever the work is not in progress and when the site is vacated overnight, and/or at all times to prevent livestock from entering the construction area. The cost for fence removal, temporary closures and replacement shall be subsidiary to the various items bid in the project proposal. Therefore, no separate payment shall be allowed for any service associated with this work. In case of failure on the part of the Contractor to restore such property or to make good such damage or injury, the Owner may, upon 48 hour written notice under ordinary circumstances, and without notice when a nuisance or hazardous condition results, proceed to repair, rebuild, or otherwise restore such property as may be determined by the Owner to be necessary, and the cost thereby will be deducted from any monies due to or to become due to the Contractor under this contract.

C7-7(3) When the date of completion is based on a calendar day bid, a request for extension of time because of inclement weather will not be considered.

The amount of time so stated by the successful bidder or the City will become the time of completion specified in the Contract Documents. For each calendar day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the time specified in the Contract Documents, or increased time granted by the Owner, or as automatically increased by additional work or materials ordered after the contract is signed, the sum per day given in the following schedule, unless otherwise specified in other parts of the Contract Documents, will be deducted from the monies due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages suffered by the Owner.

C7-7.11 SUSPENSION BY COURT ORDER: The Contractor shall suspend operations on such part or parts of the work ordered by any court, and will not be entitled to additional compensation by virtue of such court order. Neither will he be liable to the City in the vent the work is suspended by a Court Order.

(Wage rates are attached at the end of this section.) (Attached) 02/09/2010 SC-51 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS D- 66 REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF ASBESTOS CEMENT PIPE A. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth to comply with the requirements of the Asbestos National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) found at 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M. This specification will establish procedures to be used by all Excavators in the removal and disposal of asbestos cement pipe (ACP) in compliance with NESHAP. Nothing in this specification shall be construed to void any provision of a contract or other law, ordinance, regulation or policy whose requirements are more stringent. B. ACP is defined under NESHAP as a Category II, non -friable material in its intact state but which may become friable upon removal, demolition and/or disposal. Consequently, if the removal/ disposal process renders the ACP friable, it is regulated under the disposal requirements of 40 CFR 61.150. A NESHAP notification must be filed with the Texas Department of Health. The notification must be filed at least ten days prior to removal of the material. If it remains in its non - friable state, as defined by the NESHAP, it can be disposed as a conventional construction waste. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines friable as material, when dry, which may be crumbled, pulverized or reduced to powder by hand pressures. C. The Generator of the hazardous material is responsible for the identification and proper handling, transportation, and disposal of the material. Therefore, it is the policy of the City of Fort Worth that the Excavator is the Generator regardless of whether the pipe is friable or not. D. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth that all ACP shall be removed in such careful and prudent manner that it remains intact and does not become friable. The Excavator is responsible to employ those means, methods, techniques and sequences to ensure this result. Compliance with all aspects of worker safety and health regulations including but not limited to the OSHA Asbestos Standard is the responsibility of the Excavator. The City of Fort Worth assumes no responsibility for compliance programs, which are the responsibility of the Excavator. (Copy of forms attached) F. The removal and disposal of ACP shall be subsidiary to the cost of installing the new pipe unless otherwise stated or indicated on the project plans or contract documents. D-67 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION (FOR DISTURBED AREAS GREATER THAN 1 ACRE) PERMIT: As defined by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) regulations, a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) General Construction Permit is required for all construction activities that result in the disturbance of one to five acres (Small Construction Activity) or five or more acres of total land (Large Construction Activity). The contractor is defined as an "operator" by state regulations and is required to obtain a permit. Information concerning the permit can be obtained through the Internet at http://www.tnrcc.state.tx.us/permitting/water perm/wwperm/construct.html. Soil stabilization and structural practices have been selected and designed in accordance with North Central Texas Council of Governments Best Management 02/09/2010 SC-52 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS Practices and Erosion Control Manual for Construction Activities (BMP Manual). This manual can be obtained through the Internet at www.dfwstormwater.com/runoff.html. Not all of the structural controls discussed in the BMP Manual will necessarily apply to this project. Best Management Practices are construction management techniques that, if properly utilized, can minimize the need for physical controls and possible reduce costs. The methods of control shall result in minimum sediment retention of not less than 70%. NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI): If the project will result in a total land disturbance equal to or greater than 5 acres, the contractor shall sign at the pre -construction meeting a TCEQ Notice of Intent (NOI) form prepared by the engineer. It serves as a notification to the TCEQ of construction activity as well as a commitment that the contractor understands the requirements of the permit for storm water discharges from construction activities and that measures will be taken to implement and maintain storm water pollution prevention at the site. The NOI shall be submitted to the TCEQ at least 48 hours prior to the contractor moving on site and shall include the required $100 application fee. The NOI shall be mailed to: Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Storm Water & General Permits Team; MC-228 P.O.

It serves as a notice that the site is no longer subject to the requirement of the permit. The NOT should be mailed to: Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Storm Water & General Permits Team; MC-228 P.O. Box 13087 Austin, TX 78711-3087 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN (SWPPP): A document consisting of an erosion control and toxic waste management plan and a narrative defining site parameters and techniques to be employed to reduce the release of sediment and pollution from the construction site. Copies of the project SWPPP's are available for viewing at the office of the Consultant disbursing the plans for the project. The selected Contractor shall be provided with three copies of the SWPPP after award of contract, along with unbounded copies of all forms to be submitted to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. LARGE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY — DISTURBED AREA EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN 5 ACRES: A Notice of Intent (NOI) form shall be completed and submitted to the TCEQ including payment of the TCEQ required fee. A SWPPP that meets all TCEQ requirements prepared by the Engineer shall be prepared and implemented at least 48 hours before the commencement of 02/09/2010 SC-53 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS construction activities. The SWPPP shall be incorporated into in the contract documents. The contractor shall submit a schedule for implementation of the SWPPP. Deviations from the plan must be submitted to the engineer for approval. The SWPPP is not warranted to meet all the conditions of the permit since the actual construction activities may vary from those anticipated during the preparation of the SWPPP. Modifications may be required to fully conform to the requirements of the Permit. The contractor must keep a copy of the most current SWPPP at the construction site. Any alterations to the SWPPP proposed by the contractor must be prepared and submitted by the contractor to the engineer for review and approval. A Notice of Termination (NOT) form shall be submitted within 30 days after final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee, or, when another permitted operator assumes control over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized. SMALL CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY - DISTURBED AREA EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN ONE ACRE BUT LESS THAN FIVE ACRES: Submission of a NOI form is not required. However, a TCEQ Site Notice form must be completed and posted at the site. A copy of the completed Site Notice must be sent to the City of Fort Worth Department of Environmental Management at the address listed above. A SWPPP, prepared as described above, shall be implemented at least 48 hours before the commencement of construction activities. The SWPPP must include descriptions of control measures necessary to prevent and control soil erosion, sedimentation and water pollution and will be included in the contract documents. The control measures shall be installed and maintained throughout the construction to assure effective and continuous water pollution control. The controls may include, but not be limited to, silt fences, straw bale dikes, rock berms, diversion dikes, interceptor swales, sediment traps and basins, pipe slope drain, inlet protection, stabilized construction entrances, seeding, sodding, mulching, soil retention blankets, or other structural or non-structural storm water pollution controls. The method of control shall result in a minimum sediment retention of 70% as defined by the NCTCOG "BMP Manual." Deviations from the proposed control measures must be submitted to the engineer for approval. PAYMENT FOR SWPPP IMPLEMENTATION: Payment shall be made per lump sum as shown on the proposal as full compensation for all items contained in the project SWPPP. D-68 COORDINATION WITH THE CITY'S REPRESENTATIVE FOR OPERATIONS OF EXISTING WATER SYSTEMS It is the Contractor's responsibility to coordinate any event that will require connecting to or the operation of an existing City water line system with the City's representative. The Contractor may obtain a hydrant water meter from the Water Department for use during the life of named project. In the event the Contractor requires that a water valve on an existing live system be turned off and on to accommodate the construction of the project, the Contractor must coordinate this activity through the appropriate City representative. The Contractor shall not operate water line valves of existing water system. Failure to comply will render the Contractor in violation of Texas Penal Code Title 7, Chapter 28.03 (Criminal Mischief) and the Contractor will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. In addition, the Contractor will assume all liabilities and responsibilities as a result of these actions. D-69 ADDITIONAL SUBMITTALS FOR CONTRACT AWARD The City reserves the right to require any pre -qualified contractor who is the apparent low bidder(s) for a project to submit such additional information as the City, in sole discretion may require, 02/09/2010 SC-54 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS including but not limited to manpower and equipment records, information about key personnel to be assigned to the project, and construction schedule, to assist the City in evaluating and assessing the ability of the apparent low bidder(s) to deliver a quality product and successfully complete projects for the amount bid within the stipulated time frame. Based upon the City's assessment of the submitted information, a recommendation regarding the award of a contract will be made to the City Council. Failure to submit the additional information if requested may be grounds for rejecting the apparent low bidder as non -responsive. Affected contractors will be notified in writing of a recommendation to the City Council. D-70 EARLY WARNING SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION Time is of the essence in the completion of this contract. In order to insure that the contractor is responsive when notified of unsatisfactory performance and/or of failure to maintain the contract schedule, the following process shall be applicable: The work progress on all construction projects will be closely monitored. On a bi-monthly basis the percentage of work completed will be compared to the percentage of time charged to the contract. If the amount of work performed by the contractor is less than the percentage of time allowed by 20% or more (example: 10% of the work completed in 30% of the stated contract time as may be amended by change order), the following proactive measures will be taken: 1. A letter will be mailed to the contractor by certified mail, return receipt requested demanding that, within 10 days from the date that the letter is received, it provide sufficient equipment, materials and labor to ensure completion of the work within the contract time. In the event the contractor receives such a letter, the contractor shall provide to the City an updated schedule showing how the project will be completed within the contract time. 2.

Upon receipt of the contractor's response, the appropriate City departments and directors will be notified. The Water Department's Public Information Officer will, if necessary, then forward updated notices to the interested individuals. 5. If the contractor fails to provide an acceptable schedule or fails to perform satisfactorily a second time prior to the completion of the contract, the bonding company will be notified appropriately. D-71 AIR POLLUTION WATCH DAYS The Contractor shall be required to observe the following guidelines relating to working on City construction sites on days designated as "AIR POLLUTION WATCH DAYS". Typically, the OZONE SEASON, within the Metroplex area, runs from May 1, through OCTOBER 31, with 6:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. being critical BECAUSE EMISSIONS FROM THIS TIME PERIOD HAVE 02/09/2010 SC-55 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS ENOUGH TIME TO BAKE IN THE HOT ATMOSPHERE THAT LEADS TO EARLY AFTERNOON OZONE FORMATION. . The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), in coordination with the National Weather Service, will issue the Air Pollution Watch by 3:00 p.m. on the afternoon prior to the WATCH day. On designated Air Pollution Watch Days, the Contractor shall bear the responsibility of being aware that such days have been designated Air Pollution Watch Days and as such shall not begin work until 10:00 a.m. whenever construction phasing requires the use of motorized equipment for periods in excess of 1 hour. However, the Contractor may begin work prior to 10:00 a.m. if use of motorized equipment is less than 1 hour, or if equipment is new and certified by EPA as "Low Emitting", or equipment burns Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD), diesel emulsions, or alternative fuels such as CNG. If the Contractor is unable to perform continuous work for a period of at least seven hours between the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m., on a designated Air Pollution Watch Day, that day will be considered as a weather day and added onto the allowable weather days of a given month.

The backer rod and breaker tape shall be compatible with the silicone joint sealant and no bond or reaction shall occur between them. Reference is made to the "Construction Detail" sheet for the various joint details with their respective dimensions. 3. TIME OF APPLICATION On newly constructed Portland Cement Concrete pavement, the joints shall be initially saw cut to the required depth with the proper joint spacing as shown on the "Construction Detail" sheet or as directed by the ENGINEER within 12 hours of the pavement placement. (Note that for the "dummy" joints, the initial 1/4 inch width "green" saw -cut and the "reservoir" saw cut are identical and should be part of the same saw cutting operation. Immediately after the saw cutting Rev 2-19-10 SP-29 pressure washing shall be applied to flush the concrete slurry from the freshly saw cut joints.) The pavement shall be allowed to cure for a minimum of seven (7) days. Then the saw cuts for the joint sealant reservoir shall be made, the joint cleaned, and the joint sealant installed. During the application of the joint sealant, the weather shall not be inclement and the temperature shall be 40F (4C) and rising. 4. EQUIPMENT 4.1 All necessary equipment shall be furnished by the Contractor. The Contractor shall keep his equipment in a satisfactory working condition and shall be inspected by the ENGINEER prior to the beginning of the work. The minimum requirements for construction equipment shall be as follows: 4.2 Concrete Saw: The sawing equipment shall be adequate in size and power to complete the joint sawing to the required dimensions. 4.3 High Pressure Water Pump: The high pressure cold water pumping system shall be capable of delivering a sufficient pressure and volume of water to thoroughly flush the concrete slurry from the saw -cut joint. 4.4 Air Compressors: The delivered compressed air shall have a pressure in excess of 90 psi and 120 cfm. There shall be suitable reaps for the removal of all free water and oil from the compressed air. The blow -tube shall fir into the saw -cut joint. 4.5 Extrusion Pump: The output shall be capable of supplying a sufficient volume of sealant to the joint. 4.6 Injection Tool: This mechanical device shall apply the sealant uniformly into the joint. 4.7 Sandblaster: The design shall be for commercial use with air compressors as specified in Paragraph 5.4. 4.8 Backer Rod Roller and Tooling Instrument: These devices shall be clean and free of contamination. They shall be compatible with the join depth and width requirements. 5. CONSTRUCTION METHODS 5.1 General: The joint reservoir saw cutting, cleaning, bond breaker installation, and joint sealant placement shall be performed in a continuous sequence of operations 5.2 Sawing Joints: The joints shall be saw -cut to the width and depth as shown on the "Construction Detail" sheet. The faces of the joints shall be uniform in width and depth along the full length of the joint. 5.3 Cleaning Joints: Immediately after sawing, the resulting concrete slurry shall be completely removed from the joint and adjacent area by flushing with high Rev 2-19-10 SP-30 pressure water. The water flushing shall be done in one -direction to prevent joint contamination. When the Contractor elects to saw the joint by the dry method, flushing the joint with high pressure water may be deleted. The dust resulting from the sawing shall be removed from the joint by using compressed air. (Paragraph Rev. 1, October 18, 1989) After complete drying, the joints shall be sandblasted. The nozzle shall be attached to a mechanical aiming device so that the sand blast will be directed at an angle of 45 degrees and at a distance of one to two inches from the face of the joint. Both joint faces shall be sandblasted in separate, one directional passes. Upon the termination of the sandblasting, the joints shall be blown -out using compressed air. The blow tube shall fit into the joints. The blown joint shall be checked for residual dust or other contamination. If any dust or contamination is found, the sandblasting and blowing shall be repeated until the joint is cleaned. Solvents will not be permitted to remove stains and contamination. Immediately upon cleaning, the bond breaker and sealant shall be placed in the joint. Open, cleaned joints shall not be left unsealed overnight. Bond Breaker Rod and Tape: The bond breaker rod and tape shall be installed in the cleaned joint prior to the application of the joint sealant in a manner that will produce the required dimensions. 5.4 Joint Sealant: Upon placement of the bond breaker rod and tape, the joint sealant shall be applied using the mechanical injection tool. The joint sealant application shall not be permitted when the air and pavement temperature is less than 40F (4C). Joints shall not be sealed unless they are clean and dry. Unsatisfactorily sealed joints shall be refilled. Excess sealant left on the pavement surface shall be removed and discarded and shall not be used to seal the joints. The pavement surface shall present a clean final condition. Traffic shall not be allowed on the fresh sealant until it becomes tack -free. Approval of Joints: A representative of the sealant manufacturer shall be present at the job site at the beginning of the final cleaning and sealing of the joints. He shall demonstrate to the Contractor and the ENGINEER the acceptable method for sealant installation. The manufacturer's representative shall approve the clean, dry joints before the sealing operation commences. 6. WARRANTY The Contractor shall provide the ENGINEER a manufacturer's written guarantee on all joint sealing materials. The manufacturer shall agree to provide any replacement Rev 2-19-10 SP-31 material free of charge to the City. Also, the Contractor shall provide the ENGINEER a written warranty on all sealed joints. The Contractor shall agree to replace any failed joints at no cost to the City. Both warranties shall be for two years after final acceptance of the completed work by the ENGINEER. 7. BASIS OF PAYMENT All costs associated with concrete joint sealant shall be subsidiary to the concrete item and no other compensation will be provided. 69. NON -PAY ITEM - ACCEPTANCE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT: The concrete pavement acceptance policy shall be as follows: A. Penalty for Deficient Pavement Thickness. There shall be no acceptance of deficient pavement thickness other than the tolerances specified below. 1. Pavement thickness deficiency up to 0.25-inch will be considered as satisfactory and the contract unitprice will be used for payment if the average thickness within the project meets or exceeds the specified designed thickness. 2. Deficiencies of greater than 0.25-inch shall be removed and replaced with pavement of plan thickness at contractors entire expense. B. Cracked Concrete Acceptance Policy. The criteria for acceptance or rejection of reinforced concrete that is cracked is as follows: 1. DEFINITIONS a. Minor crack — A crack of no more than 5 feet in length and does not extend i.) from the edge of a slab or from a pavement joint, or; ii.) the depth to the reinforcement steel of the concrete slab, or; iii.) an intermediate crack that is designated as a minor crack under Monitor Pavement Option 2. b. Intermediate Crack — A crack that extends from any edge of slab or joint a distance of no more than 5 feet. c. Structural or Maior crack — A crack i.) of greater than 5 feet, or; ii.) that extends from the edge of a slab or from a pavement joint to any other edge of slab or joint, or; iii.) extends the full depth of the concrete slab, or; iv.) an intermediate crack that is designated as a structural crack under Monitor Pavement Option 2. d. City Engineer — In the application of this policy, the City Engineer is the Director of the Department of Transportation and Public Works or his designee. 2. ACCEPTABLE PAVEMENT — NO ACTION IS NECESSARY: A concrete panel with four (4) or less minor cracks as defined above is acceptable. (See Figure 1). No action is necessary and no routing and sealing is allowed. Rev 2-19-10 SP-32 PLAN Figure 1 - No action is necessary PROFILE 3. MONITORED PAVEMENT A concrete pavement with one intermediate crack as defined above may be acceptable. The contractor has two options. Option No. 1 — The panel may be removed and replaced at contractor expense. Option No. 2 — The limit of the crack shall be identified for future reference by drilling a 1/2" hole at the free end of the crack and sealing the crack with an approved epoxy material. If at the end of the warranty period the crack has not propagated then the crack will be designated as a minor crack. If the crack has propagated then the crack is considered a structural crack. 4. STRUCTURALLY CRACKED PAVEMENT — FULL PANEL REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED: A. If a panel contains greater than four (4) minor cracks and those cracks are determined to be caused primarily by a deficiency of material or workmanship, the panel must be removed and replaced by the Contractor at his own expense. (See Figure 2) Rev 2-19-10 ki PLAN SP-33 PROFILE Figure 2 - Full panel replacement is required. B. All concrete panels with any structural or major crack as defined above that is determined to be caused, primarily, by a deficiency of material or workmanship must be removed and replaced in their entirety by the Contractor at his own expense. (See Figures 3 and 4 below) PLAN Figure 3 - Full panel replacement is required. }�1 PLAN Figure 4 - Full panel replacement is required. PROFILE PROFILE C. If the edge of existing concrete pavement is damaged during the construction of adjacent pavement; the damaged panel(s) must be removed and replaced in its entirety by the Contractor at his own expense. 5. APPLICATION AND FINAL DETERMINATION OF POLICY It is not the intention of this policy that the Contractor is required to remove and replace at his own expense any concrete that cracks due primarily to causes other than his own materials and/or workmanship. While cracks may be caused by a combination of factors, a primary Rev 2-19-10 SP-34 cause can be determined. It is the policy that if a deficiency of materials and/or workmanship be found to be the primary cause of a crack or cracks, then the contractor shall remove and replace the panels that contain the structural crack or cracks at no expense to the City. If cracks exist in the project, the City Engineer or his/her designee will make the determination if the crack is minor or structural. If the crack is structural, the Contractor and the City will attempt to agree on the cause or causes of the crack. If the Contractor and City agree that the cause of a structural crack requiring removal and replacement is due primarily to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship, the concrete pavement will be removed and replaced at Contractor's entire expense. If the Contractor and City cannot agree as to the cause of a structural crack, the City may hire an independent geotechnical engineer to perform testing and analysis to determine the cause of the crack. The contractor will escrow 50% of the proposed costs of the geotechnical contract with the City. The contractor and the City shall use the services of a geotechnical firm acceptable to both parties. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of a structural crack is due to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship, the deficient concrete pavement will be removed and replaced at Contractor's entire expense and the Contractor will also pay the City for the balance of the cost of the geotechnical investigation over and above the amount that has previously been escrowed. If the geotechnical engineer determines that the primary cause of the structural crack is not due to Contractor's deficient material or workmanship, the concrete pavement will not be removed and replaced without additional compensation to the Contractor. In turn, the Contractor's escrowed funds, as described above, will be released. 70. NON -PAY ITEM - CLEARING AND GRUBBING: All objectionable items within the limits of this project and not otherwise provided for shall be removed under this item in accordance with Standard Specification Item 102, "Clearing and Grubbing." However, no direct payment will be made for this item and it shall be considered incidental to this contract. 71.

All channelizing devices shall be in accordance with the current edition of the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2. All Traffic Control Devices shall have working visible warning lights as required in accordance with the current edition of TMUTCD. 3. For Temporary Situations, when it is not feasible to remove and restore pavement markings, channelization must be made dominant by using a very close device spacing. This is especially important in locations of conflicting information, such as where traffic is directed over a double yellow centerline. In such locations, channelizing device spacing of 10 feet is required. 4. For Long Term Stationary work, all conflicting pavement markings must be removed and centerline striping provided where two way traffic is in adjacent lanes. 5. Contractor shall provide sidewalk closure, crosswalk closure and/or walkway bypass wherever pedestrian movements are affected by construction activities. All sidewalks and crosswalks shall be accessible when contractor is not working unless otherwise approved by the City Traffic Engineer. 6. The use of trailer mounted ARROW DISPLAYS may be required on all lane closures. The contractor shall provide one (1) stand-by unit in good working condition at the job site, ready for use, if his operation requires 24-hour a day closure set-ups and if required. 7.

PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED (CONTRACTORS) This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following: COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART 1. WHO IS AN INSURED — (Section II) is amended to include any person or organization that you agree in a "written contract requiring insurance" to include as an additional insured on this Cover- age Part, but: a) Only with respect to liability for "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal Injury"; and b) If, and only to the extent that, the injury or damage is caused by acts or omissions of you or your subcontractor in the performance of "your work" to which the "written contract requiring Insurance" applies. The person or organization does not qualify as an additional insured with respect to the independent acts or omissions of such person or organization. 2. The insurance provided to the additional insured by this endorsement is limited as follows: a) In the event that the Limits of Insurance of this Coverage Part shown in the Declarations exceed the limits of liability required by the "written contract requiring insurance", the in- surance provided to the additional insured shall be limited to the limits of liability re- quired by that "written contract requiring in- surance". This endorsement shall not In- crease the limits of insurance described in Section III — Limits Of Insurance. b) The insurance provided to the additional in- sured does not apply to "bodily injury", 'prop- erty damage" or "personal injury" arising out of the rendering of, or failure to render, any professional architectural, engineering or sur- veying services, including: I, The preparing, approving, or failing to prepare or approve, maps, shop draw- ings, opinions, reports, surveys, field or- ders or change orders, or the preparing, approving, or failing to prepare or ap- prove, drawings and specifications; and ii. Supervisory, inspection, architectural or engineering activities. c) The insurance provided to the additional in- sured does not apply to "bodily injury" or "property damage" caused by "your work" and included In the "products -completed op- erations hazard" unless the "written contract requiring insurance" specifically requires you to provide such coverage for that additional insured, and then the insurance provided to the additional insured applies only to such "bodily Injury" or "property damage" that oc- curs before the end of the period of time for which the "written contract requiring insur- ance" requires you to provide such coverage or the end of the policy period, whichever is earlier. 3. The insurance provided to the additional insured by this endorsement is excess over any valid and collectible "other insurance", whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis, that is available to the additional insured for a loss we cover under this endorsement. However, if the "written contract requiring insurance" specifically requires that this insurance apply on a primary basis or a primary and non-contributory basis, this insurance is primary to "other insurance" available to the additional Insured which covers that person or organization as a named insured for such loss, and we will not share with that "other insurance". But the insurance provided to the additional insured by this endorsement still is excess over any valid and collectible "other in- surance', whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis, that is available to the addi- tional insured when that person or organization is an additional insured under such "other insur- ance". 4. As a condition of coverage provided to the additional Insured by this endorsement: a) The additional insured must give us written notice as soon as practicable of an 'occur- rence" or an offense which may result in a claim. To the extent possible, such notice should include: CG D2 46 08 05 m 2005 The St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc. Page 1 of 2 COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY I. How, when and where the "occurrence" or offense took place; ii. The names and addresses of any injured persons and witnesses; and ill. The nature and location of any injury or damage arising out of the "occurrence" or offense. b) If a claim is made or "suit" is brought against the additional insured, the additional insured must: i. Immediately record the specifics of the claim or "suit" and the date received; and ii. Notify us as soon as practicable. The additional insured must see to it that we receive written notice of the claim or "suit" as soon as practicable. c) The additional insured must immediately send us copies of all legal papers received in connection with the claim or "suit", cooperate with us in the investigation or settlement of the claim or defense against the "suit", and otherwise comply with all policy conditions. d) The additional insured must tender the de- fense and indemnity of any claim or "suit" to any provider of "other insurance" which would cover the additional insured for a loss we cover under this endorsement. However, this condition does not affect whether the insur- ance provided to the additional insured by this endorsement is primary to "other insur- ance" available to the additional insured which covers that person or organization as a named insured as described in paragraph 3. above. 5. The following definition is added to SECTION V. — DEFINITIONS: "Written contract requiring insurance" means that part of any written contract or agreement under which you are required to include a person or organization as an additional in- sured on this Coverage Part, provided that the "bodily injury" and "property damage" oc- curs and the "personal injury" is caused by an offense committed: a. After the signing and execution of the contract or agreement by you; b. While that part of the contract or agreement is in effect; and c. Before the end of the policy period.

Specific streets and project limits are as follows: Kenley Street from Pershing Street to Birchman Street, Neville Street from Pershing Street to Calmont Street, and Wellesley Avenue from Faron Street to Hervie Street. The new roadways are planned to match their current width and alignment and will incorporate curb and gutters. This report conforms to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. Plate A.1 depicts the project vicinity and approximate locations of exploration borings. 1.2 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this geotechnical engineering study has been to determine the general subsurface conditions, evaluate the engineering characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered, develop recommendations for the type or types of pavement subgrade preparation and modification, provide pavement design guidelines, and provide earthwork recommendations. To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted in the following phases: (1) drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for testing; (2) performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to determine pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials; and (3) performing engineering analyses, using the field and laboratory data to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed construction. The design is currently in progress and the locations and/or elevations of the structure could change. Once the final design is near completion (130-percent to 90-percent stage), it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the construction documents pertaining to the geotechnical recommendations, as a means to determine that our recommendations have been interpreted as intended. 1.3 Report Format The text of the report is contained In Sections 1 through 7. All plates and large tables are contained in Appendix A. The alpha -numeric plate and table numbers identify the appendix in which they appear. Small tables of less than one page in length may appear in the body of the text and are numbered according to the section in which they occur. Report No. 771.09.06 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 1 Units used in the report are based on the English system and may include tons per square foot (tsf), kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds), kips per square foot (ksf), pounds per square foot (psf), pounds per cubic foot (pcf), and pounds per square inch (psi). 2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING 2.1 Field Exploration Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by six (6) vertical soil borings. Borings B-1 through B-6 were drilled to a depth of 10 feet below existing grades. The borings were drilled with truck mounted drilling equipment using continuous flight augers at the approximate locations shown on the Plans of Borings, Plate A.1. The boring logs are included on Plates A.4 through A.9 and keys to classifications and symbols used on the logs are provided on Plates A.2 and A.3. Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin -walled (Shelby) tube samplers at the locations shown on the Togs of borings. The Shelby tube sampler consists of a thin -walled steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the soil by the hydraulic pulldown of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to limit loss of moisture. The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand penetrometer. In this test a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the relatively undisturbed sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25 inch. The results of these tests, in tsf, are tabulated at respective sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the value is tabulated as 4.5+. To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, a modified version of the Texas Cone Penetration test was performed at selected locations. Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Test Method Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3-inch diameter cone with a 170-pound hammer freely falling 24 inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each blow. This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer freely falling 30 inches. This results in 350 foot-pounds of energy for each hammer blow. in relatively soft materials, the penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is tabulated at respective test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock or Report No. 771-09-05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 2 rock -like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for the first and second 50 blows, a total of 100 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows is recorded at the respective testing depths on the boring logs. Ground -water observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the upper right of the boring logs. Upon completion of the borings, the bore holes were backfilled with hydrated bentonite chips and properly plugged at the surface with asphalt. 2.2 Laboratory Testing Laboratory soil tests were performed on selected representative samples recovered from the borings. In addition to the classification tests (liquid limits, plastic limits, and percent passing the No. 200 sieve), moisture content, hand penetrometer, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests were performed. Results of the laboratory classification tests, moisture content, unconfined compressive strength, and unit weight tests conducted for this project are included on the boring logs. Five triaxial shear tests were performed on specimens from selected samples to evaluate shear strength properties of the subgrade soils. The triaxial shear tests included unconsolidated- undrained (UU) tests. These tests were performed for CMJ Engineering, Inc. by ML Testing, LLC. The results of the triaxial tests are presented on Plates A.10 through A.14. Two swell tests were performed on specimens from selected samples of the clays. These tests were performed to help in evaluating the swell potential of soils in the area of the proposed pavements. The results of the swell tests are presented on Plate A.15. Two Eades and Grim Lime Series tests were performed on selected samples to identify the appropriate concentration of lime to add to soils for modification purposes. The results of the lime series tests are presented on Plate A.16. Five soluble sulfate tests were conducted on selected soil samples recovered from the borings. The sulfate testing was conducted to help identify sulfate -induced heaving potential of the soils. Sulfate -induced heaving can cause detrimental volumetric changes to a lime modified subgrade. The result of the sulfate tests are presented on Plates A.17 and A.18. Report No. 771-09-05 3 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. e The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM procedures, or generally accepted practice. 3.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 3.1 Site Geology The Dallas Sheet of the Geologic Atlas of Texas indicates the site is located in an outcropping of the Duck Creek Formation of Lower Cretaceous Age. Clays are typically present at the surface underlain by tan limestone. The parent bedrock consists of hard gray limestone with some clay and interbedded calcareous shale. The formation typically weathers to form shallow deposits of active clay at the surface. These clays often contain significant quantities of limestone fragments. The Duck Creek is underlain by the much weaker Kiamichi Formation. 3.2 Soil Conditions Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings are discussed below. Note that depths on the borings refer to the depth from the existing grade or ground surface present at the time of the investigation, and the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate. Pavement is present at all the borings locations, consisting of 1 to 2 inches of asphalt surfacing in Borings B-1 through B-5, and 5 inches in Boring B-6. Gravel base material is present beneath the asphalt in Borings B-1, B-4, and B-5, with thicknesses ranging from 5 to 6 inches. Soils encountered consist of various light brown, brown, reddish brown, and gray silty clays, clays, clayey gravels, and gravelly clays. Limestone fragments and calcareous nodules are typically present within the soils, with select zones in abundance. No fill materials were noted at the boring locations. The various soils had tested Liquid Limits (LL) ranging from 27 to 60 and Plasticity Indices (PI) ranging from 14 to 39 and are classified as GC, CL and CH by the USCS. The various clays were generally stiff to hard (soil basis) in consistency, with pocket penetrometer readings of 2.5 to greater than 4.5 tsf. The soils had tested dry unit weight values ranging from 96 to 121 pcf and moisture content values range from 5 to 23 percent. Report No. 771.09.05 4 CM; ENGINEERING, INC. Tan limestone is present directly beneath the pavement in Boring B-2 and at depths of 2 to 6 feet in Borings B-1 and B-3 through 8-6. The tan limestone in Boring B-2 is fractured, contains clay seams to a depth of 4 feet, and is moderately hard (rock basis), with a Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) test value of 3'/� inches of penetration for 100 hammer blows. A 1-foot thick silty clay layer is present within the tan limestone in Boring 8-2 from 4 to 5 feet. Elsewhere, the tan limestone contains clays seams and is hard to very hard (rock basis), with Texas Cone Penetrometer (THD) test values of 0 to 1 %: inches of penetration for 100 hammer blows. 3.3 Ground -Water Observations The borings were drilled using continuous flight augers in order to observe ground -water seepage during drilling. Ground -water was not encountered during drilling in all borings. All borings were also dry at completion of drilling operations. Fluctuations of the ground -water level can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall; site topography and runoff; hydraulic conductivity of soil strata; and other factors not evident at the time the borings were performed. Ground -water can trap atop limestone layers, occur in joints or gravel seams in the clays or via more permeable strata. 4.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN 4.1 Pavement Subgrade Considerations 4.1.1 General The performance of the pavement for this reconstruction project depends upon several factors including: the characteristics of the supporting soil; the magnitude and frequency of wheel load applications; the quality of construction materials; the contractor's placement and workmanship abilities; and the desired period of design life. The success of the pavement subgrade is subgrade soil strength and control of water. Adequate subgrade performance can be achieved by modifying or stabilizing the existing soils used to construct the pavement subgrade. Pavement sections are susceptible to edge distress as edge support deteriorates over time. Therefore, care must be taken to provide and maintain proper edge support. In conjunction with a stabilized subgrade or flexible base course underlying the pavement, it is recommended that the Report No.771-09-05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 5 3,h stabilized subgrade or flexible base extend a minimum of 12 inches beyond the surface course on each side of the street. Maintenance should be provided when edge support deteriorates. 4.1.2 Suberede Preparation Considerations Anticipated subgrade materials are variable and may consist of low to moderately plastic silty clays or highly plastic silty clays and clays, with select areas consisting of limestone. Areas consisting of low plasticity clays, those with a PI of less than 20, should perform satisfactorily as a pavement subgrade if they are properly compacted as described below in Section 4.4. The higher plasticity clays, those with a PI of 20 or greater, are subject to loss in support value with the moisture increases which occur beneath pavement sections. They react with hydrated lime, which serves to improve and maintain their support value. Treatment of these soils with hydrated lime will improve their subgrade characteristics to support area paving. In select areas (Borings B-1 through B-4), a visual observation of the pavement subgrade should be considered following rough grading to determine specific materials which are present that would benefit from the addition of lime. In lieu of lime stabilization, consideration may be given to substituting a flexible base meeting TxDOT Item 247, Type A, Grade 1 on an equal basis. Limestone is present beneath the existing pavement in Boring B-2. In addition, cuts can expose the limestone. These limestones provide excellent support in an undisturbed condition; however, they are difficult to cut to finished grade and some fill may be required. Pulverization and compaction equipment often break down the limestone to a material that also benefits from stabilization, although large rock fragments hamper conventional mixing procedures. Depending on the required grades, it may be advisable to undercut such areas and place flexible base. Seasonal water seeps can occur where the tan limestones are approached or exposed by cuts. Subsoil drains may be required in some areas to intercept this seepage. This can be evaluated after grading has been performed. 4.2 Potential Vertical Movements Estimates of expansive movement potential have been estimated using TxDOT Test Method Tex 124-E. Movement potential is variable due to the variable soil materials encountered in the Report No. 771.09.05 CMJ ENGINE! HUNG, INC. 6 borings. Estimated potential vertical movements in the areas of Borings B-1 through B-4 are on the order of 1 inch or less. Potential vertical movements on the order of 1'% to 2 inches are estimated in the areas of Borings B-5 and B-6 where higher plasticity clays are present. Movements in excess of this estimate can occur if poor drainage, excessive water collection, leaking pipelines, etc. occur. Any such excessive water conditions should be rectified as soon as possible. In order to minimize rainwater infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement should be sealed on a routine basis after construction. 4.3 Sulfate -Induced Heaving Soluble sulfate testing was conducted to check for sulfate -induced heaving potential. Sulfate - induced heaving is caused when hydrated lime is added to a soil with high sulfate concentration. The lime reacts with the sulfates to cause potentially large volumetric changes in the soil. Portland cement also produces lime as a byproduct of hydration, and therefore also reacts with sulfates. Soluble sulfate levels in soils on the order of 1,000 parts -per -million (ppm) or less are usually of low concern and warrant only observation of the subgrade during the stabilization process. The soluble sulfate levels of the tested samples range from less than 100 ppm to 433 ppm. Since the samples tested were below 1,000 ppm, a single treatment process is recommended. The single treatment is described in Section 4.4. In addition, it is recommended that during the curing period of the lime treatment, the subgrade be supplied with ample moisture to allow proper hydration, and it should be checked for any volumetric changes that may indicate a sulfate -induced heaving condition. 4.4 Pavement Subgrade Preparation Lime stabilization is recommended for all subgrade areas with plastic clays, typically with Plasticity Indices greater than 20 (Kenley Street and Neville Street), while those with a PI of less than 20 (Wellesley Avenue) should perform satisfactorily if properly compacted as described below. Prior to lime addition, the subgrade should be proofrolled with heavy pneumatic equipment. Any soft or pumping areas should be undercut to a firm subgrade and properly backfilled as described in the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS). Report No. 771-09.05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 7 According to the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification, STS-003 Earthwork, Section 3.07, the pavement subgrade (stabilized or unstabilized as discussed above), should be scarified to a minimum depth of 6 inches and uniformly compacted to a minimum of 100 percent of Standard Proctor density (ASTM D 698), between minus 2 to plus 3 percentage points of the optimum moisture content determined by that test. It should then be protected and maintained in a moist condition until the pavement is placed. The presence of limestone fragments and calcareous nodules in the surficial soils can complicate mixing of the soil and lime. It is recommended a minimum of 7 percent hydrated lime be used to stabilize the clay subgrade soils. The amount of hydrated lime required to stabilize the subgrade should be on the order of 32 pounds per square yard based on a dry unit weight of 100 pcf for a 6-inch depth. The hydrated lime should be thoroughly mixed and blended with the upper 6 inches of the clay subgrade (TxDOT Item 260). The hydrated lime should meet the requirements of Item 260 (Type A) in the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways, Streets and Bridges, 2004 Edition. It is recommended that subgrade stabilization extend to at least one foot beyond pavement edges to aid in reducing pavement movements and cracking along the curb line due to seasonal moisture variations after construction. Each construction area should be shaped to allow drainage of surface water during earthwork operations, and surface water should be pumped immediately from each construction area after each rain and a firm subgrade condition maintained. Water should not be allowed to pond in order to prevent percolation and subgrade softening, and subgrade treatments should be added to the subgrade after removal of all surface vegetation and debris. Sand should be specifically prohibited beneath pavement areas, since these more porous soils can allow water inflow, resulting in heave and strength loss of subgrade soils (lime stabilized soil will be allowed for fine grading). After fine grading each area in preparation for paving, the subgrade surface should be lightly moistened, as needed, and recompacted to obtain a tight non -yielding subgrade. Surface drainage is critical to the performance of this pavement. Water should be allowed to exit the pavement surface quickly. All pavement construction should be performed in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 4.6. Report No. 771.00.06 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 8 4.5 Pavement Sections 4.5.1 Design Methodologv Pavement analyses were performed using methods outlined in the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993 Edition, published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition. The design equations were solved using AASHTO Pavement Analysis Software. In the AASHTO method, traffic loads are expressed in Equivalent 18-kip Single Axle Loads (ESAL) over the design life of the pavement structure. 4.5.2 Wellesley Avenue Based on the results of the field and laboratory investigation and on soil plasticity properties, the following design parameters were used in our thickness design calculations for the proposed streets (soil parameters were conservatively established for the soils that are expected to exhibit lower bearing strengths): Subgrade Soils Silty Clay / Limestone Design Life 25 years Initial Serviceability 4.5 Terminal Serviceability 2.0 Reliability 80% Overall Deviation (rigid) 0.35 Overall Deviation (flexible) 0.45 Load Transfer Coefficient 2.7 Drainage Coefficient (rigid) 0.70 Drainage Coefficient (flexible) 0.40 Design CBR (raw subgrade) 8 Loss of Support 1.0 Concrete Modulus of Elasticity 3,604,997 psi Concrete Modulus of Rupture 630 psi The following rigid and flexible pavement sections are provided for both Residential — Rural (low volume) and Residential — Urban (high volume) street classifications.

In order to minimize rainwater infiltration through the pavement surface, and thereby minimizing future upward movement of the Report No.771-09.05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC 12 pavement slabs, all cracks and joints in the pavement should be sealed on a routine basis after construction. Proper surface drainage in the shoulders Is also critical to long term performance of the pavement. Water allowed to pond adjacent to the pavement will result in loss of edge and subgrade support and an increase in post construction heave of the pavement. 5.0 EARTHWORK 5.1 City of Fort Worth Required Specifications The City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS) covers the requirements for general earthwork, undercutting excavation and backfill for unstable subgrades for City Streets including excavation, compacted earth fill, flowable fill, and trench backfill. The design engineer may refer to this specification directly in the contract documents. Related requirements are found within the Special Technical Specification. 5.2 Utilities Based on the exploration borings, utility excavations will encounter limestone in major intact units. This limestone Is generally moderately hard to very hard and will require heavy duty specialized equipment for excavation. In addition, overexcavation should be anticipated within the limestones. Overexcavation may result from large blocks or chunks breaking along either weathered or clay seams beyond the planned excavation. Unusual problems with caving soils or collapsing materials were not noted at the boring locations. Care should be taken that utility cuts are not left open for extended periods, and that the cuts are properly backfilled. Backfilling should be accomplished with properly compacted impermeable soils, rather than granular materials in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual, 2005 Edition, Special Technical Specification (STS). Trench excavations should be sloped or braced in the interest of safety. Attention is drawn to OSHA Safety and Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910), Subpart P, regarding trench excavations greater than 5 feet in depth. Report No. 771.09-05 13 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 5.3 Erosion and Sediment Control All disturbed areas should be protected from erosion and sedimentation during construction, and all permanent slopes and other areas subject to erosion or sedimentation should be provided with permanent erosion and sediment control facilities. All applicable ordinances and codes regarding erosion and sediment control should be followed. 6.0 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS In any geotechnical investigation, the design recommendations are based on a limited amount of information about the subsurface conditions. In the analysis, the geotechnical engineer must assume the subsurface conditions are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings. However, quite often during construction anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed. Therefore, it is recommended that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to observe earthwork and foundation installation and perform materials evaluation during the construction phase of the project. This enables the geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily available to evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to recommend alternative solutions to unanticipated conditions. Until these construction phase services are performed by the project geotechnical engineer, the recommendations contained in this report on such items as final foundation bearing elevations, proper soil moisture condition, and other such subsurface related recommendations should be considered as preliminary. It is proposed that construction phase observation and materials testing commence by the project geotechnical engineer at the outset of the project. Experience has shown that the most suitable method for procuring these services is for the owner or the owner's design engineers to contract directly with the project geotechnical engineer. This results in a clear, direct line of communication between the owner and the owner's design engineers and the geotechnical engineer. 7.0 REPORT CLOSURE The borings for this study were selected by CMJ Engineering, Inc. The locations and elevations of the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used in their determination. The boring logs shown in this report contain information related to the types of soil encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the interface between these Report No. 771-09-05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 14 materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests were also performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests, along with visual -manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it should be understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of classifications for those portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soil classification tests were not performed. It is not implied that these logs are representative of subsurface conditions at other locations and times. With regard to ground -water conditions, this report presents data on ground -water levels as they were observed during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the report and on the boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground -water table can occur with passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature and other factors. Also, this report does not include quantitative information on rates of flow of ground water into excavations, on pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering excavations. Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and cannot be fully predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected conditions frequently require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly designed and constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is recommended to accommodate such potential extra cost. The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of our field investigation and further on the assumption that the exploratory borings are representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the site; that is, the subsurface conditions everywhere are not significantly different from those disclosed by the borings at the time they were completed. If, during construction, different subsurface conditions from those encountered in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we must be advised promptly so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure locations, structural loads or finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review Report No. 771-09-05 CMJ ENGINEERING, INC. 15 our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time (apse. Further, it is urged that CMJ Engineering, Inc. be retained to review those portions of the plans and specifications for this particular project that pertain to earthwork and foundations as a means to determine whether the plans and specifications are consistent with the recommendations contained in this report. In addition, we are available to observe construction, particularly the compaction of structural fill, or backfill and the construction of foundations as recommended in the report, and such other field observations as might be necessary. The scope of our services did not include any environmental assessment or investigation for the presence or absence of wetlands or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, surface water, ground water or air, on or below or around the site. This report has been prepared for use in developing an overall design concept. Paragraphs, statements, test results, boring Togs, diagrams, etc. should not be taken out of context, nor utilized without a knowledge and awareness of their intent within the overall concept of this report. The reproduction of this report, or any part thereof, supplied to persons other than the owner, should indicate that this study was made for design purposes only and that verification of the subsurface conditions for purposes of determining difficulty of excavation, trafficability, etc. are responsibilities of the contractor. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Multatech Engineering, Inc. for specific application to design of this project. The only warranty made by us in connection with the services provided is that we have used that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised under similar conditions by reputable members of our profession practicing in the same or similar locality. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made or intended.
