This law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required too underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the nonresident's principal place of business is located. 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. A.

(Attached) D-67 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 11, 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. E.

Provide a suitable jacking head and bracing between jacks so that pressure will be applied to the pipe uniformly around the ring of the pipe. Provide a suitable jacking frame or back stop. Set the pipe to be jacked on guides, properly braced together, to support the section of the pipe and to direct it in the proper line and grade. Place the whole jacking assembly so .. as to line up with the direction and grade of the pipe. In general, excavate embankment material just ahead of the pipe and material removed through the pipe. Force the pipe through the embankment with jacks into the space ,r provided. b. The excavation for the underside of the pipe, for at least 1/3 of the , circumference of the pipe, shall conform to the contour and grade of the pipe. Provide a clearance of not more than 2" for the upper half of the pipe. This clearance shall be tapered off to zero at the point where the excavation conforms to the contour of the pipe. Extend the distance of the excavation beyond the end of the pipe depending on the character of the material, but do not exceed 2' in any case. Decrease the distance if the character of the material being excavated makes it desirable to keep the advance excavation closer to the end of the pipe. ASC - 42 UK PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS No C. If desired, use a cutting edge of steel plate around the head end of the pipe extending a short distance beyond the end of the pipe with inside angles or .w lugs to keep the cutting edge from slipping back onto pipe. d.
