C: DEFINITIONS: �.� 1. TRENCHES - A trench is referred to as a narrow excavation made below the surface of I the ground in which the depth is greater than the width, where the width measured at the bottom is not greater than fifteen (15)feet. 2. BENCHING SYSTEM - Benching means excavating the sides of a trench to form one or a series'of horizontal level or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces between levels. 3. SLOPING SYSTEM-Sloping means excavating to form sides of a trench that are inclined away from the excavation. i 4. SHIELD SYSTEM-Shields used in trenches are generally referred to as "trench boxes° or -. "trench shields". Shield means a structure that is able to withstand the forces imposed on .r it by a cave-in and -protect workers within the structure. Shields can be permanent structures or can be designed to be. portable and move along as the work progresses. Shields can be either pre-manufactured or job-built in accordance with OSHA standards. 5. SHORING SYSTEM -..Shoring means a structure such as a metal hydraulic, mechanical or timber system that supports the sides of a trench and which is designed to prevent cave-ins. Shoring systems are* generally comprised of cross-braces, vertical rails, .. (uprights), horizontal rails (wales) and/or sheeting. D. MEASUREMENT - Trench depth is the vertical measurement from the top of the existing ground to the bottom of embedment or bottom of excavation. The quantity of trench safety systems shall be based on the linear foot amount of trench depth greater than five (5)feet. �~ E. PAYMENT - Payment shall be full compensation for -safety system design, labor, tools, materials, equipment and incidentals necessary for the installation and removal of trench safety systems.

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, noti-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. L E. 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.
