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-69 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-70 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, 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 11129/04 SC-53 PART D -SPECIAL CONDITIONS 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-71 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 ( examp le : 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. The Project Manager and the Directors of the Department of Engineering, Water Department, and Department of Transportation and Public Works will be made aware of the situation . If necessary, the City Manager's Office and the appropriate city council members may also be informed . 3. Any notice that may , in the City's sole discretion, be required to be provided to interested individuals will distributed by the Engineering Department's Public Information Officer. 4. Upon receipt of the contractor's response, the appropriate City departments and directors will be notified. The Engineering 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-72 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 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 11/29104 SC-54 PART D -SPECIAL CONDITIONS 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 . D-73 FEE FOR STREET USE PERMITS AND RE-INSPECTIONS A fee for street use permits is in effect. In addition, a separate fee for re-inspections for parkway construction , such as driveways, sidewalks, etc., will be required . The fees are as follows: 1. The street permit fee is $50.00 per permit with payment due at the time of permit application. , 2 . A re-inspection fee of $25 .00 will be assessed when work for which an inspection called for is incomplete . Payment is due prior to the City performing re-inspection. Payment by the contractor for all street use permits and re-inspections shall be considered subsidiary to the contract cost and no additional compensation shall be made. 11129/04 SC-55 PART D -SPECIAL CONDITIONS ."'; -Jf :p·: ' . ,/ ' ..

The grout shall be mixed in a concrete mixer in the manner specified for concrete except that the time of mixing shall be increased to that necessary to produce a mixture having a consistency such as to permit gravity flow into the interstices of the riprap with the help of limited spading and brooming. The grout shall be used in the work within a period of one (1} hour after mixing. Retempering of ground will not be permitted. Riprap shall not be grouted when the ambient temperature is below 35 degree F. or above 95 degrees F. unless approved by the ENGINEER in writing; nor when the grout, without special protection, is likely to be subjected to freezing temperatures before final set has occurred. Prior to grouting, all surfaces of riprap shall be wetted. The riprap shall be grouted in successive longitudinal strips, approximately 10 feet in width, commencing at the lowest strip and working up the slope. Grout shall be brought to the place of final deposit by approved means, and in no case will grout be permitted to flow on the rip rapped surface a distance in excess of 10 feet. Immediately after dumping the batch of grout, it shall be distributed over the surface of the strip by the use of brooms and the grout worked into place between stones with suitable spades, trowels, or vibrating equipment. As a final operation, the grout shall be removed from the top surfaces of the upper stones and from pockets and depressions in the surface of the stone protection. After completion of any strip as specified, no workman or any load shall be permitted on the grouted surface for a period of at least 24 hours. The grouted surface shall be protected from rain, flowing water, and mechanical injury. The surface of all grouted riprap shall be cured by keeping the surface continuously wet for a period of not less than 7 days. E. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 1.

The wrapper shall be fiberglass reinforced or burlap clo t h, with lengths encircling the pipe, leaving enough opening between ends to allow the mortar to be poured inside the wrapper into the joint. Fill the joint with mortar from one side in one (1) continuous operation until the grout has flowed entirely around the pipe. During the filling of the joint, pat or manipulate the sides of the wrapper to settle the mortar and expel any entrapped air. Leave wrappers in place undisturbed until the mortar has set-up. Interior Joints: Upon completion of backfilling of the pipe trench, fill the inside joint recess with a stiff cement mortar. Prior to placing of mortar, clean out dirt or trash which has collected in the joint, and moisten the concrete surfaces of the joint space by spraying or brushing with a wet brush. Ram or pack the stiff mortar into the joint space and take extreme care to insure that no voids remain in the joint space. After the joint has been filled, level the surfaces of the joint mortar with the interior surfaces of the pipe with a steel trowel so that the surface is smooth. Interior joints of pipe smaller than 21" shall have the bottom of the bell buttered with mortar, prior to inserting the spigot, such that when the spigot is pushed into position it will extrude surplus mortar from the joint.

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 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 . 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 lugs to keep the cutting edge from slipping back onto pipe. d. When jacking of pipe has begun, carry on the operation without interruption to prevent the pipe from becoming firmly set in the embankment. Remove and replace any pipe damaged in the jacking operations . The Contractor shall absorb the entire expense . 5. CROSSINGS INSTALLED WITH TUNNEL LINER PLATE a. b.
