C7-7.7 TIME OF COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION: The Contractor
shall commence the working operations within the tim~
specified in the Contract Docum~nts and set forth in the Work

C7-7.8 EXTENSION OF TIME COMPLETION: The Contractor's request
for an extension of time of completion shall be considered
only when the request for such extension is submitted in
writing to the Engineer within seven days from and after the
time alleged cause of delay shall have occurred. Should an

will be forwarded to the City Council for approval.
In adjusting the contract time f~r completion of work,
consideration will be given to unforseeable causes ~eyond the
control of and without the fault or negligence of the
Contractor, including but limited to acts of the public enemy,
acts of the Owner, fire, flood, tornadoes, epidemics,
quara~tine . restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, or delays
of sub-contractors due to such causes.
When the dat~ of completion is based on a calendar day bid, a
r~quest for extension of time because of inclement weather
will not be considered. A request for extension of time due
to inability to obtain supplies and materials will be
considered only when a review of the Contractor's purchase
ord2r dates and other pertinent data as requested by the
Engineer indic~tes that the Contractor has made a bonafide
attem;,t to secure deliv~ry on schedule ... This shall' include
~fforts to obtain the supplies and materials from alternate
sources in case the first source cannot make delivery.
If satisfactory execution and completion of the contract
should require wor~ and materials in greater amounts or
quantities than those set forth in the approved Contract
Documents, then the contract time may be increased by Change
Order.
C7-7.9 DELAYS: The Contr~ctor :shall receive no com?ensation
for delays or hindrances to the work, except when direct and
unavoidable extra cost to the Contractor is caused by the
failure of the City to provide information or materi~l, if
C7-7 <4l
..
~\ ·.~
.,.,.....::;
any, ~hich is to be furnished by the City. When such extra
compen~ation is claimed a written statement thereof shall be
pres~nted by the Contractor to the Engineer and if by him
found correct shall be approved and referred by him to the
Council for f1nal approval or disapproval; and the action
thereon by the Council shall b~ final and binding. If delay
is caused by specific orders given by the Engineers to stop
work, or by the performance of extra work, or by the failure
of the City to provide ~aterial or necessary instructions for
carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the
Contractor to an equivalent e~tension of time, his application
for w~ich shall, however, be subject to the approval of the
City Council; and no such extension of time shall release the
Contractor or the surety on his performance bond from all his
obligations hereunder which shall remain in .full force until
the dischar;e of the contract.
C7-7.10 TIME OF COMPLETION: The time of completion is an
essential element of the contract. Each bidder shall indicate
in .the appropriate place on the last page ot the Proposal the
number of working days or calendar days that he will rPquire
to fully comple~e this contract or the time of completion will
be specified by the City in the Proposal section of the
contract documants.
The number of days indicated shall be a realistic estimate of
th~ tima required to complete the work covered by the specific
contract being bid upon. 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 eac~ calandar day that any work shall r~main uncompleted
after th~ time specified in the Contract Documents, or the
incr~as~d time granted by the Owner, or as automatically
increased by additional wor~ or materials orde~ed after the
contract is signed, the sum per day given in the following
sch..e.dul~, unless otherwise specified in other parts of the
Contract Docur.'lents, will be deducted from monies due the
Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages
suffered by the Owner.

Court Order. Neither will ·the Owner be liable to the
Contractor by virtue of any Court Order or action for which
the Owner is not solely responsible.
C7-7.12 TEMPORARY SUSPENSI0N: The Owner shall have the right

the Owner will mak2 no extra payment for stand-by time of
construction equipment and/or construction crews.

months, the Contractor shall within seven days notify the City
in writing, giving a detailed statement of the efforts which
have been made and listing all necessary items of labor,
materials, and equipment not obtainable. If, after
investigations, the Owner finds that such conditions existing

attributable in whole or in part to the fault or neglect of
the Contract, then if the Owner cannot after reasonable effort
assist th~ Contractor in procuring and making available the
neces3ary labor, materials and equipment within thirty days,
the Contractor may request the Owner to terminate the contract
and the Owner may comply with the request, and the termination
shall be conditioned and based upon a final settlement

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 N ES HAP 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
11129104 SC-49
PART D -SPECIAL CONDtTtONS
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 p ressures .
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. 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 Excava tor. (Copy of forms attached)

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
as such shaUnot 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 al lowable 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 :

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 .
SC-53
PART D -SPECIAL CONDITIONS

4.
Definition: The Pipe Bursting/Crushing system is defined as the reconstruction of
gravity sewer pipe by installing an approved pipe material, by means of one of the
pre-approved methods set forth in Section A.2 of this specification. The process
involves the use of a static, hydraulic or pneumatic hammer "moling" device,
suitably sized to break out the old pipe or using modified boring "knife" with a
flared plug that implodes and crushes the existing sewer pipe. Forward progress
of the "mole" or the "knife" may be aided by the use of hydraulic equipment or
other apparatus, as specified in the approved methods. The replacement pipe is
either pulled or pushed into the bore. The method allows for replacement of pipe
sizes from 8" through 21" and/or upsizing in varying increments up to 21 ". This
specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing system
used has been pre-approved by the City of Fort Worth Department of Engineering,
