VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. 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. Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State law. A copy of the Statute is attached . Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders . / B. Our principal place of business or corporate offices are i n the State of Texas.

In no case shall any type of equipment be allowed on the unprotected geotextile . 3. RIPRAP PLACEMENT: Stone for riprap shall be placed on the filter fabric blanket in such a manner as to produce a reasonably well graded mass of rock with the min imum practicable percentage of voids and shall be constructed within the specified tolerance to the lines and grades shown on the drawings . The intent of these specifications is to require placement of riprap to the thickness shown and to allow isolated stones to extend as much as six inches above grade. Riprap shall be placed to its full course thickness at one operation and in such a manner as to avoid disp lacing the fabric . The large r stones shall be well distributed and the enti re mass of stones in their final position shall conform to the gradation specified hereinbefore. The finished riprap shall be free from objectionable pockets of small stones and clusters of larger stones . The desired distr ibution of the various sizes of stones ASC-16 PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS throughout the mass shall be obtained by select ive load ing of the material at the quarry or other source , by controlled dumping of successive loads during final placing , or by other methods of placement which will produce the specified results .

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 riprapped surface a distance in excess of 10 fee t. 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 equ ipment. 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 , f lowing water, and mechanical inj ury.

ElOO (1) PART E -MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS TRANSPORTATION AND PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR MANHOLE JOINT SEALING A. GENERAL This specification covers a cold-applied performed flexible butyl rubber or plastic sealing compound for sealing interior and/or exterior joints on concrete manhole sections. It governs all manholes, vaults, etc., constructed for the City of Fort Worth Water Department, excluding only the joints using a trapped type performed 0-ring gasket, and shall require a bitumastic joint sealant in all joints as per Figure M attached . B. MA TE RIALS This sealant shall be preformed and trowelable bitumastic as manufactured by Kent-Seal, Ram-Nek, E-Z Stick or equal. The joint sealer shall be supplied in either extruded rope-form of suitable cross- sectional area or flat tape form and shall be sized as recommended by the manufacturer and approved by the Engineer. The joint sealer shall be protected by a suitable removable wrapper and shall not in any way depend on oxidation, evaporation , or any other chemical action for either its adhesive properties or cohesive strength. The joint sealer shall remain totally flexible without shrinking, hardening, or oxidizing regardless of the length of time it is exposed to the elements. The manufacturer shall furnish an attidavit attesting to the successful use of the product as a performed flexible joint sealant on concrete pipe and manhole sections for a period of at least five years. C. INSTALLATION OF JOINT SEALANT Each grade adjustmen t ring and manhole frame shall be sealed with the abo ve specified materials. All surfaces to be in contact with the joint sealant shall be thoroughly cleaned of dirt, sand, mud, or other foreign matter. A primer shall be applied to all surfaces prior to installing the joint sealant in accordance with the recommendations by the manufacturer. The protectiv e paper wrapper shall remain on the joint sealant until immediately prior to placement of the pipe in the trench. After removal of the protective paper wrapper, the joint sealant shall be kept clean. Install frames and cover over manhole opening with the bottom of the rings resting on bitumastic joint sealer. Manhole frames and covers shall be McKinley, Type N , with indented top design, or equal, with pick slots. 1. Frames, unless otherwise shown on the drawings , shall rest on two (2) rows (inside and outside) of bitumastic joint sealer. 2. Grade adjustment rings shall also rest on two (2) rows of bitumastic joint sealant. D. SEALI N G AND/OR ADJUSTING EXISTING MANHOLES Excavate (rectangular full depth saw cut if in pavement) adjacent to the manhole to expose the entire manhole frame and a minimum of 6 inches of the manhole wall keeping the sides of the trench nearly vertical. 1. Remove manhole frame from the manhole structure and observe the cond ition of the frame. The existing frame shall be used where v er possible . Any existing frame shall be used wherever possible . Any frame that is not suitable for use as determined by the Engineer shall be replaced. Separate and observe the condition of the grade adjustment rings . If the grade rings are loose , de teriorated , broken , or show structural defects, replace them in accordance w ith these specifications. Replace adjustments that are constructed of brick, block, or materials other than precast concrete with precast concrete rings , or where necessary, and approved by the Engineer, a precast flattop section. Precast conc rete rings , or a precast concrete flattop section w ill be the only adjustments allowed. 2 . In brick or block manholes where it is difficuit to determine where grade adjus tments and walls meet, replace the upper portion of the manhole to a point 24 inches below the frame. If the walls or cone section below this level are structurally unsound, notify the Eng ineer prior to replacement of the grade adjustments or manhole f rame . Existing brickwork , which is structura ll y satisfactory, if damaged by t he Contractor, shall be replaced at the Contractor's expense. 3.
