SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of a Contract with the Lowest Responsive and Responsible Bidder,
Tri-Tech Construction, Inc., in an Amount Up to $2,000,000.00 for the Miscellaneous
Storm Drain Improvements Contract-2011 and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance (ALL
COUNCIL DISTRICTS}
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council :
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a Contract with the lowest responsive and responsible
bidder, Tri-Tech Construction, Inc., in an amount up to $2 ,000,000 .00 for Miscellaneous Storm Drain
Improvements Contract-2011;
2. Authorize the transfer of $1,500,000.00 from the Storm Water Utility Operating Fund to Storm
Water Capital Projects Fund; and
3. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Storm Water Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $1,500,000 .00 from
available funds .
DISCUSSION:
The Storm Water Management program was established to reduce flooding in Fort Worth, preserve
streams, minimize water pollution and to operate the storm water system in a more effective manner
to fully comply with state and federal regulatory requirements . This will be accomplished by
infrastructure reconstruction and system maintenance , master planning, enhanced development
review and increased public education and outreach.
The $1,500,000.00 authorized for transfer, per this M&C will be combined with existing funding to fully
fund the contract plus the funds necessary for right-of-way and easement acquisition, inspection and
survey services.
The work to be performed under this Contract consists of minor extensions, replacements and/or
improvements to existing storm water systems and other pertinent construction required to provide a
more effective drainage system to neighborhoods within the City limits of Fort Worth. There is not a
pre-defined single project scope for this Contract, but rather work orders will be issued on the
Contract as needs arise. The price of each work order will be based on the unit prices bid with the
cumulative amount of all work orders issued under this Contract capped at $2 ,000 ,000 .00. This
contracting tool will enhance the City's responsiveness to minor drainage infrastructure needs that
arise periodically by precluding the need to conduct an independent solicitation and award process
for each small project.
The bid amounts cited below were based on hypothetical quantities for the purpose of establishing
unit prices for each work item. The bid specifications stipulate that regardless of the dollar amount
bid, the Contract would be awarded in an amount up to $2,000 ,000.00. Final payments will be made
based on actual measured quantities . Funding will be verified individually for each work order prior to
its release. The bid documents do not include provisions for the City to exercise renewal options.

16. AIR POLLUTION WATCH DAYS : The Contractor shall be required to observe the following guidelines

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

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.

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 comparab le 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.

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 respons ibility
of being aware that such days have been designated Air Pollution Watch Days and as such shall
not begin work until 10:00 a .m . whenever construction phasing requires the use of motorized

the Work Order in the amount of time provided for in the Work Order. Should the Contractor fail to
start any Work Order within the time specified, he shall add the necessary work crews and
equipment to prosecute the work to complete the Work Order or Work Orders in the time provided
therefore.
36 WORK ORDER COMPLETION TIME: Should the contractor fail to complete an individual work
order in the given amount of days as specified on each individual work order, liquidated damage
charges will be subtracted from the final pay estimate of that particular work order. The estimated
amount for each particular work order will be used for determining the amount of damages
charged per day of time exceeding the specified amount.
The time of completion of each individual work order is an essential element of this contract. Each
work order issued will have the maximum allowed number of days allowed for the completion of
that specific work.
The number of days specified will generally be calculated as follows: The total estimated cost for
the specific work order divided by 2000 (rounded up) + 10 days = Number of Days allowed for
Construction of Individual Work Order.
37 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: The Contractor shall pay liquidated damages of one hundred dollars
($100.00) per day per Work Order, for failure to begin a Work Order within ten (10) calendar days
of the date the Work Order is faxed to the Contractor. Failure to complete project within the
stipulated construction time on the Work Order, the Contractor will pay liquidated damages in the
amount stipulated in these contract documents.
38 PAYMENT: Whenever the improvements prescribed by an individual Work Order have been
completed, the Contractor shall notify the Project Engineer or City representative. The Project
Engineer or other appropriate official of the Owner will, within a reasonable time, perform the
inspections. If such inspection reveals that the improvements are in an acceptable condition and
have been completed in accordance with the terms of the Contract Documents and all approved
modifications thereof, the Project Engineer will recommend acceptance of the work under that
particular Work Order and recommend payment therefore .
If the Project Engineer or representative finds that the work has not been completed as required,
he shall so advise the Contractor in writing, furnishing him an itemized list of all known items which
have not been completed or which are not in an acceptable condition. When the Contractor has
corrected all such items, he shall again notify the Project Engineer that the improvements are
ready for inspection, and the Project Engineer shall proceed as outlined above.
Whenever the improvements prescribed by the individual Work Order have been completed and
all requirements of the Contract Documents have been fulfilled on the part of the Contractor, an
estimate showing the value of the work will be prepared by the Project Engineer or representative
as soon as the necessary measurements, computations, and checks can be made.
The amount of the estimate will be paid to the Contractor after acceptance by the Owner , provided
the Contractor has furnished to the Owner satisfactory evidence of payment as follows: Prior to
submission of the estimate for payment, the Contractor shall execute an affidavit, as furnished by
SP-14
the City, certifying that all persons, firms, associations, corporations, or other organizations
furnishing labor and/or materials under that Work Order have been paid in full , that the wage scale
established by the City Council in the City of Fort Worth has been paid , and that there are no
claims pending for personal injury and/or property damages.
The acceptance by the Contractor of the individual payment as aforesaid shall operate as and shall
release the Owner from all claims or liabilities under the Contract for anything done or furnished or
relating to the work under that Work Order or any act or neglect of said City relating to or
connected with the Contract.
The making of the payment by the Owner shall not relieve the Contractor of any guarantees or
other requirements of the Contract Documents which specifically continue thereafter.

SP-28
2.0 CONSTRUCTION:
2.1 General -The gabions shall be installed in accordance with the size, type, and alignment as
shown on the plans . PVC coated gabions shall be used in the areas as specified and shown
on the plans. The placement of the gabions shall be in close conformity to the lines and
grades shown on the plans and shall be in strict accordance with these specifications .
2.2 Geotextile Fabric Placement -After excavation to the subgrade elevation has been
performed , the geotextile fabric (when specified) shall be placed to the limits as shown on the
plans . Care shall be taken not to place the fabric in a manner exceeding the limits shown on
the plans. Where splices occur , adjacent pieces of geotextile shall be overlapped a minimum
of eighteen inches (18"). Fabric shall be secured , when necessary, by pins or other suitable
means before placing the gabions. Excess fabric protrud ing past the finished gabions shall
be cut off.
2.3 Gabion Assembly -Gabions are assembled in the following steps :
1. Unfold the baskets on a hard , flat surface and stamp out all kinks .
2. Fold up the front , back , and end panels and fasten the panels together with the projecting
heavy gauge selvage wire by twisting the selvage wire around the selvage wire of the other
panel two complete turns .
3. Fold the inner diaphragm panels up and secure in the same manner.
4. Tie all edges of the diaphragms and end panels to the sides of the gabion by the tying
method as specified below.
2.4 Tying Method -PROPER TYING OF GABIONS AT ALL STEPS IN THE ASSEMBLY AND
CONSTRUCTION OF THE GABION STRUCTURE IS CRITICAL TO THE PERFORMANCE
OF THE FINISHED GABION STRUCTURE .
1. Gabions must be tied in the specified manner at each step of construction :
a.) Initial assembly
b.) Tying to adjacent gabions along all contacting edges
c.) Tying of lid to sides
d.) Tying of lid to top of diaphragms
e.) Re-tying of cut gabions
2. All tying of gabions shall be performed in the following manner (See Fig .1 ): (1 .) Cut a
length of lacing wire approximately five feet long. (2.) Secure the lacing wire onto the
gabion at the end by looping and twisting the tie wire together. (3 .) Proceed tying with
double loops (made at the same point) every five inches apart. The basket pieces should
be pulled tightly together during the tying operation . (4 .) Secure the other end of the
lacing wire by again looping and twisting the wire around itself. No other wire except of the
type supplied with the gabions may be used for tying the gabions.
2 .5 Gabion Placement -After each gabion has been assembled , it shall be placed in position
empty and shall be tied to adjacent gabions along all contacting edges in order to form a
continuously connected structural unit.
2.6 Filling Gabions -IT IS CRITICAL TO THE PERFORMANCE OF THE FINISHED GABION
STRUCTURE THAT GABIONS ARE FILLED TO THEIR MAXIMUM DENSITY WITH VOIDS
IN THE GABION MINIMIZED.
When the assembled empty gabions have been installed and tied together , the gabions shall
be filled in the following manner:
1. The gabions may be filled by machine , but shall be filled in layers or lifts not exceeding
twelve inches (12"). Care shall be taken when plac ing the rock into the gabions to
insure that the gabions are not damaged or bent. Do not drop rock from a height
greater than three feet (3'). Suitable sized and appropriate machinery will help prevent
SP-29
damage to the gabions during the filling operation. Edges of gabions and diaphragms may
be protected when necessary by tying steel reinforcement to the edges of the gabions or
other suitable guard mechanisms to prevent damage or deformation of the gabions.
2. After a twelve inch (12") layer of rock has been placed in the cell, sufficient hand
manipulation for the rock shall be performed to minimize vo ids and result in a maximum
density of rock in the gabion.
3. Gabions that are three feet (3') high shall have a looped inner tie wire installed in each cell
connecting the front and back faces of any unsupported face at the vertical third points , or
12" and 24" from the base of the gabions (See Fig.2). Individual cells may not be filled to a
height greater than twelve inches (12") above any adjacent cell unless looped inner tie wires
are installed in both directions .
4. Each gabion shall be filled to its maximum density, which is slightly higher than the sides
and the surface smoothly leveled minimizing voids.
2. 7 Closing Gabions -After the rock has been leveled , the lids shall be pried down and over with
a bar or lid closing tool until the edge of the lid and the edge of the gabion are together. Care
shall be taken so that the mesh is not excessively deformed. It should require a light
stretching in order to bring the two gabion pieces together. The heavy projecting selvage wire
of the lid shall then be twisted around the heavy selvage wire on the sides two (2) complete
turns. The lid shall then be tied to the sides of the gabions and the tops of the diaphragms in
the specified tying method. The lids of the gabions shall also be tied to adjacent gabions
along all contacting edges to insure the formation of a continuous, connecting structural unit.
Special attention shall be given that all projecting sharp ends of wire are turned in on the
completed gabion structure.
2.8 Cutting Gabions -Gabions may be cut to form curves or bevels. Overlap the cut pieces and
re-tie in the specified manner. Re-tying shall be in a manner so as to produce a closed cell
when completed. Excess mesh wire shall be cut off or shall be tightly and neatly laced down.
Care shall be taken that all projecting wire ends are turned inwards or cut off.
73 PAY ITEM -SUBDRAINS:
Pipe shall be perforated Schedule 40 PVC. Where subdrains are installed by boring or otherwise
installed under pavement, non-perforated Schedule 40 PVC shall be used. Cleanouts shall be
