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. On September 22, 2009, (Ordinance No. 18838-09-2009) the City Council approved the issuance and sale of $45,000 ,000.00 in revenue bonds for the Storm Water Capital Project Bond 2009 Fund to fund a two-year storm water capital project program. On April 28 , 2009, (M&C C-23481) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an engineering agreement with Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation for the design of the Miscellaneous Storm Drain Improvements at various sites (City Project No . 00094). One of the construction projects resulting from the design is as follows: storm drain improvements in Trail Drivers Park at NE 28th Street and storm drain improvements on Havenwood Drive. The storm drain at Trail Drivers Park will replace the existing storm drain that is blocked due to structural collapse. The new storm drain system on Havenwood Drive will replace the existing undersized storm drain system and extend the system to intercept excess flows. Property flooding occurs during heavy rain events because the existing undersized system can not handle the volume of runoff. The project was advertised for bid on November 11, 2010 and November 18, 2010 in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram .

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.

The desired distribution of the various sizes of stones throughout the mass shall be obtained by selective loading 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 . Rearranging of individual stones , by mechanical equipment or by hand will be required to the extent necessary to obtain a reasonably well graded distribution of stone spec ified above. The Contractor shall maintain the riprap protection until accepted. Any material displaced by any cause shall be replaced at his erosion to the lines and grades shown on the Drawings. 4. GROUT PLACEMENT: Grout shall be composed of cement , water and air-entraining admixture and sand mixed in the proportions of 1 part of Portland cement to 3 parts of sand, sufficient water to produce a workable mixture, and that amount of admixture which will entrain sufficient air to produce durable grout, as determined by the ENGINEER Sand for grouting shall conform to the requirements of paragraph: FINE AGGREGATE. 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 1 O feet in width, commencing at the lowest strip and work ing 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 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 work.ed 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 ASC-96 PART DA -ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS shall be permitted on the grouted surface for a period of at least 24 hours.
