matter associated such as maintaining adequate and appropriate
insurance or security coverage for the project. Such local
authority for administration of the work under the Contract
shall be maintained until all business transactions executed
as part of the Contract are complete.
Should the Contractor's principal base of operations be other
than in the Fort Worth-Dallas metropolitan area, notification
of the Contractor's assignment of local authority shall be
made in wr-:.ting to the Engineer in advance of any work on the
project, all appropriately signed and sealed, as applicable,
by the Contractor's responsible officers with the
understanding that this written assignment of authority to a
local representative shall become part of the project Contract
as though bound directly into the project documents. The
intent of these requirements is.that all matters associated
with the Contractor's administration, whether it be oriented
in furthering the work, or other, be governed direct by local
authority. This same requirement is imposed on insurance and
surety coverage. Should the Contractor's local representative
fail to perform to the satisfaction of Engineer, the Engineer,
at his sole discretion, may demand that such local
representative be replaced and the Engineer may, at his sole
discretion, stop all work until a new local authority
satisfactory to the Engineer is assigned. No credit of
working time will be for periods in which work stoppages are
in effect for this reason.

Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday.
Calendar Days shall be defined in C1-1.24 and the Contractor

C7-7 (3)
C7-7.7 TIME OF COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION: The Contractor
shall commence the working operations within the time
specified in the Contract Documents and set forth in the Work
Order. Failure to do so shall be considered by the Owner as
abandonment of the Contract by the Contractor and the Owner
may proceed as he sees fit.
The Contractor shall maintain a rate of progress such as will
insure that the whole work will be performed and the premises
cleaned up in accordance with the Contract Documents and
within the time established in such documents and such
extension of time as may be properly authorized by the Owner.
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
extension of the time of completion be requested such request
will be.forwarded to the City Council for approval .
In adjusting the contract time for completion of work,
consideration will be given to unforseeable causes beyond 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,
quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, or delays
of sub-contractors due to such causes.
When the date of completion is based an a calendar day bid, a
request 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
order dates and other pertinent data as requested by the
Engineer indicates that the Contractor has made a bonafide
attempt to secure delivery on schedule. This shall include
efforts 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 work 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 Contractor shall receive no compensation

compensation is claimed a written statement thereof shall be
' presented by the Contractor to the Engineer and if by him
. found correct shall be approved and referred by him to the
� Council for final approval or disapproval; and the action
thereon by the Council shall be final and binding. If delay
is caused by specific orders given by the Engineers to stop
C work, or by the performance of extra work, or by the failure
of the City to provide material or necessary instructions for
carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the
rs Contractor to an equivalent extension of time, his application
for which 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 f rom all his
obligations hereunder which shall remain in full force until
� the discharge of the contract.

out above, is a reasonable f orecast of just compensation due
the City for harm caused by any delay.

suspend operations on such part or parts of the work ordered
by any court, and will not be entitled to additional

detrimental to the interest of the project. During temporary
suspension of work covered by this contract, for any reason,
the Owner will make no extra payment for stand-by.time of
construction equipment and/or construction crews.
If it should become necessary to suspend work for an
indefinite period, the Contractor shall store all materials in
such manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public
unnecessarily nor become damaged in any way, and he shall take
every precaution to prevent damage or deterioration of the
work performed; he shall provide suitable drainage about the
work, and erect temporary structures where necessary.
Should the Contractor not be able to complete a portion of the
project due to causes beyond the control of and without the
fault or negligence of the Contractor as set forth in

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
and that the inability of the Contractor to proceed is not
attributable in whole or in part to the fault or neglect of
the Contract, then if the Owner cannot after reasonable effort
assist the Contractor in procuring and making available the
necessary 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

`" agents. The Sureties, in such event shall assume the
Contractor's place in all respects, and shall be paid by the
Owner for all work performed by them in accordance with the
�� terms of the Contract Documents. All monies remaining due the

been payable under the Contract if the same had been completed
� by the Contractor, then the Contractor and his Sureties shall

Description: This specification includes requirements to rehabilitate existing
sanitary� sewers by the pipe enlargement system, herein called Pipe Bursting or
Pipe Crushing (Pipe Bursting/Crushing). This system includes splitting or bursting
the existing pipe to install a new polyethylene pipe and reconnect existing sewer
service connections.
2. Methods: This section specifie°s the approved system method or process to include
all labor, materials, tools, equipment and incidentals necessary to provide for the
complete rehabilitation of �eteriorated gravity sewer lines by the Pipe
Bursting/Crushing systems. Approved methods include: the PIM Corporation (PIM
System), Piscata Way, New Jersey; McLat Construction (McConnell System for
Pipe Crushing), Houston, Texas; and Trenchless Replacement Systems, (TRS
System), Calgary, Canada. Refer to Part D- SPECIAL �ONDITIONS D-61
SIBSTITUTIONS for information regarding pre-approval procedures for alternative
processes.
3. 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 for�h 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 �rushes 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,
and Fort Worth Water Department.
