written permission of the Engineer to make a substitution for the material which has been specified. Where
the term "or equal," or "or approved equal" is used, it is understood that if a material, product, or piece of
equipment bearing the name so used is furnished it will be approvable, as the particular trade name was
used for the purpose of establishing a standard of qualiry acceptable to the City. If a product of any other
name is proposed for use, the Engineer's approval thereof must be obtained before the proposed substitute
is procured by the Contractor. Where the terni "or equal," or "or approved equal" is not used in the
specifications, this does not necessarily exclude alternative items or material or equipment which may
accomplish the intended purpose. However, the Contractor shall have the full responsibility of proving that
the proposed substitution is, in fact, equal, and the Engineer, as the representative of the City, shall be the
sole judge of the acceptability of substitutions. The provisions of this sub-section as related to
"Substitutions" shall be applicable to all sections of these specifications.

2. CONSTRU(�TION REQUIREMENTS: The Engineer has the authority to define erodible earth and the
authority to limit the surface area of erodible-earth material exposed by preparing right-of-way, clearing
and grubbing, the surface area of erodible-earth material exposed by excavation, borrow and to direct the
CONTRACTOR to provide temporary pollution-control measures to prevent contamination of adjacent
streams, other water courses, lakes, ponds or other areas of water impoundment. Such work may involve
the construction of temporary berms, dikes, dams, sediment basins, slope drains and use of temporary
mulches, mats seeding or other control devices or methods directed by the Engineer as necessary to control
soil erosion. Temporary pollution-control measures shall be used to prevent or correct erosion that may
develop during construction prior to installation of permanent pollution-control features, but are not
associated with permanent control features on the project.
The $ngineer will limit the area of•preparing right of way, clearing and grubbing, excavation and borrow to
be proportional to the CONTRACTOR'S capability and progress in keeping the finish grading, mulching,
seeding, and other such permanent pollution-control measures current in accordance with the accepted
schedule. Should seasonal conditions make such limitations unrealistic, temporary soil-erosion-control
measures shall be performed as directed by the Engineer. The amount of surface area of erodible-earth
material exposed at one time shall not exceed 750,000 squaze feet for each excavation operation, 750,000
square feet for each material source operation (other than from commercially operated sources), 750,000
square feet for each preparing of right-of-way operation or 750,000 squaze feet for each clearing and
grubbing operation, unless otherwise shown on the plans or with prior approval by the Engineer in writing.
The CONTRACTOR'sHall also conform to the following practices and controls. All labor, tools,
equipment and incidentals to complete the work will not be paid for directly but shall be considered as
subsidiary work to the various items included in the contract.
(a). Waste or disposal areas and construction roads shall be located and constructed in a manner that will
minimize the amount of sediment entering streams.
(b). Frequent fordings of live streams will not be permitted; therefore, temporary bridges or other structures
shall be used wherever an appreciable number of stream crossings are necessary. Unless otherwise
approved in writing by the Engineer, mech�nized equipment shall not be operated in live streams.
(c). When work areas or material sources are located in or adjacent to live streams, such areas shall be
separated from the stream by a dike or other barrier to keep sediment from entering a flo�ing stream.
Care shall be taken during the construction and removal of such barriers to minimize the muddying of a
stream.
(d). All waterways shall be cleared as soon a� practicable of falsework, piling, debris or other obstructions
placed during construction operations that are not a part of the finished work.
.,. _ .
(e). The CONTRACTOR shall take sufficient precautions to prevent pbllution of streams, lakes and
reservoirs with fuels, oils, bitumens, calcium chloride or.other harmful materials. He shall conduct and
schedule his operations so as to avoid or minimize siltation of streams, lakes and reservoirs and to avoid
interference with movement of migratory fish.
3. SUBMITTAL: Prior to the start of the applicable construction, the CONTRACTOR shall submit for
approval his schedules for accomplishment of soil-erosion-control work and his plan to keep the area of
erodible-earth material to a minimum. He shall also submit for acceptance his proposed method of soil-
erosion control on construction and haul roads and material sources and his plan for disposal of waste
materials. No work shall be started until the soil-erosion control schedules and methods of operations have
been reviewed and approved by the Engineer.

view or interfere with proper documentation shall`be used to move the camera through the sewer line.
When manually operated winches •aze used to pull the television camera through the line, telephones or
other suitable means of communications shall be set up between the two manholes of the section being
inspected to insure good communications between members of the crew.
The importance of accurate distance measurements is emphasized. Measurement for location of sewer
service taps shall be above ground by means of a meter device. Mazking on the cable, of the like, which
would require interpolation for depth of manhole, will not be allowed. Accuracy of the distance meter shall
be checked by use of a walking meter, roll-a-tape, or other suitable device, and the accuracy shall be
satisfactory to the Engineer.
The City makes no guarantee that all of the sanitary sewers to be entered are clear for the passage of a
camera. The methods used for securing passage of the camera are to be at the option of the Contractor and
