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
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

A. DESCRIPTION: This item shall consist of temporary soil erosion sediment and water
pollution control measures deemed necessary by the Engineer for the duration of the
contract. These control measures shall at no time be used as a substitute for the permanent
control measures unless otherwise dirccted by the Engineer and they shall not include
measures taken by the CONTRACTOR to control conditions created by his construction
operations. The temporary measures shall include dikes, dams, berms, sediment basins,
fiber mats, jute netting, temporary seeding, straw mulch, asphalt mulch, plastic liners, rubble
liners, baled-hay retards, dikes, slope drains and other devices.
B. CONSTRUCTION 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 contamina�ion 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 deyices 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
Engineer 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.
1. Waste or disposal areas and construction roads shall be located and constructed in a
manner that will minimize the amount of sediment entering streams.
2. 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 flowing stream. Care shall be taken during the construction and removal of
such barriers to minimize the muddying of a stream.
3. All waterways shall be cleared as soon as practicable of false work, piling, debris or other
obstructions placed during construction operations that are not a part of the finished work.
4. The Contractor shall take sufficient precautions to prevent pollution 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.
a C. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT: All work, materials and equipment necessary to provide
temporary erosion control shall be considered subsidiary to the contract and no extra pay will

4. Cleaning of Sewer Line - It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to remove all
internal debris out of the sewer lines and flush the sewer lines clean, disposing of
debris off-site. Debris is not to be washed downstream into other sewers. All solids
or semisolids resulting from the cleaning operations shall be removed from the site
and disposed of at no additional cost to the City. It is the responsibility of the
Contractor to secure a legal dump site for the disposal of this material. All materials
shall be removed from the site no less often than at the end of each work day. All
cost for the above-described work shall be paid for by the price bid per linear foot for
Cleaning and Television Inspection.
5. Inspection of Pipelines - Inspection of pipelines shall be performed by experienced
personnel trained in locating breaks, obstacles, and service connections by closed
circuit color television. Television inspection shall be in accordance with the
specifications contained herewith for "Pre- and Post-Construction Television
Inspection of Sanitary Sewer Lines".
INSTALLATION OF THE RESIN IMPREGNATED TUBE:
The Contractor shall designate a location where the uncured resin in the original
containers and the unimpregnated fiber-felt tube will be vacuum impregnated prior to
installation. The Contractor shall allow the Owner to inspect the materials and "wet-
out" procedure. A resin and catalyst system compatible with requirements of this
method shall be used. The quantities of the liquid thermosetting materials shall be
per manufacturer's standards to provide the wall thickness specified. All felt shall be
impregnated under vacuum. �
2. The wet-out fiber felt tube shall be installed through an existing manhole or other
approved access by means of an inversion process and the application of a
hydrostatic head sufficient to fully extend it to the next designated manhole. The
impregnated tube shall generally be inserted into the vertical inversion standpipe
with the impermeable plastic membrane side out. At the lower end of the inversion
standpipe, the felt tube shall be turned inside out and attached to the standpipe so
that a leak-proof seal is created. The inversion head will be adjusted to be of
sufficient height to cause the impregnated tube to invert from manhole to manhole
and hold the tube tight to the pipe wall and produce dimples at the side connections.
A lubricant, if used, shall be as approved by manufacturer's standards.
� Manufacturer's standards shall be closely followed during the elevated temperature
curing so as not to over-stress the felt fiber and cause damage or failure prior to
cure. In certain cases, the Contractor may elect to use a top inversion.
3. Curing: After inversion is complete, the Contractor shall supply a suitable heat
source and water or steam recirculation equipment. The equipment shall be
capable of delivering hot water or steam throughout the section by means of a pre-
strung hose, which has been perForated per manufacturer's recommendations, to
ASC-5
PART DA - ADDITiONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS
uniformly raise the water temperature above the temperature required to effect a
cure of the resin. This temperature shall be, determined by the resin/catalyst sy,stem
employed and shall be per manufacturer's standards.
4. The heat source shall be fitted with suitable monitors to gauge the temperature of
th� incoming and outgoing water or steam supply. Another such gauge sha71 be
placed at the remote manholes to determine the temperatures during cure. Initial
cure shall be deemed to be completed when inspection of the exposed portions of
the cured-in-place pipe appear to be hard and sound. The cure period shall be of a
duration recommended by the resin manufacturer, as modified for the inversion
process, during which time the recirculation of the water and/or steam and cycling of
the heat exchanger to maintain the temperature continues.
5. Cool-down: The Contractor shall cool the hardened cured-in-place pipe to a
temperature below 100 F before relieving the static head in the inversion standpipe.
Gool-down may be accomplished by introducing cool water into the inversion
standpipe to replace water or steam being drained from a small hole made in the
downstream end. Care shall be taken in the release of the static head so that a
vacuum will not be developed that could damage the newly installed cured-in-place
pipe.
F. SERVICE CONNECTIONS: After the pipe has been installed, the Contractor shall
reconnect the active service connections. This shall generally be done without excavation,
and, in the case of non-man entry pipes, from the interior of the pipeline by means of a
television camera and a cutting device that re-established them to not less than 90 percent
capacity. Existing services shall be reinstated within 18 hours of installation. Should
internal reinstatement not be possible, the services must be reconnected externally by
excavation immediately. Service saddles acceptable to the Engineer shall be utilized.
Backfill at service connections shall be cement stabilized (2 sacks per cubic yard) to a point
12 inches above the service lateral to trench intersection and shall be in accordance with
these specifications. Each reconnection shall be paid for separately. Six inch sewer lines
shall have service connections completed by external means. Contractor may re-connect
the 6" sewer line connections by internal means in special cases with the approval of the
Engineer.
G. ACCEPTANCE: The finished cure-in-place pipe shall be continuous over the entire length
of an inversion run between manholes and be smooth and free from substantial wrinkles, as
well as defects, and improper house connections. Should any of these defects occur, the
line shall be excavated, repaired and/or replaced and complete restoration made to the
satisfaction of the City at no additional cost.
H
The watertightness of the pipe shall be tested for leaks under a positive head during cure
with allowances being made for end leakage and temperature effects.
CLEAN-UP: Upon acceptance •of the installation work and testing, the Contractor shall
restore the project area affected by his operations to original or better conditions.
PATENTS: The Contractor shall warrant and save harmless the City and all of its officers,
agents, and employees against all cfaims for patent infringement and any loss thereof.

1. Description: This specification includes requirements to rehabilitate exisiing sanitary
sewers by the pipe enlargement system, herein called Pipe Bursting or Pipe
Crushing (Pipe Bursting/Crushing). This system incfudes splitting or bursting the
existing pipe to install a new polyethylene pipe and reconnect existing sewer service
connections. _
2. Methods: This section specifies the approved system method or process to include
all labor, materials, tools, equipment and incidentals necessary to provide for the
complete rehabilitation of deteriorated 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 INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS for information regarding
pre-approval procedures for alternative processes.
3. Definition: The Pipe BurstinglCrushing system is de�ned as the reconstruction of
gravity sewer pipe by installing an approved pipe material, by means of one of the
pre-approved methods set forth in Section A.2 of this specification. The process
involves the use of a static, hydraulic or pneumatic hammer "mofing" device, suitably
sized to break out the old pipe or using modified boring "knife" with a flared plug
that implodes and crushes the existing sewer pipe. FonNard 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 1North Water

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 concrete rings, or a precast concrete flattop section will be the only adjustments
allowed.
2. In brick or block manholes where it is difficult to determine where grade adjustments 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
Engineer prior to replacement of the grade adjustments or manhole frame. Existing
brickwork, which is structurally satisfactory, if damaged by the Contractor, shall be
replaced at the Contractor's expense.

material in lieu of preformed gasket material. Position the butt joint of each length of joint
material on opposite sides of the manhole. Not steel shims, wood, stones, or any
material not specifically accepted by the Engineer may be used to obtain final surface
elevation of the manhole frame.
6. In paved areas or future paved areas, castings shall be installed by using a straight edge
not less than ten (10) feet long so that the top of casting will conform to the slope and
finish elevation of the paved surface. The top of the casting shall be 1/8 inch below the
finished elevation. Allowances for the compression of the joint material shall be made
to assure a proper final grade elevation.
7. Manhole rims in parkways, lawns and other improved lands shall be at an elevation not
more than (1) inch or less than one half (1/2) inch above the surrounding ground. Backfill
shall provide a uniform slope ,from the stop of manhole casting for not less than three (3)
feet each direction to existing finish grade of the ground. The grade of all surfaces shall
be checked for proper slope and grade by string lining the entire area regraded near the
manhole.
8. Manholes in open fields, unimproved land, or drainage courses shall be at an elevation
shown on the drawings or minimum of 6 inches above grade.
E. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
The price bid for new manhole installations shall include the cost of joint sealing and payment

Construction, Inc. in the amount of $549,597.50 for Main 390 Drainage Area Sanitary Sewer System
Rehabilitation and Improvements (Group 6, Contract 1) Part 6, Unit 3.
DISCUSSION:
On February 17, 1998 (M&C C-16610), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an
engineering agreement with A.N.A. Consultants, L.L.C. to prepare plans and specifications for the
reduction of inflow/infiltration in the sanitary sewer main 390 drainage area.
The project is part of the City's Integrated Wet Weather Wastewater Management Program to comply
with an administrative order from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to eliminate sewer
overflows from the City's wastewater collection system.
The project is generally bound on the north by Scott Avenue, on the south by East Lancaster Avenue,
on the east by Beach Street, and on the west by Sycamore Creek. The proposed improvements
consist of the replacement of approximately 3,700 linear feet of primarily 8-inch sewer pipe.
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8, Mapsco 78 A and E.
The project was advertised for bid on April 1 and 8, 1999. On April 29, 1999, the following bids were
