1. GENERAL: This specification covers the trench safety requirements for all trench
J excavations in order to protect workers from cave-ins. The requirements of this item
D-7
�
�
T~
�� govern all trenches for mains, manholes, vaults, service lines, and all other
_ appurtenances.
2. STANDARDS: The latest version of the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational
Safety and Health Administration Standards, 29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart P-Excavations,
are hereby made a part of this specifcation and shall be the minimum governing
requirements for trench safety.
� ` 3. DEFINITIONS:
� A. TRENCHES: A trench is referred to as a narrow excavation made below the surface of
� the ground in which the depth is greater than the width, where the width measured at the
, bottom is not greater than fifteen (15) feet. If forms or other structures are installed or
constructed in an excavation so as to reduce the dimension measured from the forms or
'°' structure to the side of the excavation to fifteen (15) feet or less at the bottom of the
.., excavation, the excavation is also considered to be a trench.
� B. BENCHING SYSTEM: Benching means excavating the sides of a trench to form one
�.- or a series of horizontal levels or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces
.�
between levels.
' C. SLOPING SYSTEM: Sloping means excavating to form sides of a trench that are
,,,,, inclined away from the excavation.
�' D. SHIELD SYSTEM: Shields used in trenches are generally referred to as "trench
r, boxes" or "trench shields." Shield means a structure that is able to withstand the forces
+ imposed on it by a cave-in and protect workers within the structure. Shields can be
�� il permanent structures or can be designed to be portable and move along as the work
r- progresses. Shields can be either premanufactured or job-built in accordance with OSHA
standards.
"' E. SHORING SYSTEM: Shoring means a structure such as a metal hydraulic,
�.< mechanical or timber system that supports the sides of a trench and which is designed to
prevent cave-ins. Shoring systems are generally comprised of crossbraces, vertical rails
' ' (uprights), horizontal rails (wales) and/or sheeting.
�
4. MEASUREMENT: Trench depth is the vertical measurement from the top of the
existing ground to the bottom of the pipe or structures. The quantity of trench safety
systems shall be based on the linear foot amount of trench depth greater than five (5)
feet.
�_ .
5. PAYMENT: Separate payment will be made only when trench excavations exceed a
... depth of five (5) feet and shall be full compensation for safety system design, labor, tools,
materials, equipment and incidentals necessary for the installation and removal of trench
safety systems.

D-59 Temnorary Erosion. Sediment. and Water Pollution Control:
`�' 1 DESCRIPTION: This item shall consist of temporary soil erosion sediment and water
r 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 directed 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.
2. CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS: The Engineer has the authority to define
;� erodible earth and the authority to limit the surface area of erodible-earth material
�� a 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
�._
D-28
�
�
��
,, during construction prior to installation of permanent pollution-control features, but are
not associated with permanent control features on the project.
, y 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
seasanal conditions make such limitations unrealistic, temporary soil-erosion-control
r measures shall be performed as directed by the Engineer. The amount of surface area of
'� y erodible-earth material exposed at one time shall not exceed 750,000 square 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 square 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, mechanized 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 flowing stream. Care shall be taken during the construction and removal of
such barriers to minimize the muddying of a stream.
x' � (d). All waterways shall be cleared as soon as practicable of falsework, piling, debris or
r other obstructions placed during construction operations that are not a part of the finished
work.
' (e). 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.
� 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
�
D-29

�
�
� 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
r"' shall be started until the soil-erosion control schedules and methods of operations have
