Engineer's review and approval will not extend to means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction (except where a particular means method, technique, sequence or procedure of ' construction zs specifically and expressly called for by the Contract Documents) or to safety precautions or programs incident thereto. The review and approval of a separate item as such will not indicate approval of the assembly in which the item functions.

Determinations of the actual quantities and � classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by Owner's Representative. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to cover Contractor's overhead and profit for each separately identified item. The � Uwner or Contractor may make a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price if: (i)the yuantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Contract Documents; and (ii) there is no � cprresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work; and (iii) if Contractar believes that Contractar is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of having incurred a�lditional expense or the Owner believes that the Owner is entitled to a decrease in Contract � Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any such increase or decrease. On unit price contracts, Owner endeavors to provide adequate unit yuantities to satisfactarily complete the construction of the project. It is expected that in the normal course of project � construction and completion that not all unit yuantities will be used in their entirety and that a fi�nalizing change order which adjusts contract unit quantities to those unit quantities actually used in the construction of the project will result in a net decrease from the original Contract � P�ice. Such reasonable deduction of final Contract Price should be anticipated by the Contractor in his original bid. � S�mctionlll.doc Page 30 of 49 7/31/2012 � � � � Section III—General Conditions 12 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT TIME � The Contract Time (or Milestones) may only be changed by a Change Order or a Written Amendment.

See SECTION lll, ARTICLE 18 — ORDER AND LOCATION OF THE WORK. ,' S EXCAVATION FOR UNDERGROUND WORK T"he contractor is responsible to take all necessary steps to conduct all excavation in a manner � which provides for the successful completion of the proposed work while at all times rnaintaining the safety of the workmen, the general public and both public and private property. � The contractor's methods of work will be consistent with the standard practices and requirements o�all appropriate Safety Regulatory Agencies, particularly the Occupational Safety and Health . Administration (OSHA) reyuirements for excavation. Unless otherwise specifically stated in � t�ese plans and specifications, the methods of safety control and compliance with regulatory agency safety requirements are the full and complete responsibility of the contractor. For the purposes of the Contractor's safety planning in the bidding process, the contractor is to ' consider all excavation to be done in the performance of this contract to be in soil classified as OSHA "Type C". The Contractor's attention is called to specific requirements of OSHA for e�ccavation shoring, employee entry, location of excavated material adjacent to excavation, the � removal of water from the excavation, surface encumbrances and in particular the requirement of a "Competent Person" to control safety operations. The Contractor will identify his Competent Person to City staff at the start of construction. � City staff are required from time to time to perform inspections, tests, survey location work, or other similar activity in an excavation prepared by the contractor.

The cutting of pipe for inserting valves, fittings, or closure pieces shall be done in a neat and � workmanlike manner without damage to the pipe or cement lining and so as to leave a smooth end at right a:ngtes to the axis of the pipe. Pipe shall be laid with bell ends facing in the direction of laying unless directed otherwise by the � Engineer. Where pipe is laid on the grade of 10 per cent or greater, the laying shall start at bottom and shall proceed upward with the bell ends of the pipe upgrade. Wherever it �s necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line, either in the vertical or horizontal � plane to avord obstructions or to plumb stems; or where long radius curves are permitted, the amount of deflection allowed shall not exceed that allowed under the latest edition of ANSUAWWA C600-82 and C900 81 or latest revisions. � No pipe shall be laid when, in the opinion of the Engineer,trench conditions are unsuitable.

' An entry slope grade of 2 1/2:1 maximum shall be used to provide a safe bending radius far the polyethylene. The bottom of the entry pit should provide a straight section for ease of entry of the liner into the existing pipe. The length of the level excavation should be at least twelve times ' t}�e diameter of the liner being inserted. The width of the shaft should be as narrow as possible. T'�e required width will depend on the location, type of soil, depth of the existing sewer line and t}we water table. � 46.4.4 INSERTION OF THE LINER After completion of the access shaft, the top half of the existing sewer shall be broken or cut and , rpnoved for the full length of the access shaft.

Ir�sertion is normally done at about a slow walking speed.After insertion, a minimum of 12 hours ' shall be allowed for the liner pipe to reach equilibrium with the sewer temperature and to allow the liner pipe to stress relieve itself. 'The polyethylene liner pipe should protrude at least 6 inches into the manhole where it � tetminates. After the 12-hour equilibrium period, the annular space between the original pipe and the liner � shall be pressure grouted. Said grouting must be from the bottom up to prevent air pockets from forming. Also the grout must be recommended for underwater application and have elastomeric ptoperties. Products used shall be approved by the engineer. � The liner shall not be displaced when the annular space is being filled. Spacers, inflatable plugs or other methods approved by the Engineer must be used to prevent displacement. The length of fused pipe that can be pulled will vary depending on field conditions, the ease of � aCcess to the area, and the working space available. 46.4.5 CONFIRMATION OF PIPE SIZES ' The Contractor shall be solely responsible to confirm all pipe sizes prior to ordering, fusing and installation of the liner.

Cost far backfillin�;of access shafts and underdrain connections shall be including in the unit price bid ' for sliplining and reconnection of service laterals. Before any excavation is done for any purpose, it will be the respansibility of the contractor to contact the various utility companies and to determine the locations of their facilities. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to provide � adequate protection for utility facilities.Any temporary construction right of way and/or storage areas will be��rranged for by the contractor. � 46.4.8 POINT REPAIR The engineer or his representative will determine if a point repair is necessary only after it has , been demonst:rated that a liner pipe cannot be pulled through the existing pipe. Payment will be made for each� repair. The contractor will be expected to remove the obstruction and clear the pipe. If removing the top � of the existin;g pipe will accomplish the removal of the obstruction, the bottom of the existing pipe should re;main in place to form a cradle for the liner. � 46.4.9 CLEAN UP OPERATIONS All materials not used in the backfilling operation shall be disposed of off site by the contractor. Finish gradin€; shall be required. In locations other than street right-of-ways, the surface shall be , graded smoot� and sodded with the same kind of grass as the existing lawn.
