Work Change Directive, a claim may be made therefore as provided in these General Conditions.
Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the

occurrence or event, unless Owner's Representative allows additional time for claimant to
submit additional or more accurate data in support of the claim, and shall be accompanied by
claimant's written statement that the claimed adjustment covers all known amounts to which the
claimant is entitled as a result of said occurrence or event. No claim for an adjustment in the
Contract Price will be valid if not submitted in accordance with this paragraph. The value of any
Work covered by a Change Order or of any claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will be
determined as follows: (i) where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the
Contract Documents, by application of such unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (ii)
where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by
a mutually agreed lump sum (which may include an allowance for overhead and profit), (iii)
where the Work is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and
agreement is reached to establish unit prices for the Work.
Where the wark involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and
where the Owner's Representative, the Owner, the Engineer, the Engineer's Consultant, and
Contractor cannot mutually agree on a lump sum price, the City of Clearwater shall pay for
directed changes in the WORK, on "COST REIMBURSEMENT" basis. The Contractor shall
apply for compensation, detailing Contractors forces, materials, equipment, subcontractors, and
other items of direct costs required for the directed work.
The application for Cost Reimbursement shall be limited to the following items:
1. Labor, including foremen, for those hours associated with the direct work (actual
• payroll cost, including wages, fringe benefits, labor insurance and labor taxes
established by law). Expressly excluded from this item are all costs associated with
negotiating the subject change.
2. Materials associated with the change, including sales tax. The costs of materials shall
be substantiated through vendors' invoices.
Renta) or equivalent rental costs of equipment, including necessary transportation
costs if specifically used for the WORK. The rental rates shall not exceed the current
rental rates prevailing in the locality or as defined in the rental Rate Blue Book for
Construction Equipment (a.k.a. DataQuest Blue Book). The rental rate is defined as
the full-unadjusted base rental rate for the appropriate item of construction equipment
and shall cover the costs of all fuel, supplies, repairs, insurance, and other costs
associated with supplying the equipment for work ordered. Contractor-owned
equipment will be paid for the duration of time required to complete the work. Utilize
lowest cost combination of hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly rates. Do not exceed
estimated operating costs given in Blue Book. Operating costs will not be allowed far
equipment on stand-by.
4. Additional costs for Bonds, Insurance if required by the City of Clearwater.
The following fixed fees shall be added to the costs of the directed work performed
by the Contractor or Subcontractor.
A. A fixed fee of fifteen percent (15%) shall be added to the costs of Item 1 above. If
work is performed by a subcontractor, the Contractor's fee shall not exceed five
• percent (5%), and the subcontractor's fee shall not exceed ten percent (] 0%).
B. A fixed fee of ten percent (10%) shall be added to the costs of Item 2 above.
SectionIll_2012.doc Page 29 of49 7/11/2012
Section Ill — General Conditions
C. No markup shall be added to the costs of ltems 3 and 4. �
The fixed fees shall be considered the full compensation for all cost of general
supervision, overhead, profit, and other general expense.
11.2 ALLOWANCES AND FINAL CONTRACT PRICE ADJUSTMENT
It is understood that Contractor has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the
Contract Documents and shall cause the Work so covered to be furnished and performed for such
sums as may be acceptable to Owner and Engineer. Contractor agrees that: (i) the allowances
include the cost to Contractor (less any applicable trade discounts) of materials and equipment
required by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and (ii)
Contractor's costs for unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs, overhead,
profit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract
Price and not in the allowances and no demand for additional payment on account of any of the
foregoing will be valid.
Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by Owner's
Representative to reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of Work covered by
allowances and all the Work actually performed by the Contractor, and the Contract Price shall
be correspondingly adjusted.
11.3 UNIT PRICE WORK
Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work,
initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to
the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of unit price work times •
the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement. The estimated quantities of
items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of
Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. 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
Owner or Contractor may make a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price if: (i) the quantity
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
corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work; and (iii) if Contractor believes
that Contractor is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of having incurred
additional expense ar 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 adeyuate unit quantities to satisfactorily
complete the construction of the project. It is expected that in the normal course of project
construction and completion that not all unit quantities will be used in their entirety and that a
finalizing 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 ariginal Contract
Price. Such reasonable deduction of final Contract Price should be anticipated by the Contractor
in his original bid.

4 ORDER AND LOCATION OF THE WORK
This article deleted. See SECTION III, ARTICLE 18 — ORDER AND LOCATION OF THE
WORK.
5 EXCAVATION FOR UNDERGROUND WORK
The contractar 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
maintaining 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
of all appropriate Safety Regulatory Agencies, particularly the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) requirements for excavation. Unless otherwise specifically stated in
these plans and specifications, the methods of safety control and compliance with regulatory
agency safety reyuirements 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
excavation shoring, employee entry, location of excavated material adjacent to excavation, the
removal of water from the excavation, surface encumbrances and in particular the reyuirement 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. City staff in conformance with
the OSHA Excavation Safety Requirements are to only enter an excavation in compliance with
these OSHA standards. The City's staff reserve the option to refuse entry into the Contractor's
excavation if, in the opinion of the City's staff, the entry into the Contractor's excavation is
unsafe or does not conform OSHA requirements. If this circumstance occurs, the contractor must
either provide the necessary safety requirements or provide alternate means for the
accomplishment of the City's work at the Contractor's expense.
The restoration quantities, if any, contained in the bid proposal for this contract to not contain
sufficient yuantities to allow the contractor to perform excavation work using strictly the "open

19.2 TESTING
The Contractor shall take all precautions to secure a perfectly watertight sewer under all
conditions. At the discretion of the City Engineer or his designee, the watertightness of a sewer
which has a crown lying below groundwater level may be tested by measuring the infiltration.
The watertighmess of sewers having crowns lying above groundwater level may be tested by
filling the pipe with water so as to produce a hydrostatic head of two feet or more above the
crown of the sewer at the upper end of the test section of the water table outside of the sewer,
whichever is higher, and then measuring the exfiltration. In no case shall the infiltration or
exfiltration exceed l 50 gallon per inch of diameter per mile per day. The Contractor shall furnish
all labor, materials and equipment to test the amount of infiltration or exfiltration under the

20.4.1 TESTING OF GRAVITY SEWERS
The Contractor shall take all precautions to secure a perfectly water tight sewer under all
conditions. The water tightness of a sewer which has a crown lying below groundwater level
may be tested by measuring infiltration. The water tightness of sewers having crowns lying
above groundwater level may be tested by filling the pipe with water so as to produce a
hydrostatic head of two feet or more above the crown of the sewer at the upper end of the test
section or the water table outside of the sewer, whichever is higher, and then measuring the
exfiltration. In no case shall the infiltration or exfiltration exceed 50 gallon per inch of diameter
per mile per day. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials and equipment to test the
amount of infiltration or exfiltration under the Engineer's direction. Where the infiltration or
exfiltration is excessive, the Contractor at his own expense shall take the necessary steps to
remedy such conditions by uncovering the sewer, remaking the joints or by replacing the entire
length of sewer as required by the Engineer. No such repaired joints may be backfilled until after
they have been tested and found to be acceptable. Care shall be taken to avoid flotation. The
Contractor shall TV inspect all mains to verify the true and uniform grade and the absence of
bellies or dropped joints prior to acceptance. Any infiltration, dips or sags of more than 1/4-
inches shall be cause for rejection. •

Ci of Clearwater - Erosion Control •
tY
This notice is to inform the prime contractor that the City of Clearwater holds them responsible
for soil erosion control on their site.
The City of Clearwater Engineering Department has the responsibility to minimize the amount of
soil erosion into the City's streets, storm sewers and waterways.
The construction of a new residence or commercial site and major remodeling of an existing site
creates a potential for soil erosion. These instances are usually the result of contractors and
subcontractors accessing the properiy with equipment or construction materials. Then rain storms
redistribute the eroded soil into the adjacent streets, storm systems and waterways.
When erosion takes place, a City Inspector will place a correction notice at the site. The
procedure will be as follows:
I st occurrence - Warning
2nd occurrence - $32 Re-inspection Fee
3rd occurrence - $80 Re-inspection Fee
4th occurrence - Stop Work Order
Dependent on the severity of the erosion, the City's Engineering Department may elect to rectify
the erosion problem and charge the contractor accordingly.
The attached drawings and details are recommendations for the contractor to use as means to •
support the site from eroding. The contractor may elect to shovel and sweep the street daily or on
an as needed basis. However, erosion must be held in check.
If the contractor would like to meet with a City inspector on any particular site, please contact
Construction Services at 562-4750 or Planning & Development Services at 562-4741.
Erosion Control Required - City of Clearwater's Code of Ordinances requires erosion control on
all land development projects.
Erosion control must be in place and maintained throughout the job. Failure to do so may result
in additional costs and time delays to the permit holder.
Contact Engineering Department with specific questions at 562-4750.

bond. Not before the first application has begun to take an initial set (disappearance of surface
sheen which could be l5 minutes to 1 hour depending upon ambient conditions) is the second
application made to assure a minimum total finished thickness of 1/2 inch. The surface is then
troweled to a smooth finish being careful not to over trowel so as to bring additional water to the
surface and weaken it. A brush finish may be applied to the finished coat to remove trowel
marks. Manufacturer's recommendation shall be followed whenever more than 24 hours have
elapsed between applications. The wooden bench covers shall be removed and the bench is
sprayed such that a gradual slope is produces from the walls to the invert with the thickness at

62.2 ROOT PRUNING
A. Where proposed construction improvements involve excavation and/or impacts to the critical
root zone of protected trees, the Contractor sha11 be required to have an International Society
ofArboriculture (ISA) certified arborist perform, or directly supervise root pruning to reduce
the impacts of construction. The critical root zone is equivalent to the tree's dripline. Prior to
any clearing, grubbing or excavation activities, the affected roots must be severed by clean
pruning cuts at the point where grubbing or excavation impacts the root system. Roots can be
pruned utilizing specified root pruning equipment designed for that purpose or by hand
digging a trench and pruning roots with a pruning saw, chain saw or other equipment
designed for tree pruning. Root pruning by trenching equipment or excavation equipment is
strictly prohibited. Roots located in the critical root zone that will be impacted by •
SectionlV_2012.doc Page 124 of 128 5/15/2012
Section 1V — Technical Specifications
• construction activities shall be pruned to a minimum depth of 18 inches below existing grade
or t�> the depth of the proposed impact if less than 18 inches from existing grade. Tim Kurtz,
Senior Landscape Architect is the City's Representative on Engineering Department projects
for root Pruning issues and can be reached at (727) 562-4737, or through the construction
inspector assigned to the project.
B. Root pruning shall only be performed by or under the direct supervision of an lnternational
Society ofArboriculture (1SA) certified arborist.
C. Any proposed root pruning trenches shall be identified on site (i.e. staked or painted)
inspected and approved by the City's representative prior to actual root pruning.
D. Root pruning shall be performed as far in advance of other construction activities as is
feasible, but at a minimum shall be performed prior to ANY impacts to the soil. Associated
tree protection measures should be implemented upon completion of said root pruning.
E. If there is a likelihood of excessive wind and/or rain exceptional care shall be taken on any
root pruning activities.
F. Root pruning shall be limited to a minimum of ten inches per one inch of the trunk diameter
from the tree base. Any exception must be approved by the City's representative prior to said
root pruning.
G. Roots shall be cut cleanly, as far from the trunk of the tree as possible. Root pruning shall be
done to a minimum depth of 18" from existing grade, or to the depth of the disturbance if less
than 18".
• H. Root pruning shall be performed using a Doscocil Root Cutting Machine or equivalent.
Alternate equipment or techniques must be approved by the City's representative, prior to
any work adjacent to trees to be preserved.
I. Root pruning shall be completed, inspected and accepted prior to the commencement of any
excavation or other impacts to the critical root zones of trees to be protected.
J. Excavations in an area where root are present shall not cause the tearing or ripping of tree
roots. Roots must first be cleanly severed prior to continuing with the excavation, or tunneled
around to prevent damage to the root.
K. Tree roots shall not be exposed to drying out. Root ends shall be covered with native soil or
burlap and kept moist until final backfill or final grades has been established.
L. When deemed appropriate (e.g., during periods of drought) the City representative may
require a temporary irrigation system be utilized in the remaining critical root zones of root
pruned trees.
M. When underground utility lines are to be installed within the critical root zone, the root
pruning requirement may be waived if the lines are installed via tunneling or directional
boring as opposed to open trenching.
62.3 PROPER TREE PRUNING
A. All tree pruning and/or root pruning on existing trees to remain shall only be performed by or
under the direct supervision of an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) certified
arborist. Furthermore, all tree work shall conform to the American National Standards
• Institute (ANSI) 200I, American National Standard for tree care operations — Tree, Shrub and
other Woody Plant Maintenance — Standard practices (pruning) ANSI A-300.
SectionlV_2012.doc Page 125 of 128 5/15/2012
Section IV —Technical Specifications
B. Proper pruning techniques for all lateral branches of protected trees are required. Flush cuts •
(pruning cuts that remove the branch collar} and stub cuts (cuts that leave a stub on the tree)
are improper techniques. Any protected tree that has been improperly pruned will not be
recognized as a tree left on the project in a healthy growing condition, and will require
replacement consistent with the current City Codes and Ordinances.
C. No protected tree shall have more than 30 percent of its foliage removed.
D. No protected tree shall be topped, hat racked or lion-tailed. Any protected tree that has been
improperly pruned will not be recognized as a tree left on the project in a healthy growing

1.08 ENGINEER'S REVIEW OF SHOP DRAWINGS, PRODUCT DATA, WORKING DRAWINGS
AND SAMPLES
A. The ENGINEER's review is for general conformance with the design concept and contract
drawings. Markings or comments shall not be construed as relieving the CONTRACTOR from •
compliance with the contract plans and specifications or from departures therefrom. The
CONTRACTOR remains responsible for details and accuracy, for coordinating the work with all
other associated work and trades, for selecting fabrication processes, for techniques of assembly,
and for performing work in a safe manner.
B. The review of shop drawings, data, and samples will be general. They shall not be construed:
1. as permitting any departure from the Contract requirements;
2. as relieving the CONTRACTOR of responsibility for any errors, including details,
dimensions, and materials;
3. as approving departures from details furnished by the ENGINEER, except as otherwise
provided herein.
C. If the shop drawings, data or samples as submitted describe variations per Subparagraph l.06H
above, and show a departure from the Contract requirements which ENGINEER finds to be in the
interest of the OWNER and to be so minor as not to involve a change in Contract Price or time for
performance, the ENGINEER may return the reviewed drawings without noting an exception.
D. Submittals will be returned to the CONTRACTOR under one of the following codes.
Code 1- "APPROVED" is assigned when there are no notations or comments on the submittal.
When returned under this code the CONTRACTOR may release the equipment
and/or material for manufacture.
Code 2- "APPROVED AS NOTED" is assigned when notations or comments have been made
on the submittal pointing out minor discrepancies as compared with the Contract
Documents. Resubmittal or confirmation is not necessary prior to release for •
manufacturing.

All Ri�hts Reserved
• Code 3- "APPROVED AS NOTED/CONFIRM." This combination of codes is assigned when
a confirmation of the notations and comments is required by the CONTRACTOR.
The CONTRACTOR may release the equipment or materia) for manufacture;
however, all notations and comments must be incorporated into the final product.
This confir►nation is to address the omissions and/or nonconforming items that were
noted. Only the items to be "confirmed" need to be resubmitted.
Code 4- "APPROVED AS NOTED/RESUBMIT." This combination of codes is assigned
when notations and comments are extensive enough to require a resubmittals ofthe
package. This code generally means that the equipment or material cannot be released
for manufacture unless the CONTRACTOR takes fu11 responsibility for providing the
submitted items in accordance with Contract Documents. The resubmittal is to
address all comments, omissions and non-conforming items that were noted.
Resubmittal is to be received by the ENGINEER within 15 calendar days of the date
of the ENGINEER's transmitta) requiring the resubmittals.
Code 5- "NOT APPROVED" is assigned when the submittal does not meet the intent of the
Contract Documents. The CONTRACTOR must resubmit the entire package revised
to bring the submittal into conformance. It may be necessary to resubmit using a
different manufacturer/vendor to meet the Contract Documents.
Code 6- "COMMENTS ATTACHED" is assigned where there are comments attached to the
returned submittal which provide additional data to aid the CONTRACTOR.
• Code 7- "RECEIPT ACKNOWLEDGED" — This code is assigned to acknowledge receipt of a
submittal that is not subject to the ENGINEER's review and approval, and is being
filed for informational purposes only. This code is generally used in acknowledging
receipt of ineans and methods of construction work plans, field conformance test
reports, and health and safety plans.
Codes 1 through 5 designate the status of the reviewed submittal with Code 6 showing there has
been an attachment of additional data. Code 7 is used as may be necessary.
E. Resubmittals wiil be handled in the same manner as first submittals. On resubmittals the
CONTRACTOR shall direct specific attention, in writing on the letter oftransmittal and on
resubmitted shop drawings by use of revision triangles or other similar methods, to revisions other
than the corrections requested by the ENGINEER on previous submissions. Any such revisions
which are not clearly identified shall be made at the risk of the CONTRACTOR. The
CONTRACTOR shall make corrections to any work done because of this type revision that is not
in accordance to the Contract Documents as may be required by the ENGINEER.
F. If the CONTRACTOR considers any correction indicated on the shop drawings to constitute a
change to the Contract Documents, the CONTRACTOR shall give written notice thereof to the
ENGINEER at least seven (7) working days prior to release for manufacture.
G. The ENGINEER will review a submittal/resubmittal a maximum of two (2) times after which cost
of review will be borne by the CONTRACTOR. The cost of engineering shall be equal to the
ENGINEER's charges to the OWNER under the terms of the ENGINEER's agreement with the
OWNER.

1.05 PROGRESS OF THE WORK
The work shall be executed with such progress as may be required to prevent any delay to the
general completion of the work. The work shall be executed at such times and in or on such parts
of the project, and with such forces, materials and equipment to assure completion of the work in
the time established by the Contract.
PART 2- PROGRESS SCHEDULE SUBMITTALS
2.01 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
A. The CONTRACTOR shall submit a critical path schedule as described herein.
B. The critical path schedule requirement will consist of a single baseline schedule and monthly
progress schedule updates, monthly progress status reports (Monthly Status Reports). The
planning, scheduling, management, and execution of the work is the sole responsibility of the
CONTRACTOR. The progress schedule requirement is established to allow ENGINEER to
review CONTRACTOR's planning, scheduling, management and execution of the work; to assist
ENGINEER in evaluating work progress and make progress payments; to atlow other
CONTRACTORS to cooperate and coordinate their activities with those of the CONTRACTOR
to analyze delay claims; and to provide OWNER with information about "construction schedule"
and "cumulative outlay schedule".
�
C. ENGINEER's review of the schedule submittals shall not relieve CONTRACTOR from
responsibility for any deviations from the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR has in •
writing called ENGINEER's attention to such deviations at the time of submission and
ENG]NEER has given written concurrence to the specific deviations, nor shall any concurrence by
ENGINEER relieve CONTRACTOR from responsibility for errors and omissions in the
submittals. Concurrence of the CPM Activity Network by the ENGINEER is advisory only and
shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR of responsibility for accomplishing the work within the
Contract completion date(s).
D. The concurred baseline schedule, shall have legal status as long as it is used by CONTRACTOR
for planning, organizing, directing, managing, and executing the work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. Legal status will further imply that CONTRACTOR will use the schedule to
report progress and, further, that CONTRACTOR and OWNER will use the schedule for
determining delay(s) in achieving the contract date(s) stipulated in the Agreement subject to the
requirements of this section of the General Requirements.
E. ENGINEER will, upon receipt and review of each schedule submittal, either indicate in writing a
recommendation of concurrence and present the submittal to OWNER, or return the submittal to
CONTRACTOR indicating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to recommend
concurrence. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR will be required to make the necessary
corrections and resubmit. If CONTRACTOR fails to provide submittals as required, he/she will
be deemed not to have provided a basis upon which progress may be evaluated, which may
constitute reasons for refusing to recommend progress payments.
F. ENGINEER's review of the schedule submittals shall be only for conformance with the
information given in the Contract Documents and shall not extend to the means, methods,
sequences and techniques or procedures of construction or to safety precautions or programs •
incident thereto. ENGINEER's review of the schedule submittals will be predicated on a
CONTRACTOR's stamp of approval signed off by CONTRACTOR and those subcontractors and

suppliers performing work under an appropriate agreement with CONTRACTOR.
CONTRACTOR's stamp of approval on any schedule submittal shall constitute a representation to
OWNER and ENGINEER that CONTRACTOR has either determined or verified all data on the
submittal, or assumes full responsibility for doing so, and that CONTRACTOR and his
subcontractors and suppliers, have reviewed and coordinated the sequences shown in the submittal
with the requirements of the work under the Contract Documents.
2.02 FORM OF SCHEDULES
A. Prepare schedules in the form of a horizontal bar chart diagram. The diagram shall be time-scaled
and sequenced by work areas. Horizontal time scale shall identify the first work day of each week.
B. Activities shall be at least as detailed as the Bid Schedule and Schedule of Values. Activity
durations shall be in whole working days. In addition, activity man-days shall be shown for each
activity or alternatively, tabulated in an accompanying report.
C. Diagrams shall be neat and legible and submitted on sheets at least 1 1 inches by 17 inches suitable
for reproduction. Scale and spacing shall allow space for notations and future revisions.
D. The program disk, the diagrams and reports shall be prepared by using Primavera Project P]anner
5.1 or latest version. A copy of the Primavera project files using the Primavera Project Planner
"back-up" menu selection shall be prepared. Furnish the information on a compact disk with each
individual submittal.
2.03 CONTENT OF SCHEDULES
A. Each monthly schedule shail be based on data as of the last day of the current pay period.
B. Description for each activity shall be brief but convey the scope of wark described.
C. Activities shall identify ail items of work that must be accomplished to achieve substantial
completion, such as items pertaining to CONTRACTOR's installation and testing activities; items
pertaining to the approval of regulatory agencies; CONTRACTOR's time required for submittals,
fabrication and deliveries; the time required by ENGINEER to review a11 submittals as set forth in
the Contract Documents; items of work required of OWNER to support pre-operational, startup
and final testing; time required for the relocation of utilities. Activities shall also identify interface
milestones with the work of other CONTRACTORS performing work under separate contracts
with OWNER.
I. Where work is to be performed under this contract concurrently with and/or contingent upon
work performed on the same facilities or area under other contracts, the CONTRACTORS
schedule shall be coordinated with the schedules of the other contracts. The CONTRACTOR
shall obtain the schedules of the other appropriate contacts for the preparation and updating of
his schedule and shall make the required changes in his schedule when indicated by changes in
corresponding schedules.
D. Schedules shall show the complete sequence of construction by activities. Date for beginning and
completion of each activiry shall be indicated as well as projected percentage of completion for

E. Submittals schedule for shop drawing review, product data, and samples shall show the date of •
CONTRACTOR submittal and the date approved submittals will be required by the ENGINEER,
consistent with the time frames established in the Specifications.
F. For Contract Change orders granting time extensions, the impact on the Contract date(s) shall
equal the calendar-day total time extension specified for the applicable work in the Contract
change order.
G. For actual delays, add activities prior to each delayed activity on the appropriate critical path(s).
Data on the added activities of this type shall portray all steps leading to the delay, and shall
further include the following: separate activity identification, activity description indicating cause
of the delay, activity duration consistent with whichever set of dates below applies, the actual start
and finish dates of the delay or, if the delay is not finished, the actual start date and estimated
completion date.
H. For potential delays, add an activity prior to each potentially delayed activity orr the appropriate
critical path(s). Data for added activities of this type shall include alternatives available to mitigate
the delay including acceleration alternatives, and further show the following: separate activity
identification, activity description indicating cause of the potential delay, and activity duration
equal to zero work days.
The contract completion time will be adjusted only for causes specified in this contract. In the
event the CONTRACTOR requests an extension of any contract completion date, he shall furnish
such justification and supporting evidence as the ENGINEER may deem necessary for a
deterrnination as to whether the CONTRACTOR is entitled to an extension of time under the •
provision of this contract. ENGINEER will, after receipt of such justification and supporting
evidence make findings of fact and will advise the CONTRACTOR in writing thereof. If the
ENGINEER finds that the CONTRACTOR is entitled to any extension of any contract completion
date under the provision of this contract, the ENGINEER's determination as to the total number of
days extension shall be based upon the currently concurred schedule and on all data relevant to the
extension. Such data shall be included in the next monthly updating of the schedWe. The
CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that actual delays in the activities which, according to
the schedule, do not affect any contract completion date shown by the critical path in the schedule
and do not have any effect on the contract completion date ar dates, and therefore, will not be the
basis for a change therein.
From time to time, it may be necessary for the contract schedule and/or completion time to be
adjusted by the ENGiNEER to reflect the effects of job condition, weather, technical difficulties,
strikes, excusable delays on the part of the OWNER or his representatives, and other unforeseeable
conditions which may indicate schedule adjustments and/or completion time extension. Under
such conditions, the CONTRACTOR shall reschedule the work and/or contract completion time to
reflect the changed conditions, and the CONTRACTOR shall revise his schedule accordingly. No
additional compensation shall be made to the CONTRACTOR for such schedule changes except
for excusable overall contract time extension beyond the actual completion of all unaffected work
in the contract, in which case the CONTRACTOR shall take all possible action to minimize any
time extension and any additional cost to the OWNER. It is specifically pointed out that the use of
available float time in the schedule may be used by the OWNER as defined by the ENGINEER, as
well as by the CONTRACTOR. Float time is defined as the amount of time between the early
start date, and the late start date, or the early finish date and the late finish date, of any of the
activities in the schedule. •

K. The OWNER controls the float time in the concurred schedule, and, therefore, without obligation
to extend either the overall completion date or any intermediate completion dates set out in the
schedule, the OWNER may initiate changes to the contract work that absorb float time onty.
OWNER-initiated changes that affect the critical path on the approved schedule shall be the sole
grounds for extending (or contracting) said completion dates. CONTRACTOR-initiated changes
that encroach on the float time identified in the concurred schedule may be accomplished with the
OWNER's concurrence. Such changes, however, shall give way to OWNER-initiated changes
competing for the same float time.
2.04 SUPPORTING NARRATIVE
A. Status and Scheduling reports identified below shall contain a narrative (progress report) to
document the project status, to explain the basis of CONTRACTOR's determination of durations,
describe the contract conditions and restraints incorporated into the schedule, and provide an
analysis pertaining to potential problems and practical steps to mitigate them.
B. The narrative shall specifically include:
1. Actual completion dates for activities completed during the report period, and actual start dates
for activities commenced during the report period.
2. Anticipated start dates for activities scheduled to commence during the fo(lowing report
period.
3. Changes in the duration of any activity and minor logic changes.
4. The progress along the critical path in terms of days ahead or behind the Contract Date.
5. If the Monthly Status Report indicates an avoidable delay to the Contract Completion date or
interim completion dates as specified in the Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall identify the
problem, cause and the activities affected and provide an explanation of the proposed
corrective action to meet the milestone dates involved or to mitigate further delays.
6. If the delay is thought to be unavoidable, the CONTRACTOR shall identify the problem,
cause, duration, specific activities affected and logic restraints of each activity.
7. The narrative shall, in addition, also discuss all change order activities whether included or not
in the revised/current schedule of legal status. Newly introduced change order work activities,
and the CPM path(s) that they affect, must be specifically identified. All Change Order work
activities added to the schedule shall conform with the sequencing and Contract Time
requirements of the applicable Change Order.
8. Original Contract date(s) shall not be changed except by Contract Change Order. A revision,
as specified in Article 2.09 below, need not be submitted when the foregoing situations arise
unless required by ENGINEER. Review of a report containing added activities will not be
construed to be concurrence with the duration or restraints for such added activities; instead
the corresponding data as ultimately incorporated into the appticable Contract Change Order
shall govern.
9. Should ENGINEER reyuire additional data, this information shall be supplied by
CONTRACTOR within l 0 calendar days.
C. Progress under the concurred CPM schedule shall be evaluated monthly by the CONTRACTOR
and the ENGINEER. Once each month, at a time mutually agreed upon, the CONTRACTOR and
the ENGINEER shall hold a Construction Progress Meeting at a location designated by the
ENGINEER. This meeting shall be attended by the CONTRACTOR's highest ranking field
manager and scheduler, if requested by the ENGINEER, the designated home office project
managers or officers. Similar representatives of the CONTRACTOR's mechanical and electrical
subcontractors as well as any other subcontractors or suppliers designated by the ENGINEER,
shall also attend the meetings. At the meetings all matters relating to job progress witl be
discussed, and commitments made will be considered as binding. Not less than seven calendar

completion for all activities, actual start and finish dates, and remaining durations, as appropriate.
Activities not previously included in the latest detailed schedule of legal status shall be added,
except that contractual dates will not be changed except by change order. Review of a revised
diagram by ENGINEER will not be construed to constitute concurrence with the time frames,
duration, or sequencing for such added activities; instead the corresponding data as ultimately
incorporated into an appropriate Change Order shall govern.
2.07 STARTUP SCHEDULE
A. At least 90 calendar days prior to the date of substantial completion, CONTRACTOR shall submit
a time-scaled (days after notice to proceed) diagram detailing the work to take place in the period
between 60 days prior to substantial completion and substantial completion, together with a

• 3. Set precast concrete sections plumb with a 1/4-in maximum out of plumb tolerance
allowed. Seal joints of precast sections with either a rubber O-ring set in a recess or
preformed flexible joint sealant in sufficient quantity to fill 75 percent of the joint cavity.
Fill the outside and inside joint with non-shrink mortar and finish flush with the adjoining
surfaces. Caulk the inside of any leaking joints with lead wool or non-shrink grout to the
satisfaction of the Engineer.
•
4. Plug holes in the concrete sections required for handling with a non-shrink grout or non-
shrink grout in combination with concrete plugs. Finish flush on the inside.

B. Assemble manhole in lace• fill and oint all liftin holes and exterior joints within 6-ft of the •
P , P g
ground surface with an approved non-shrinking mortar. Test prior to placing the shelf and
invert and before filling and pointing the horizontal joints below 6-ft of depth. Lower ground
water table below bottom of the manhole for the duration of the test. Plug all pipes and other
openings into the manhole and brace to prevent blow out.
C. Fill manhole with water to the top of the cone section. If the excavation has not been backfilled
and no water is observed moving down the surface of the manhole, the manhole is satisfactorily
water-tight. If the test, as described above is unsatisfactory as determined by the Engineer, or if
the manhole excavation has been backfilled, continue the test. A period of time may be
permitted to allow for absorption. Following this period, refill manhole to the top of the cone, if
necessary and allow at least 8 hours to pass. At the end of the test period, refill the manhole to
the top of the cone again, measuring the volume of water added. Extrapolate the refill amount
to a 24-hour leakage rate. The leakage for each manhole shall not exceed one gallon per
vertical foot for a 24-hour period. If the manhole fails this requirement, but the leakage does
not exceed three gallons per vertical foot per day, repairs by approved methods may be made as
directed by the Engineer. If leakage due to a defective section of joint exceeds three gallons per
vertical foot per day, the manhole shall be rejected. Uncover the rejected manhole as necessary
and to disassemble, reconstruct or replace it as directed by the Engineer. Retest the manhole
and, if satisfactory, fill and point the interior joints.
D. No adjustment in the leakage allowance will be made for unknown causes such as leaking
plugs, absorptions, etc. It will be assumed that all loss of water during the test is a result of
leaks through the joints or through the concrete. •
E. An infiltration test may be substituted for an exfiltration test if the ground water table �s above
the highest joint in the manhole. If there is no leakage into the manhole as determined by the
Engineer, the manhole will be considered water-tight. If the Engineer is not satisfied, testing
shall be performed as previously described.
3.03 CLEANING
A. Thoroughly clean all new manholes and precast boxes of all silt, debris and foreign matter of
any kind, prior to final inspections.

joints. All pipe systems shall be flushed clean and then subjected to a hydrostatic pressure test for
12 hours at a test pressure and temperature specified below. Should the temperature not be
attainable under hydrostatic conditions, then the test may be performed under hydradynamic
conditions, if accurate measurements for loss of the test fluid can be made, or the pressure shall be
proportionally increased to simulate the stresses of the higher temperature in relation to the lowest
system temperature expected during the duration of the test. The proportionally higher test
pressures shall be determined in accordance with the accepted temperature versus strength
properties as published by the pipe manufacturer, PPI or other pipe material standards
organization.
B. The test pressures and temperatures for the various pipelines shalt be as follows:
1. Chemical feed piping: 150 psi at ] 00 degrees F.
2. Drain piping: I S psi at ambient temperature
3. Vent piping: 1 S psi at ambient temperature
C. The test shall be performed by slowly filling the piping system, expelling entrapped air from all
high points. The fill rate shall be controlled so that the fluid velocity within the pipe system is less
than 2 fps. Upon completion of the filling process, the system shall be brought up to the specified
test temperature as applicable, holding the system pressure to less than ] 0 percent of the test
pressure. Once the system has been stabilized at the specified test temperature, the pipe should be
slowly brought up to the test pressure in such a manner so as to not create shock, surge or water
hammer in the pipe system. The test duration time limit shall not begin until the full pressure •
specified above has been reached and the system has been stabilized to within 5 percent of the test
temperature. The system pressure and temperature shall be maintained to within 1/2 percent but

Only straight butt joints are allowed for field splices. Make splices on a bench. Use a
power saw and guide to cut straight ends to be spliced. Heat fuse weld splices using a
Teflon coated thermostatically controlled waterstop splicing iron following the
manufacturer's recommendations. The finished splices shall provide a cross-section that
is dense and free of porosity. ENGINEER may conduct destructive tests of splices by
cutting along one half of the splice length and by cutting perpendicular to the splice at
several locations on the remaining half of the splice length. T'he right of the ENGINEER
to make such tests shall not be construed as creating any obligation to make such tests,
and not exercising this right to do so shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from meeting
the requirements of these Specifications. Completed splices shall exhibit a continuous

• center bulbs or ribs greater than I/16-in, lack of fusion, porosity, pinholes, cracks,
charred or burnt material, bubbles, or separation of cooled splice when bent by hand. If a
splice displays any of these defects, reject the splice, recut back at least 1-in from rejected
splice on each side, and reweld.
2. Secure waterstops in wall joints before concrete is placed. If waterstop does not
incorporate an integral fastening system, grommets or prepunched holes, drill holes in
waterstops between the outermost ribs at each edge. Center the waterstop in the joint. Tie
both edges of the waterstop to reinforcing steel with tie wire as specified for tying
reinforcing steel. Secure the waterstop centered on and perpendicular to the joint and to
maintain this position during concrete placement.
3. Space waterstop ties to match the spacing of the adjacent reinforcing, but ties need not be
spaced closer than 12-in on center.
4. Clamp horizontal waterstops in slabs in position with the form bulkhead (unless
previously set in concrete). Lift the edge of the waterstop while placing concrete below
the waterstop. Manually force the waterstop against and into the placed concrete and
cover with fresh concrete, to provide complete encasement of the waterstop in concrete.
C. Construction Joints
1. Make construction joints only at locations shown on the Drawings or as approved by the
ENGINEER. Any additional or relocation of construction joints proposed by the
• CONTRACTOR must be submitted to the ENGINEER for written approval. Do not
eliminate construction joints.
2. Locate additiona( or relocated joints where they least impair strength of the member. In
general, locate joints within the middle third of spans of slabs, beams and girders.
However, if a beam intersects a girder at the joint, offset the joint a distance equal to
twice the width of the member being connected. Locate joints in walls and columns at the
underside of floors, slabs, beams or girders and at tops of footings or floor slabs. Do not
locate joints between beams, girders, column capitals, or drop panels and the slabs above
them. Do not locate joints between brackets or haunches and walls or columns supporting
them.

between high and low points and side to side) of 1/4-in with chipping tools to expose a
fresh face. Thoroughly clean joint surfaces of loose or weakened materials by
waterblasting or sandblasting and prepare for bonding. At least two hours before and
again shortly before the new concrete is deposited, saturate the joints with water. After
glistening water disappears, coat joints with neat cement slurry mixed to the consistency
of very heary paste. The surfaces shall receive a coating at least 1/8-in thick, scrubbed-in
• by means of stiff bristle brushes. Deposit new concrete before the neat cement dries.

INSPECTION AND COORDINATION
A. Batching, mixing, transporting, placing and curing of concrete shall be subject to the
inspection of the ENGINEER at all times. Advise the ENGINEER of readiness to proceed at
least six working hours prior to each concrete placement. The ENGINEER will inspect the
preparations for concreting including the preparation of previously placed concrete, the
reinforcing and the alignment, cleanliness and tighmess of formwork. Do not place concrete
without the inspection and acceptance of the ENGINEER.
EMBEDDED ITEMS
A. Secure to forms as required or set for embedment as required, aIl miscellaneous metal items,
sleeves, reglets, anchor bolts, anchors, inserts and other items furnished under other Sections
and required to be embedded into concrete. Set and secure such items in the locations and
alignments needed so they are not displaced by concrete placement.
B. Clean embedded items free of rust, mud, dirt, grease, oil, ice, or other contaminants which
would reduce or prevent bonding with concrete.
C. Coat or isolate all aluminum embedments to prevent aluminum-concrete reaction or
electrolytic action between aluminum and steel.

are completed and satisfactory prior to starting concrete placement. Do not place concrete
until unsatisfactory items and conditions have been corrected.
G. Position embedded anchor bolts using templates.
H. Check location, alignment, and support of anchor bolts, piping, electrical conduits, and other
items which will be fully or partially embedded in concrete before depositing concrete.
Correct mislocated and misaligned items and secure items which have become loose before
depositing concrete.
1. Correct all embedded items not installed in the location or alignment needed or displaced by
concrete placement at no additional cost to the OWNER.
CONCRETE APPEARANCE
A. Remix concrete showing either poor cohesion or poor coating of the coarse aggregate with
paste. Reject remixed concrete showing either poor cohesion or poor coating of the coarse
aggregate with paste. Make, at no additional cost to the OWNER, changes in the concrete mix
design for future deliveries only by adjusting one or more of the following if the slump is
within the allowable limit, but excessive bleeding, poor workability, or poor finishability are
observed:
The gradation of aggegate.
The proportion of fine and coarse aggregate.
The percentage of entrained air, within the allowable limits.
B. Provide concrete having a homogeneous structure which, when hardened, will have the
specified strength, durability and appearance. Provide mixtures and workmanship such that
concrete surfaces, when exposed, will require no finishing except as specified in Section
03350.
PLACING AND COMPACTING
A. Placing
Verify that all formwork completely encloses concrete to be placed and is securely
braced prior to concrete placement. Remove ice, standing water, dirt, debris, and other
foreign materials from forms and exposed joint surfaces. Confirm that reinforcement and
other embedded items are securely in place. Have a worker at the location of the
placement who can check that reinforcement and embedded items remain in designated
locations and alignments while concrete is being placed. Sprinkle semi-porous subgrades
or forms to eliminate suction of water from the mix. Do not place concrete on frozen
subgrade, snow, or ice.
2. Deposit concrete as near its final position as possible to prevent segregation due to
rehandling or flowing. Place concrete continuously at a rate that allows the concrete
previously placed to be integrated with fresh plastic concrete. Do not deposit concrete
which has partially hardened or has been contaminated by foreign materials or on
concrete which has hardened sufficiently to cause formation of seams or planes of
6349-79520/ 10/4/2012
03300- 13

weakness within the section. If the section cannot be placed continuously, place
construction joints as specified or as approved.
Pumping of concrete will be permitted. Use a mix design and aggregate sizes chosen for
pumping and submit for approval. Do not use pipelines made of aluminum or aluminum
alloy. When concrete is pumped, slump will be determined at point of truck discharge
and air content will be determined at point of placement.
4. Remove temporary spreaders from forms when the spreader is no longer needed.
Temporary spreaders may remain embedded in concrete only when made of galvanized
steel or concrete and if prior approval has been obtained.
5. Do not place concrete for supported elements until concrete previously placed in the
supporting element has attained design strength.
6. Where surface mortar is to form the base of a finish, especially surfaces designated to be
painted, work coarse aggregate back from forms to bring the full surface of the mortar
against the form. Prevent the formation of surface voids.
7. Slabs
a. After bulkheads, screeds and jointing materials have been positioned, place concrete
continuously between joints beginning at a bulkhead, edgeform, or corner. Place
each batch into the edge of the previously placed concrete to avoid stone pockets
and segregation.
b. Avoid delays in placement. If there is a delay in placement, spade and consolidate
the concrete placed after the delay at the edge of the previously placed concrete to
avoid cold joints. Bring concrete to correct level and strike off with a straightedge.
Use bullfloats or darbies to smooth the surface, leaving it free of humps or hollows.
Where slabs are to be placed integrally with the walls below them, place the walls
and compact as specified. Allow one hour to pass between placement of the wall and
the overlying slab to permit consolidation of the wall concrete. Keep the top surface
of the wall moist to prevent cold joints.
8. Formed Concrete
a. Place concrete in forms using tremie tubes taking care to prevent segregation_
Maintain bottom of tremie tubes in contact with the concrete already placed. Do not
permit concrete to drop freely more than 4-ft. Place concrete for walls in 12-in to
24-in lifts, keeping the surface horizontat. If a high-range water-reducing admixture
is used do not permit concrete to drop freely more than 15-ft; maximum lift
thickness not to exceed 7-ft.
B. Compacting
1. Consolidate concrete by vibration and puddling, spading, rodding or forking so that
concrete is completely worked around reinforcement, embedded items and openings and
into corners of forms. Continuously perform puddling, spading, rodding and forking
along with vibration of tt�e placement to eliminate air or stone pockets which may cause
honeycombing, pitting or planes of weakness.

2. Compact all concrete with mechanica] vibrators. Do not arder concrete until vibrators
(including standby units in working order) are on the job.
Use mechanical vibrators having a minimum frequency of 8000 vibrations per minute.
Insert vibrators and withdraw at points from 18-in to 30-in apart. Vibrate sufficiently at
each insertion to consolidate concrete, generally from 5 to 15 seconds. Do not over
vibrate so as to segregate. Keep standby vibrators on the site during concrete placing
operations.
4. Concrete Slabs: Vibration for concrete slabs less than 8-in thick shall be by vibrating
screeds. Vibration for concrete slabs 8-in and thicker shall be by internal vibrators and
(optionally) with vibrating screeds. Place vibrators into concrete vertically. Do not lay
vibrators horizontally or lay over.
5. Walls and Columns: Use internal vibrators (rather than form vibratars) unless otherwise
approved by the ENGINEER. In general, for each vibrator needed to melt down (level)
the batch at the point of discharge, one or more additional vibrators must be used to
densify, homogenize and perfect the surface. Insert vibrators vertically at regular
intervals, through the fresh concrete and slightly into the previous lift, if any.
Amount of Vibration: Use vibrators to consolidate properly placed concrete. Do not use
vibrators to move or transport concrete in the forms. Continue vibration until:
b.
c.
d.
Frequency of vibrator returns to normal.
Surface appears liquefied, flattened and glistening.
Trapped air ceases to rise.
Coarse aggregate has blended into surface, but has not disappeared.
3.07 CURING AND PROTECTION
A. Protect all concrete work against injury from the elements and defacements of any nature
during construction operations.
B. Curing Methods
1. Curing Methods for Concrete Surfaces: Cure concrete to retain moisture and maintain a
temperature of at least 50 Degrees F at the concrete surface for a minimum of seven days
after placement. Use the following curing methods as specifed:
a. Water Curing: Keep entire concrete surface wet by ponding, continuous sprinkling
or covered with saturated burlap. Begin water curing as soon as concrete attains an
initial set and maintain water curing 24 hours a day. Do not permit the surface of the
concrete to dry out at any time during the curing period. Temperature of curing
water shall be within 20 Degrees F of the concrete temperature.
b. Sheet Material Curing: Cover entire surface with sheet material. Anchor sheeting to
prevent wind and air from lifting the sheeting or entrapping air under the sheet.
Place and secure sheet as soon as initial concrete set occurs.

Curing compound shall NOT be placed on any concrete surface where additional
concrete or grout is to be placed, where concrete sealers or surface coatings are to be
used, or where the concrete finish requires an integral floor product. Apply curing
compound as soon as the free water on the surface has disappeared and no water
sheen is visible, but not after the concrete is dry or when the curing compound can
be absorbed into the concrete. Apply in comptiance with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
2. Specified applications of curing methods:

Min. conc temp: 55 Degree F 50 Degree F
5. Protect concrete during periods of cold weather to provide continuous warm, moist
curing (with supplementary heat when required by weather conditions) for a total of at
least 350 degree-days of curing.
a. Degree-days are defined as the total number of 24 hour periods multiplied by the
weighted average daily air temperature at the surface of the concrete (e.g., 7 days at
an average 50 degrees F= 350 degree-days).
b. To calculate the weighted average daily air temperature, sum hourly measurements
of the air temperature in the shade at the surface of the concrete taking any
measurement less than 50 degrees F as 0 degrees F. Divide the sum thus calculated
by 24 to obtain the weighted average temperature for that day.
6. Do not use salt, manure or other chemicals for protection.
7. At the end of the protection period, allow the concrete to cool gradually to the ambient
temperature. lf water curing has been used, do not expose concrete to temperatures below
those shown in Table 3 until at least 24 hours after water curing has been terminated and
air dry concrete for at least 3 days prior to first exposure to freezing temperatures.
During periods not defined as cold weather, but when freezing temperatures are expected
or occur, protect concrete surfaces from freezing for the first 24 hours after placing.
E. Hot Weather Concreting
For this Specification, "hot weather" is defined as any combination of high air
temperatures, low relative humidity and wind velocity which produces a rate of
evaporation as estimated in ACI 305R, approaching or exceeding 0.2 pounds per square
foot per hour (lb/sq ft/hr).
2. Batch, deliver, place, cure and protect concrete during hot weather in compliance with the
recommendations of ACl 305R and the additional requirements of this Section.
a. Temperature of concrete being placed shall not exceed 90 degrees F. Maintain a
uniform concrete mix temperature below this level. The temperature of the concrete
shall not cause loss of slump, flash set or cold joints.

A. Sets of field control cylinder specimens will be taken by the CONTRACTOR during the
progress of the work, in compliance with ASTM C31. The number of sets of concrete test
cylinders taken of each class of concrete placed each day shall not be less than one set per day,
nor less than one set for each 100 cu yds of concrete nor less than one set for each 5,000 sq ft
of surface area for slabs or walls_ Specimens shall be formed in 6-in diameter by 12-in long
non-absorbent cylindrical molds.
A"set" of test cylinders shall consist of five cylinders: one to be tested at seven days,
one to be tested at 14 days, and two to be tested and their strengths averaged at 28 days.
The fifth may be used for a special test at 3 days or to verify strength after 28 days if 28
day test results are low.
•
2. When the average 28 day compressive strength of the cylinders in any set falls below the
required compressive strength or below proportional minimum seven-day or 14-day •
strengths (where proper relation between seven, 14 and 28 day strengths have been

. established by tests), change proportions, cementitious content, or temperature conditions
to achieve the required strengths at no additional cost to the OWNER.
B. Provide four firmly braced, insulated, heated, closed wooden curing boxes, each sized to hold
ten specimens, complete with cold weather temperature and hot weather temperature control
thermostat for initial curing and storage from time of fabrication until shipment to
CONTRACTOR's the testing lab. Protect the specimens against injury or loss through
construction operations. Furnish material and labor required for the purpose of taking concrete
cylinder samples. All shipping of specimens will be paid for by the CONTRACTOR.
C. Slump tests will be made in the field by the CONTRACTOR immediately prior to placing the
concrete. Such tests will be made in accordance with ASTM C143. Test shall be made in
accordance with ASTM C143. When concrete is pumped, slump will be determined at point of
truck discharge. If the slump is outside the specified range, the concrete will be rejected.
D. Test for air content will be made by the CONTRACTOR on a fresh concrete sample. Air
content for concrete made of ordinary aggregates having low absorption shall be made in
compliance with either the pressure method complying with ASTM C231 or by the volumetric
method complying with ASTM C173. If aggregates with high absorptions are used, the latter
test method shall be used. When concrete is pumped, air content will be determined at point of
placement.
3.10 FIELD CONTROL
• A. The ENGINEER may have cores taken from any questionable area in the concrete wark such
as construction joints and other locations as required for deternunation of concrete quality.
The results of tests on such cores shall be the basis for acceptance, rejection or determining the
continuation of concrete work. The right of the ENGINEER to take such cores shall not be
construed as creating any obligation to take such cores, and not exercising this right to do so
shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from meeting the requirements of these Specifications.
B. Cooperate in obtaining cores by allowing free access to the work and permitting the use of
ladders, scaffolding and such incidental equipment as may be required. Repair all core holes
with non-shrink grout as specified in Section 03600. The work of cutting, testing and repairing
the cores will be at the expense of the CONTRACTOR if defective work is uncovered. If no
defective work is found, such cost will be at the expense of the OWNER.
3.11 FAILURE TO MEET REQUIREMENTS
A. Should the strengths shown by the test specimens made and tested in compliance with the
previous provisions fall below the values given in Table 1, the ENGINEER may require
changes in proportions or materials, or both, to apply to the remainder of the work in
accordance with Paragraph 1.OSE. Furthermore, the ENGINEER may require additional
curing on those portions of the structure represented by the test specimens which fall below
the values given in Table 1. The cost of such additional curing shall be at no additional cost to
the OWNER. ln the event that such additional curing does not give the strength required, as
evidenced by core and/or load tests, the ENGINEER may require strengthening or
replacement of those portions of the structure which fail to develop the required strength.
Coring and testing and/or load tests and any strengthening or concrete replacement required
because strengths of test specimens are below that specified, shall be at no additional cost to
• the OWNER. In such cases of failure to meet strength requirements the CONTRACTOR and
OWNER shall confer to determine what adjustment, if any, can be made in compliance with
6349-79520/10/4/2012 03300- 19
OO 2012 CDM Smith
All Rights Reserved
Sections titled "Strength" and "Failure to Meet Strength Requirements" of ASTM C94. The •
"purchaser" referred to in C94 is the CONTRACTOR.
B. When the tests on control specimens of concrete fall below the required strength, the
ENGINEER will permit check tests for strengths to be made by means of typical cores drilled
from the structure in compliance with ASTM C42 and C39. ln cases where tests of cores fall
below the values given in Table 1, the ENGINEER, in addition to other recourses, may require
load tests on any one of the slabs, walls, beams, and columns in which such concrete was
used. Test need not be made until concrete has aged 60 days. The ENGINEER may require
strengthening or replacement of those portions of the structure which fail to develop the
required strength. All coring and testing and/or load tests and any strengthening or concrete
replacement required because strengths of test specimens are below that specified, shall be at
no additional cost to the OWNER.
C. Should the strength of test cylinders fall below 60 percent of the required minimum 28 day
strength, the concrete shall be rejected and shall be removed and replaced at no additional cost
to the OWNER.
3.12 PATCHING AND REPAIRS
A. lt is the intent of these Specifications to require quality work including forming, mixture and
placement of concrete and curing so completed concrete surfaces will require no patching or
repairs.
B. As soon as the forms have been stripped and the concrete surfaces exposed: remove fins and
other projections; fill recesses left by the removal of form ties; and repair surface defects •
which do not impair structural strength. Clean all exposed concrete surfaces and adjoining
work stained by leakage of concrete.
C. Immediately after removal of forms remove tie cones and metal portions of ties as specified in
Section 03100. Fill holes promptly upon stripping as follows: Moisten the hole with water,
followed by a 1/16-in brush coat of neat cement slurry mixed to the consistency of a heavy
paste. Immediately plug the hole with a 1 to 1.5 mixture of cement and concrete sand mixed
slightly damp to the touch (just short of "balling"). Hammer the grout into the hole until dense,
and an excess of paste appears on the surface in the form of a spider web. Trowel smooth with
heavy pressure. Avoid burnishing.
D. When filling tie cone holes and patching or repairing exposed surfaces use the same source of
cement and sand as used in the parent concrete. Adjust color to match by addition of white
cement. Rub lightly with a fine carborundum stone at an age of one to five days if necessary to
bring the surface down with the parent concrete. Do not damage or stain the virgin skin of the
surrounding parent concrete. Wash thoroughly to remove all rubbed matter.
E. Defective concrete and honeycombed areas: Chip down square and at least 1-in deep to sound
concrete with hand chisels or pneumatic chipping hammers. Irregular voids or surface stones
need not be removed if they are sound, free of laitance, and firmly embedded in the parent
concrete. If honeycomb exists around reinforcement, chip to provide a clear space at least 3/8-
in wide all around the steel. For areas less than 1-1/2-in deep, the patch may be made in the
same manner as described above for filling form tie holes, care being exercised to use
adequately dry (non-trowelable) mixtures and to avoid sagging. Thicker repairs will require
build-up in successive 1-1/2-in layers on successive days, each layer being applied (with •
slurry, etc.) as described above_

gravel to the mixture and the proportions modified as follows:
Material Volumes Wei�hts
Cement 1.0 1.0
Sand 1.0 1 A
Pea Grave11.5 1.5
G. The CONTRACTOR may use a pre-packaged patching compound, such as: Poly-Patch by

B. Do not damage edges or obliterate the lines of chamfers, rustications or corners when �
removing the forms or doing any other work adjacent thereto.
C. Clean all exposed concrete surfaces and adjoining work stained by leakage of conerete.
D. Off-Form Finish
Remove fins and other projections and fill tie cones and defects as specified in Section
03300.
E. Rubbed Finish
Immediately upon stripping forms and before concrete changes color, carefully remove
all fins with a hammer. While the surface is still damp apply a thin coat of inedium
consistency neat cement slurry using bristle brushes to provide a bonding coat within all
pits, air holes or blemishes in the parent concrete. Do not coat large areas of the surface
with this slurry.
2. Before the slurry dries ar changes color, apply a dry (almost crumbly) grout consisting of
one volume cement to 1-1/2 volumes of clean masonry sand having a fineness modulus
of approximately 2.25 and complying with the gradation requirements of ASTM C 144.
Apply grout uniformly using damp (neither dripping wet nor dry) pads of coarse burlap
approximately 6-in square used as a float. Scrub grout into the pits and air holes to
provide a dense mortar in the imperfections to be patched.
Allow the mortar to partially harden for one or two hours depending upon the weather. If •
the air is hot and dry, keep the surface damp during this period using a fine, fog spray.
When the grout has hardened sufficiently so it can be scraped from the surface with the
perpendicular edge of a steel trowel without damaging the grout in the small pits or holes,
cut off all grout that can be removed with a trowel. Grout allowed to remain on the
surface too long will get too hard and will be difficult to remove.
4. Allow the surface to dry and rub it vigorously with clean dry burlap to completely
remove any dried grout. No visible film of grout should remain after this rubbing. The
entire cleaning operation for any area must be completed the day it is started. Do not
leave grout on surfaces overnight. Allow grout to dry after it has been cut off with the
trowel so it can be wiped off clean with the burlap.
5. On the day following the repair of pits, air holes and blemishes, the surfaces again shall
be wiped off clean with dry, used pieces of burlap containing old hardened mortar which
will act as a mild abrasive. After this treatment, there shall be no built-up flm remaining
on the parent surface. lf, however, a built-up film remains, use a fne abrasive stone to
remove all such material without breaking through the surface film of the original
concrete. Scrub lightly to remove excess material without working up a lather or mortar
or changing the texture of the concrete.
6. Follow the final bagging or stoning operation with a thorough wash-down with stiff
bristle brushes to remove extraneous materials from the surface. Spray the surface with a
fine fog spray periodically to maintain a continually damp condition for at least 3 days
after the application of the repair grout.

7. The Rubbed Finish application may be deleted by the ENGINEER if the unfinished
concrete surface is of superior quality and without surface voids.
3.02 FLOORS AND SLABS
A. Consider the potential for longer setting time in concrete containing fly ash.
B. Compact with internal vibrators as specified in Section 03300 and screed to the established
grades. Provide floors and slabs level with a tolerance of 1/8-in when checked with a 12-ft
straightedge, except where drains occur, in which case pitch floors to drains as indicated.
Failure to meet either of above shall be cause for removal, grinding, or other conection as
directed by the ENGINEER, at no additional cost to the OWNER.
C. Following screeding as specified above, float the slabs as approved by the ENGINEER.
Continue floating operation until sufficient mortar is brought to the surface to fill all voids.
Test the surfaces with a straightedge to detect high and low spots which shall be eliminated.
Do not overwark the concrete as evidenced by excess water and fne material on the surface.
D. Do not use "jitterbugs" or other special tools designed for the purpose of forcing the coarse
aggregate away from the surface and allowing a layer of mortar to accumulate on any slab
finish. Do not dust surfaces with dry materials. Round off all edges of slabs and tops of walls
with a steel edging tool. Use steel edging tool with radius of 1/4-in for all slabs subject to
wheeled traffic.
E. Measure floor flatness the day after a concrete floor is finished and before the shoring is
removed, in order to eliminate any effects of shrinkage, curling and deflection. A 12-ft long
straightedge shall be supported at each end with steel gauge blocks whose thickness are equal
to tolerance specifted. Floor surface shall not have crowns so high as to prevent 12-ft
straightedge from resting on the two end blocks, nor low spots so low that a third block of
twice the tolerance in thickness can pass under the supported straightedge. Compliance with
the designated limits in four of five consecutive measurements will confirm compliance,
unless obvious faults are observed. A check for adequate slope and drainage will also be made
to confirm compliance.
F. Descriptions
Steel Trowel Finish. Finish by screeding and floating with straightedges to bring the
surfaces to the elevations indicated. While the concrete is still green, but sufficiently
hardened to bear a person's weight without deep imprint, the surface shall be wood
floated to a true, even plane with no coarse aggregate visible. Appiy sufficient pressure
on the wood floats to bring moisture to the surface. After surface moisture has
disappeared, hand steel trowel to produce a smooth, impervious surface, free from trowel
marks. Trowel the surface again for the purpose of burnishing. The final troweling shall
produce a ringing sound from the trowel. Do not use dry cement or additional water in
troweling.
2. Broomed Finish. Steel trowei finish the concrete, as specified above but omit the final
troweling. While the concrete is still soft enough, finish the surface with a stiff coarse
fiber broom to produce the pattern and depth of scoring as approved by the ENGINEER.

proper proportions of resin, hardener and aggregate. Do not vary the ratio of components or
add solvent to change the consistency of the grout mix. Do not overmix. Do not entrain air
bubbles by mixing too quickly.
B. Monitor ambient weather conditions and contact the grout manufacturer for special placement
procedures to be used for temperatures below 60 or above 90 degrees F.
C. Place gout rapidly and continuously to avoid cold joints. Place grout in lifts in accordance
with manufacturer's recommendations.
D. Provide forms as specified in Paragraph 3AlG. Place grout into the designated areas and
prevent entrapment of air. Fill all spaces and provide full contact between the grout and •
adjoining surfaces. Provide grout holes and vent holes as necessary.
E. Minimize "shoulder" length (extension of grout horizontally beyond base plate). ln no case
shall the shoulder length of the grout be greater than the grout thickness.
F. Finish grout by puddling to cover all aggregate and provide a smooth finish. Break bubbles
and smooth the top surface of the grout in conformity with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
3.05 1NSTALLATION - CONCRETE GROUT

PART 3 EXECUTION
3.01 GENERAL
A. The control descriptions are sorted by loop number for each area. The loop index has three
columns associated with it; Loop Number, Loop Description, and Page. Each loop is associated
with a specific PLC ar I/O cabinet location to which it shall communicate.
B. The control descriptions are broken into a hierarchical layer concept. There may be one layer or •
multiple layers per loop, depending upon that loop. An example of multiple layered loop is as
follows. The lowest layer of control, local control, is at that piece of equipment or that piece of
equipment's panel or drive. The second layer of control is at an intermediate control panel
between the equipment and the SCADA I/O or vendor's PLC I/O. The third layer would be at
the vendor's PLC or microprocessor touchscreen station. The highest layer of control is by the
SCADA PLC System with its associated operator workstations in the main control room,
remote office locations, and satellite locations operator interface terminals (OITs).
The SCADA PLC refers to both the SCADA PLC, which does the actual monitoring and
control logic for the process equipment and the SCADA operator workstation, which are
computers that have graphical software that interface to the PLC software for monitoring and
implementing all operator-required tasks to control that process equipment. Any functions done
in the operator workstations also take place at all the SCADA OITs.
3.02 CONTROL FUNCTION DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL CWTERIA
A. Any interlocks that are represented, before the local operational descriptions, or are stated as
hardwired interlocks, shall interlock all the controls locally and at the SCADA PLC/HMI or at
the vendor PLCs. The SCADA PLC shall be programmed to shutdown that equipment if that
hardwired interlock is also wired to the SCADA PLC.
B. Any interlocks that are represented in a particular layer of the operational descriptions, shall
interlock all the controls in that layer and the layer after it. However the interlock shall not
interlock the commands in the layer before it.

• C. The SCADA system shall stop a motar or drive in its program if it does not receive the auto or
remote status or one of its software interlocks trip. If the drive or motor is in hand or remote it
will continue to run but the SCADA start/stop output will be open.
D. Any motor that is requested to start by an operator or an automatic program shall alarm if the
run confirm status for that motor does not activate within two seconds. If a motor stops by an
interlock or stops without any operator or SCADA intervention then that motor shall go into
alarm. Any motors that are stopped by a program or the operator shall not go into an alarm.
E. Any valve that is requested to open by an operator or an automatic program shall alarm if the
open feedback status for that valve does not activate within ten seconds. Any valve that is
requested to close by an operator or an automatic program shall alarm if the close feedback
status for that valve does not activate within ten seconds.
F. Terminology associated with interlocks is as follows:
When a contact or status is true, the SCADA computer will receive power to its input
channel. The SCADA computer registers this as a binary bit of one.
2. When a contact or status is false, the SCADA computer will receive no power (open
circuit) to its input channel. The SCADA computer registers this as a binary bit of zero.
G. When an analog signal goes outside the 4-20 mA range due to a failure at the instrument or PLC
card, the following SCADA programming shall take place:
• 1. Alarm the signal at any local OITs and in the HMI system.
2. If the analog signal is associated with a control loop or ratio control loop that loop shall go
into manual.
3. If the analog signal is used in a calculation, that calculation shall use the last good analog
signal. The computer shall place the control loop in manual if using the calculation.
H. Disable all SCADA process limit alarms (low-low, low, high, high-high) on analog inputs that
are not specifically called for in the drawings or specifications.
I. All interlocks that shutdown (Stop a piece of equipment and prevent it from being restarted or
moved) shall be shown on the faceplate pop-up graphic for that piece of equipment.
The run confrms or on status of all motors and lamps shall be accumulated to calculate a run
time status of the equipment on the HMI graphic. Each run time accumuiation shall come with a
reset button on the HMI screen.
K. All flow indications shall be totalized. Do not totalize if the analog signal is outside the 4-20
mA range. Each flow total shall include a reset button on the HMI screen accessible with
administrator privileges. Do not totalize if the value of the flow input is less than 2% of the full
range of the input.

free of defects, breaks, and damages by transportation and manufacturing
processes; and to provide baseline readings in dB.
2. Prior to removal of each cable from the delivery reel, all optical fibers within the
cables shall be tested by the CONTRACTOR using an OTDR. The OTDR tests
shall consist of end-to-end length and fiber attenuation (dB/km) measurements to
ensure proper performance of the fiber optic cable. The tests shall be performed
from both ends of each fiber to ensure complete fiber continuity within the cable
structure.
3. Pre-installation, "on-reel" test results shall be compared with the manufacturer's
test report delivered with the cable. Gross dissimilarities shall be noted and
remedied between the CONTRACTOR and manufacturer. In all cases, all fibers
must meet the optical attenuation specifications prior to cable installation.
4. The CONTRACTOR shall perform tests on all reels of cable. The Construction
Manager shall be notified a minimum of 15 days prior to any test.
5. The CONTRACTOR shall document each test and submit the report to the
Construction Manager for review. Documentation shall consist of both hard copy
and 3.5 inch electronic disk complete with all application software.
6. Cable shall not be installed until the Construction Manager has reviewed the test
report.
7. Maximum allowable attenuation is 0.5 dB/km at 1310 and 1550 nm. The
CONTRACTOR shall replace any cable in which any fiber does not meet this
requirement.
D. Post-installation tests: After FOC has been installed and connectorized, the foltowing
tests shall be performed:
• 1. Visually inspect terminal connectors for out-of-round condition and surface defects
such as micro-chips and cracks using a 200X (minimum) inspection microscope.

record of each trace of each fiber. The OTDR shall be equipped with sufficient
internal masking to allow the entire cable section to be tested. This may be
achieved by using an optical fiber pigtail of 30 feet or more to display the required
cable section.
3. The maximum permissible end-to-end loss shall be 0.5 dB/km. The
CONTRACTOR shall replace any cable in which any fiber does not meet this
requirement.
4. The OTDR shall be calibrated for the correct index of refraction to provide proper
length measurement for the known length of reference fiber.
5. A transmission test shall be performed with the use of a 1310 and 1550 nm
stabilized light sources and 1310 nm/1550 nm power meters for SMF. This test
shall be conducted in both directions on each fiber of each cable.

D. Joints for HDPE pipe shall be butt heat fusion. Butt heat fusion joints shall be made in
accordance with the requirements of ASTM D2657.
E. Installation of valves and fittings shall be in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
Particular care shall be taken not to overstress threaded connections. ln making solvent cement
connections, the solvent cement or primer shall not be spilled on valves. Any cement allowed to
run from joints shall be cleaned from the pipe and fittings immediately.
F. All piping shall have a sufficient number of unions to allow convenient removal of piping and
shall be as approved by the Engineer. PVC and CPVC pipe shal] be installed with at least one
expansion joint or loop near the center of each straight run of pipe which is 50-ft or longer with
the maximum spacing between expansion joints or loops being 150-ft.
G. Where plastic pipe passes through wall sleeves, the space between the pipe and sleeve shall be
sealed with a mechanical sealing element as specified in Section 01172.
H. All plastic pipe to metal pipe connections shall be made using flanged connections. Metal piping
shall not be threaded into plastic fittings, valves, or couplings nor shall plastic piping be threaded
into metal valves, fittings or couplings. Only socket to thread adaptors shall be used for threaded
plastic pipe connections to other threaded devices.
I. Concrete inserts for hangers and supports shall be furnished and installed in the concrete as it is
placed. The inserts shall be set in accardance with the requirements of the piping layout and the
Contractor shall verify these locations from approved piping layout drawings and the structural
drawings. Pipe hangers and supports are specified in Section ]S140.
J. Due to its large coefficient of thermal expansion, HDPE pipe shall be installed at its m�imum
operating temperature to prevent sagging between the hangers or supports. Supports at each end
of the straight HDPE pipe runs shall be of sufficient strength to develop ancharing forces
adequate to oppose the tensile forces developed in the pipe due to thermal contraction. The
exception to this requirement shall be for flanged HDPE connections, because, if the flanged
connection is made up at the maximum operating temperature, the thermal contraction of the
flange thickness will reduce the required tensile force in the flange bolts. Flanged HDPE
connections shall, therefore be made up at the lowest expected operating temperature and then the
entire piping system shall be brought up to the maximum operating temperature for final
installation. (Note: Packing the flanges in ice may be necessary to achieve the proper installation
temperature).
3.02 FIELD TESTING
A. All pipelines shall remain undisturbed for the minimum curing or cooling time specified for each
type of pipe material but no less than 8 hours to develop full curing and complete strength at all
joints. All pipe systems shall be flushed clean and then subjected to a hydrostatic pressure test for
12 hours at a test pressure and temperature specified below. Testing procedures shall be as
specified below and in Section I5051. Shoutd the temperature not be attainable under hydrostatic
conditions, then the test may be performed under hydro-dynamic conditions, provided that
accurate measurements for loss of the test fluid can be made, or the pressure shall be
proportionally increased to simulate the stresses of the higher temperature in relation to the lowest
system temperature that is expected during the duration of the test. The proportionally higher test
pressures shall be determined in accardance with the accepted temperature versus strength
properties as published by the pipe manufacturer, PPl or other pipe material standards
organization. Allowance for expansion of polyethylene pipe during the test shall be made in
accordance with PPI Technical Report TR31.

B. The test pressures and temperatures for the various pipe lines shall be as specified in Section
01445.
C. The test shall be performed by s(owly filling the piping system, expelling entrapped air from all
high points. The fill rate shall be controlled so that the fluid velocity within the pipe system is
less than 2 fps. Upon completion of the filling process, the system shall be brought up to the
specified test temperature as applicable, holding the system pressure to less than l0 percent of the
test pressure. Once the system has been stabilized at the specified test temperature, the pipe
should be slowly brought up to the test pressure in such a manner so as to not create shock, surge
or water hammer in the pipe system. The test duration time limit sha11 not begin until the full
pressure specified above has been reached and the system has been stabilized to within 5 percent
of the test temperature. The system pressure and temperature shall be maintained to within 1/2
percent but no more than 5 percent of the specified value for the temperature and within 5 psi of
the specified value for the pressure. These tolerances shall be held for the entire duration of the
test. Upon completion of the test, the pressure shall be slowly removed by opening a valve or
other pressure relieving device at a location remote to the location of the pressure/temperature
monitoring eyuipment.
D. The pressure test shall be monitored by a recording type pressure gauge for tests not requiring
temperature control or a dual pen pressure/temperature recording gauge when temperature control
is required. The entire test process shall be recorded, inciuding the initial temperature
stabilization and pressurization of the piping system. The record shall be continuous through the
system test and shall show the final de-pressurization of the pipe system.
E. All visible leaks detected during the pressure test shall be repaired and the pressure/ temperature
test rerun. A successful test shall be a test in which no visible leaks are detected and the pipe
system pressure can be maintained within 1/2 percent but no more than 5 psi of the specified
value.
F. Prior to testing, the pipelines shall be supported in an approved manner to prevent movement
during the tests.
3.03 PAINTING
A. All CPVC and PVC pipe and fittings exposed to the direct sunlight shall be field painted to
provide additional UV protection. This painting shall be required whether or not marking is
required and shall be in accordance with Section 09901.

GEOT�CHNICAL STUDIES
STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (SPT)BORINGS - E'rght (8) Standard Penetration Test (SPT}
borings (PB-1 through PB-B) were requested and were.advanced to the requested nominal depths of 20
to 75 feet beneath present grades. The borings were positioned in the field by our geatecfinician utilizing
the site plan provided to us withreference to the existing structures. The approximate locations are
illustrated on the attached Plate I.
Logs of the borings are presented in the report attachrnents indicating visual and estimated Unified
Soi1 Classification versus depth. The Standard Penetration Test (SP1� nnethod of sampling was utilized in
our studie� to secure core samples forvisual classification and to develop Standard Penetr�ation resistance
datareflective ofthe strength and bearing capability ofthe soils penetrated. A brief description ofthe SPT
method of sampling is also appended for your review.
The upper 8feet ofeach boringwas advanced with hand auger equipment as aprecaution against
enco�uitering buried utiliiy lines. A Geo-Durham hand conepenetrometer was utilized in advance of the •
hand auger to provide a measure of the relative density or consistency of the soils penetrated. The
appended hand auger logs depiet visual descriptions and estimated Unified Soil Classification
corresponding to the indicated soil straturn as well as a�raphical depiction of the hand cone penetration
resistances.
FLAT PLATE DILATOMETER TESTING - To complement the SPT borings and allow a better
characterization of the compressibitity characteristics of theloose sands and very soft to sof[ clays
evidenced byborings PB-5 and PB-6, two (2) Flat Plate Dilatometer soundings were performed adjacent
to the previously conducted SPT borings. Gra.phical depictions of the SPT blow cotmts and Dilatometer
modulus values with depth are also included in the report appendix.
LABORATORY TESTING - A limited Iaboratory testing progrann was also undertaken to aid in
characterizing,the engineering properties of the subsurf�ce sails. 0ur laboratory tests primarily included
grainsize analyses, organic content tesf.s and Atterberg limits determinations. The resulis ofour laboratory
tests are included in the report attachments.

GENERA.LIZED SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The exploratory borings have identified an upper unit of fine sands with variable silt, clay and
organic fines typically comprising the SP and SP-SIvi Unified classifications. Standard penetration
resistances suggest that the sands aregeneral ly in a loose to medium dense state of relative densiry, with
some dense sands evidenced below about 8 feet in boring P$- l,below about 18 feet in borings PB-2,
PB-3 and PB-6 and beIow about 2$ feet in boring PB-8.
Note that some of tke sands exhibited an increase in organic fines. Visual examination of the
rec�vered samples and results of laboratory testing suggest that the organic cantent is generally low. The
sands between about 14 and 1$ feet at boring location PB-3 had a slightly elevated organic cantent of 7.3
percent, by weight. However, these sands e�.ibited a medium den�e reIative density. Accordingly, these
sands would not be expected to exhibit increased compressibiliiy.
Below the sandy soils, clays were encountered ta the completian depths ofthe borings. The clays
• were typically firm to stiff, with hard variably cemented clays evidenced beiow about 42.5 feet at boring
location PB-7. However, soft to very soft clays were penetrated at around33 to 38 feet atboring location
PB-5 and below about 33 feet in borings PB-6 and PB=8.
Groundwater was encountered at depths ranging from 5.1 to b. $ feet below existing gades in the
borings. The differences are likely due principal ly to vari ations in surface grades. We would anticipate that
normal seasonal high groundwater levels may occur at about 2.5 feet below present grades.
GEOTECHNICAL EVALUATION AND FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Our geotechnical studies have identified subsurface conditions which are considered suitable for
support of the planned structures. Spec�c recommendationsfor the various structures are presente�i in the
folIowing sections_
CLEARWELL STRUCTUR� - For the clearwell structure, a soil contact,pressure ofabc�ut 2,000
pounds per square foot has been estimated. Results of tlie more sophisticated in-situ Flat Plate Dilatometer
testing indica.te highersoi}modulus values in the loose sands tl�an the SPTblow counts wouId suggest.
Dilatometer testing within the clayey soils suggest some compressibility. However, stresses within the clays
from the anticipated applied loading are anticipated to result in orily modest settlemeni. Therefore, results
Driggers Engineering Services Incorporated

of our studies indicate subsurface conditions which are suitable for support ofthe planned structure near
or slightly belaw present grade, provided modest settlements can be toIerated. Settlement belowthe center
ofthe structure is estimated to not exceed 1.25 inches for an embedmentof2.0 feet and I.S inches for an
embedment of 6 feet. The'slight increase in estimated settlement for the greater embedment results from
the base of the foundation being closer to the soft clay unit. Settlements around the perimeter are estimated
at halfofthe above �alues. Subgrade modulus values of 11 pci and 9pci are recommendedfor design of
a mat foundation at depths of 2A feet and 6.0 feet, respectively
It is also important to recognize the source of the potential settlements. Most of the expected
settlement is due to compression of upper principally sandy soils and, therefore, these settlements should
occur virtually coincident with stress application during initial tank filling. The remainder of the settlements
resulting from compression of the deeper clayey soils would be more time dependent. Nevertheless, we
would;expect that the rnajority of the total settlementswould occur within aperiod of 30 to 64 days
following tank filling.
Even though the above noted movernents can probably be tolerated without structural distress, we
would certainly suggest giving consideration to piping connections to allow for some modest rotation. In •
this regard, onemay wish fo eonsider incorporation of appropriate couplings that can a11ow far nr�odest joint
rotation.
Performance Observations - The prediction of totaJ and dii�erential settlements is based upon
analysis and judgement utilizing available geotechnical information. We would certainly recommend
estabIishing elevation points throughout the structure to permit observations of settlements during
initial tank filling and following completion of filling for as 1Qng as practical. We recommend
allowing for at least 30 days of monitaring prior to draining ofthe tank. In this way, one can
conveniently detect any localized areas where settlements may be projected to exceed predicted
levels so:that remedial measures, if needed, can be effected. Specifically, elevation readi.ngs should
be obtained to an accuraey of at least t0.002 feeton a daily basis during tank f lling and perhaps
weekly thereafter until settlement has virtually ceased. Some adjustment in the observation
frequen�y may be warranted pending the resuIts of early stage; ob�ervations.
It is very important that these seitlement observations be referencecl to a relatively fixed
benchmark. A good candidate for a fixed benchmark would be the presence of any deep weIl
casing or something that may be firmly embedded or gronted into the underlying limestone

formation away from the tank structure area that would be very unlikeIy to sustain any movement
during the observation period. If no such benchmark is available, there would be merit in drilling
and instatling a casing into the underlying rock toserve as a fixed benchmark far future reference.
GROUND STORAGE TAN'K - We anticipate that the new tank would be CROM tank constructed
within the faotprint ofthe existing tank following its demofition. Since the existingtankhas been inplace for
many years, the increase in soil contact pressure is estimated at about 700 psf. Therefore, maximum totat
settlement on the order of 1.0 inch would be anticipated at the tank center. From previous experience, we
would anticipate that the predicted settl ements would be within the range that can be tolerated considering
CROM-type tank construction which is contemplated on this project.
It is also important to recognize the source ofthe potential settlements. About one-third ofthe
expected settlement is dueto compression ofprincipaIly sandy soils and, therefore, these settlements should
occur virtually caincident with stress appli cation during initial tank filling. The remainder of the settlements
resulting form compression ofthe clayey soils would be more time dependent. Nevertheless, we would
• expect that the maj ority of the total settlements would occur within a period of 30 to 60 days following tank
filling.

Even though the above notecl movements can probably be tolerated without structural distress, we
would eertainly suggest giving consideration to piping conr►ections to allow for some modest rotation. In
this regard, one may wish to consider incorporarion ofappropriate couplings that can allow for modest joint
rotation.
Site;preparation will require removal ofthe existing tank; foundations and piping, followed by
vibratory compaction of the subgrade soils and any fill which may beplaced to develop the foundation
grade. Recommendations for fill placement and compactian are presented in a subsequent section of this
report.
LIGHTLY LOADED 1VIAT FOUNDATIONS (Booster Pump Station and Baclr��ash HoldinE
Tunk - The mat foundations for the lightly loaded BoosterPump Station and Backwash Holding Tank
may also be supported on compacted subg�ade. For the slab supported structures, we wauld suggest
consideration of a ma�cimum peak allowable soil bearing pressure ofup to 1,S 00 pounds per square foot
and a subgrade modulus of 20 pounds per cubic inch for a mat foundation design. Settlements were
Driggers Engineering Services Incorporated
•
estimated an the order of 0.5 inch for the foundations based upon the presumed loads and average contact
pressures nofexceeding about 1,000 psf. Since the principal source of'the settlementwill be compression
of fine sands below the depth of the compacted backfill, m�st of the compression related settlernent is
expected to occur with the first application of the structurat dead loads. Post construction settlements are
anticipated to be less than half ofthe above value.
BUILDING ADDITION - With proper subgrade preparation as discussed subsequently, shallow
foundations forthe building additions may be designed based upon an allowable soil bearing pressure of
up to 2,500 pounds per square foot. Provided proper subgrade preparation is enacted, foundations
designed based upon this allowable:soil bearing pressure should experience maximum total settlements on
the order of 3/4 inch, with differential settlemeMts on the order of O.S inch. Since the principal:source of
the settlementis compression of shallow depth l�ose fine sands, most of the settlement should occw with
the first applicatifln of the structural dead and live loads. While these settIements are not considered
excessive, it would be prudent to consider the use of liberai steelxeinforcement in the f�undations and
within grout-filled masonu-ycells. Such stiffening ofthe structures should help minimi�e cosmeric cracking
due to minor settlement.
•
BEL4W GRADE WET WELL PUMP STATION �OPEN CUT) - It is contemplated thatthis below
grade structure will probably be constructed within either asloped excavation or a properly designed and
constructed sheeted excavation. It must be recognized that vibratory installation and extraction of sheeting
and associated disturbance can result in unexpected settlement. The contractor should, therefore, consider
ways and means of construction to minimize vibrations following setting the structures to line and grade.
The contractor should be mindful of any potential effects of his ways and meanson any adjacent existing
piping or facilities that are to remain functional or vyhich may have been previously constructed. The
' contractor should coordinate with the project civil design engineer and the County relative to identifying any
: critieal structures or piping that could impact his means of construction.
Whiile no boring was requested far this sh-ucture, resutts of the borings conducted on the site
suggest that the bottom of the stnicture at I S feet below grade may be within medium dense sands. In
g�neral, soils representing the SP to SP-SM and SM Unified Soil Classification excavated for construction
eould�tentialIy be stoekpiled and re-utilized as backfili followzngconstruction. However, these soils will
require carefia} moisture content confrol to permit replacement and compaction to project specification
requirernents. We recornmend adj usting moistiu-e content to with f2% of optimum moist�u-e as defined by
the Modified Proctflr moisture density relationship ofASTM D-1557. It is impartant to recognize that the
•

silty to clayey sands containing appreciable silt and clay or soils with organic finesmay be dif�icult to rapidly
adjustmoisture contents for efficient replacement and compaction. These types of soils are also very
weather sensitive since they must generaliy be mechanically aerated in order to reduce.moisture contents.
Regardless, alE bac�ll soils should be compacted in accordance with project specification requirements.
Whiie it may be advantageous to place compacted gra�el within the lowerportion af the backfill
around the structure, particularly in wet conditions, excessive gravel thicknesses should be avoided. If
employed, the gravel working platform should consist of a hard durable aggregate such as hard limestane
ar granite free of significant fines content that could result in a reduction in the drainage characteristics of
the blanket_ It is further suggested that the gravel working platform have a grading no coarser than an
FDOT#57. Settlement ofthe overlying backfill is likelywhere the soil fines eventuallymigrate into the
voids within the gravel. Accordingly, if an initial lift of gravel is'used, we recommend placing a�eotextile
between the gravel and backfill soils to help minimize soil migration.
Post-constniction stresses that are produced by buried stt-uctures are generally minimal due to the
fact that the contact pressure from the weight of the structure and contents is generally less than the
overburden soil pressure prior to construction. However, during intermediate stages of construction,
vertical stresses can occur during the dewatering and backfill placement that are not insignificant.
Nevertheless, we wouid anticipate that settlements would be Iess than 1 inch with pmper eonstruction and
with soils existing below the anticipated structure depths of about l 0 to 15 feet. The contractor must
exercise appropriate ways and means to maintain pIumbness afthe structures during all backfill construcUon
activities and to rnonitor elevations on the top ofthe structure during and after backfill to confirm that
settlement is complete prior to making finaI piping connections. In general, we would anticipate that
settlements would occur very rapidly follawing placementof the backfill and completion of constnzction.
Appropriate dewatering is a critical aspectof construction of thewet weIl so as to ailow proper
preparation c�f the subgrade and appropriatebackfilling and compaction of surrounding soils. Improper
implementation of dewatering can result in de-stabilization of the subgrade soils whieh can cause enhanced
total and differential settlement, lt is recommended that the dewatering system consist of a properly
designed weIlpoint systerri: Due to the sUatified nature of the soils and the required depth of dewatering,
we would sCronglyrecommend that the contractor retain the services of a qualified dewatering consultant
to appropriately desig� and monitor performance of the dewatering systern. As a minirnum, the wellpoints
should be fully slotted and encased in properly designed filter media for m�re effective dewatering. We
recommend installing at least one { I) piez_ometer observation well to perm'rt checking the effectiveness of
the dewateringsystem priorto initiation �fexcavation activities. The dewatering system should be installed

.
so as to maintain groundwater ]evels to no less than 1.S:feet below the planned bottom of structure
elevation to accommodate the recommended undercutting io place 18 inches of gravel at the excavation
battom, as discussed above.
ALTERNA:TE BELOW GRAI)E CONSTRUCTION METHODS - Alternative concepts for design
and const�uction of the wet well would involve utilizang a wet caissor� method or drilled shaft construction
technology to consixuct the shaft in awethole envirorunent. Thewet caisson methodessentially involves
a subaqueous excavati on from within the interior of the precast wetwell that affords the opportunity for
sinking the wet well sequentially as the excavation progresses to the required elevation. This concept
requires the incorporation of a tremie seal or tremie plug at the bottom of the excavation that not only
provides pump station support but also affords needed uplift resistance and water-proofing during the
subsequent dewatering of the interior of the wet well, With the drilled shaft rnethodology, the drilled shaft
contractar could install the required thickness of a steel casing to the required depth utilizing drilled caisson
: drilling technology. Such technology would includeutilization of a mineral slurry drilJing mud to advance
the casing to the required penetration without the need for dewatering. U�on advancing the casing to the
requixed penetration, the drilled shaft contractor would further advance the borehole within the interior to
the depth required to constnict a tremie seal for uplift resistance and to accommodate dewaterin� of the •
interior af the casing for pump station cor�struction.
In summary, there are various techniques whi ch could be considered`for wetwell construction and
there may be others depending upon the ingenuity of tl�e contractoz. Regardless, depending upon
construction phasing, special considerationmust be given to minunization of groundwaterlowering and
vibrarions below any adj acent facilities supported at grade that could be detrimental to the existing facilities.
lf such methods are considered, we would be pleased to review the contractor's excavation and
construction plan. ..
CONV�NTIONALSLAB=ON-GIZADECONSTRUCTION - UJithpropersubgadepreparation,
conventional floor slabs may be supported on the compacted backfill soils. Subgradepreparation must
include a program of vibratory compaction to develop a uniform density of no:less than 95%0 ofthe
Modified Proctor maximum dry density per ASTM D-1557. Care must be exercised to maintain a smooth,
compacted surface prior to concrete placement. Une�en surfaces orruts can prodtace abrupt clianges in
the c�ncrete thickness that induces stress concentrations within the concrete resulting in cracking. Also,
all utility trenches should be properly backfilled and compacted to provide consistent bearing

� RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SUBGRADE PREPARATION
AND FOUNDATION DESIGN
SUBGRADE PREPARATION
Each structure area and for a distance of at least 10 feet beyond the outside perimeter should be
stripped of all surface vegetation, pavements, near-surface organic soils, root concentrations,
existing structures and other objectionable material. The exact depth of undercutting should be
determined by a representative of the soil engineer in the field. Groundwater levels should be
controlled to at least 2 feet below the maximum excavation depth.
The stripped, undercut surface should be uniformly compacted using a vibratory roller having a
maximum dnun widthof 36 inches. Subgrade compaction should consist of aminimum often (l0}
overlapping coverages in a cris-cross pattem throughout the entire structure area, plus the minunum
5 foot margin. Excessive vibration should be avoided in proximity ta existing structures.
3. A qualified engineer ortechnician shotild bepresent during initial compaction operations to check
proper compactorperformance and compaction procedures. The compaction should be performed
• at a speed equivalent ta that of a slow walking pace.
Density tests should be used to control subgrade compaction. At least one (1) density test should
be performed for every 2,500 ft.2 at the s�arface of compaction and at a depth of 12 inches. No
fewer than two (2) compaction tests shouId be conducted at each level.
The excavated footing areas shall be compacted with a hand-guided vibratory compactor having
a minimum plate widtti of 24 inches or the footing width whichever is less. No fewer than ten (] 0)
coverages shall be effected. Compaction tests shall be conducted to check that a density ofnot
less than 95% of the Modified Proctor maximum dry density has been maintained.
F1LL OR BACKI�ILL PLACEMENT
Fill or backfill required to develop proposed grade should be inorganic, clean to slightly silty fine
sand, free ofunsuitable debris_ Soils with a Unified Scil Classification of SP to SP-SM would
certainly be considered suitable_
•
•
2. The fill should be placed in lift thicknesses not exceeding 9 inches with each lift campacted to a
density of no less than 95% ofthe Modified Proctor maximum dry density. Moist�are content within
the fill soil shouid be contralled to within f2%ofoptimum as established inASTM D-1 557 to help
ensure development of both density and stabiIity during compaction operations. No fewer than six
(6) to eight (8) coverages should be made on each lift using the above specified heavy, vibratory
roller.
3. Density tests should also be used to control fill placement. At least one (1} density test should be
performed for each 2,500 ft.2 per fill lift. No fewer than two (2) tests should be performed per lift.
4. Careful inspection and compaction tests should also be performed to confurn required uniformity
of compaction prior to slab-on-grade construction.
FOUNDATION DESIGN
1. Shallow foundations for buiidings may be designed based upon dead plus live plus wind load
requirements. An allowable soil bearing pressure of2,504 pounds per square foot is suggested •
in sizing of foundations.
2_ We recommend a footing embedment ofno less than 16 inches below finished grade, but excessive
embedment shouId be avoided to take advantage of the surfcial compaction_
3. Slab-on-grade construction may be utilized. To maintain slab support, excavation for utilities and
foundations should be backfilled and compacted in lifts with a sma11 compactor. Before backfill
is placed, all water and loose debris should be removed from the excavations.
4. A bearing wall footing width ofno less than 16 inches and calumn width of no less than 3 feet is
aiso recommended.

METHOD OF TESTING
Driggers Engineering 5ervices lncorporated
� A
ST NDARD PENETR.ATION TEST
AND
SOIL CLASSIFICATION
STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (ASTM D-15861
In the Standard Penetration Test borings, a rotary drilling rig is used to advance the borehole to the desired test depth.
A viscous drilling fluid is circulated throvgh the drill rods and bit to stabiIize the borehole and to assist in removal of
soil and rock cuttings up and out of the borehole.
IJpon reaching the desired test depth, the 2 inch O.D. split-barrel sampler or "split-spoon", as it is sometimes calIed,
is attached to an N-size drill rod and lowered to the bottom of the borehole. A l40 pound hammer, attached to the
drill sh-ing at the ground surface, is then used to drive the sampler into the formation. The hammer is successive}y
raised and dropped for a distance of 30 inches using a rope and "cathead" assembly. 'The number of blows is recorded
for each 6 inch interval of penetration or until virtual ref»sa1 is achieved. In the above manner, the samples are ideally
advanced a total of 18 inches. The sum of the blows required to effect the finat 12 inches of penetration is called the
blowcount, penetration resistance or "N" value of the particular material at the sample depth.
. After penetration, the rods and sampler are retracted to the ground surface where the core sample is removed, sea]ed
in a glass jar and transported to the laboratory for veri�cation of field classification and storage.
SOIL SYMBOLS AND CLASSIFICATION
Soil and rock samples secured in the field sampling operation were visually cIassified as to texture, cotor and
consistency. The Unified Soil Ciassification was assigned to each soil stratum per ASTM D-2487. Soi] ctassifications
are presented descriptively and symbolicaliy for ease of interpretation. The stratum identification lines represent the
approximate boundary between soil types. In many cases, this transition may be gradual.
Consistency of the soi} as to relative density or undrained sheaz strength, unless otherwise noted, is based upon
Standard Penetration resistance values of "N" values and industry-accepted standards. "N" values, or blowcounts,
are presented in both tabular and gXaphical form on each respective boring log at each sample interval. The graphicai
plot of blowcount versus depth is for illustration purposes only and does not warrant continuity in soi3 consistency
or linear variation between sample intervals.
7'he borings represent subsurface conditions at respective boring tocations and sampie intervals only. Variations in
subsurface conditions may o�cur between boring locations. Groundwaterdepshs shown represent Nrater depths at the
dates and time shown only. The absence of water table information dces not necessarily imply that groundwater was
notencountered.

RE: Report of the Geotechnical Investigation
Pond Expansion Borings
Clearwater Reverse Osmosis Plant #1
Clearwater, Florida
Our File: DES 116718
�
Dear Nick: �
uant t •
Purs o your authorizat�on, DRIGGERS ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC. has
completed the geotechnical investigation at the requested locations for the planned pond expansion
at the stabjeet site. Presented herein are the resulis of our field studies together with a discussion of
subsurface soil and groundwater conditions encountered.
PROJECT INFORMATION
We understand that it is planned to expand the storrnwater pond along the west side of the
site. The pond will have a bottom elevation at E1.+66.0 ft, which is about 2 to 3 feet beneath present
grade. The pond will also include an underdrain.
GEOTEC13NlCAL INVESTIGATION PROGRAM
SOIL BORINGS - Two (2} borings (PB-1 and PB-2) were requested and advan'ced ta the req�ested
depths of l Q feet beneath present grade. The borings were positioned in the field by our
geotechnician utiiizing the plan provided and with reference to existing site features. Locations of
the borings are illustrated on the attached Piate I.

The borings were manually advanced with hand auger equipment. Logs of the test borings
are presented in the report attachments. Ground surface elevations on the logs were estimated from
topographic inforrnation on the site plan provided to us. The logs contain visual soil descriptians,
estimated Unified and AASHTO Soil Classifications corresponding to each sample interval, and the
measured groundwater levels in the borings.
GENERALIZED SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
SOIL CONDITIONS - The test borings have identified an upper unit of fine sands with some shell
and gravel which represents fill placed to develop current grades. The fill and underlying native
soils which are also fine sands, contain some ta minimal silt, clay and organic fines content. These
soils generally comprise the SP to SP-SM Unified and AASHTO A-3 Soil Classifications. These
sandy soils were penetrated to the boring cornpletion depths at l0 feet below grade.
GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS - Gr�undwater was measured at depths of 7.2 and 6.3 feet
below grade at boring locations PB-1 and PB-2, respectively. The borings were conducted in rnid
April, during the typical dry time of the year. Based upon the measured groundwater levels, the soil
profile and the previous site filling, we would estimate that normal wet season groundwater levels
may generally occur at 4 and 3 feet below present grades at boring locations PB-1 and PB-2,
respectively, or at approximate elevation E1.+65.0 ft.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UNDERDRAIN CONSTRUCTION
For the pond underdrains, we would suggest a detail similar to an F'DOT Type V underdrain,
with the exception that we recommend a woven filter fabric. A woven fabric is Iess likely to clog
as compared witl� a non-woven fabric. The pipe within the coarse aggregate should not be fabric
wrapped. The filter sand shauld have a Uniformity Coefficient (D�/D,o) of l.5 or greater; an
Effective Size (D,o} between 0.2 and 0.55 mm.; and a minimum permeability of 5.42 ft. per hour.

INTRODUCTION
improvernents to the Reverse Qsmosis Plant in Clearwater, Florida will include the addition
of two (2} 12t3 foot diameter 3 mi�iion gallon storage tanks. Tlie first phase will consist of the
constn��tion of a r�ew tank south af an existing storage tank, U3timately, tile existing storage tank
will be demalis�ed following completion and imple�n�ntation of che I'hase I storage tank. Following
der�olition, a new 3 million gailt�n storage t�nk will constructed within the limits of the previous
tank.
Included herein are the resu}ts af field anc� laboratory studies completed for the Phase I tank
construetion together with geotechnieal recomme�dations. A�so inciuded are the results of a single
#est baring canducted 1�ear the western perzmeter of Ehe proposed Phase II tank.
GEi?TE�HNICAL 11VVESTIGATION PROGRAl�1
Our geotechnical investigation program consisted of a series of Standard Fenetration Test
. bari�gs, Flat Dilatometer Saunding� and laboratory elassifieation and eompressibility tests.
•
STANDARD PENE'T'RA'FION TEST BORIN� - Flate I of the attachments identifies the
respective �ositioning af a series of S#andard Penetration Test (SPT) borings thaE were performed
art�ur�d the perinr�eter and interior of the Phase I tank constructian ar►t1 near the w�sterly perimeter
of the �'hase �� tank canstruction. The SPT borings were perforn�ed in general aecordance with
ASfiM I7»I5$�. Logs of the test borings are presented in the report attachrnents reflecting visual
tQgether wi�h estimated Unifed Soil CIassification. A.lso included �n each log are tabulated and
gaphical�y plotted Standard Penetration resistan�+� valt�es corresponding to eaCh sample interval.
A brief d�scription of ihe Standard Penetration method af sampli�g used in our s�zdy is included in
the report attachments=
FLA'T DTLATOMETER SOUNDINGS - Zsolated negligihle Standard Penetration resistance
zt�nes were encountered i� severai of ouF SPT borings. In order to obtain mor� definitive
information� relative to #he char.acteristics ofthis zone and patential compressibility, Flat Dilatometer
Sour�dings were perfarmed. The F1at Ditatom�ter Sou»dings were pe€fornaed in accordance with
A.S'�'M D-6�35. The resulis of the �1at Dilatameter Soundings incl�ding the Dilatometer modulus
values are plotted adjacent to the respective SPT buring and included in tf�e r�port attachments.

LABORATORY TESTING - Laboratory characterizatian tests were perforrr�ed an representative
soil sampies. Our laboratory tests included grainsize analyses, Atterberg limits ar�d organic content
tests as deemed appropriate. T'h� results of these classification tests are appended.
One-dimensianal consolidatron tests were also performed on Sheiby t�be samples secured
during the course of the �eld investigatinn. The resu�ts of'tl�e consalidation tests are included in the
attachments in the form of a grapt� of void raiio versus t�te effective vertica� presstu`e. Time versus
deflection pic�ts are aiso included correspond�ng to each consolidatian test iQad inerement �nd
decrement.
G�NERALIZED SURI+AC� CONDITIONS
Plate II of the r�port ilfusirations presen#s the fest borings �n p�ofile. As seen`from Plate ��,
the subsurf�ce sail prv�ls con�ists of an upper unit of predonninaritly �ine sanc�s witb l:oealiz�d tr�c�s
ar��aunts of o�ganic fines that exhibiied a t�zckness typically in the range of 2$ ta 33 feet below
present grade. You wili note that there is evidence of some historic filT a� suggested by #he presen�e
of a upper veneer c�f fine sands with variable silt, shell and limestone fragment content. Howev�r, •
tl�e fill at the locations tested, appears ta be no more than 2 to 3 feet thicl�. Standard Pe�letration
resistance vatues indicate that the sandy soils vvithin the upper 10 to 15 �eet �re .generally relatively
loose in consistency followed by transition inta medium dense saiids below,
Below 28'to 33 feet, penetration resistance values varied significantly indicat�ng the pre�ence
of very �oose tt� �edium de�se eIayey sands. Indeed, in some lacaiions, negligible pez�etr�tion
resistance was recorded as a sarnpler penetrated under the weigh� of the harnmer assen�ably alone.
Even though idealized tesi bc�rings encountered negligible penetration resistance zones at
depth, in oux opinion these features do not relate to the presence af cavity zones or ar� inc�eased
potential for sinikhole devel4pment. The factors considered iri r�aching this conclusion are the
follo�ving:
i. Standard Penetration samptes as vvelt as Shelby tube samples were securec� w�tt�in
this unit that were nat suggestive af raveling soils and ceriainly not voids.
2. �Iat Dilatarneter Sc�undings did not reflect the presence of voids but ratl�er soils with
modezate cflr�npressibility.

3. There were no iosses of cireulation of drilling fluid with any of the test borings
wi#hin this or any azher zone.
4. This weak zarte occurs above-a very thick sequence af very strong cohesive soiJs af
the 11�ioeene Hawthorn formation. There is no indication of any underlying st�atum
into which soils cot►ld be raveling res�lting in sinkho3e activity. Indeed, this thick
sequence of strong cahesive soils minimizes any potential for sinkhole ac#iviry.
5. Sail con:ditiQns it�media#ely above and be1Qw this weak zone are very strong with
�a indicafian af any syste�natic weakening associated witl� sirilchole aetivity.
6. The piezornetric s�r�'ace w�ithin ihe underlyin� ]imestone forn�ation would be
expected tc� occur in the range of abou# 5 to 10 feet above mean sea level or sonle 60
to 65 feet below the iand surfac�, The su�ciai water table, however, was
consistently r�corded at reiativeiy s�a�Ivw d�pths generaIly within fih� upper 3 to S
feet. T`�us, clearly ihere is a s�gnifiGant do�vnward hydra�alic ,�radient. The faet that
• t�ere is a consistently sustained shallow groundwaYer #able suggests that �}�e
underi�ing elays af #he H�r�vthom �'orm�tian are providir�g effective confinernent
thereby reducing sinkhole pc�t�ntial.
•
7. Tne site is loca#ed in a por#ian of Pine�las County t�at has histori�ally experienced
negiigible sini�hole activiry.
It is �e writer's theory that these f�atures are �etated to in�lled erosion gullies tlaa� prababty
farmed atop the Har�vtharn farrnation wl�ch is geologically re�agnized as an erasional surface.
W�ere erosian gullies are subsequentiy in�llad witi� sediments during periads of lxigher sea �eve�
stands, �hesa sediments may not be weil consolidated due ta the aff�cts of arehing especially if tl�te
ero5ional gullies are re�atively natraw. 'T'his would account for the fact that the sediments withi�
these er�sia� gullies may be weakerthan overiying an� underlying sediments and are likelyto oceur
with varyxr�g depths. If the writer's theo�y is correct, tlaere is a good probability tiaat new stresses
from the tank construction will also ter�d io arcl� over these narraw features a�d may actually
produce relati�vely tni�or settlernent.

Generally below 40 to 45 feet, penetratian resistance values increased sharply marking the
transition into the Mioeene Hawthorn formation. The Hawthorr► forma#ion is generally comprised
of rnedium dense to dense clayey santls interbedded with firm to hard and variable cemented clays
with differing silt and sana content. These relatively strong soils of the Hawtharn farmation
continued to tt�e tezmination depth of the borings which extended as deep as 75 feet below exis�ng
grade.
GroundwaYer was recorded during the course of our reeent geQtechnical investigation in the
depth range of about 2.8 to 3.4 feet belflw the existin� ground surface. You will nate that these
obs��'vations were ohtained during a period of extensive rainfall wk�ich was �bnorrraally high
compared to average surnrr;er rainfall conditions. The groundwater level r�corded at PB-8 in May
of 2411 was approxirr�ately 2.5 feet lower. We wauld jud�e tt�at the r�cer�t groundwater
observations are probabiy hig�er than the normal wet seasc�n groundwater table. Of course, wEll
established surface drainage sucb as exists at the plant site wiIi tend to mini�rtize norrnal seas€�nai
fluctuations.

GEOTECHNICAL EVALUATION Al'+1D RECUMMENDATIONS •
PRt3POSED CONSTRUCTION AND LUADING �ONDITIONS - The propased Phase I and
Phase i.T tanks vvill have a nozninal diameter of 120 feet and wi11 storage approxirnately 3 rni��ian
ga?lons each. Accordingly, on� would anticip�te � rnax�mum water depth of abou# 35.5 feet.
Including the �hickness of a nominal 6 inch slah, one would anticipate an a�erage �ontact pressure
ofat�out 2300 psf: It is our untlerstanding th�t this contact pressure will exceed that o�'t�e existing
tank in the Phase �I constntction by some 500 ta 7U4 psf.
It is contem�lated that the tanks will be prestressed concrete af tlae +C�om-type �hich wiii
incorpoxate a can�rete diaphragr�a floar �nd pe�imeter continuous footing.
Aithough we have not been provided with details of proposed grades, w�e wouid anticipate
only rn�nor grade changes to accommodate the proposed �nished #Ioor elevation for botb ihe �'taase

compression of surficial loose sands below the depth-of-ef€ect of near-surface compaction
as well as through the compression of intern�ediate relatively weak clayey sands of nearly
below 3U feet. The magnitizde of expected settlement is the fianctinn of the ti�ickness and
Iateral extent of the cflmpr�ssible zanes. The upper sandy soi�s generaliy appear to be more
uniform and Iateraljy conti�iuous and wiil be expeeted to produce settlements of perhaps 0.8
inch, or }ess, on the tank interior. These settlemenis will occur virtuaily instantaneousiy with
the applicatian of stress.
The deeper ciayey sand ur�it is variable in both th�ckn�ss ar�d �ompressib�lity. Where the
co�rapressible zones may be relatively narrow, t�e v�rtical stress�s from the tank and conten�s
will tend to arckz aver th� feature and prod�tce mir�imal settlement as previously discussed.
�owever, where these zanes are lateraliy continuous, the iull vertical increase stresses will
be eapable of produGing setttemsnt. Based on the results of our investigation, we
• canservatively estimate that maximum settlement of the tank interior may approach 2.G �o
4,G inches due to eonsolidation o#' these deeper weak clayey sands. Adding tl�is to the
settiement of tlie upper Iaose sandy zones could result in ma�timum interior settlements in
the range of 3_4 ta 5.4 inches, Settlernents at the tank perimeter would generally be expected
tv be about SQ% Qf ihat of the interiar or perhaps range fxom 1.7 to 2.7 inches. From
�revious experience, we wo�ttd anticipate that these predicied tatal and differential
setttements are within the range that can be toierated considering the Cram-type tank
canstructian contemplated on this prr�ject. Xt is also important ta recognize that bott� �e
upper finc sands and �ieeper clayey sands will tend to settie very rapidiy fallowing stress
ap�lic�tion, Thus, we would expect tl�at the majority of ihe tota� settlements wauld accur
within a period of 30 to 60 days foltowing tan�c filling.
Even t�ough tYse above noted maverz�ents are considered relatively madest and can probably
be tolerated without structural distress, we would certainly suggest giving consideration to
infl�ent and e£fluent piping cannectaons ta allaw far nnodes# rotation.
Whe�e the abov� rnagnitudes vf expected settlements are considered intvlerabte,
co�sideration could be giv�n to deep ground impravement such as Vibro-replacement stone
col�rnns. V ibro-replacemeint sto.r�e �olurnns are generally installed u� a�iesign-c�ns�zuct

specified by the tank design cansultant. Pile foundations could also be considered but would
probahly not be economical compared to ground irnprovement.
Subgrade and Fiil Prepara#ian - Presuming that the above noted magnitudes of predic#ed
settlement are considered within an acceptable range, subgrade preparation should consist
af undercutting the entire tank area plus a margin of not less ihan 5 feet to a min�mum depth
3 feet or to expose ti3e native subgrade sails, whichever occurs at tl�e greates# depth. Careful
inspection should be planned at that time to ensure remaval of any unsuitabie fill or
underlying �iatezials. The subgrade should be unifornnly cumpacted utilizing a l�eavy
vibratary roller having a minirrauln static drum weight af 5 tans. Compaction should consist
of no less than ten ( l0) complete covera�es in a criss-cross �attern throughaut the entire tank
area plus a margin of S feet. Cqmpaction shouid continue so as to dev�Iop a unifarrn density
of not less than 95%0 of the Modified Proct4r maximum dry density p�r ASTM U-1�57.
Compaction �ests s�outd ba conducted Qn a frequency afnat less tiaan one {1) test for each
2,50€� SF and far each 50 foot �f foundation perimeter.
The foundation p�rimeter for t�ie tank structure shoutd be densified at tl�e bottom of fooiing
clevation ar 3 foot undercut depth, whichever occurs a# #he lowest elevation. •

Eact� lift shauld not exeeed 12 i�aci�es with each lift unifozmly compacted to no less than the
35°fe Iv�odi#ied Proctor nEaaximum dry density.
Yt►�x attention is directed to the posszbility that sarne contr4l and manage�zent of
�roundwater may be required depending upon antecedent rainfall levels at the tirne of
const�vction. Graundwater ievels should be maintained no less thar� 12 inehes belflw �h�

and throughout all fill lifts to within �2% vf the optimum moisture as established by ti�e
Modified Pr�etor moisture density relationship of ASTM D-1557.
It is irnport�nt fhat a re�resentative of the project geotechnicai engineer be preseant during

PERFORMANCE OBSERVATIONS - The predietio� of toial and differential se#tlement is
certainly not an exact science and is based upon both geotechnical analyses and judgment utilizing
available geotechnical information. Accordingly, we would strongty recomrnend establishing
elevation points thraughout the tank structure to permit observations af settlements during initial
tank filling and following completion of flling for as long as practical, but not less than tl?�irty (3Q)
days following complete filling an effart to deteet areas where settlements may be projeeted to
ex�eed predieted levels so that remedial measures, if needed, can b� effected. At the approp�iate
time, we wvuld be desirous of working wiEh CDM Smiit� and the contractor ta select lacations for
settlement xnonitaring.
Specific elevatic�n readings should be obtained to an accuracy of at least �0.002 feet on a
daily basis during fiiIing and at lease twice w�ekly tl�ereafter uantil settlements have virtually ceas�d.
Some adjustm�nt in observation frequency ma� be warranted pending the xesults of ear�y stage
observationS.
It is very important that ttl�ese settlemen� observations be r�ferenced ta a relative�y fixed
• benchmazk. A goad candidate for a fixed benchmark wauld be the presence of any deep wei] caszng
or something that rnay be firmly embedded ar grouted inta the underlyin� limestone forrna#ipn well
away frorn the tar�k .structure that would be very unlikely to sustain any movement d�ing tne
observation period. Ifno such benciarnark is avaitable, there would b� merit in drilling and installing
a casing into the underlying limestone formatifln to serve as a fixed bencll�mark �or future reference.

PHASF lI G�OTECH.N�CAL INVESTIGAfiION -�ollowing cornpletion and irnplernentation
of the Phase I ground storage tank, the existing ta�k structure to tl�� narth will be demolished to
prepare far #he cansfruction of a seeon� 3MG ground storage tank with��n the timits af the
demolished tank. �urther geotechnieai investigation will be waarranted a# that #ime to supple�nent
tl�e single Standard Penetration Test haring wa� performed near western perirneter. Specifical�y,
ihree (3) additional SPT borings ate recornrnenc�ed tvgether wiCh Flat Ditatometer Soundings as
d.eemed appropriate. Naturai�y, it witl be impprtant to e�gedite the perform�nc� of this work so as:
t� elimanaie any ct�nstruction delays.
Judging frorn available geotechnical inforrnatian as w�il as the past perfr�rmance of the
existing tank struucture and the proposed xnodest stress ai�creases, we would antacipate that 4ur
geotechn�c�t recommendations wil� be similar ta ihat dxsct�ssed h�rein for the Phase ���nnlc
construction. Fackars eons�dered in reachir�g this c��eiusio� i�clude th� foli�win�:

I. Proposed tank structure will be totally wi#hin the linvts of the previous ground
storage tank which we understand has performed satisfactorily for many years.
2. The stress increases associated with the taller proposed tank structure are anly aho�t
25% higher than that c�f the origiz�al tank structure ancl, tberefore, additional
settiements should be proportionately less t]�� that which would be associated with
the tarilc cc��struction on a pareel that �as not been previously pre-loaded.
It should be nated that the supplemental test borings can be initiated as soor� as access is
available to the interior pf the existix�g taaak area. If necessary, t�e existing concreie slab ean be
cored to permit advancement of the tesi boring;s. In other words, one wouId not necessarily need
ta wait tu�til ali of the �lemolition activities are complete in order to i�itiate the supplernental
geotecl�nical studies.

STANDARD PENETRATION TEST
WITH AUTOMATIC HAMMER
AND SOIL CLASSIFICATIQN
STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (ASTM D-1586�
In the Standard Penetration Test borings, a rotary driiling rig is used to advance the borehote to the desired test depth.
A viscous dri2ling fluid is circuIaked khrough the drill rods and bit ta stabilize tt�e barehole and to assisi in rernoval of
soil and rock cuttings vp and out of tbe borehole.
Upon reaching the desired test depth, khe 2 inch O.D. split-barrel sampler or "split-spoon", as it is sometimes called, is
attached ta an N-size drill rod and lowered to the bottom of the borehole. A 144 pound automatic hammer, attached
to the driJl string at the ground surface, is fhen used io drive the sampler into the formation. The hammer is successively
raised and dropped for a distance of 30 inches using an automated lifting mechanism. The number of blows is reeorded
for each 6 inch interval ofpen�tration or until virtual refusal is achieved. In the above manner, the samples are idea3ly
advanced a total of 18 inches. The sum of the blows required to effect the final 12 inches of penetration is called the
blowcount, penetration resistance or "N" value of ihe particular material at the sample depth.
• After penetration, the rads and samplerare retracted to the ground surface where the core sampie is remaued, sealed
in a glass jar and transported to the taboratory for verification of fieid cIassiFcation and siorage:
SOIL SYMBOLS AND CLASSIFICATION
Soil and rack samptes secured in the field sampling operation were visuatly cIassified as to texture, color and
eonsistency. The Unified Soil Classification was assigned to each soilstratum perASTM D-24$7. Soil classifications
are presented descriptively and symbolicaIly for ease of interpretation. The straturn ideniification lines represent the
approximate boundary between soil types. In many cases, this transition may be gradual.
Consisfency of the soil as to relative density or undrained shear strength, unless otherwise noted, is based upon Standard
Penetration resistance values of"N" values and indus6y-accepted standards. "N" values, orbluwcounts, are presented
in both tabular and graptaical form on each respective boring log at each sample interval. The graphical plot of
bTowcount versns depth is forillustration purposes only and does not warrant continuity in saii cvnsistency or linear
variation between sampie intervais.
The borings represent subsurface conditions at respective boring locations and sample intervals anly. Variations in
subsurface conditions rnay occur between boring locations. Groundwater depths s}:own represent water depths at t%e
dates and time shawn only. The absence of water Table information does not necessarily imply that groundwater was
not encountered.

PERMIT NO. 44021876.004
EXPIRATION DATE: October 05, 2017
PERMIT ISSUE DATE: October 05, 2012
This permit is issued under the provisions of Chapter 373, Florida Statutes, (F.S.), and the Rules contained in
Chapters 40D-4 and 40D-40, Florida Administrative Code, (F.A.C.). The permit authorizes the Permittee to
proceed with the construction of a surface water management system in accordance with the information
outlined herein and shown by the application, approved drawings, plans, specifications, and other documents,
attached hereto and kept on file at the Southwest Florida Water Management District (District). Unless
otherwise stated by permit specific condition, permit issuance constitutes certification of compliance with state
water quality standards under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1341. All construction, operation

PROJECT NAME: City of Clearwater Reverse Osmosis Plant No. 1 Expansion
GRANTED TO: City of Clearwater
Attn: Robert Fahey, P.E.
100 South Myrtle Avenue, Room 220
Clearwater, FL 33756
OTHER PERMITTEES: N/A
ABSTRACT: This permit authorization is for the construction of a new surface water management system
serving a municipal water treatment plant. The proposed project is for the removal of an existing water storage
tank, the construction of two new storage tanks, the construction of an access road along with other associated
infrastructure and the enlargement of an existing unpermitted pond. The pond will provide water quality treatment
by effluent filtration and attenuate a post development 25-year 24-hour storm event at the 25-year 24-hour pre
development peak runoff rate. The proposed project area is located within the watershed of an impaired
waterbody that is verified as impaired for nutrients and mercury (Stevenson Creek (Tidal Segment) — WBID
#1567); therefore, water quality certification is waived as a condition of this permit. The Engineer-of-Record has
demonstrated through calculations that the DistricYs presumptive criteria will govern for this project. No wetlands
or other surface waters exist within the project area. The proposed project is located on the south side of
Palmetto Street between Casler Avenue and North Saturn Avenue in the city of Clearwater, Florida.
