Allowable unsupported lengths for depth of watermain between 1.5 m and 2.5 m may be interpolated from the tables. For depth of watermain greater than 2.5 m, the Contract Administrator will specify the method to be used.

In the foregoing, if a joint is within the unsupported watermain length, the allowable length is to be reduced by 50%.

Where a cast iron main running parallel to a trench is undermined it shall be replaced with new ductile iron pipe in its original location or in a new location as approved by the Contract Administrator.

Where the main outlined above is ductile iron or PVC it must be temporarily supported during excavation and the trench may be backfilled with well compacted granular fill.

In hard stable soil tunnelling under watermains is acceptable. The minimum length of tunnel is to be 1.5 m, the vertical separation from tunnel roof to watermain is to be a minimum of 1.0 m and the void in the tunnel is to be filled with I 9 rnm crushed stone. Tunnelling in soft, loose and unstable soil is not acceptable.

Large cast iron, ductile iron, asbestos cement and concrete mains may require special supports, concrete support beams or trench sheeting or shoring. These cases will be treated individually as approved by the Contract Ad mi n is t ra tor.

In all cases where pipe is laid on backfilled material, the backfill shall consist of granular material compacted in 150 mm layers to 95 percent Standard Proctor Density.

When discharging to the open environment or storm sewer, it will be the responsibility of the contractor to ensure the effectiveness of the dechlorination process. The contractor shall provide a written plan for the dechlorination process which is to be submitted to the contract administrator and approved. As a minimum this shall include:

i> The chemical proposed to be used to dechlorinate, the proposed equipment and methodology for dechlorination, and the proposed point of discharge and the receiving body (Le. storm sewer, open environment, ditch, drain, watercourse).

The process proposed and how it will ensure adequate dosing and mixing of the dechlorination compound prior to d ischa rg e.

iii)

iv)

Ensuring that there are appropriate measures in place to avoid erosion at the point of discharge and downstream.

There is a location for monitoring (and a method of monitoring) to ensure no chlorine residual remains downstream of the point of discharge.

I Chemical I Hydrogen Peroxide discharging to an environmentally sensitive watercourse. An overdose will only add more

1 Sodium Sulphite 1 Excess will lower dissolved oxygen.

Sodium Pyrosulphite (sodium Metabisulphite) 1

I Excess will lower dissolved oxygen.

*the above information was taken from the former MOE Bulletin 65-W-4 "Chlorination of Potable Water Supplies".

Adequate mixing and dosage of the chemical with chlorinated water must be ensured.


Actual Measurement

Watermains (includes bends, 'T's and fittings)

Measurement will be in metres horizontally over the centreline of the pipe from the point of connection to a chamber, water treatment plant, or existing watermain to a point vertically above the end of the new watermain.
