3.1 APPLICATION

A. General Dewatering

1. Provide adequate pumping and drainage facilities to maintain the excavated area

sufficiently dry from groundwater and/or surface runoff so as not to adversely affect

construction procedures nor cause excessive disturbance of underlying natural ground.

2. Dewatering includes the lowering of the water table, the lowering of hydrostatic pressure,

preventing surface water from entering the excavation during construction and disposing of

discharge water. Common dewatering methods include sump pumping, deep wells, well

points, or combinations thereof.

3. Water from the trenches and excavations shall be disposed of in such a manner as to avoid

public nuisance, injury to public health or the environment, damage to public or private

property, or the work completed or in progress. Siltation barriers shall be provided as

required by the Contract Documents.

and any damage resulting from the failure of CONTRACTOR to maintain all the areas of

work in a suitably dry condition, shall be repaired by CONTRACTOR at no additional

expense to OWNER.

5. Care shall be exercised to see that water does not collect in the bell or collar holes to

sufficient depth to wet the bell or collar of pipes waiting to be jointed.

6. Precautions shall be taken to protect new work from flooding during storms or from other

causes. CONTRACTOR shall control the grading in the areas surrounding all excavations

so that the surface of the ground will be properly sloped to prevent water from running into

the excavated area. Where required, temporary ditches shall be provided for drainage.

Upon completion of the work, all areas shall be restored by CONTRACTOR in a

satisfactory manner approved by ENGINEER.

7. All pipelines or structures not stable against uplift during construction or prior to

completion shall be thoroughly braced or otherwise protected.

B. Pipeline Trench Dewatering

1. Furnish, install, operate and maintain dewatering in accordance with approved dewatering

plan. Locate dewatering system components so that they do not interfere with construction

under this or other contracts.

2. Do not excavate until the dewatering and system is operational and the excavation may

proceed without disturbance to the final subgrade.

3. Unless otherwise specified, continue dewatering and uninterrupted until the structures,

pipes, and appurtenances to be built there have been completed such that they will not be

floated or otherwise damaged by an increase in groundwater elevation.

12

13

4. If open pumping from sumps and ditches results in boils, loss of fines, or softening of the

ground, submit a modified dewatering plan to ENGINEER within 24 hours. Implement the

approved modified plan and repair any damage incurred at no additional cost to OWNER.

5. Where subgrade materials are unable to meet the subgrade density requirements due to

improper dewatering techniques, remove and replace the materials in accordance with

Section 02320 at no additional cost to OWNER.

6. Lay temporary underdrains if required in trenches beneath bottom level of excavation.

Provide trenches to accommodate underdrain and surrounding material. Lay underdrains

below bottom of normal excavation with open joints wrapped in non-woven filter fabric,

and entirely surrounded by ¾ crushed stone to prevent the admission of fines into the

underdrains. Provide at least 3 inches between bottom of pipe or structure and highest

point of underdrain pipe. Fill the space between the underdrain and pipe or structure with

¾ crushed stone in accordance with Section 02320.

7. Dewatering discharge:

a. Install and monitor recharge systems as specified.

b. Install sand and gravel filters in conjunction with well points and deep wells to

prevent the migration of fines from the existing soil during the dewatering operation.

c. Transport pumped or drained water without interference to other work, damage to

pavement, other surfaces, or property.

d. Do not discharge water into any sanitary sewer system.

e. Provide separately controllable pumping lines.

f. ENGINEER reserves the right to sample discharge water at any time.

g. Minimize the extent and duration of the hydrological disruption

h. Use dams to prevent backwatering of construction areas

i. Gradually dewater and re-water river and stream segments to avoid abrupt changes

in stream flow

k. Use anti-seep collars around diversion pipes

l. Use upstream sumps to collect groundwater and prevent it from entering the

construction site

m. Collect construction drainage from groundwater, storms, and leaks and treat to

remove sediment

n. Use downstream sediment control sump to collect water that seeps out of the

construction area

o. Use appropriate energy dissipaters and erosion control at pipe outlets

p. When using diversion pipes make sure adequate pumping capacity is available to

handle storm flows

8. Install and place erosion/sedimentation control at the point of discharge as indicated or

specified in Section 01570.

designed to be portable and moved along as work progresses. Additionally, shields can be either

pre-manufactured or job-built in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.652(c)(3) or (c)(4). Shields used

in trenches are usually referred to as "trench boxes" or "trench shields."

H. Sloping - A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating to form sides of an

excavation that are inclined away from the excavation so as to prevent cave-ins. The angle of

incline required to prevent a cave-in varies with differences in such factors as the soil type,

environmental conditions of exposure, and application of surcharge loads.

I. Trench - A narrow excavation (in relation to its length) made below the surface of the ground. In

general, the depth is greater than the width, but the width of a trench (measured at the bottom) is

not greater than 15 feet (4.6 m).

TESTING OF SANITARY SEWER AND STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEMS

PART 1 GENERAL

1. SUMMARY

Section Includes

1. Video inspection of storm drainage systems

PART 2 PRODUCTS

A. Not used

PART 3 EXECUTION

A. TESTING OF GRAVITY SEWER SYSTEMS

1. All gravity sewers shall be tested for allowable leakage by low pressure air test or by an infiltration or

exfiltration water test as described herein.

2. Low Pressure Air Test

i. After completing backfill of a section of pipe, conduct a Line Acceptance Test using

low-pressure air. The test shall be performed according to the specified procedures

and under the supervision of the Engineer. Testing procedures noted in the following

paragraph shall be explicitly followed.

ii. Pneumatic plugs shall be seal tested before being used in the actual test installation.

One length of pipe shall be laid on the ground and sealed at both ends with the

pneumatic plugs to be checked. Air shall be introduced into the plugs to 25 psig. The

sealed pipe shall be pressurized to 5 psig. The plugs shall hold against this pressure

without bracing and without movement of the plugs out of the pipe.

iii. After a manhole reach of pipe has been backfilled and cleaned, and the pneumatic

plugs are checked by the above procedure, the plugs shall be placed in the line at each

manhole and inflated to 25 psig. Low pressure air shall be introduced into this sealed

line until the internal air pressure reaches 4 psig greater than the average back

pressure of any groundwater that may be over the pipe. At least two minutes shall be

allowed for the air pressure to stabilize. After the stabilization period (3.5 psig

minimum pressure in the pipe), the air hose from the control panel to the air supply

shall be disconnected. The portion of the line being tested shall be termed

"Acceptable" if the time required in minutes for the pressure to decrease from 3.5 to

2.5 psig (greater than the average back pressure of any groundwater that may be over

the pipe) shall not be less than the time shown for the given diameters and lengths in

Table 1 (at the end of this section).

iv. Air tests shall cover a 1.0 psig pressure drop; 0.5 psig pressure drop tests are not

acceptable.

22

23

v. In areas where groundwater is known to exist, install a one-half inch diameter capped

pipe nipple, approximately 10 long, through the manhole wall on top of one of the

sewer lines entering the manhole. This shall be done at the time the sewer line is

installed. Immediately prior to Line Acceptance Test, the groundwater shall be

determined by removing the pipe cap, blowing air through the pipe nipple to remove

any obstructions, and then connecting clear plastic tube to the nipple. The hose shall

be held vertically and a measurement of the height shall be taken after the water has

stopped rising in this plastic tube. The height in feet shall be divided by 2.3 to

establish the pressure in pounds per square inch (psig) that will be added to all

readings. (For example, if the height of water is 11-1/2 feet, then the added pressure

will be 5 psig. This increases the 3.5 psig to 8.5 psig, and the 2.5 psig to 7.5 psig.

The allowable drop of one pound per square inch and the timing remain the same.)

vi. The maximum starting test pressure should not exceed 9 psig, regardless of

groundwater level above the pipe. If the groundwater level is such that the added

pressure would be greater than 5.5 psig (12.7 feet), the pipe section may be tested

using a starting pressure of 9 psig.

vii. Each pipe nipple installed to measure groundwater levels should be recapped

subsequent to the air testing procedure to prevent future infiltration.

viii. As an alternative to installing a pipe nipple in a manhole to measure the height of

groundwater, the Contractor shall excavate a test pit over the pipe to determine the

height of groundwater.

3. Vacuum Test for Manholes - Gravity Sewer Lines

i. After a manhole has been constructed, conduct a Manhole Acceptance Test using the

following vacuum test procedure:

a. Plug all lift holes with an approved non-shrink grout.

b. Plug all pipes entering the manhole, taking care to securely brace the

plug from being drawn into the manhole.

c. The test head shall be placed at the inside of the top of the cone

section and the seal inflated in accordance with the manufacturers'

recommendations.

d. Draw a vacuum of 10 inches of mercury and shut off the vacuum

pump. With the valves closed, the time shall be measured for the

vacuum to drop to 9 inches. The manhole shall pass if the time is

greater than:

2. 1 min. 0 sec. for 0-ft. to 10-ft. deep manholes

3. 1 min. 15 sec. for 10-ft. to 15-ft. deep manholes

4. 1 min. 30 sec. for 15-ft. to 25-ft. deep manholes

ii. If the manhole fails the initial test, necessary repairs shall be made with a non-shrink

grout. Retesting shall proceed until a satisfactory test is obtained.

4. Infiltration/Exfiltration Test

i. All gravity type sewers shall be subjected to either an infiltration or an exfiltration test

unless otherwise specified. The type of test required will be contingent upon

groundwater conditions in the area where lines are to be tested. These tests shall

include losses or gains through manholes as well as through pipe walls and joints, as

well as through house connection fittings and pipe. No building shall be connected to

a newly installed sewer until such time as the sewer has been satisfactorily tested.

23

24

ii. Where lines are installed in areas having a high groundwater level, an infiltration test

continuing for at least four (4) hours shall be carried out by the Contractor under the

supervision of the Engineer. Various sections of the sewer shall be isolated through

the use of watertight plugs and the quantity of water entering the pipe during a

predetermined time shall be measured. If the conditions are such that groundwater

table varies depending on surrounding influence and time of the year or if the table

elevation is unknown at the time of testing, the Contractor will be required to excavate

test holes as directed by the Engineer.

iii. Where lines are installed in relatively dry areas, an exfiltration test shall be imposed

on the sewer. This test shall be carried out by isolating various sections of the line

through the use of watertight plugs and filling the line with water to a predetermined

level. The loss of water in a predetermined time shall be determined by measuring the

quantity of water required to refill the line to the original level.

iv. The length of line tested at one time shall be as directed by the Engineer and shall be

dependent upon the grade of the sewer.

v. Losses through manholes shall be included in determining the loss in a line. For

exfiltration test, manholes will be filled to the bottom of the cone or flat top section

and allowed to stabilize before beginning test. Refilling to reference line may be

required before commencing test.

vi. The maximum acceptable loss, through either infiltration or exfiltration, shall not

exceed 100 gallons per mile per 24 hours per inch of diameter of the pipe tested.

When two (2) or more pipeline sections are tested at the same time, the allowable

leakage for the shortest section shall be used as the acceptable loss for the entire

length being tested.

5. Allowable Deflection Test for PVC or HDPE Pipe (Sewer or Drain Pipe) - Unless otherwise specified,

all PVC or HDPE Pipe shall be tested for allowable deflection in accordance with the procedure noted

below.

i. Pipe deflection measured not less than sixty days (60) after the backfill has been

completed as specified shall not exceed five (5.0) percent. Deflection shall be

computed by multiplying the amount of deflection (average outside diameter less

twice the average wall thickness diameter when measured) by 100 and dividing by the

nominal diameter of the pipe.

ii. Deflection shall be measured with a rigid mandrel (Go-No-Go) device cylindrical in

shape and constructed with a minimum of nine or ten evenly spaced arms or prongs.

Submit drawings of the mandrel with complete dimensions for each diameter of pipe

to be tested. Hand pull the mandrel through all sewer and drain lines.

iii. Uncover any section of pipe not passing the mandrel and replace the bedding and

backfill to prevent excessive deflection. Retest repaired pipe until acceptable.

6. Test Failures

i. In case leakage or deflection exceeds the above specified amount, locate the failure

and repair them at no expense to the Owner.

ii. Pipelines with shear-type breaks, fishmouths or damaged gaskets, cracked bells or

couplings, hairline fractures, or structural damage shall be replaced in kind.

Mechanical sleeve couplings, poured concrete collars or similar repairs are not

permitted. The use of pressure grouting repair techniques will not be allowed without

the written consent of the Engineer.

24

25

iii. After repairs have been made, the line shall be re-tested and the process of repairing

and re-testing shall be repeated until results within the above specified limits are

obtained.

7. Alignment of Gravity Sewers and Drains

i. Gravity sewers and drains shall be laid accurately to line and grade.

ii. After completion of the construction, including backfilling, it must be possible to sight

from manhole to manhole THROUGH THE PIPE. This accuracy of laying the pipe

can be easily checked as construction progresses.

iii. In the event that the completed main fails to meet the requirement for alignment

because of horizontal displacement, the Contractor will be allowed to construct

intermediate manholes at his own cost. In the event that the completed sewer main

fails to meet the requirement for alignment because of vertical displacement, remove

and replace the sewer to the proper grades.

8. Video Inspection

i. Video inspection shall be performed upon completion of backfill.

B. PAYMENT FOR TESTS

No separate payment shall be made for preparing or carrying out tests and video inspection of

pipelines or structures. The Contractor shall furnish all materials, equipment, gauges, pumps,

specials, temporary tappings in line, and water or other things required for making the tests. An

allowance for these tests shall be included in the cost for furnishing and installing manholes and

pipe. The manholes and pipe as installed under this Contract will be 100% tested.

Upon completion of the pipe trench backfill as specified in Section 02315, place at the top of a

minimum 12 inch gravel base placed and compacted in 2 even lifts, a 2 inch thick bituminous

concrete binder course compacted so the upper surface will provide the proper cross-section

with adjacent pavement. The Contractor will be allowed to backfill trenches to grade with

gravel during the work week, but will be required to install the pavement on these trenches by

the end of the work week. Until such time as the permanent pavement overlay is placed,

maintain all temporary patch areas by filling in any holes which may develop and adding

additional bituminous material to maintain the surface of the temporary patch even with the

adjacent pavement.

After a period of 90 days, or such other period as determined by the Owner, has elapsed since

placement of the trench patch, proceed with the permanent pavement overlay.

3.3 FULL-WIDTH OVERLAY

Prepare the roadway surface prior to the start of spreading bituminous concrete. This shall include but

not be limited to sweeping, repairing, removing of debris, and tack coating the surface of the

road to be overlaid.

the upper surface shall provide the proper cross-section for the driveway or sidewalk. Until

such time as the final pavement is placed, the CONTRACTOR shall maintain all temporary

patch areas by filling any holes that may develop and by adding additional bituminous material

to maintain the surface of the trench even with the adjacent sidewalk or driveway.

During the season when hot mixes are not available, 2 inches of cold patch shall be placed and

compacted as a temporary surface over the trench. The temporary cold patch repair shall be

maintained in good condition until it is excavated and replaced with hot mix.

After a minimum period of 60-90 days after the most recent excavation within the sidewalk or

driveway has passed, or longer if a sufficient period has not elapsed for maximum compaction

to take place, the CONTRACTOR shall remove a sufficient depth of the temporary surfaces and

gravel to provide for the thickness of surface specified. The gravel surface thus exposed shall

be fine graded and thoroughly compacted using mechanical tampers. The edges of the existing

surface that will abut the repair shall be trued up and cut to smooth and even lines at this time.

Cutting shall be done with a saw. The existing paved surface shall be cut back as required by

the ENGINEER to firm ground that has not sloughed or sagged into or toward the excavation.

Massachusetts Department of Public Works "Standard Specifications for Highways and

Bridges", 1988 edition, as amended.

3.3 SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

A. Following the final top course of paving all pavement edges, waterways, sidewalks, berms, etc.

shall be brought to grade with loam, fine graded, raked, seeded, and rolled to the satisfaction of

the Engineer. Whenever possible the final surface of the loam backup shall slope away from the

surface edge to allow proper sheeting of runoff. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for

protecting, maintaining, and repairing this work until a satisfactory start of healthy grass is

established.

B. Upon removal of the haybales and siltation fence, the Contractor shall loam and seed all

disturbed areas.

C. In locations where the project area passes through existing grass, weed brush or tree-surfaced

areas that are not covered by a specific lawn repair item, surface restoration shall be as follows:

1. After completion of backfilling, the existing loam and surface materials, which were

salvaged during excavation, shall be returned to the top of the trench.

2. After natural settlement and compaction has taken place, the trench surface shall be

harrowed, dragged and raked as necessary to produce a smooth and level surface.

3. The area is then to be sowed with “orchard grass” or “rye grass” or other such materials to

hold the soil and produce a growth similar to that existing prior to construction.

4. The cost of repairing the trench surface in this manner shall be included in the trench

excavation price.

AGREEMENT

This Agreement, made this __________________ day of ___________________ in the year two

thousand eleven between the Town of Longmeadow, acting by and through its Town Manager

and/or its Select Board hereinafter called Owner and

hereinafter called Contractor with an address of .

Owner and Contractor, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, agree as

follows:

ARTICLE 1 WORK

1.1 Contractor shall complete all Work as specified or indicated in the Town of Longmeadow

Contract Documents: Town of Longmeadow, IFB: Ely Way Drainage Outfall Repair

ARTICLE 2 ENGINEER

2.1 The Project has been designed by Town of Longmeadow Engineer, Yem Lip who is

hereinafter called Engineer. Engineer will act as Owner’s representative, assuming all

duties and responsibilities, rights and authority assigned to Engineer in the Contract

Documents in connection with the completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract

Documents.

ARTICLE 3 CONTRACT TIMES

3.1 Milestone Dates for Completion

A. The work is to be completed within 60 days of the execution of the contract. The

contractor will have the option to complete paving requirements in the Spring of

2012. All work including paving must be completed by May 30, 2012, the

Substantial Completion date.

3.2 Liquidated Damages

A. Liquidated Damages for Failure to Achieve Substantial Completion:

1. Owner and Contractor recognize that time is of the essence as to Substantial

Completion and that Owner will suffer financial loss if the Work is not

substantially complete within either of the time specified in Article 3,

Paragraph 3.1 A., plus any extensions thereof allowed in accordance with the

Bid Terms and Conditions. Owner and Contractor also recognize the delays,

expense and difficulties involved in proving in a legal proceeding the actual

loss suffered by Owner if the Work is not substantially complete on time.

Accordingly, if the Contractor shall neglect, fail or refuse to complete the

Work within the time specified for Substantial Completion, or any proper

extension granted by the Owner, then the Contractor agrees, as partial

consideration for the awarding of this contract, to pay to the Owner $100.00

per calendar day for non-completed work after the milestone date of

completion as identified in Agreement section 3.1. The amount is fixed and

agreed upon by and between the Contractor and the Owner, not as a penalty,

but because of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of fixing and

ascertaining the actual damages the Owner would in such event sustain, and the

amount is agreed to be the amount of damages that the Owner would sustain.

54

The Owner shall have the right to deduct the amount of any such accruing

damages from any periodic payments due to the Contractor under this contract.

B. Additional Damages for Failure to Achieve Final Completion:

1. Owner and Contractor recognize that, even after Substantial Completion has

been achieved, any delay in achieving final completion beyond the time

specified in Article 3, Paragraph 3.1 A above, may cause the OWNER further

damage. Accordingly, after Substantial Completion, if Contractor shall neglect,

refuse or fail to complete the remaining Work within the Contract Time,

Contractor shall pay Owner the actual costs reasonably incurred by the Owner

for each day that expires after the time specified in Article 3, Paragraph 3.1 A for the Work to be completed and made ready for final payment until the Work

is completed and ready for final payment. The Owner shall have the right to

deduct the amount of any such accruing costs from any monies due the

Contractor under this Contract.

ARTICLE 4 CONTRACT PRICE

4.1 Owner shall pay Contractor for completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract

Documents an amount in current funds equal to the prices stated in Contractor’s Bid,

attached hereto as an exhibit. The amount submitted on the Bid Submission Forms, items 1

through thirteen has a grand total bid amount of $ .

conformity with the provisions contained herein.
