GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS 1. Interpretation of Documents Included in Bid Package

A. Defined Terms. All terms capitalized in these General Instructions to Bidders and in the other documents included in the Bid Package are defined in the documents included in the Bid Package and shall have such defined meanings wherever used.

B. Implied Terms. If any personnel, equipment, materials, or supplies that are not directly or indirectly set forth in the Contract are nevertheless necessary to the proper provision, performance, and completion of the whole of the Work in accordance with the intent of the Contract, each prospective Bidder shall understand such personnel, equipment, materials, or supplies to be implied and shall provide for such personnel, equipment, materials, or supplies in its Bidder’s Proposal as fully as if it were particularly described.

C. Information Provided by Owner. When information pertaining to subsurface, underground or other concealed conditions, soils analysis, borings, test pits, utility locations or conditions, buried structures, condition of existing structures, and other preliminary investigations is distributed with the Bid Package, or such information is otherwise made available to any prospective Bidder by Owner, such information is distributed or made available solely for the convenience of such prospective Bidder and is not part of the Bid Package. Owner assumes no responsibility whatever in respect to the sufficiency or accuracy of any such information, and there is no guaranty or warranty, either expressed or implied, that the conditions indicated are representative of those existing throughout the Work or the Work Site, or that the conditions indicated are representative of those existing at any particular location, or that unanticipated conditions may not be present.

D. Addenda. No interpretation of the documents included within the Bid Package will be made except by written addendum duly issued by Owner (“Addendum”). No interpretation not contained in an Addendum shall be valid or have any force or effect whatever, nor entitle any Bidder to assert any claim or demand against Owner on account thereof.

All Addenda issued prior to the opening of Bidder's Proposals shall become a part of the Bid Package. Each prospective Bidder shall be responsible for inquiring from time to time as to the availability of Addenda.

If any prospective Bidder is in doubt as to the true meaning of any part of the Bid Package, such prospective Bidder shall submit to Owner a written request for an interpretation thereof as far in advance of the scheduled opening of Bidder's Proposals as possible.

Owner shall use its best efforts to issue Addenda in response to all valid, appropriate, and timely inquiries, but accepts no responsibility for doing so. Inquiries not answered by Addenda shall be considered invalid, inappropriate, or untimely inquiries.

2. Calculation of Unit Price Proposals

On all items for which Bidder’s Proposals are to be received on a unit price basis, the approximate quantities stated in the Schedule of Prices are Owner’s estimate only for Owner’s convenience in comparing Bidder’s Proposals and shall not be relied upon by Prospective Bidders. Each prospective Bidder shall, before submitting its Bidder’s Proposal, make its own estimate of the quantities of Unit Price Items required to complete the Work and shall determine its Price Proposal for each Unit Price Item in light of its own estimate.

INSTRUCTIONS


3. Prevailing Wages

In accordance with the Prevailing Wage Act, 820 ILCS 130/0.01 et seq., not less than the prevailing rate of wages for similar work in the locality in which the Work is to be performed shall be paid to all laborers. A copy of Owner’s ordinance ascertaining the prevailing rate of wages, in effect as of the date of the Invitation for Bidder’s Proposals, is included in the Bid Package. If the Illinois Department of Labor revises the prevailing rate of hourly wages to be paid, the revised rate shall apply to the Contract.

4. Taxes and Benefits

Owner is exempt from state and local sales, use, and excise taxes. Bidder’s Price Proposal shall not include any such taxes. A letter of exemption will be provided to the successful Bidder, if necessary. Owner will not reimburse, nor assist the successful Bidder in obtaining reimbursement for, any state or local sales, use or excise taxes paid by the successful Bidder.

Bidder’s Price Proposal shall include all other applicable federal, state, and local taxes of every kind or nature applicable to the Work as well as all taxes, contributions, and premiums for unemployment insurance, old age or retirement benefits, pensions, annuities or other similar benefits.

5. Permits and Licenses

Except as otherwise expressly provided in Attachment A to the Contract, Bidder’s Price Proposal shall include the cost of obtaining all permits, licenses, and other approvals and authorizations required by law for performance of the Work. It shall be the sole responsibility of each prospective Bidder to determine the applicable permits, licenses, and other approvals and authorizations and no extra compensation shall be paid by Owner for the successful Bidder’s failure to include these costs in its Bidder’s Proposal.

6. Preparation of Bidder's Proposal

Bidder's Proposals to enter into the Contract for the Work shall be made only on the Bidder's Proposal form [Attachment A-1] furnished by Owner and included in the Bid Package.

Entries on the Bidder's Proposal form shall be typed or legibly written in ink. Price Proposals are to be written by words and by figures as provided on the Bidder's Proposal form. In case of any conflict, words shall prevail. This project is being bid via the online electronic bidding service through QuestCDN and a bid will not be allowed if it does not contain a requested price for each and every item named in the Bidder's Proposal form.

Prospective Bidders are warned against making alterations of any kind to the Bidder's Proposal form or to any entry thereon. Bidder's Proposals that contain omissions, conditions, alterations, or additions not called for may be rejected or interpreted so as to be most favorable to Owner.

Each Bidder shall download, acknowledge receipt and upload with its Bidder's Proposal a copy of each Addendum issued and shall include in the place provided therefore in the Bidder's Proposal form a listing of all such Addenda.

Each Bidder shall complete and include into its Bidder's Proposal the Bidder's Sworn Acknowledgement (both Sealed and Notarized) and the Bidder's Sworn Work History Statement (when applicable) included in the Bid Package, and shall staple into its Bidder's Proposal the Bid Security.

Every Bidder submitting a Bidder's Proposal shall be conclusively deemed to have evidenced an intention to be bound thereby whether or not the requirements for signing Bidder's Proposals found in Section 7 of these General Instructions to Bidders are satisfied. However, any Bidder's Proposal that fails to comply with Section 7 of these General Instructions to Bidders may nevertheless be rejected.

Bidder's Proposals that are not submitted on the Bidder's Proposal form furnished by Owner or that are not prepared in accordance with these General Instructions to Bidders may be rejected.

INSTRUCTIONS


If a deficiently prepared Bidder's Proposal is not rejected, Owner may demand correction of any deficiency and award the Contract to Bidder upon satisfactory compliance with these General Instructions to Bidders.

7. Signature Requirements

A. Bidder’s Proposals. The following requirements shall be observed in the signing of each Bidder’s Proposal:

(1) Corporations. Each Bidder’s Proposal submitted by a corporation shall be signed by the President or other authorized officer of the corporation and shall also bear the attesting signature of the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the corporation.

(2) Partnerships. Each Bidder’s Proposal submitted by a partnership shall be signed by all of its general partners or by an attorney-in-fact.

(3) Individuals. Each Bidder’s Proposal submitted by an individual shall be signed by such individual or by an attorney-in-fact.

(4) Joint Ventures. Each Bidder’s Proposal submitted by a joint venture shall be signed by each signatory of the joint venture agreement by which such joint venture was formed in accordance with the applicable provisions of (1), (2), and (3) above or by an attorney-in-fact.

When requested by Owner, satisfactory evidence of the authority of the person or persons signing on behalf of Bidder shall be furnished.

B. Other Documents. The signature requirements set forth in Subsection 7A shall apply to all other documents in the Bid Package required to be executed by Bidder, Bidder’s sureties and Bidder’s insurance representatives as well as to the Contract, the Contractor’s Certification, and all other required documentation related to the Contract.

8. Bid Security

A. Required Bid Security. Every Bidder’s Proposal shall be accompanied by bid security in the form of a Bid Bond as specified in the Invitation for Bidder’s Proposals (“Bid Security”), which Bid Security shall stand as a guaranty that (1) Bidder will submit all additional information requested by Owner; (2) if such Bidder’s Proposal is accepted, Bidder will timely file the Bonds and the certificates and policies of insurance required by the Contract; and (3) if such Bidder’s Proposal is accepted, Bidder will timely execute the Contract, the Contractor’s Certification, and all other required documentation related to the Contract.

B. Return of Bid Security. The City will hold the Bid Security from the two lowest Bidders until the contract is signed. Bid Security submitted in the form of Cashier’s Checks or Certified Checks will be returned within five days after execution of the Contract by Owner.

C. Liquidated Damages. If a Bidder fails to timely submit all additional information requested by Owner, or if the successful Bidder fails to timely and properly submit all required Bonds, certificates and policies of insurance, or if the successful Bidder fails to timely and properly execute the Contract, the Contractor’s Certification, and all other required documentation related to the Contract, it will be difficult and impracticable to ascertain and determine the amount of damage that Owner will sustain by reason of any such failure. For such reason, every Bidder shall, by submitting its Bidder’s Proposal, be deemed to agree that Owner shall have the right, at its option in the event of any such default, to retain or recover as reasonably estimated liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the entire amount of the Bid Security, or to exercise any and all equitable remedies it may have against the defaulting Bidder.

INSTRUCTIONS

The withdrawal of a Bidder's Proposal prior to opening of any Bidder's Proposal will not prejudice the right of Bidder to file a new Bidder's Proposal.

No Bidder's Proposal shall be withdrawn without the consent of Owner for a period of 60 days after the opening of any Bidder's Proposal. Any Bidder's Proposal may be withdrawn at any time following the expiration of said 60 day period, provided that a request in writing, executed by Bidder in the manner specified in Section 7 of these General Instructions to Bidders, for the withdrawal of such Bidder's Proposal is filed with Owner after said 60 day period. If no such request is filed, the date for acceptance of such Bidder's Proposal shall be deemed to be extended until such a request is filed or until Owner executes a Contract pursuant to the Invitation for Bidder's Proposals or until Owner affirmatively and in writing rejects such Bidder's Proposal.

11. Qualification of Bidders

A. Factors. Owner intends to award the Contract only to a Bidder that furnishes satisfactory evidence that it has the requisite experience, ability, capital, facilities, plant, organization and staffing to enable it to perform the Work successfully and promptly and to complete the Work for the Contract Price and within the Contract Time.

B. Additional Information. Owner reserves the right to require from any Bidder, prior to award of the Contract, a detailed statement regarding the business and technical organizations and plant of Bidder that is available for the Work. Information pertaining to financial resources, experience of personnel, contract defaults, litigation history, and pending construction projects may also be requested.

C. Final Determination. The final selection of the successful Bidder shall be made on the basis of the amount of the Bidder’s Price Proposals, Owner’s prior experience with the Bidders, Owner’s knowledge of the Bidders’ performance on other relevant projects, any additional information submitted by Bidders to satisfy Owner that Bidders are adequately prepared to fulfill the Contract, and all other relevant facts or matters mentioned in the Bid Package or that Owner may legally consider in making its determination.

D. Owner Requests. If Owner requests, in order to demonstrate Bidder’s qualifications to perform the Work, Bidder shall submit written evidence such as financial data, previous experience, present commitments, and such other data as may be called for below within five days of Owner’s request.

1. Each Bid must contain evidence of Bidder’s qualifications to do business in the State of Illinois or covenant to obtain such qualifications prior to award of the contract. Acceptable document shall be IDOT's Certificate of Eligibility.

INSTRUCTIONS


2. The address and description of the Bidder’s place of business.

3. The number of years engaged in the contracting business under the present firm name, and the name of the state where incorporated.

4. A list of the property and equipment available to the Bidder to evaluate if the Bidder can complete the Work in accordance with the Bidding Documents.

5. A financial statement of the Bidder showing that the Bidder has the financial resources to meet all obligations incidental to the Work.

13. A list of sub-contractors who will be used in completion of this contract.

14. Such additional information as will assist Owner in determining whether the Bidder is adequately prepared to fulfill the Contract.

E. The object of the request for the qualification of Bidder is not to discourage bidding or make it difficult for qualified Bidders to file Bids. Neither is it intended to discourage beginning Contractors. It is intended to make it possible for Owner to have exact information on financial ability, equipment, and experience in order to reduce the hazards involved in awarding Contracts to parties who may not be qualified to perform the Work as specified.

F. Bidder is advised to carefully review those portions of the Bid Form requiring Bidder’s representations and certifications.

G. Owner’s decision as to qualification of the Bidder shall be final.

INSTRUCTIONS


12. Disqualification of Bidders

A. More Than One Bidder’s Proposal. No more than one Bidder’s Proposal for the Work described in the Contract shall be considered from any single corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture, whether under the same or different names and whether or not in conjunction with any other corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture. Reasonable grounds for believing that any corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture is interested in more than one Bidder’s Proposal for the Work may cause the rejection of all Bidder’s Proposals in which such corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture is interested. Nothing contained in this Subsection 12A shall prohibit any single corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture, whether under the same or different names and whether or not in conjunction with any other corporation, partnership, individual or joint venture, from submitting a bid or quoting prices to more than one Bidder for equipment, materials and supplies or labor to be furnished as a subcontractor or supplier.

B. Collusion. If there are reasonable grounds for believing that collusion exists among any Bidders, all Bidders’ Proposals of the participants in such collusion will not be considered.

C. Default. If a Bidder is or has been in default on a contract with Owner or in the payment of monies due Owner, its Bidder’s Proposal will not be considered.

13. Award of Contract

A. Reservation of Rights. Owner reserves the right to accept the Bidder’s Proposal that is, in its judgment, the best and most favorable to the interests of Owner and the public; to reject the low Price Proposal; to accept any item of any Bidder’s Proposal; to reject any and all Bidder’s Proposals; to accept and incorporate corrections, clarifications or modifications following the opening of the Bidder’s Proposals when to do so would not, in Owner’s opinion, prejudice the bidding process or create any improper advantage to any Bidder; and to waive irregularities and informalities in the bidding process or in any Bidder’s Proposal submitted; provided, however, that the waiver of any prior defect or informality shall not be considered a waiver of any future or similar defects or informalities, and Bidders should not rely upon, or anticipate, such waivers in submitting their Bidder’s Proposals.

B. Firm Offers. All Bidder’s Proposals are firm offers to enter into the Contract and no Bidder’s Proposals shall be deemed rejected, notwithstanding acceptance of any other Bidder’s Proposal, until the Contract has been executed by both Owner and the successful Bidder or until Owner affirmatively and in writing rejects such Bidder’s Proposal.

C. Time of Award. It is expected that the award of the Contract, if it is awarded, will be made within 60 days following the opening of the Bidder’s Proposals. Should administrative difficulties be encountered after the opening of the Bidder’s Proposals, including the annulment of any award, that may delay an award or subsequent award beyond such 60 day period, Owner may accept any Bidder’s Proposal for which the date for acceptance has been extended as provided in Section 10 of these General Instructions to Bidders in order to avoid the need for re-advertisement. No Bidder shall be under any obligation to extend the date for acceptance of its Bidder’s Proposal. Failure of one or more of the Bidders or their sureties to extend the date for acceptance of its Bidder’s Proposal shall not prejudice the right of Owner to accept any Bidder’s Proposal for which the date for acceptance has been extended.

14. Notice of Award; Effective Date of Award

If the Contract is awarded by Owner, such award shall be effective when a Notice of Award has been delivered to the successful Bidder (“Effective Date of Award”). Owner will prepare three copies of the Contract based upon Bidder’s Proposal and will submit them to the successful Bidder.

INSTRUCTIONS


15. Closing of Contract

A. Closing Date. Unless otherwise stated in the Notice of Award, the successful Bidder shall satisfactorily complete all Conditions Precedent to Closing, and the Contract and all related documents shall be executed, submitted and exchanged by Owner and Bidder (“Closing”) on, the tenth day following the Effective Date of Award or within such extended period as Owner may, in the exercise of its sole discretion, authorize in writing after issuance of the Notice of Award (“Closing Date”).

B. Conditions Precedent to Closing. On or before the Closing Date, the successful Bidder shall: (1) sign (see Section 7), date as of the Closing Date, and submit to Owner all three copies of the Contract, the Contractor’s Certification, and all other required documentation related to the Contract on or before the Closing Date; and (2) submit three executed copies of all required Bonds dated as of the Closing Date and all certificates and policies of insurance (see Contract, Article IV) (“Conditions Precedent to Closing”).

Failure to timely execute or submit any of the aforesaid documents shall be grounds for the imposition of liquidated damages as more specifically set forth in Section 8 above. If the submitted documents or any of them fail to comply with these General Instructions to Bidders or the Contract or are not timely executed and submitted, Owner may, in its sole discretion, annul the award or allow the successful Bidder an opportunity to correct the deficiencies.

In no event will Owner execute the Contract until any and all such deficiencies have been cured or Owner has received adequate assurances, as determined by Owner, of complete and prompt performance.

C. Closing. At the Closing, and provided that all documents required to be submitted prior to or at the Closing have been reviewed and determined by Owner to be in compliance with these General Instructions to Bidders and the Contract, or assurances of complete and prompt performance satisfactory to Owner have been received, Owner shall execute all copies of the Contract, retain two copies of the completed Contract, and tender one copy to the successful Bidder at the Closing.

16. Failure to Close

A. Annulment of Award; Liquidated Damages. The failure or refusal of a successful Bidder to comply with the Conditions Precedent to Closing or to Close shall be just cause for the annulment of the award and the imposition of liquidated damages or the exercise of equitable remedies, both as more specifically set forth in Section 8 above.

B. Subsequent Awards. Upon annulment of an award, Owner may accept, and award a Contract based on, any other Bidder’s Proposal as Owner, in its sole judgment, deems to be the best or may invite new Proposals or may abandon the bidding process or the Work.

17. Special Instructions

See Attachment D of Contract

WHEREAS, Contractor has entered into a written agreement dated [DATE OF CONTRACT AGREEMENT], with Owner entitled “Contract Agreement Between City of Highland Park and [CONTRACTOR’S NAME] for the Construction of [NAME OF WORK] - Contract [NO.]” (the “Contract”), the terms and conditions of which are by this reference incorporated herein as though fully set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH THAT if Contractor shall well, truly, and promptly perform all the undertakings, covenants, terms, conditions, and agreements of said Contractor under the Contract, including, but not limited to, Contractor’s obligations under the Contract: (1) to provide, perform and complete at the Work Site and in the manner specified in the Contract all necessary work, labor, services, transportation, equipment, materials, apparatus, machinery, tools, fuels, gas, electric, water, waste disposal, information, data, and other means and items necessary for the construction and installation of the [NAME OF WORK], together with related attachments, equipment, and appurtenances thereto; (2) to procure and furnish all permits, licenses, and other governmental approvals and authorizations necessary in connection therewith except as otherwise expressly provided in the Special Conditions of Contract; (3) to procure and furnish all bonds and certificates and policies of insurance specified in the Contract; (4) to pay all applicable federal, state, and local taxes; (5) to do all other things required of Contractor by the Contract; and (6) to provide, perform, and complete all of the foregoing in a proper and workmanlike manner and in full compliance with, and as required by and pursuant to, the Contract; all of which is herein referred to as the “Work,” whether or not any of said Work enter into and become component parts of the improvement contemplated, then this obligation shall be null and void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect.

Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no changes, modifications, alterations, omissions, deletions, additions, extensions of time, or forbearances on the part of either Owner or Contractor to the other in or to the terms of said Contract; in or to the schedules, plans, drawings, or specifications; in or to the method or manner of performance of the Work; in or to Owner-furnished

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing paragraph, in no event shall the obligations of Surety under this bond in the event of Contractor’s default be greater than the obligations of Contractor under the Contract in the absence of such Contractor default.

In the event of a default or defaults by Contractor, Owner shall have the right to take over and complete the Contract upon 30 calendar days’ written notice to Surety, in which event Surety shall pay Owner all costs incurred by Owner in taking over and completing the Contract.

Owner shall have no obligation to actually incur any expense or correct any deficient performance of Contractor in order to be entitled to receive the proceeds of this bond.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH THAT if Contractor shall promptly pay or cause to be paid all sums of money that may be due to any claimant with respect to Contractor’s obligations under the Contract: (1) to provide, perform, and complete at the Work Site and in the manner specified in the Contract all necessary work, labor, services, transportation, equipment, materials, apparatus, machinery, tools, fuels, gas, electric, water, waste disposal, information, data, and other means and items necessary for the construction and installation of the [NAME OF WORK], together with related attachments, equipment, and appurtenances thereto; (2) to procure and furnish all permits, licenses, and other governmental approvals and authorizations necessary in connection therewith except as otherwise expressly provided in the Special Conditions of Contract; (3) to procure and furnish all bonds and certificates and policies of insurance specified in the Contract; (4) to pay all applicable federal, state, and local taxes; (5) to do all other things required of Contractor by the Contract; and (6) to provide, perform, and complete all of the foregoing in a proper and workmanlike manner and in full compliance with, and as required by and pursuant to, the Contract; all of which is herein referred to as the “Work,” whether or not any of said Work enter into and become component parts of the improvement contemplated, then this obligation shall be null and void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect.

Contractor and Surety hereby jointly agree that Owner may sue on this bond if Owner is held liable to, or voluntarily agrees to pay, any claimant directly, but nothing in this bond shall create any duty on the part of Owner to pay any claimant.

Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no changes, modifications, alterations, omissions, deletions, additions, extensions of time, or forbearances on the part of Owner or Contractor to the other in or to the terms of said Contract; in or to the schedules, plans, drawings, or specifications; in or to the method or manner of performance of the Work; in or to Owner-furnished facilities, equipment, materials, services, or sites; or in or to the mode or manner of payment therefor shall in any way release Contractor and Surety or either or any of them, or any of their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, or assigns, or affect the obligations of said Surety on this bond, all notice of any and all of the foregoing changes, modifications, alterations, omissions, deletions, additions, extensions of time, or forbearances and notice of any and all defaults by Contractor or of Owner’s termination of Contractor being hereby waived by Surety.

Contractor shall promptly notify Owner of any discrepancy, error, omission, ambiguity, or conflict among any of the provisions of this Contract before proceeding with any Work affected thereby. If Contractor fails to give such notice to Owner, then the subsequent decision of Owner as to which provision of this Contract shall govern shall be final, and any corrective work required shall not entitle Contractor to any damages, to any compensation in excess of the Contract Price, or to any delay or extension of the Contract Time.

When the equipment, materials, or supplies furnished by Contractor cannot be installed as specified in this Contract, Contractor shall, without any increase in the Contract Price, make all modifications required to properly install the equipment, materials, or supplies.

Contractor shall have no claim for damages, for compensation in excess of the Contract Price, or for a delay or extension of the Contract Time based upon conditions found at, or in the vicinity of, the Work Site. When information pertaining to subsurface, underground or other concealed conditions, soils analysis, borings, test pits, utility locations or conditions, buried structures, condition of existing structures, and other investigations is or has been provided by Owner, or is or has been otherwise made available to Contractor by Owner, such information is or has been provided or made available solely for the convenience of Contractor and is not part of this Contract.

Contractor shall notify Owner of any discrepancy between the dimensions, elevations, and quantities indicated in this Contract and the conditions of the Work Site or any other errors, omissions or discrepancies which Contract may discover during such inspections. Full instructions will be furnished by Owner should such error, omission, or discrepancy be discovered, and Contractor shall carry out such instructions as if originally specified and without any increase in Contract Price.

The Work and everything pertaining thereto shall be provided, performed, completed, and maintained at the sole risk and cost of Contractor from the Commencement Date until Final Payment. Contractor shall be fully responsible for the protection of all public and private property and all persons. Without limiting the foregoing, Contractor shall, at its own cost and expense, provide all permanent and temporary shoring, anchoring and bracing required by the nature of the Work in order to make all parts absolutely stable and rigid, even when such shoring, anchoring and bracing is not explicitly specified, and support and protect all buildings, bridges, roadways, conduits, wires, water pipes, gas pipes, sewers, pavements, curbs, sidewalks, fixtures and landscaping of all kinds and all other public or private property that may be encountered or endangered in providing, performing and completing the Work.

Contractor shall, promptly and without charge to Owner, repair or replace, to the satisfaction of Owner, any damage done to, and any loss suffered by, the Work and any damage done to, and any loss suffered by, the Work Site or other property as a result of the Work. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, Contractor's obligations under this Section shall exist without regard to, and shall not be construed to be waived by, the availability or unavailability of any insurance, either of Owner or Contractor, to indemnify, hold harmless, or reimburse Contractor for the cost of any repair or replacement work required by this Section.

1.12 Subcontractors and Suppliers

A. Approval and Use of Subcontractors and Suppliers. Contractor shall perform the Work with its own personnel and under the management, supervision, and control of its own organization unless otherwise approved by Owner in writing. All subcontractors, suppliers, and subcontracts used by Contractor shall be acceptable to, and approved in advance by, Owner. Owner's approval of any subcontractor, supplier, and subcontract shall not relieve Contractor of full responsibility and liability for the provision, performance, and completion of the Work in full compliance with, and as required by or pursuant to, this Contract. All Work performed under any subcontract shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Contract in the same manner as if performed by employees of Contractor. Every reference in this Contract to “Contractor” shall be deemed also to refer to all subcontractors and suppliers of Contractor. Every subcontract shall include a provision binding the subcontractor or supplier to all provisions of this Contract.

B. Removal of Subcontractors and Suppliers. If any subcontractor or supplier fails to perform the part of the Work undertaken by it in a manner satisfactory to Owner, Contractor shall immediately upon


notice from Owner terminate such subcontractor or supplier. Contractor shall have no claim for damages, for compensation in excess of the Contract Price, or for a delay or extension of the Contract Time as a result of any such termination.

1.13 Simultaneous Work By Others

Owner shall have the right to perform or have performed such other work, as Owner may desire in, about, or near the Work Site during the performance of the Work by Contractor. Contractor shall make every reasonable effort to perform the Work in such manner as to enable both the Work and such other work to be completed without hindrance or interference from each other. Contractor shall afford Owner and other contractors reasonable opportunity for the execution of such other work and shall properly coordinate the Work with such other work.

1.14 Occupancy Prior to Final Payment

Owner shall have the right, at its election, to occupy, use, or place in service any part of the Work prior to Final Payment. Such occupancy, use, or placement in service shall be conducted in such manner as not to damage any of the Work or to unreasonably interfere with the progress of the Work. No such occupancy, use, or placement in service shall be construed as an acceptance of any of the Work or a release or satisfaction of Contractor's duty to insure and protect the Work, not shall it, unless conducted in an unreasonable manner, be considered as an interference with Contractor's provision, performance, or completion of the Work.

1.15 Owner's Right to Terminate or Suspend Work for Convenience

A. Termination or Suspension for Convenience. Owner shall have the right, for its convenience, to terminate or suspend the Work in whole or in part at any time by written notice to Contractor. Every such notice shall state the extent and effective date of such termination or suspension. On such effective date, Contractor shall, as and to the extent directed, stop Work under this Contract, cease all placement of further orders or subcontracts, terminate or suspend Work under existing orders and subcontracts, cancel any outstanding orders or subcontracts that may be cancelled, and take any action necessary to protect any property in its possession in which Owner has or may acquire any interest and to dispose of such property in such manner as may be directed by Owner.

B. Payment for Completed Work. In the event of any termination pursuant to Subsection 1.15A above, Owner shall pay Contractor (1) such direct costs, excluding overhead, as Contractor shall have paid or incurred for all Work done in compliance with, and as required by or pursuant to, this Contract up to the effective date of termination together with ten percent of such costs for overhead and profit; and (2) such other costs pertaining to the Work, exclusive of overhead and profit, as Contractor may have reasonably and necessarily incurred as the result of such termination. Any such payment shall be offset by any prior payment or payments and shall be subject to Owner's rights to withhold and deduct as provided in this Contract.

ARTICLE II CHANGES AND DELAYS

2.1 Changes

Owner shall have the right, by written order executed by Owner, to make changes in the Contract, the Work, the Work Site, and the Contract Time (“Change Order”). If any Change Order causes an increase or decrease in the amount of the Work, an equitable adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Time may be made. All claims by Contractor for an equitable adjustment in either the Contract Price or the Contract Time shall be made within two business days following receipt of such Change Order, and shall, if not made prior to such time, be conclusively deemed to have been waived. No decrease in the amount of the


Work caused by any Change Order shall entitle Contractor to make any claim for damages, anticipated profits, or other compensation.

2.2 Delays

A. Extensions for Unavoidable Delays. For any delay that may result from causes that could not be avoided or controlled by Contractor, Contractor shall, upon timely written application, be entitled to issuance of a Change Order providing for an extension of the Contract Time for a period of time equal to the delay resulting from such unavoidable cause. No extension of the Contract Time shall be allowed for any other delay in completion of the Work.

B. No Compensation for Delays. No payment, compensation, damages, or adjustment of any kind, other than the extension of the Contract Time provided in Subsection 2.2A above, shall be made to, or claimed by, Contractor because of hindrances or delays from any cause in the commencement, prosecution, or completion of the Work, whether caused by Owner or any other party and whether avoidable or unavoidable.

B. Re-Inspection. Re-inspection and re-testing of any Work may be ordered by Owner at any time, and, if so ordered, any covered or closed Work shall be uncovered or opened by Contractor. If the Work is found to be in full compliance with this Contract, then Owner shall pay the cost of uncovering, opening, re-inspecting, or re-testing, as the case may be. If such Work is not in full compliance with this Contract, then Contractor shall pay such cost.

C. Correction. Until Final Payment, Contractor shall, promptly and without charge, repair, correct, or replace all or any part of the Work that is defective, damaged, flawed, or unsuitable or that in any way fails to conform strictly to the requirements of this Contract.

Contractor warrants that the Work and all of its components shall be free from defects and flaws in design, workmanship, and materials; shall strictly conform to the requirements of this Contract; and shall be fit, sufficient, and suitable for the purposes expressed in, or reasonably inferred from, this Contract. The warranty herein expressed shall be in addition to any other warranties expressed in this Contract, or expressed or implied by law, which are hereby reserved unto Owner.

B. Repairs; Extension of Warranty. Contractor shall, promptly and without charge, correct any failure to fulfill the above warranty that may be discovered or develop at any time within one year after Final Payment or such longer period as may be prescribed in Attachment B or Attachment D to this Contract or by law. The above warranty shall be extended automatically to cover all repaired and replacement parts and labor provided or performed under such warranty and Contractor's obligation to correct Work shall be extended for a period of one year from the date of such repair or replacement. The time period established in this Subsection 3.2B relates only to the specific obligation of Contractor to correct Work and shall not be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations that Contractor has under this Contract.

C. Subcontractor and Supplier Warranties. Whenever Attachment B or Attachment D requires a subcontractor or supplier to provide a guaranty or warranty, Contractor shall be solely responsible


for obtaining said guaranty or warranty in form satisfactory to Owner and assigning said warranty or guaranty to Owner. Acceptance of any assigned warranties or guaranties by Owner shall be a precondition to Final Payment and shall not relieve Contractor of any of its guaranty or warranty obligations under this Contract.

3.3 Owner's Right to Correct

If, within two business days after Owner gives Contractor notice of any defect, damage, flaw, unsuitability, nonconformity, or failure to meet warranty subject to correction by Contractor pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2 of this Contract, Contractor neglects to make, or undertake with due diligence to make, the necessary corrections, then Owner shall be entitled to make, either with its own forces or with contract forces, the corrections and to recover from Contractor all resulting costs, expenses, losses, or damages, including attorneys' fees and administrative expenses.

ARTICLE IV FINANCIAL ASSURANCES

Such policies shall be in a form, and from companies, acceptable to Owner. Such insurance shall provide that no change, modification in, or cancellation of any insurance shall become effective until the expiration of 30 days after written notice thereof shall have been given by the insurance company to Owner. Contractor shall, at all times while providing, performing, or completing the Work, including, without limitation, at all times while correcting any failure to meet warranty pursuant to Section 3.2 of this Contract, maintain and keep in force, at Contractor's expense, the minimum insurance coverage and limits set forth in Attachment A.

Owner shall pay to Contractor, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Article V and Attachment A, and Contractor shall accept in full satisfaction for providing, performing, and completing the Work, the amount or amounts set forth in Attachment A (“Contract Price”), subject to any additions, deductions, or withholdings provided for in this Contract.

Owner is exempt from and shall not be responsible to pay, or reimburse Contractor for, any state or local sales, use, or excise taxes. The Contract Price includes all other applicable federal, state, and local taxes of every kind and nature applicable to the Work as well as all taxes, contributions, and premiums for unemployment insurance, old age or retirement benefits, pensions, annuities, or other similar benefits. All claim or right to claim additional compensation by reason of the payment of any such tax, contribution, or premium is hereby waived and released by Contractor.

5.3 Progress Payments

A. Payment in Installments. The Contract Price shall be paid in monthly installments in the manner set forth in Attachment A (“Progress Payments”).

B. Pay Requests. Contractor shall, as a condition precedent to its right to receive each Progress Payment, submit to Owner a pay request in the form provided by Owner (“Pay Request”). The first Pay Request shall be submitted not sooner than 60 days following commencement of work. Owner may, by written notice to Contractor, designate a specific day of each month on or before which Pay Requests must be submitted. Each Pay Request shall include (a) Contractor's certification of the value of, and partial or final waivers of lien covering, all Work for which payment is then requested and (b) Contractor's certification that all prior Progress Payments have been properly applied to the payment or reimbursement of the costs with respect to which they were paid.

C. Work Entire. This Contract and the Work are entire and the Work as a whole is of the essence of this Contract. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, each and every part of this Contract and of the Work are interdependent and common to one another and to Owner's obligation to pay all or any part of the Contract Price or any other consideration for the Work. Any and all Progress Payments made pursuant to this Article are provided merely for the convenience of Contractor and for no other purpose.

5.4 Final Acceptance and Final Payment

A. Notice of Completion. When the Work has been completed and is ready in all respects for acceptance by Owner, Contractor shall notify Owner and request a final inspection (“Notice of Completion”). Contractor's Notice of Completion shall be given sufficiently in advance of the Completion Date to allow for scheduling of the final inspection and for completion or correction before the Completion Date of any items identified by such inspection as being defective, damaged, flawed, unsuitable, nonconforming, incomplete, or otherwise not in full compliance with, or as required by or pursuant to, this Contract (“Punch List Work”).

B. Punch List and Final Acceptance. The Work shall be finally accepted when, and only when, the whole and all parts thereof shall have been completed to the satisfaction of Owner in full compliance with, and as required by or pursuant to, this Contract. Upon receipt of Contractor's Notice of Completion, Owner shall make a review of the Work and notify Contractor in writing of all Punch List Work, if any, to be completed or corrected. Following Contractor's completion or correction of all Punch List Work, Owner shall make another review of the Work and prepare and deliver to Contractor either a


written notice of additional Punch List Work to be completed or corrected or a written notice of final acceptance of the Work (“Final Acceptance”).

C. Final Payment. As soon as practicable after Final Acceptance, Contractor shall submit to Owner a properly completed final Pay Request in the form provided by Owner (“Final Pay Request”). Owner shall pay to Contractor the balance of the Contract Price, after deducting there from all charges against Contractor as provided for in this Contract (“Final Payment”). Final Payment shall be made not later than 60 days after Owner approves the Final Pay Request. The acceptance by Contractor of Final Payment shall operate as a full and complete release of Owner of and from any and all lawsuits, claims, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses of, by, or to Contractor for anything done, furnished for, arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the Work or for or on account of any act or neglect of Owner arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the Work.

5.5 Liens

A. Title. Nothing in this Contract shall be construed as vesting in Contractor any right of property in any equipment, materials, supplies, and other items provided under this Contract after they have been installed in, incorporated into, attached to, or affixed to, the Work or the Work Site. All such equipment, materials, supplies, and other items shall, upon being so installed, incorporated, attached or affixed, become the property of Owner, but such title shall not release Contractor from its duty to insure and protect the Work in accordance with the requirements of this Contract.

B. Waivers of Lien. Contractor shall, from time to time at Owner's request and in any event prior to Final Payment, furnish to Owner such receipts, releases, affidavits, certificates, and other evidence as may be necessary to establish, to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner, that no lien against the Work or the public funds held by Owner exists in favor of any person whatsoever for or by reason of any equipment, material, supplies, or other item furnished, labor performed, or other thing done in connection with the Work or this Contract (“Lien”) and that no right to file any Lien exists in favor of any person whatsoever.

C. Removal of Liens. If at any time any notice of any Lien is filed, then Contractor shall, promptly and without charge, discharge, remove, or otherwise dispose of such Lien. Until such discharge, removal, or disposition, Owner shall have the right to retain from any money payable hereunder an amount that Owner, in its sole judgment, deems necessary to satisfy such Lien and to pay the costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and administrative expenses, of any actions brought in connection therewith or by reason thereof.

D. Protection of Owner Only. This Section shall not operate to relieve Contractor's surety or sureties from any of their obligations under the Bonds, nor shall it be deemed to vest any right, interest, or entitlement in any subcontractor or supplier. Owner's retention of funds pursuant to this Section shall be deemed solely for the protection of its own interests pending removal of such Liens by Contractor, and Owner shall have no obligation to apply such funds to such removal but may, nevertheless, do so where Owner's interests would thereby be served.

5.6 Deductions

A. Owner's Right to Withhold. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract and without prejudice to any of Owner's other rights or remedies, Owner shall have the right at any time or times, whether before or after approval of any Pay Request, to deduct and withhold from any Progress or Final Payment that may be or become due under this Contract such amount as may reasonably appear necessary to compensate Owner for any actual or prospective loss due to: (1) Work that is defective, damaged, flawed, unsuitable, nonconforming, or incomplete; (2) damage for which Contractor is liable under this Contract; (3) state or local sales, use, or excise taxes from which Owner is exempt; (4) Liens or claims of Lien regardless of merit; (5) claims of subcontractors, suppliers, or other persons regardless of merit; (6) delay in the progress or completion of the Work; (7) inability of Contractor to complete the Work; (8) failure of Contractor to properly complete or document any Pay Request; (9) any other failure of


Contractor to perform any of its obligations under this Contract; or (10) the cost to Owner, including attorneys' fees and administrative costs, of correcting any of the aforesaid matters or exercising any one or more of Owner's remedies set forth in Section 6.3 of this Contract.

B. Use of Withheld Funds. Owner shall be entitled to retain any and all amounts withheld pursuant to Subsection 5.6A above until Contractor shall have either performed the obligations in question or furnished security for such performance satisfactory to Owner. Owner shall be entitled to apply any money withheld or any other money due Contractor under this Contract to reimburse itself for any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, suits, judgments, awards, attorneys' fees and administrative expenses incurred, suffered, or sustained by Owner and chargeable to Contractor under this Contract.

ARTICLE VI DISPUTES AND REMEDIES

6.1 Dispute Resolution Procedure

A. Notice of Disputes and Objections. If Contractor disputes or objects to any requirement, direction, instruction, interpretation, determination, or decision of Owner, Contractor may notify Owner in writing of its dispute or objection and of the amount of any equitable adjustment to the Contract Price or Contract Time to which Contractor claims it will be entitled as a result thereof; provided, however, that Contractor shall, nevertheless, proceed without delay to perform the Work as required, directed, instructed, interpreted, determined, or decided by Owner, without regard to such dispute or objection. Unless Contractor so notifies Owner within two business days after receipt of such requirement, direction, instruction, interpretation, determination, or decision, Contractor shall be conclusively deemed to have waived all such disputes or objections and all claims based thereon.

B. Negotiation of Disputes and Objections. To avoid and settle without litigation any such dispute or objection, Owner and Contractor agree to engage in good faith negotiations. Within three business days after Owner's receipt of Contractor's written notice of dispute or objection, a conference between Owner and Contractor shall be held to resolve the dispute. Within three business days after the end of the conference, Owner shall render its final decision, in writing, to Contractor. If Contractor objects to the final decision of Owner, then it shall, within three business days, give Owner notice thereof and, in such notice, shall state its final demand for settlement of the dispute. Unless Contractor so notifies Owner, Contractor shall be conclusively deemed (1) to have agreed to and accepted Owner's final decision and (2) to have waived all claims based on such final decision.

6.2 Contractor's Remedies

If Owner fails or refuses to satisfy a final demand made by Contractor pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Contract, or to otherwise resolve the dispute which is the subject of such demand to the satisfaction of Contractor, within ten days following receipt of such demand, then Contractor shall be entitled to pursue such remedies, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Contract, as it may have in law or equity.

6.3 Owner's Remedies

If it should appear at any time prior to Final Payment that Contractor has failed or refused to prosecute, or has delayed in the prosecution of, the Work with diligence at a rate that assures completion of the Work in full compliance with the requirements of this Contract on or before the Completion Date, or has attempted to assign this Contract or Contractor's rights under this Contract, either in whole or in part, or has falsely made any representation or warranty in this Contract, or has otherwise failed, refused, or delayed to perform or satisfy any other requirement of this Contract or has failed to pay its debts as they come due (“Event of Default”), and has failed to cure any such Event of Default within five business days after Contractor's receipt of written notice of such Event of Default, then Owner shall have the right, at its election and without prejudice to any other remedies provided by law or equity, to pursue any one or more of the following remedies:


1. Owner may require Contractor, within such reasonable time as may be fixed by Owner, to complete or correct all or any part of the Work that is defective, damaged, flawed, unsuitable, nonconforming, or incomplete; to remove from the Work Site any such Work; to accelerate all or any part of the Work; and to take any or all other action necessary to bring Contractor and the Work into strict compliance with this Contract.

2. Owner may perform or have performed all Work necessary for the accomplishment of the results stated in Paragraph 1 above and withhold or recover from Contractor all the cost and expense, including attorneys' fees and administrative costs, incurred by Owner in connection therewith.

3. Owner may accept the defective, damaged, flawed, unsuitable, nonconforming, incomplete, or dilatory Work or part thereof and make an equitable reduction in the Contract Price.

4. Owner may terminate this Contract without liability for further payment of amounts due or to become due under this Contract.

5.

The equipment shall be capable of delivering hot water or steam to the far end of the liner to uniformly raise the temperature in the entire liner above the temperature required to initiate and effect curing of the resin system. The temperature shall be determined by the resin/catalyst system employed. The heat source shall be fitted with suitable monitors to gauge the temperature and pressure of the incoming and outgoing heat exchanger circulating heating medium. Thermocouples or temperature gauges or infra-red gun shall be used at insertion and extraction points so as to determine and record the temperature of the liner and time of exotherm. Initial cure shall be deemed to be completed when inspection of the exposed portions of the liner show it to be hard and sound; and when temperature reading(s) at the interface of the liner with the host pipe indicate sufficient heating has occurred. The cure period shall be of a duration recommended by the resin



32

manufacturer; modified for the site specific conditions at the time curing is affected. During this cure time, the temperature inside the liner will be continuously maintained in the range required. Once the cure is complete, the Contractor shall cool the hardened liner to a temperature below one hundred degrees Fahrenheit (100°F) before relieving the internal pressure. Cool down shall be accomplished as recommended by the manufacturers. Care shall be taken in the release of the internal pressure so that a vacuum will not develop that could damage the newly installed liner. The finished lining shall be continuous over the entire length and be free from visual defects such as foreign inclusions, dry spots, pinholes and delaminations. The lining shall be impervious and free of any leakage from the pipe to the surrounding ground or from the ground to the inside of the lined pipe. If at the insertion/extraction ends the lining fails to make a tight seal, the Contractor shall apply a seal of a resin mixture compatible with the liner. After the curing has been completed, any residual water that adheres to the inner wall of the liner shall be removed. This residual water shall be collected and pumped from the channel of the insertion/extraction points and circulated through a separate carbon filtration unit before discharge into a downstream storm manhole.

A leakage test shall be done after satisfactory completion of the pressure test by maintaining a pressure of 150 p.s.i. for two hour duration in accordance with Section 4. Allowable leakage per 1000 feet of pipe is as follows:

6 inch pipe 0.55 gallons per hour 8 inch pipe 0.74 gallons per hour 10 inch pipe 0.92 gallons per hour 12 inch pipe 1.10 gallons per hour 16 inch pipe 1.47 gallons per hour 24 inch pipe 2.21 gallons per hour

The Contractor may at his option backfill the pipeline before conducting the specified pressure and leakage tests.

In order to make said tests, the Contractor shall furnish all apparatus, piping, hose, pump and pressure tank, gauges properly calibrated, a clean barrel or drum to hold water and a five (5) gallon graduated container calibrated into tenths of a gallon or into one half (1/2) pints.

The City reserves the right to use their own tanks and gauges when it is considered necessary to check the Contractor’s equipment for accuracy. To this end, the Contractor shall have enough valves in the test lines so that the pressure in the main is not released while the equipment change is being made.

To avoid disputes regarding leaky valves, the Contractor shall have ready and use, if needed, a device to bring leakage from all valves to the surface of the ground.

The above specified test shall be performed in sections not to exceed 2000 feet in length. A test plug shall be provided where valves are not positioned to facilitate testing. Stub ends, bends, tees, and hydrant leads shall be securely blocked. Temporary timber blocking of test plugs shall be subjected to the equivalent loading pressure on the line. All joint leaks shall be made tight immediately following the test. All joints in pipelines, valves, fittings, and appurtenances found to be defective under the test shall be repaired at the Contractor’s expense. Mains which fail to meet the requirements of the initial test shall be retested after being repaired. Tests shall be repeated until all requirements have been met. The use of air for testing will not be permitted.

The Contractor shall furnish all necessary equipment, labor and material for testing, including the required one (1) inch taps and Mueller H-15001 corporations stops, and the whole cost thereof shall be incidental to the contract and included in the unit contract prices.

DISINFECTION Delete Article 561.05 Disinfection of the Water Main; insert the following: Article 561.05 Disinfection of Water Main.

Before being disinfected, the mains shall be thoroughly flushed by high velocity flushing through the hydrants. Chlorine shall be then injected into the mains as specified below. For this operation, the Contractor shall have inserted in the water pipe, at the connection with the existing main and at intervals of not more than 1000 feet, the required size corporation stop for injection of chlorine and for sampling the



35

water for subsequent bacteriological tests. Said stops shall be brass, equal to Mueller H-15001.

Water mains and accessories thereof shall be chlorinated either by injecting a chlorine gas-water mixture or calcium hypochlorite solution (HTH, Perchloron or Pittchlor) into the main after it is completed. The method to be used will comply with AWWA Specification C601 where applicable. The injected solution shall have a chlorine concentration of approximately 2 percent. To arrive at approximately 2 percent chlorine solution requires the mixing of one pound of high test calcium hypochlorite (65—70 percent C1) to four gallons of water. The amount of this solution required to give a residual of 50 ppm in a 100 foot length of water main is as follows:

6 inch 3/8 gallons/100 feet 8 inch 2/3 gallons/100 feet 10 inch 1 gallon/100 feet 12 inch 1-½ gallons/100 feet 16 inch 2-5/8 gallons/100 feet 24 inch 5-7/8 gallons/100 feet

POINT OF APPLICATION A one (1) inch corporation cock shall be inserted in the top of the new main at the beginning of each pipeline extension and at both ends of any such extension where means of bleeding off water is not available in order that the sterilization solution will make proper contact with every new pipeline surface. In the latter case, chlorine solution shall be applied at both ends of such extension.

RATE OF APPLICATION The valve controlling water flow from the existing distribution system into the new work shall be opened only sufficiently to flow slowly into the newly laid pipeline. After regulating such flow from observation of the rate at the bleed off point, the chlorine shall be pumped into the new main at a uniformly proportionate rate until the displacement water in the pipeline has a uniform contact of chlorine of 50 ppm.

PREVENTING REVERSE FLOW The Contractor shall exercise every precaution to prevent the chlorinating solution from backing up or flowing beyond the limits of the new pipeline extension into the existing distribution system. All valves and hydrants within the limits of the section being chlorinated shall be operated during the application of the chlorine solution. All Terminal Valves except the feed-in valve shall be kept closed.

RETENTION PERIOD On completion of the chlorination process, the feed-in valve shall be tightly shut off and the treated water retained in the line at least 24 hours or longer as may be directed by the Engineer. After 24 hour retention in the pipeline, the residual at the extremities of the section shall not be less than 25 ppm.

FINAL FLUSHING AND TEST Following chlorination, all treated water shall be thoroughly flushed from the newly laid pipelines at the extremities thereof and as directed by the Engineer until the replacement water is chlorine free or has a residual of less than 0.2 ppm. After 24 hour retention of the replacement water in the pipeline, a sample shall be taken from a sterile connection attached to the corporation in the new line and delivered to an EPA certified laboratory for testing and analysis. A second sample shall be taken on the following day and laboratory tested. Quality of water shall meet the requirements of the Division of Public Water Supplies of the State of Illinois for drinking water for at least two consecutive days before placing the new pipeline or section in service.

REPETITION OF PROCEDURE Should the initial chlorinating treatment fail to result in approved laboratory analysis of the sample water, the chlorination shall be repeated until approved quality of water is obtained from the new pipeline extensions or sections.



36

PROTECTION OF WATER MAIN

Water mains and water service lines shall be protected from sanitary sewers, storm sewers, combined sewers, house sewer service connections, and drains as follows:

A) Water Main 1) Horizontal Separation:

a) Water mains shall be laid at least ten feet horizontally from any existing or proposed drain, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, combined sewer, or sewer service connection.

b) Water mains may be laid closer than ten feet to a sewer line when: i) local conditions prevent a lateral separation of ten feet; ii) the water main invert is at least 18 inches above the crown of the sewer; and iii) the water main is either in a separate trench or in the same trench on an

undisturbed earth shelf located to one side of the sewer. c) Both the water main and drain or sewer shall be constructed of slip-on or mechanical

joint ductile iron pipe, prestressed concrete pipe, or PVC pipe meeting the requirements of Section 653.111 when it is impossible to meet (a) or (b) above. The drain or sewer shall be pressure tested to the maximum expected surcharge head before backfilling.

2) Vertical Separation: a) A water main shall be laid so that its invert is 18 inches above the crown of the drain

or sewer whenever water mains cross storm sewers, sanitary sewers, or sewer service connections. The vertical separation shall be maintained for that portion of the water main located within ten feet horizontally of any sewer or drain crossed. A length of water pipe shall be centered over the sewer to be crossed with joints equidistant from the sewer or drain.

b) Both the water main and sewer shall be constructed of a slip-on mechanical joint ductile iron pipe, prestressed concrete pipe, or PVC pipe meeting requirements of Section 653.111 when:

i) it is impossible to obtain the proper vertical separation as described in (a) above; or

ii) the water main passes under a sewer or drain. c) A vertical separation of 18 inches between the invert of the sewer or drain and the

crown of the water main shall be maintained where a water main crosses under a sewer. Support the sewer or drain lines to prevent settling and breaking the water main.

d) Construction shall extend on each side of the crossing until the normal distance from the water main to the sewer or drain line is at least 10 feet.

B) Water Service Lines 1) The horizontal and vertical separation between water service lines and all storm

sewers, sanitary sewers, combined sewers or any drain or sewer service connection shall be the same as water main separation described in (A) above.

2) Water pipe described in (A) above shall be used for sewer service lines when minimum horizontal and vertical separation cannot be maintained.

C) Special Conditions - Alternate solutions shall be presented to the Agency when extreme topographical, geological or existing structural conditions make strict compliance with (A) and (B) above technically and economically impractical. Alternate solutions will be approved provided watertight construction structurally equivalent to approved water main material is proposed.



37

D) Water mains shall be separated from septic tanks, disposal fields, and seepage beds by a minimum of 25 feet.

Water mains and water service lines shall be protected against entrance of hydrocarbons through diffusion through any material used in construction of the line
