4.7 In exercising its discretion, the Owner will have regard to the information

provided by the Tenderer in the Appendices to the Form of Tender as

its discretion the Owner may consider, but is not limited to, the following

criteria in addition to the Tender Price:

a. the proven experience of the Tenderer, and any listed

subcontractors to do the Work;

Preliminary Construction Schedule;

c. the Tenderer's ability to work effectively with the Owner, its

consultants and representatives;

d. the Tenderer's ability to manage and do the work effectively using

the named superintendent and submitted contractors and

subcontractors;

quality of work, changes in the work, force account work, and the

contract administration costs of the Owner;

h. In a addition to any other provision of this tender document, and

totalling in excess of $100,000.00 beyond 90 days of contract

substantial completion for any construction project with the

City.

In determining whether or not to reject a tender under this section, the City

will consider whether the litigation or unresolved extra work claim is likely

to affect the Tenderer‘s ability to work with the City, its employees,

consultants and representatives and whether the City’s experience with the

Tenderer indicates an unusual risk the City will incur increased staff and

legal costs in the administration of the contract if awarded to the Tenderer.

4.8 Effective January 1st, 2011, the City of New Westminster became a

“Living Wage Employer”. As such, the City has established a Living

Wage Policy that requires all firms that are contracted by the City to



IT PART I - PAGE 5

said service on City property, a Living Wage as calculated by the Living

Wage for Families Campaign. The figure for 2014 for the Lower

Mainland is $19.62 assuming no benefits are provided by the employer.

In order to determine an employee’s hourly rate with benefits the Living

Wage for Families has created a Living Wage Calculator to assist with this

determination. Please access the following website to determine your

compatibility.

http://www.livingwageforfamilies.ca/employers/living-wage-calculator/

The City includes in all its competitive bid documents a Declaration

referencing the City’s expectations with regards to compliance of the

Policy. This Declaration can be found in Appendix 7 – Declaration –

Living Wage Employer of these contract documents. Completion and

submission of the Declaration is required prior to contract award.

except for claims made by the Owner in writing in accordance with the

provisions of the Contract Documents and delivered to the Contract

Administrator prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Substantial

Performance and still unsettled. For certainty, nothing in this GC 18.9.3 shall

be interpreted or construed to mean that the Owner in any way waives any

warranty rights or in any way releases the Contractor from the Contractor’s

obligation to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents

and this GC 18.9.3 shall not be construed as any limitation on the Owner’s

rights to claim damages from the Contractor arising from any failure by the

Contractor to have performed the Work as required by the Contract

Geotechnical Report for First Street Area

10 November 2010 File: FV10-1904-00 Dayton & Knight Ltd. #210 – 889 Harbourside Drive North Vancouver, BC V7P 3S1 Attention: Mr. Gurjit Sangha, P Eng Dear Sir: Re: Geotechnical Engineering Assessment

Proposed Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC

PART A: BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1.0 INTRODUCTION As requested, Levelton Consultants Ltd. (Levelton) has prepared this geotechnical engineering assessment report for the above-referenced proposed pressure reducing valve (PRV) station and watermain upgrade at 1st Street, New Westminster, BC.

Our scope of work for this project was provided in our proposal PR10-1069-00 dated 05 July 2010. Authorization to proceed with the scope of work as amended by Dayton & Knight was received via e-mail on 17 October 2010. The modified scope of work stipulated that the City of New Westminster would coordinate the field work to be carried out at the subject site. The scope of work was originally amended to include the review of a test pit excavation completed by others. It was subsequently modified to include the drilling of test holes in accordance with our original scope and fee. In summary, the scope of work included the original scope of work, plus the test pit excavation review.

This report provides a summary of the subsurface conditions at the project location and geotechnical recommendations for the PRV station and watermain design and construction. Our scope of services did not include assessment of the soil or groundwater conditions with respect to environmental considerations.

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 2 2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Dayton & Knight Ltd. drawing provided to Levelton (Drawing No. 146.044; Issue D) indicates that the proposed works are to occur on 1st Street between 10th Avenue (approximately located at Stn 0+000 m, as illustrated on the above-referenced figure) and Ovens Avenue. Levelton understands that the proposed PRV station will consist of an at-grade building with plan dimensions of 6.1 m by 5.4 m. The proposed building will be located on the east side of 1st Street (for discussion purposes, 1st Street is assumed to run north to south) between Sinclair Avenue and Ovens Avenue, at Stn 0+236.64 m. The site location is shown on the attached Figure 1. No information regarding proposed site grades or anticipated PRV station loads has been provided to us at the time this report was prepared. We understand that the invert of the watermain leading to the PRV station will be located approximately 1.85 m below grade. 3.0 SITE CONDITIONS 3.1 SURFICIAL GEOLOGY The Geological Survey of Canada surficial geology map covering New Westminster (Map 1484A) indicates that the soil conditions at the site consist of Vashon drift and Capilano sediments comprised of lodgment and minor flow till with lenses and interbeds of substratified glaciofluvial sand to gravel and lenses and interbeds of glaciolacustrine laminated stony silt, possibly overlain by glaciomarine and marine deposits of stony to stoneless silt loam to clay loam with minor sand and silt. The soil conditions actually encountered comprised fill and organic soils overlying native glaciolacustrine and fluvial sediments as discussed below. 3.2 SOIL CONDITIONS Levelton completed subsurface explorations along the alignment of the existing watermain located on 1st Street and adjacent to the proposed PRV station on 29 October 2010. The explorations comprised four boreholes advanced to depths of between 3.0 m and 4.6 m at locations selected by the Dayton and Knight, in coordination with the City of New Westminster. Levelton also observed the subsurface soils exposed subsequent to the excavation of a test pit located near the proposed location of the PRV station on 12 October 2010 (TP10-01). However, we were unable to collect representative samples, nor monitor the progress of the test pit excavation. The approximate locations of the test holes are illustrated on the attached Figure 1. Detailed descriptions of the soil and groundwater conditions encountered are provided on the attached soil logs.

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 3 PRV Station Soil Conditions Based on AH10-01 and TP10-01, the following generalized soil profile is anticipated at the location of the PRV station and localized surrounding area:

• Sand and Gravel Fill, brown, loose to compact, overlying;

• Silty Sand Fill, grey, trace gravel, trace to some organics, loose compact, overlying;

• Sandy Silt Fill, brown, trace gravel, some organics, wood debris, soft to firm, overlying;

• Organic Silty Sand Fill, grey brown, rootlets, wood debris, loose to compact, overlying;

• Silt, grey, trace sand to sandy, trace gravel, firm to stiff.

The fill material encountered at AH10-01 and observed at TP10-01 extended to a depth of approximately 3.2 m below the existing grade of 1st Street. The fill was heterogeneous in nature and was observed to have estimated relative densities/consistencies varying between loose to compact for granular fill and soft to firm for fine-grained fill. Samples of the granular fill material had a moisture content generally within a range of 10 to 35 %. However, the organic silty sand fill had a moisture content of approximately 144%, due to its high organic content. Samples of the fine-grained fill material had moisture contents within a range of 35 to 45%. A layer of wood debris was encountered in both AH10-01 and TP10-01 at an approximate depth of 2.4 m below grade. The wood debris layer had an approximate thickness of 300 mm. Native firm to stiff silt with trace to some sand was encountered beneath the fill. Samples of the silt encountered at AH10-01 had moisture contents within the range of 25 to 45 %. AH10-1 terminated in stiff silt at a depth of 4.5 m. Watermain Soil Conditions

Based on AH10-02 through AH10-04, the following generalized soil profile is anticipated along the alignment of the proposed watermain (approximately Stn 0+000 m to Stn 0+190 m):

• Heterogeneous Fill (Silty Sand/Silty Sand and Gravel/Sand/Silt), brown to grey brown, trace to some organics, loose to dense granular soils, soft fine-grained soils, overlying;

• Sandy Silt/Silty Sand, grey to grey brown, trace gravel, firm to very stiff sandy silt, compact to very dense silty sand.

The fill material encountered at AH10-02 to AH10-04 varied between approximately 0.35 and 1.0 m in thickness at the auger hole locations. The thickness of fill appears to generally decrease away from the proposed location of the PRV station (north towards 10th Avenue) and with increasing surface elevation. Samples of the granular fill material

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 4 had moisture contents within a range of approximately 5 to 12%. Samples of the fine-grained fill material had a moisture content of approximately 70%, as a result of the organic content of this soil. The sandy silt/silty sand underlying the fill material had a moisture content within a range of approximately 10 to 30%. The compact to dense native silty sand soil was encountered at a depth of 0.75 m at AH10-4 in the sloping region of the proposed watermain alignment. 3.3 GROUNDWATER

Groundwater seepage was encountered at a depth of approximately 1.8 m below grade in AH10-01 and was observed at a depth of approximately 2.7 m in TP10-01 at the time of pit excavation. No groundwater seepage was encountered in any of the other test holes while they remained open. PART B: DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.0 SITE PREPARATION PRV STATION

It is understood that the PRV station will be grade supported. Site preparation in the area of the PRV station building footprint should consist of excavation to the design subgrade elevation, followed by nominal subgrade preparation to provide suitable and uniform support conditions for a shallow mat or footing foundation and slab-on-grade. It is expected that the exposed subgrade at foundation grade will consist of loose to compact silty sand fill material. Soft or moisture-softened subgrade should be over-excavated to a maximum depth of 600 mm below foundation level and replaced with engineered fill as required by the Geotechnical Engineer. Levelton should review the excavated subgrade prior to placement of any engineered fill or foundation concrete. Fill required to re-establish the grade of the proposed PRV station foundation should consist of engineered fill in accordance with Section 6.0 of this report. Engineered fill should extend horizontally past the foundation a distance at least equal to the thickness of the engineered fill placed below the foundation. At this stage, it is anticipated that groundwater seepage entering excavation for construction of the PRV station could be adequately controlled by using sumps and pumping. Foundation subgrades should be kept free of standing water.

WATERMAIN

Site preparation along the alignment of the watermain leading to the PRV station should consist of excavation to the invert elevation of the watermain. From the drawing provided by Dayton & Knight, this elevation is anticipated to be approximately 1.85 m below the existing grade of 1st Street.

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 5 Based on the soil conditions encountered at AH10-2 through AH10-04, subgrade between approximately Stn 0+000 m and Stn 0+190 m (see Dayton & Knight Drawing No. 146.044; Issue D) is anticipated to consist of firm to very stiff sandy silt or compact to dense silty sand. Where the exposed trench subgrade consists of granular material, we recommend that it be surficially compacted with vibratory equipment prior to placement of any bedding and pipe surround material. These subgrades are considered appropriate for the placement of pipe bedding material in accordance with the recommendations of Section 10.0 below. Subgrade at the invert elevation of the watermain near the PRV station may consist of heterogeneous fill material. Where soft or organic fill material is encountered at the watermain invert elevation, the trench base should be over-excavated a minimum depth of 300 mm to allow for placement of additional pipe bedding in accordance with Section 10.0 of this report. A non-woven geotextile separator such as Propex 1071 or Geotechnical Engineer approved equivalent should be placed on the over-excavated subgrade, if soft soils are present at that elevation. Due to the expected heterogeneity in the subgrade material along the alignment of the watermain, it is recommended that the trench subgrade be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer, prior to placement of pipe bedding material, to identify areas where over-excavation and placement of additional pipe bedding (and possibly a geotextile separator) is required. It is anticipated that groundwater seepage entering the excavation along the alignment of the watermain could be adequately controlled by using sumps and pumping. 5.0 TEMPORARY EXCAVATIONS Temporary excavations up to 1.2 m below grade could be cut at near vertical. The side slopes of unsupported excavations greater than 1.2 m in depth should be sloped at a maximum inclination of 0.75H:1V (horizontal:vertical). Steeper excavations should be shored or approved in writing by a Geotechnical Engineer, prior to worker entry. In general, all temporary excavations should conform to Work Safe BC requirements or suitable trench shoring cages should be utilized. It is recommended that temporary excavation slopes be protected from erosion by surface water runoff by covering them with polyethylene sheeting securely fastened at the top and toe of the slope. 6.0 ENGINEERED FILL Engineered fill used to develop site grades at the location of the proposed PRV station should consist of imported granular material such as a free-draining 75 mm minus pit-run sand and gravel with less than 5% fines (material passing the 0.075 mm sieve) by weight, or an alternate granular material reviewed and approved by Levelton prior to use. Engineered fill should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and should be compacted to not less than 100% of the material’s Standard Proctor Maximum

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 6 Dry Density (SPMDD). Engineered fill below foundations should extend horizontally beyond the footing edges a distance at least equal to the thickness of fill below the foundations. In-place soil density testing should be conducted on the fill as it is being placed to confirm that adequate compaction is achieved. It is our opinion that the existing fill material encountered at the boreholes and TP10-01 will not generally be suitable for re-use as engineered fill at the PRV site due to its heterogeneous nature, moisture content, and organic content. Soils that contain organic matter are not considered suitable for use as engineered fill. 7.0 FOUNDATION DESIGN It is our opinion that the foundation for the proposed PRV station can consist of strip and pad footings bearing on compacted engineered fill placed over Geotechnical Engineer approved subgrade. Foundations can be designed based on a serviceability limit state (SLS) soil bearing resistance of 75 kPa and a factored ultimate limit state (ULS) soil bearing resistance of 125 kPa. The underside of foundations should be located at least 450 mm below finished interior and exterior grade for frost protection and confinement purposes. The Geotechnical Engineer should review the foundation subgrade prior to construction of the foundation formwork. It is judged that total post-construction settlement of footings placed in accordance with the recommendations provided in this report will not exceed 25 mm during the design life of the building. 8.0 SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS The site soils at the location of the PRV station generally consist of heterogeneous fill (sand and gravel/silty sand/sandy silt/organic silty sand/wood debris) underlain by firm to stiff silt. Consequently, it is our opinion that seismic design of the structure may be based on Site Class “E” conditions, in accordance with Division B, Part 4, Section 4.1.8.4 of the 2006 British Columbia Building Code. It is our opinion that the site soils at the PRV station would be resistant to liquefaction during a design magnitude seismic event (2% probability of exceedence in 50 years). 9.0 SLAB-ON-GRADE The interior slab-on-grade for the PRV station should be placed on a minimum 100 mm thick drainage layer comprised of 19 mm minus crushed gravel or well-graded, clean (less than 5% passing the 0.075 mm sieve) sand compacted to not less than 95% of the material’s SPMDD. Polyethylene sheeting should be provided below the interior slab-on-grade to inhibit moisture migration through the concrete.

Geotechnical Engineering Assessment Proposed PRV Station and Watermain Upgrade 1st Street, New Westminster, BC 10-Nov-2010 FV10-1904-00 Page 7 10.0 PIPE BEDDING AND TRENCH BACKFILL We recommend that pipe bedding material conform to the gradation for Type 1 Granular Pipe Bedding and Surround Material contained in the Master Municipal Construction Documents (MMCD) Volume II, or City of New Westminster requirements. The pipe bedding should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and be compacted with vibratory equipment to not less than 95% of the material’s Modified Proctor Maximum Dry Density (MPMDD). Trench backfill should consist of well-graded granular material with a maximum of 5% fines in accordance with MMCD Volume II. Trench backfill should be placed in discrete lifts a maximum of 300 mm in thickness and be compacted to not less than 95% of the material’s MPMDD, as confirmed by in-place soil density tests. The soils encountered at the boreholes contained variable organic content and significant fines content, and may be difficult to re-compact, particularly if placed in wet conditions. Consequently, the excavated in-situ soils are considered to be unsuitable for re-use as trench backfill in the roadway. Should the contractor elect to attempt to use some of the excavated material as backfill, full-time geotechnical review of the material selection, placement, and compaction is recommended. 11.0 GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING REVIEW It is recommended that Levelton review the following aspects of construction:

• Stripped subgrade;

• Engineered fill materials;

• Pipe bedding materials;

• Placement and compaction of engineered fill and pipe bedding;

• Soils at PRV station foundation grade;

• Underslab fill material;

• Foundation backfill material;

• Trench backfill material; and

• Placement and compaction of foundation backfill and trench backfill. 12.0 CLOSURE This geotechnical engineering assessment report has been prepared by Levelton Consultants Ltd. exclusively for Dayton & Knight Ltd. and their appointed agents.

TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR GEOTECHNICAL REPORTS ISSUED BY LEVELTON CONSULTANTS LTD. (continued) 5. INTERPRETATION OF THE REPORT a. Nature and Exactness of Descriptions: The classification and identification of soils, rocks and

geological units, as well as engineering assessments and estimates have been based on investigations performed in accordance with the standards set out in Paragraph 1 above. The classification and identification of these items are judgmental in nature and even comprehensive sampling and testing programs, implemented with the appropriate equipment by experienced personnel, may fail to locate some conditions. All investigations or assessments utilizing the standards of Paragraph 1 involve an inherent risk that some conditions will not be detected and all documents or records summarizing such investigations will be based on assumptions of what exists between the actual points sampled. Actual conditions may vary significantly between the points investigated and all persons making use of such documents or records should be aware of, and accept, this risk. Some conditions are subject to changes over time and the parties making use of the Report should be aware of this possibility and understand that the Report only presents the conditions at the sampled points at the time of sampling. Where special concerns exist, or when the Client has special considerations or requirements, the Client must disclose them to Levelton so that additional or special investigations may be undertaken, which would not otherwise be within the scope of investigations made by Levelton or the purposes of the Report.

b. Reliance on information: The evaluation and conclusions contained in the Report have been prepared on the basis of conditions in evidence at the time of site investigation and field review and on the basis of information provided to Levelton. Levelton has relied in good faith upon representations, information and instructions provided by the Client and others concerning the site. Accordingly, Levelton cannot accept responsibility for any deficiency, misstatement or inaccuracy contained in the report as a result of misstatements, omissions, misrepresentations or fraudulent acts of persons providing information.

c. Additional Involvement by Levelton: To avoid misunderstandings, Levelton should be retained to assist other professionals to explain relevant engineering findings and to review the geotechnical aspects of the plans, drawings and specifications of other professionals relative to the engineering issues pertaining to the geotechnical consulting services provided by Levelton. To ensure compliance and consistency with the applicable building codes, legislation, regulations, guidelines and generally-accepted practices, Levelton should also be retained to provide field review services during the performance of any related work. Where applicable, it is understood that such field review services must meet or exceed the minimum necessary requirements to ascertain that the work being carried out is in general conformity with the recommendations made by Levelton. Any reduction from the level of services recommended by Levelton will result in Levelton providing qualified opinions regarding adequacy of the work.

6. ALTERNATE REPORT FORMAT When Levelton submits both electronic and hard copy versions of the Instruments of Professional Services, the Client agrees that only the signed and sealed hard copy versions shall be considered final and legally binding upon Levelton. The hard copy versions submitted by Levelton shall be the original documents for record and working purposes, and, in the event of a dispute or discrepancy, the hard copy versions shall govern over the electronic versions; furthermore, the Client agrees and waives all future right of dispute that the original hard copy signed and sealed versions of the Instruments of Professional Services maintained or retained, or both, by Levelton shall be deemed to be the overall originals for the Project. The Client agrees that the electronic file and hard copy versions of Instruments of Professional Services shall not, under any circumstances, no matter who owns or uses them, be altered by any party except Levelton. The Client warrants that the Instruments of Professional Services will be used only and exactly as submitted by Levelton. The Client recognizes and agrees that Levelton prepared and submitted electronic files using specific software or hardware systems, or both. Levelton makes no representation about the compatibility of these files with the current or future software and hardware systems of the Client, the Approved Users or any other party. The Client further agrees that Levelton is under no obligation, unless otherwise expressly specified, to provide the Client, the Approved Users and any other party, or any or all of them, with specific software and hardware systems that are compatible with any electronic submitted by Levelton. The Client further agrees that should the Client, an Approved User or a third party require Levelton to provide specific software or hardware systems, or both, compatible with the electronic files prepared and submitted by Levelton, for any reason whatsoever included but not restricted to an order from a court, then the Client will pay Levelton for all reasonable costs related to the provision of the specific software or hardware systems, or both. The Client further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Levelton, its officers, directors, employees, agents, representative or sub-consultant, or any or all of them, against any claim or any nature whatsoever brought against Levelton, whether in contract or in tort, arising or related to the provision or use or any specific software or hardware provided by Levelton.
