About this file
This is a General Requirements specification document for the Pond Improvements project at Cadillac Drive & RJ Conlan in Florida. The specification establishes minimum standards of quality and coordination requirements for the contractor performing work on this project. Key requirements include that the contractor must perform all necessary cutting, fitting, and patching to integrate project components with other work, obtain written consent from the Engineer before altering work of others, and arrange for and pay all costs associated with testing laboratory services. The contractor is responsible for providing temporary facilities including water supply, sanitary facilities, noise control measures, dust control measures, and water management systems, with all associated applications, fees, and maintenance costs borne by the contractor.
The specification requires the contractor to develop and submit a water disposal plan to the Engineer for approval prior to implementation and to obtain proper authorization from relevant authorities before using public or private lands for disposal purposes. Pollution and erosion control requirements are extensive, mandating that the contractor prevent contamination of private lands, bodies of water, and streams through proper management of materials including fuels, oils, and other harmful substances. The contractor must minimize exposure of uncompleted work to elements, construct erosion control features concurrently with other work, and ensure mold and mildew remediation including testing, cleaning, and retesting before facility closure. All materials and testing must conform to the latest standards and codes adopted on or before the date of advertisement for bids.

Cutting and Patching:
1.1 The Contractor shall do all cutting, fitting and patching of his work that may be required to make its several parts come together properly and integrate with such other work. The Contractor shall not endanger any work of others by cutting, excavating or otherwise altering their work and will only cut or alter their work with the written consent of the Engineer and the others whose work will be affected.

Temporary Sanitary Facilities:
3.2 The Contractor shall provide adequate sanitary facilities for the use of those employed on the work site. Such facilities shall be made available when the first employees arrive on the site of the work, shall be properly secluded from public observation, and shall be constructed and maintained during the progress of the work in suitable numbers and at such points and in such manner as may be required.
The Contractor shall maintain the sanitary facilities in a satisfactory and sanitary condition at all times and shall enforce their use. He shall rigorously prohibit the committing of nuisances on the site of the work, on the lands of the City or on adjacent property.
The City shall have the right to inspect such facilities at all times to determine whether or not they are being properly and adequately maintained.
Noise Control:
3.3 The Contractor shall provide adequate protection against objectionable noise levels caused by the operation of construction equipment.
Dust Control:
3.4 The Contractor shall provide for adequate protection against raising objectionable dust clouds caused by moving construction equipment, high winds or any other cause.
Water Control:
3.5 The Contractor shall provide for satisfactory disposal of surplus water and shall submit a plan to the Engineer for his review prior to initiation and implementation of the plan. Prior approval shall be obtained from the proper authorities for the use of public or private lands or facilities for such disposal.

He shall conduct and schedule his operations so as to avoid or otherwise minimize pollution or siltation of streams, lakes and reservoirs and to avoid interference with movement of migratory fish. Where there is a high potential for erosion and subsequent water pollution, the Contractor shall not expose, by construction operations, except as necessary for efficient construction operations, and the duration of exposure of the uncompleted construction to the elements shall be as short as practicable.
Erosion control features shall be constructed concurrently with other work and at the earliest practicable time.
Contractor will take all steps necessary to ensure mold and mildew are cleared prior to closing in the facility. This should include any testing, cleaning, and retesting of the facility.
