2-ARV Detail S-25.pdf Summary

This is a project detail specification document for the Beaufort-Jasper Water and Sewer Authority (BJWSA) in South Carolina related to Air Release Valve (ARV) relocation work under Capital Improvement Project CIP-2339. The project encompasses the replacement of approximately 17 existing ARV assemblies located throughout the service area. Work scope includes removal of existing ARV assemblies from manhole vaults, replacement of existing tapping saddles with new SS316 stainless steel tapping saddles, removal of manhole cones, backfilling with BJWSA-approved select fill material, installation of contractor-supplied new ARV pedestals, and site restoration. All new ARVs must be installed on 3-foot by 3-foot concrete pads positioned no less than 6 inches above the ground surface to meet operational and safety standards.

The specification document establishes technical requirements and installation standards for the ARV replacement work, ensuring consistency and quality across all 17 locations. The project requires contractors to supply the new ARV pedestals and coordinate all materials with BJWSA specifications and approvals. The document provides detailed installation parameters and site restoration expectations to ensure proper functionality of the air release valves within the water system infrastructure and maintains compliance with BJWSA engineering and construction standards.
