About this file
This is a technical specification document for storm drainage infrastructure components issued by a Pennsylvania jurisdiction for the Whistlestop Park project. The specification section 33 44 14 details the installation requirements for storm inlets, catch basins, endwalls, end sections, and outlet control structures as part of the park's stormwater management system. The work includes precast concrete units, cast-in-place construction, and associated drainage components that must comply with Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Publication 408 Specifications and Publication #72 standards. Acceptable manufacturers for precast structures include Monarch Precast Concrete Corporation and Modern Concrete Septic Tank Company, while frames and grates must be sourced from Neenah Foundry Company, E.A. Quirin Machine Shop, Inc., or East Jordan Iron Works, Inc., or approved equivalents. Detailed shop drawings showing inlet units, endwalls, end sections, and reinforcing steel details must be submitted for approval prior to fabrication and delivery.
Construction requirements specify that precast units must be placed on a 12-inch coarse aggregate subbase compacted to 95 percent of dry weight density, while cast-in-place units are constructed on undisturbed earth. Materials must comply with American Society for Testing and Materials standards for structural steel, malleable and ductile iron castings, brick, and concrete specifications detailed in Section 03 30 53. Pipe projections into inlets are limited to a maximum of 2 inches, and pipe ends must not be exposed through endwall faces. All excavation, backfilling, and compaction work must be performed in accordance with related sections 31 23 33 and 31 37 16, with the Resident Project Representative required to examine structures prior to backfill operations. The specification ties directly to the broader Whistlestop Park project with a bid submission deadline of April 30, 2026, and requires performance, payment, and maintenance bonds upon contract award.
