Technical Specifications Summary: 69-Inch Siphon Rehabilitation Project
This document comprises technical specifications for protective coatings, linings, and steel pipe fabrication for the Provo River Water Users Association's 69-inch siphon rehabilitation project, issued by Bowen Collins and Associates. The project requires surface preparation and application of protective coatings to steel pipe, cement-mortar lining and field-applied coatings, welded joint fabrication and installation, and related appurtenances. The specifications call for Modified Polyamine Ceramic Epoxy coating (Tnemec 431 Perma-Shield PL) applied to interior surfaces of all pipe subject to immersion or raw water contact, with a minimum dry film thickness of 40 to 50 mils applied in multiple passes over near-white metal abrasive blast-cleaned surfaces with a 3.0 mil angular anchor profile. The project encompasses extensive quality assurance and testing requirements, including welder qualifications per AWS D1.1 and AWWA C206 standards, nondestructive testing of shop and field welds using radiographic and magnetic particle inspection methods, holiday testing of coatings using high-voltage spark testers, and hydrostatic pressure testing of completed pipe sections. Statements of Qualifications must be submitted by September 8, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. local time to Polo Su'a-Filo at sfs@prwua.org, with technical questions directed to the Engineer at regbert@bowencollins.co by September 7, 2026, at 4:00 p.m.
The specifications establish stringent environmental control requirements, including mandatory dehumidification equipment to maintain dew point temperatures 17 degrees Fahrenheit or more below metal surface temperatures and one air exchange per hour minimum ventilation during abrasive blasting and coating application and cure. The coating applicator and supervision personnel must have minimum five years' experience with the specified coating system and must be certified by the coating manufacturer, with all application personnel possessing minimum two years' practical experience. The contractor bears full responsibility for surface preparation, determining work effort and abrasive blast requirements regardless of prior preparation or coating history, and must schedule a minimum 14-day advance notice for engineer observations. A two-year warranty from both the contractor and coating manufacturer is required commencing from final work acceptance. All coatings must be supplied by a single manufacturer (Tnemec), with product substitutions prohibited without engineer approval. The specifications reference AWWA, NACE/AMPP, and SSPC standards as minimum industry standards and require ANSI/NSF certification for products in contact with potable water where applicable.
