About this file

This document contains a potholing report and related federal contract opportunity. The potholing report details utility locating and potholing services performed at the Benton St/VA Loma Linda Parking Structure project site in Loma Linda, California. Three potholes were excavated to identify underground utilities, including a 6-inch PVC pipe at 51 inches depth, a 12-inch concrete pipe at 85 inches depth, a water line at 40 inches depth, steel pipes at 66 and 62 inches depth. Maps and data sheets describe the excavation locations and utility findings.

The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number 36C77623B0072 for parking structure construction at the Loma Linda VAMC. The solicitation seeks offers for construction of a new parking structure with a response due date of an unspecified year. The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center in Austin is the contracting agency. No further details are provided on pricing, terms, or awardees.

DESCRIPTION OF POTHOLE PROCEDURES

AIRX Utility Surveyors performs a full range of specialized engineering services including Underground Utility Location and Vacuum Excavation (to verify depth and alignment of underground utilities).

Underground Utility Location employs sophisticated electronic locating devices to trace the route of an underground utility; then the route is marked on the surface with marking paint in paved areas, or with 60 penny nails and feathers in unpaved areas.

Vacuum excavation employs a vacuum truck in conjunction with high-pressure air or water to excavate material and expose an underground utility. An 8-inch diameter hole is first cored through the pavement so that the vacuum hose and high-pressure air or water hose can be inserted.

Utilities found during potholing are located on the surface by placing two reference points (typically 36” apart) on either side of the pothole along the centerline (or edge) of the utility, using paving nails or 60 penny nails as appropriate. Depth measurements (to the nearest ½ inch) are taken midway between the two reference points.

Utility alignment, depth, and other data is marked with pink paint (on pavement), or on wood lath (unpaved areas).

SITE SPECIFIC DETAILS

AIRX was contracted by Calibre Engineering to perform utility locating and potholing services on Benton St/VA Loma Linda Parking Structure in Loma Linda, California. A total of 3 potholes were excavated to establish conflicts and connection points on a variety of utilities. The results of the data are contained in the attached spreadsheet and data sheets.

In preparation of these excavations, AIRX marked out the dig locations and called in for USA (Underground Service Alert).

All the excavations and discovery went without any incident. Any changes and adjustments are mentioned in the Pothole Tabulation Report and the Pothole Data Sheets. All the results were annotated on the ground and in this report. It is AIRX’s recommendation that all pothole locations and the active mark out should be surveyed to aid in the adjustment of utilities on the final plan and profile.

At each pothole location, the utility alignment was marked with paint. AIRX used potable water acquired offsite for excavation and all water and material vacuumed was disposed of off-site. No water was allowed to flow into storm drains or natural drainages. The potholes were covered with clean backfill material and compacted to 95% density in 3” lifts. All field work was performed on May 2, 2023.
