About this file
This is a technical specifications document prepared by Civil West Engineering Services, Inc. for the Oregon Department of Forestry in Clackamas County, Oregon, detailing construction requirements for the Molalla Storm Water Drain System Rehabilitation project (Project No. 2413-002), scheduled for June 2026. The work encompasses approximately 1,080 lineal feet of new PVC storm drain pipe in varying sizes (18-inch, 15-inch, 12-inch, and 8-inch), along with associated construction activities including roadway excavation, pipe bedding and backfill with compaction, AC trench patching, swale and basin excavation, and construction of storm drain structures such as manholes, area drains, inlets, and bubbler outlets. The project also includes utility crossings, connections to existing infrastructure, landscaping, site remediation, and miscellaneous completion items. Work shall not commence until the Engineer issues a Notice to Proceed, and the Contractor is responsible for construction staking, material delivery coordination, protection of existing improvements, and restoration of damaged items at no additional cost to the Owner.
The specifications establish comprehensive requirements for quality control, submittals, scheduling, traffic regulation, erosion and sediment control, and warranty provisions. The Contractor must furnish all labor, equipment, and materials; secure all required permits including City Grading/Excavation, City Right-of-Way, Civil Construction/Public Works, and DEQ 1200C permits; provide a one-year warranty bond equal to 5% of the project value; and maintain continuous dewatering and erosion control throughout construction. Monthly progress payments will be made based on percentage of work completion as verified by the Engineer, with retainage withheld in accordance with the General and Supplementary General Conditions. The Contractor assumes full responsibility for protecting existing utilities and structures, coordinating with local affected businesses and utility providers, managing traffic control in compliance with Oregon Temporary Traffic Control Handbook standards, and completing all work within the contracted time frame with no extensions granted for material delivery delays or other contractor-caused issues.
