Conaway Drainge II Emergency_TYPICAL Safety Fence Wooden_2026.04.09.pdf

This is a specification and safety requirements document for the Conaway Drainage II Project, a state and local contract opportunity in Virginia administered in Buchanan County. The project involves emergency restoration of two Priority 1 features: a Landslide (LS) feature located 1.7 miles south of US Highway 460 at 1020 Cinnamon Road and a Flooding (FLD) feature located 1.2 miles south of US Highway 460 at 2221 Conaway Road (VA 610), both in Big Rock, Virginia 24603. The selected contractor must furnish all equipment, labor, materials, and resources necessary for the emergency restoration work. The project is located directly behind occupied residences, requiring strict adherence to safety protocols and site management procedures.

The document establishes comprehensive safety requirements including the installation and maintenance of a typical wooden safety fence to protect the public and adjacent properties during emergency restoration activities. The specifications detail fence construction standards, materials, dimensions, and installation requirements specific to the site conditions and hazard mitigation objectives. The wooden safety fence serves as a critical containment and warning barrier given the proximity of the work to occupied residential structures and the emergency nature of the landslide and flooding conditions that necessitate immediate remedial action.
