PART 3 - EXECUTION

3.01 REPAIR OF WORK AND MATERIAL: Carefully lay out cutting, channeling, chasing, or drilling of finish or structure or other surfaces for the installation of equipment or material to avoid damaging Government property or adjacent materials not involved in the project. If Contractor personnel or equipment inadvertently damage such items, then follow the procedures below. Failure to follow the notification procedures below shall be considered a serious violation of the contract.

A. Notify the Contracting Officer by telephone immediately and confirm within 3 days with a typed letter if damage to Government property occurs. The Government reserves the right to require the Contractor to work overtime and purchase material for repair before the end of the workday at no additional cost to the Government.

B. Repair damage to building or equipment to match existing as directed by the Contracting Officer with skilled workmen of the trades involved at no additional cost to the Government.

C. Repair Fire Resistant Assemblies that have been violated before the end of the day. In the event the work is incomplete, provide fire-rated gypsum board to cover holes 2-inch and greater in any dimension.

D. Reconnect Disconnected Equipment before the end of the day and insure that it is operating.

E. Existing Equipment and Material to remain or to be relocated is the property of the Government.

However, the Contractor is responsible for items to remain.

F. Labels on equipment plates with information shall be properly protected before any operation that could damage or cover the label.

G. Fire Alarm: This contract involves work requiring existing fire alarm equipment either to remain or to be removed and reinstalled. The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of the inspection forms in the Appendix at the end of this section. One form is to notify the appropriate personnel that work is being accomplished on fire alarm systems. The other two forms are used to establish the conditions of the system components prior to and following the contractor’s work.

3.02 IDENTIFYING UNDERGROUND LINES AND STRUCTURES:

A. Regardless of statements in other Spec sections, provide tracer wires and warning tapes over buried underground utilities and structures. Follow these requirements if the other Spec sections are less detailed and stringent.

SECTION 01 04 00 – Page 3

B. These include all underground items such as utility lines, oil/water separators, fuel and water storage tanks, and utility pits and manholes with tops below grade.

C. Provide a warning tape of standard industrial width and thickness with imprinted words identifying the type of utility line or structure below it. Place along the length (and width if not a utility line) of the protected item at one-foot depth below grade.

D. For buried non-metallic lines and structures also provide a tracer wire placed just above them, so conventional locating equipment may be used to locate the lines or structures. These items may be made of plastic, fiberglass, or similar non-metallic material. Design basis of the tracer wire is BMS Heavy Tracer Wire by Utilitronics, PO Box 480, Stoughton, MA 02072 - phone 1-800-245-8850.
