About this file

This document is a specification for the Pinon Campground Lift Station project for Colorado Parks and Wildlife at Lathrop State Park. The project encompasses the design and installation of a wastewater lift station system with associated electrical, control, and monitoring components. The scope of work includes PVC pressure piping (ranging from 3/4" to 12"), system startup and training, pressure and leakage testing of force mains in accordance with AWWA standards, electrical installation and distribution, motor starters for duplex pumping units, low-voltage transformers, enclosed switches and circuit breakers, and a limited SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) monitoring system. The specifications detail comprehensive technical requirements for all mechanical and electrical components, including quality assurance procedures, testing protocols, and performance standards. The contractor is responsible for coordinating with utility companies, obtaining necessary permits and inspections, providing operator training, and conducting system demonstrations to ensure all equipment operates as designed.

The specifications establish detailed performance criteria and acceptance standards for all work, including pressure test requirements maintaining minimum test pressure within 5 psig for two hours, maximum allowable leakage calculations, and electrical system compliance with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) and applicable local codes. All materials must be new and listed or labeled by UL or recognized testing laboratories. The contractor must provide a one-year written warranty covering defective materials, equipment, and workmanship, with extended manufacturer warranties documented in operations and maintenance manuals. The contractor assumes all responsibility for field coordination with related trades, utility protection, and compliance with state and federal safety requirements. Shop drawings and submittals require engineer approval prior to material purchase, and the contractor must deliver completed project record documents, operations and maintenance manuals, and test reports upon project completion.

SECTION 01666

TESTING WASTEWATER PIPING SYSTEM

PART 1 - GENERAL

This section covers the pressure and leakage testing of force mains, performed in accordance with AWWA Standard C600 or C605.

1.02 REFERENCES

A. American Water Works Association, AWWA C600, AWWA Standard for Installation of Ductile- Iron Water Mains and Their Appurtences.

B. American Water Works Association, AWWA C605, Underground installation of Polyvinyl

Chloride (PVC) Pressure Pipe & Fittings for Water.

1.03 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. Pressure Test Criteria

1. The minimum test pressure shall not be less than the rated pressure class of the specified pipe. The test pressure shall not exceed the design pressure of the pipe, fittings, valves, or thrust restraints.

2. Once the line is pressurized to the specified test pressure, the line must maintain the test pressure within 5 psig for at least two (2) hours.

B. Leakage Test Criteria

1. A leakage test is to be conducted concurrently with the pressure test.

2. Leakage is the quantity of water that must be added to the section being tested in order to return the section to the test pressure at the conclusion of the pressure test.

3. No pipe installation will be accepted if the leakage is greater than that determined by the following formula;

L = SD (P1/2)

148,000

-- L = Maximum allowable leakage, in gallons per hour.

--- D = Nominal diameter of pipe being tested, in inches.

-- S = Length of pipe tested, in feet.

-- P = Test pressure (psig).

The formula is based on an allowable leakage of 10.5 gpd/mile/in of nominal diameter at a pressure of 150 psi.

4. When testing against metal seated valves, an additional allowance per closed valve of

0.0078 gph/in of nominal valve size shall be allowed.

5. When hydrants are in the test section, the test shall be made against closed hydrant valves.

112.88 01666 - 2 State Parks and Wildlife Lathrop State Park-Pinon Campground Lift Station

1.04 PERFORMANCE

A. Preparation and Testing:

1. Provide equipment, materials and personnel to maintain internal pipe pressure as required and accurately measure leakage from the pipe over a two (2) hour, minimum, test period.

2. Pressure and leakage tests shall take place only after the pipeline is adequately blocked or cast-in-place thrust blocks have had sufficient time to cure (3 day minimum).

3. After pipeline completion, conduct pressure test and leakage test concurrently.

4. When local conditions require that the trenches be backfilled immediately after the pipe has been laid, the testing may be carried out after backfilling has been completed but before placement of permanent surfacing.

4. If not already filled, slowly fill pipe with water.

5. Remove all air.

6. Install corporation cocks at high points to evacuate the air if permanent air vents are not located there. Remove and plug after filling.

7. Leave pipe filled with water for a minimum of 24 hours prior to the hydrostatic pressure test if mortar lined pipe is being tested.

8. No allowance shall be made for pressure reductions accomplished by means of pressure reducing valves or other mechanical means.

9. Record times, leakage readings and pressure over test period.

B. Inspection:

1. Notify ENGINEER at least 48 hours in advance of testing.

2. ENGINEER or representative must be present during testing.

C. Acceptance:

1. Acceptance shall be on the basis of maximum allowable leakage, and ability to maintain target psi for 2 hours.

2. Contractor shall, at his own expense, locate and repair the defects and retest the line until it meets specified test.

3. Repeat tests until the leakage is within the permitted allowance.

4. All visible leaks are to be repaired, regardless of the amount of leakage.
