Construction Specification 21—Excavation

1. Scope The work shall consist of the excavation required by the drawings and specifications and disposal of the excavated materials.

2. Classification Excavation is classified as common excavation, rock excavation, or unclassified excavation in accordance with the following definitions.

Common excavation is defined as the excavation of all materials that can be excavated, transported, and unloaded using heavy ripping equipment and wheel tractor-scrapers with pusher tractors or that can be excavated and dumped into place or loaded onto hauling equipment by excavators having a rated capacity of one cubic yard or larger and equipped with attachments (shovel, bucket, backhoe, dragline, or clam shell) appropriate to the material type, character, and nature of the materials.

Rock excavation is defined as the excavation of all hard, compacted, or cemented materials that require blasting or the use of ripping and excavating equipment larger than defined for common excavation. The excavation and removal of isolated boulders or rock fragments larger than 1 cubic yard encountered in materials otherwise conforming to the definition of common excavation shall be classified as rock excavation. The presence of isolated boulders or rock fragments larger than 1 cubic yard is not in itself sufficient cause to change the classification of the surrounding material.

For the purpose of these classifications, the following definitions shall apply:

Heavy ripping equipment is a rear-mounted, heavy duty, single-tooth, ripping attachment mounted on a track type tractor having a power rating of at least 250 flywheel horsepower unless otherwise specified in section 10.

Wheel tractor-scraper is a self-loading (not elevating) and unloading scraper having a struck bowl capacity of at least 12 cubic yards.

Pusher tractor is a track type tractor having a power rating of at least 250 flywheel horsepower equipped with appropriate attachments.

Unclassified excavation is defined as the excavation of all materials encountered, including rock materials, regardless of their nature or the manner in which they are removed.

3. Blasting The transportation, handling, storage, and use of dynamite and other explosives shall be directed and supervised by a person(s) of proven experience and ability who is authorized and qualified to conduct blasting operations.

Blasting shall be done in a manner as to prevent damage to the work or unnecessary fracturing of the underlying rock materials and shall conform to any special requirements in section 10 of this specification. When specified in section 10, the contractor shall furnish the engineer, in writing, a

21-2 blasting plan before blasting operations begin.

4. Use of excavated material Method 1—To the extent they are needed, all suitable material from the specified excavations shall be used in the construction of required permanent earthfill or rockfill. The suitability of material for specific purposes is determined by the engineer. The contractor shall not waste or otherwise dispose of suitable excavated material.

Method 2—Suitable material from the specified excavations may be used in the construction of required earthfill or rockfill. The suitability of material for specific purposes is determined by the engineer.

5. Disposal of waste materials Method 1—All surplus or unsuitable excavated materials are designated as waste and shall be disposed of at the locations shown on the drawings.

Method 2—All surplus or unsuitable excavated materials are designated as waste and shall be disposed of by the contractor at sites of his own choosing away from the site of the work. The disposal shall be in an environmentally acceptable manner that does not violate local rules and regulations.

6. Excavation limits Excavations shall comply with OSHA Construction Industry Standards (29CFR Part 1926) Subpart P, Excavations, Trenching, and Shoring. All excavations shall be completed and maintained in a safe and stable condition throughout the total construction phase. Structure and trench excavations shall be completed to the specified elevations and to the length and width required to safely install, adjust, and remove any forms, bracing, or supports necessary for the installation of the work. Excavations outside the lines and limits shown on the drawings or specified herein required to meet safety requirements shall be the responsibility of the contractor in constructing and maintaining a safe and stable excavation.

7. Borrow excavation When the quantities of suitable material obtained from specified excavations are insufficient to construct the specified earthfills and earth backfills, additional material shall be obtained from the designated borrow areas. The extent and depth of borrow pits within the limits of the designated borrow areas shall be as specified in section 10 or as approved by the engineer.

Borrow pits shall be excavated and finally dressed to blend with the existing topography and sloped to prevent ponding and to provide drainage.

8. Overexcavation Excavation in rock beyond the specified lines and grades shall be corrected by filling the resulting voids with portland cement concrete made of materials and mix proportions approved by the engineer. Concrete that will be exposed to the atmosphere when construction is completed shall meet the requirements of concrete selected for use under Construction Specification 31, Concrete for Major Structures, or 32, Structure Concrete, as appropriate.

Concrete that will be permanently covered shall contain not less than five bags of cement per cubic yard. The concrete shall be placed and cured as specified by the engineer.

21-3

Excavation in earth beyond the specified lines and grades shall be corrected by filling the resulting voids with approved, compacted earthfill. The exception to this is that if the earth is to become the subgrade for riprap, rockfill, sand or gravel bedding, or drainfill, the voids may be filled with material conforming to the specifications for the riprap, rockfill, bedding, or drainfill.

Before correcting an overexcavation condition, the contractor shall review the planned corrective action with the engineer and obtain approval of the corrective measures.

9. Measurement and payment For items of work for which specific unit prices are established in the contract, the volume of each type and class of excavation within the specified pay limits is measured and computed to the nearest cubic yard by the method of average cross-sectional end areas or by methods outlined in section 10 of this specification. Regardless of quantities excavated, the measurement for payment is made to the specified pay limits except that excavation outside the specified lines and grades directed by the engineer to remove unsuitable material is included. Excavation required because unsuitable conditions result from the contractor's improper construction operations, as determined by the engineer, is not included for measurement and payment.

All Methods—The following provisions apply to all methods of measurement and payment. Compensation for any item of work described in the contract but not listed in the bid schedule is included in the payment for the item of work to which it is made subsidiary. Such items and the items to which they are made subsidiary are identified in section 7.

7. Items of work and construction details Items of work to be performed in conformance with this specification and construction details are:

A. Bid Item 3 - Seeding and Mulching

1. This item consists of furnishing all labor, equipment, materials, for placing fertilizer, preparing the seedbed, seeding, and mulching all reconstructed levees and structure sites as specified on the plans and drawings.

2. Time of Seeding Seeding shall be completed during one of the following time periods:

PERMANENT SEEDING DATES:

Late Spring – June 5th

DORMANT SEEDING DATES:

November 15 – Freeze Up

Temporary Seeding shall be used if permanent seeding cannot be used due to seeding date restriction.

Fertilizer

The following minimum amounts of fertilizer are required per acre on all areas to be seeded:

Permanent Seeding:

Nitrogen (N) - 120 pounds/acre of actual Nitrogen Phosphorous (P) - 120 pounds/acre of P205 Potassium (K) - 120 pounds/acre of K20

Temporary Seeding:

Nitrogen (N) - 60 pounds/acre of actual Nitrogen Phosphorous (P) - 60 pounds/acre of P205

6-4

Potassium (K) - 60 pounds/acre of K20

3. Seed Seed shall have the equivalent of a minimum of 80% pure live seed. When the percentage of purity multiplied by the percentage of germination gives a percentage of pure live seed less than stated above, the rate of seeding will be increased proportionally.

Calculate as follows:

PLS = % germination x % purity

• PLS = Pure Live Seed - To determine PLS of a lot of seed, multiply the percent germination times percent purity. To determine total seed needed, divide lb. PLS required by percent PLS.

Permanent Seeding mixture and rate per acre are as follows:

Redtop 8 lbs. PLS Per acre

Temporary Seeding mixture and rate per acre are as follows:

Cereal Rye - 20 lbs. PLS Per acre

4. Sowing the Seed Seeding will be carried out using either of the following classes:

Class 1 - The seed will be drilled approximately ¼ to ½ inch deep and cultipacked or rolled once over with a corrugated roller on all areas where equipment can be operated safely.

Seeding operations will be across the slope.

Class 2 - The seed will be broadcast and covered with a roller of cultipacker, or a cultipacker seeder shall be used.

Class 3 - The seed will be seeded with a hydraulic seeder using no less than 1,000 gallons of water per acre. The water shall contain the proper quantity of seed to meet the specified seeding rate per acre. Immediately after seeding, all areas where equipment can be operated safely shall be rolled across the slope with a suitable roller of cultipacker.

On other areas too steep or otherwise inaccessible to equipment, the seed shall be covered with a light harrow or other suitable equipment.

5. The mulch shall consist of bright small grain straw free of noxious weed seed and uniformly applied at a rate of two tons air dry material per acre. This is equivalent to an application rate of 90 lb/1000 sq. ft.

6. Straw mulch shall be anchored by Class A as specified.

Class A - Straight Serrated Disk - The mulch shall be anchored with an anchoring tool that has serrated straight disks that punches mulch into the ground at a depth of approximately 2 inches. The operation shall be performed perpendicular to the direction of the slope.

Practice Specification Wetland Restoration (Code 657)

Scope

The work consists of excavation and earthfill, along with furnishing and installing pipe and appurtenances for the wetland restoration as shown on the drawings and specified herein.

Utilities

The landowner and/or contractor is responsible for locating all buried utilities in the project area, including drainage tile and other structural measures. The landowner will obtain all necessary permissions from regulatory agencies, or document that no permits are required.

General

Carry out construction operations in a manner and sequence that erosion, air and water pollution are minimized and held within legal limits.

The completed job must present a workmanlike appearance and conform to the line, grades, and elevations shown on the drawings or as staked in the field.

Carry out all operations in a safe and skillful manner. Observe safety and health regulations and use appropriate safety measures. Contractor must assure that all state laws concerning buried utilities have been met.

Save documentation of materials used (rock or concrete delivery tickets, geotextile tags, seed tags, photographs of pipe labeling, etc) and provide to NRCS.

Remove all trees, stumps, roots, brush, weeds, and other objectionable materials from work area as designated in the drawings.

Strip designated locations for excavation and earthfill of all vegetation and topsoil containing substantial amounts of organic matter. Stockpile topsoil for use to finish areas disturbed by the construction, embankment slopes, and other required topsoil areas (if the percentage of organic materials is not too great).

Excavation

To the extent they are suitable and approved by the inspector, excavated materials are to be used as fill materials.

Place, spread, level, or shape excess spoil material as shown on the construction drawings or as staked in the field. Spoil material must not be spread on existing wetland areas. The completed job must be finished to a degree so the surface can be traveled with farm-type equipment unless otherwise specified in the construction plans.

All excavations must conform to the lines, grades, elevations, bottom width, and side slopes shown on the construction plans or as staked in the field.

The location, extent, and depth of the borrow area must conform to the construction plans or as staked in the field. Borrow must not be taken within 10 feet of the embankment unless shown on the drawings.

Excavate and dress borrow pits in a manner to eliminate steep or unstable side slopes or other hazardous conditions. Side slopes of borrow pits must be no steeper than 3:1 or as specified on the construction plans. Grade and shape surfaces of the borrow pits outside of the wetland area to prevent the ponding of water unless otherwise shown in the construction plans.

Existing Subsurface Drains

Remove subsurface drains as shown on the drawings. Remove all envelope, filter material or other flow-enhancing material. Fill trench in 12 inch lifts of similar soils and compact to achieve a density equal to the adjacent natural soils.

NRCS, IL SPECIFICATION - Page 1 of 2 April 2017

Block the ends of abandoned and disconnected drains with manufactured caps or plugs, plug with concrete, or otherwise seal and make inoperable such that the water holding integrity of the wetland is not impaired.

Existing drains found during construction and not identified on the construction plans must be brought to the attention of the NRCS inspector.

Earthfill

Scarify the foundation area where the embankment is to be built to a minimum depth of 4 inches before the fill material is placed, so that the first layer of fill material can be bonded to the foundation.

Fill material must be free of detrimental amounts of sod, roots, frozen soil, stones more than 6 inches in diameter, and other objectionable material that might endanger the performance of the embankment. The moisture content of the fill material must be sufficient to permit satisfactory compaction. Moisture content can generally be considered satisfactory if fill material can be molded into a ball with the hands without readily separating or squeezing out free water, and will easily ribbon out between the thumb and finger.

Material that is too wet must be dried and material that is too dry must have water added and mixed until the requirements are met.

Place and spread fill starting at the lowest point of the foundation and bring fill up in horizontal layers not to exceed 9 inches in thickness prior to compaction. Compact each lift by routing hauling equipment over the fill in such a manner that the entire surface will be traversed by not less than one wheel track.

The completed work must conform to the lines, grades, and elevations shown on the construction drawings or as staked in the field.

Vegetation

Add topsoil, if needed to establish vegetation. Establish a protective cover of vegetation on all exposed surfaces of the embankment, spillway, outlet channel, and borrow areas exposed above the permanent waterline and non-crop areas disturbed by construction, as specified in the construction plans. Establish vegetation as soon after construction as possible.
