Any external excavation and restoration for side connection reinstatement will be done entirely at the installer's cost unless previously approved by the County. Cuts shall be neat and smooth with the service line opened to ninety-five (95) percent of the inside diameter to prevent blockages, and the bottom of both openings must match. The edges of the opening shall not have pipe fragments or liner fragments, which may obstruct flow or snag debris. All over-cut service connections will be properly repaired to meet the requirements of these specifications.

c. In the event that service reinstatements result in openings that are greater than 100 percent of the service connection opening, the Contractor shall install a CIPP type repair, sufficiently in size to completely cover the over- cut service connection.

No additional compensation will be paid for the repair of over-cut service connections.

d. All cuttings and coupons of pipe material resulting from service tap cutting shall be recovered at the downstream manhole of the pipe rehabilitation operation prior to leaving the site and putting the main line back in service. Coupons may not be allowed to pass through the system.

e. The Contractor shall stop all visible service line leaks and seal each service lateral connection to the new liner with a chemical sealant compatible with liner material.

The chemical sealant shall be injected using standard packer device and equipment to create a watertight seal at each connection. The cost of service lateral connection grouting is included in the cost of the service connection reinstatement.

f. In the event reconnection within the pipe cannot be accomplished or failure occurs during the reconnection process, the Contractor may be permitted to excavate, at the Contractor’s expense, and reconnect to the existing main using an approved sewer saddle.

g. Due to the critical nature of service reconnection, the Contractor shall keep backup robotic equipment on site to eliminate any delay to the reactivation of service to customers. This specification shall also apply to the Pay Item to grinding and sealing existing service openings on previously lined pipe.
