PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 RELATED DOCUMENTS

A. Drawings and general provisions of Contract, including General and Supplementary

Conditions apply to this Section.

1.2 SECTION 011000 - SUMMARY OF WORK

A. Project Description:

1. The work to be done under this contract includes all labor, supervision, transportation, equipment, tools, supplies, and materials necessary to install a 20’ long by 60” diameter government furnished HDPE culvert with collar. The culvert is to be attached to an existing culvert of same dimensions. There is a weir and catch basin at the end of the existing culvert that will need to be relocated to the end of the new pipe install. The catch basin is buried underneath the lip of the existing culvert. The weir will need to be hooked back up to the downstream pipe network.

2. Note: The water flowing out of Moran Tunnel is highly toxic. Mitigations for safety must be in place before and during contract work.

1.4 SECTION 014000 - REFERENCE STANDARDS AND DEFINITIONS

A. Specification Format and Content Explanation:

1. Specification Format: These Specifications are organized into Divisions and

Sections based on the Construction Specifications Institute's 16-Division format and MASTERFORMAT numbering system.

2. Specification Content: This Specification uses certain conventions in the use of language and the intended meaning of certain terms, words, and phrases when used in particular situations or circumstances. These conventions are explained as follows:

a. Abbreviated Language: Language used in Specifications and other Contract

Documents is the abbreviated type. Words and meanings shall be interpreted as appropriate. Words that are implied, but not stated shall be interpolated as the sense required. Singular words will be interpreted as plural and plural words interpreted as singular where applicable and the context of the Contract Documents so indicates.

b. Imperative and streamlined language is used generally in the Specifications.

Requirements expressed in the imperative mood are to be performed by the

Contractor. At certain locations in the text, for clarity, subjective language is used to describe responsibilities that must be fulfilled indirectly by the

Contractor, or by others when so noted.

1) The words "shall be" shall be included by inference wherever a colon

(:) is used within a sentence or phrase.

B. Industry Standards:

1. Applicability of Standards: Except where the Contract Documents include more stringent requirements, applicable construction industry standards have the same force and effect as if bound or copied directly into the Contract Documents to the

MORAN TUNNEL PIPE INSTALLATION 01 00 00 - 3

extent referenced. Such standards are made a part of the Contract Documents by reference.

2. Publication Dates: Comply with the standard in effect as of the date of the

Contract Documents.

3. Conflicting Requirements: Where compliance with two or more standards is specified, and the standards may establish different or conflicting requirements for minimum quantities or quality levels. Refer requirements that are different, but apparently equal, and uncertainties to the Contracting Officer for a decision before proceeding.

a. Minimum Quantity or Quality Levels: The quantity or quality level shown or specified shall be the minimum provided or performed. The actual installation may comply exactly with the minimum quantity or quality specified, or it may exceed the minimum within reasonable limits. In complying with these requirements, indicated numeric values are minimum or maximum, as appropriate for the context of the requirements. Refer uncertainties to the Contracting Officer for a decision before proceeding.

4. Copies of Standards: Each entity engaged in construction on the Project is required to be familiar with industry standards applicable to that entity's construction activity. Copies of applicable standards are not bound with the

Contract Documents.

a. Where copies of standards are needed for performance of a required construction activity, the Contractor shall obtain copies directly from the publication source.

5. Abbreviations and Names: Trade association names and titles of general standards are frequently abbreviated. Where such acronyms or abbreviations are used in the Specifications or other Contract Documents, they mean the recognized name of the trade association, standards generating organization, authority having jurisdiction, or other entity applicable to the context of the text provision. Refer to the "Encyclopedia of Associations," published by Gale Research Co., available in most libraries.

C. Submittals:

1. Permits, Licenses, and Certificates: For the Government’s records, submit copies of permits, licenses, certifications, inspection reports, releases, jurisdictional settlements, notices, receipts for fee payments, judgments, and similar documents, correspondence, and records established in conjunction with compliance with standards and regulations bearing upon performance of the Work.
