If it is necessary to cut off power in transmission lines that pass through construction areas, it shall be the Contractor's responsibility to make the necessary arrangements with the owner of the powerline, and the Contractor shall pay all costs therefore.
1.3.2 Flood Protection Works
In all cases where materials in the existing flood protection works are used or connected with the construction of new work under this contract, the work shall be so planned and executed that the new work shall be completed to provide protection equivalent to the existing protection as the existing protection is weakened or removed. These operating restrictions shall be followed in order that the new work may be tied in, or connected promptly, by the Contractor, with the existing facilities so as to furnish a continuous service in an emergency. These ties or connections shall be made during periods of suspended construction operations and the Contractor shall leave incompleted pipe outlets and other structures in such conditions as to not interfere with the natural drainage from areas served by these pipes or structures.

SECTION 01 12 00 Page 3
1.6 COOPERATION WITH OTHER CONTRACTORS
The Contractor shall cooperate and coordinate work with that of others working in the area during the life of this contract. The Contractor shall coordinate work with others to avoid undue interference and shall conduct operations, other than approved required access, within the limits of the assigned construction area or construction right-of-way limits.
The Contractor shall cooperate with others as necessary in the interest of timely completion of all work and in the event of disagreement the decision of the Contracting Officer shall be final.
1.7 ORDER OF WORK
All Hydraulic Power Units (HPU) and associated equipment are required to be fabricated, factory tested, and delivered onsite before any outage can occur. Exception will be any components that require final machining to finished dimensions after existing equipment is removed for dimension verification (i.e. trunnion bearings, BFV operator crank, ect).
Order of work is at Contractor's discretion. Paragraph 1.8 below details outage coordination requirements. Sequence of work should be prioritized to minimize outages. Priority should be placed on limiting the outage period for the flood tunnel and penstocks.
1.8 COORDINATION AND OUTAGES
The Contractor's employees shall not open, close or tamper with switches, valves or control devices for existing installed equipment. Only Government operating personnel will be authorized to open or close existing switches, valves and control devices to enable the Contractor to make connections or modifications to existing equipment. Work shall be coordinated and scheduled to reduce the "Outage" time of operating equipment or systems to a minimum. Work in the proximity of exposed energized equipment such as in the switchyard or work involving connections to existing energized or operating equipment or systems shall perform only under the Safe Clearance Procedures. The Contractor will be instructed by the Contracting Officer in the proper procedure for requesting clearances. Only qualified supervisory personnel will be permitted to request clearances. Request for "Outage" shall be made by the Contractor to the Contracting Officer in each instance and in sufficient time to permit adjusting power plant operations, and to coordinate outages with the dispatching agency. Request for outage must be submitted a minimum 21 days prior to the date of outage start date.
Scheduling of "Outage" will be subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer.
Proposed tunnel outage is from 16 September 2024 to 10 February 2025, and is for both Unit inlet butterfly valves to be refurbished simultaneously.
1.9 Early Onsite Work Window
Powerhouse 2, Unit 4 will be offline for maintenance from 11 Sep 2023 - 29 Sep 2023; and Unit 5 will be offline for maintenance from 16 Oct 2023 - 3 Nov 2023. These two units are not open at the same time. The butterfly valves will be in a closed position during this maintenance outage to
SECTION 01 12 00 Page 4 unwater the scroll case. The tunnel upstream of the butterfly valves will not be unwatered. The scroll case access door will be opened to provide the contractor access to perform inspections and take measurements inside the scroll case and penstock downstream of the butterfly valve. Access up to the downstream face of the closed butterfly valve will be limited due to leakage past the closed butterfly valve, making conditions unsafe for personnel to approach any closer than approx. 10 feet. Contractor will coordinate with the COR to be given access to conduct the following:
1. General visual inspection and condition assessment of the work areas inside the scroll case, penstock, and access door.
2. Visual inspection and qualitative assessment of butterfly valve internal leakage locations and pattern (see Section 22 00 00.00 26 for requirements)"
