2 Eliminate the western row of parking at both levels; reduce service yard and rock excavation

A Parking Structure is to be an underground facility, beneath CEAC, and will be restricted to authorized personnel only.

Per the DD1391, the parking structure is to accommodate 450 parking spaces.

Entry is from the south, and the parking structure is arrayed as four bays, laid out in an east-west orientation, laid out over two levels. Each bay on each floor maintains approximately 30 spaces. The parking structure supports CEAC, the plaza in front of CEAC, and the service yard behind the building.

The western-most bay of the parking garage on both levels is to be deleted, reducing 60 parking stalls and reducing the volume of rock to be cut from the hillside and associated rock stabilization measures. MEP & FP systems will be reduced accordingly. Site work changes include alterations of the service yard access route., and reduction of the east-west width of the service yard.

1.8 EXISTING WORK

In addition to FAR 52.236-9 Protection of Existing Vegetation, Structures, Equipment, Utilities, and Improvements:

a. Remove or alter existing work in such a manner as to prevent injury or damage to any portions of the existing work which remain.

b. Repair or replace portions of existing work which have been altered during construction operations to match existing or adjoining work, as approved by the Contracting Officer. At the completion of operations, existing work must be in a condition equal to or better than that which existed before new work started.

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 6

c. At Contractor's own expense, Contractor shall immediately restore to service and repair any damage caused by Contractor's workmen to the existing piping and conduits, wires, cables, etc., of utility services or of fire protection systems and communications systems (including telephone) for those items not identified to be demolished or altered under this project.

d. The Contractor shall repair any damage to those facilities, including those that are the property of a third party, resulting from failure to comply with the requirements of this contract or failure to exercise reasonable care in performing the work. If the Contractor fails or refuses to repair the damage promptly, the Contracting Officer may have the necessary work performed and charge the cost to the Contractor.

e. Repair or replace portions of existing work which have been altered during construction operations including roadways, curbs, sidewalks, rail grade crossings, to match existing or adjoining work, as approved by the Contracting Officer. At the completion of operations, existing work must be in a condition equal to or better than that which existed before new work started.

1.9 LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES

Obtain digging permits prior to start of excavation, and comply with Installation requirements for locating and marking underground utilities.

No excavation whether minor or major including trenching, sidewalk replacement, etc. will be permitted without an approved digging permit.

Contractor shall apply for renewal of work permits as required if the work continues beyond the original permit expiration date. Contact local utility locating service a minimum of 15 days prior to excavating, to mark utilities, and within sufficient time required if work occurs on a Monday or after a Holiday. Verify existing utility locations indicated on contract drawings, within area of work. Work on or near roadways shall be flagged in accordance with the safety requirements in Safety and Health Requirements Manual EM 385-1-1, which forms a part of these specifications. Work located along the alert force route shall not cause blockage, and the Contractor shall maintain unobstructed access for alert force traffic at all times.

Identify and mark all other utilities not managed and located by the local utility companies. Scan the construction site with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), electromagnetic, or sonic equipment, and mark the surface of the ground or paved surface where existing underground utilities are discovered. Verify the elevations of existing piping, utilities,and any type of underground obstruction not indicated, or specified to be removed, that is indicated or discovered during scanning, in locations to be traversed by piping, ducts, and other work to be conducted or installed.

Verify elevations before installing new work closer than nearest manhole or other structure at which an adjustment in grade can be made.

1.9.1 Notification Prior to Excavation

Notify the Contracting Officer at least 30 days prior to starting excavation work. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining a digging permit prior to commencing any excavation. The digging permit is referred to as the "Dig-Safe Permit" and the procedure for obtaining this permit is as follows:

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 7

a. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing 30 working days prior to commencing any excavation. Notification letter and a completed Dig Safe Permit Request will be submitted to the Contracting Officer and must include areas to be excavated, reason for excavation, depth of excavation, and any supporting information such as drawings to allow the processing of permit. A copy of the Dig Safe Permit Request is attached at the end of Section 01 35 26 GOVERNMENTAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.

The top portion of the request must be filled out by the Contractor. The Contractor shall not be compensated for any delay caused by failure to notify government on timely basis to obtain the digging permit.

b. Once the permit is approved and signed by the Chief of the Utilities Division a Dig-Safe Permit will be issued to the contractor. From the issuance of the Dig-Safe permit, the Contractor has two weeks to commence excavation, after that the permit will no longer be valid and will have to be re-submitted.

c. Once utilities have been identified and marked, it is the responsibility of the contractor to maintain markings throughout the duration of the project.

d. In the event that any utility line is damaged, all excavation will stop, and the Contracting Officer and U&FD (845-938-2818) will be contacted immediately. The U&FD will take appropriate action to effect safe repair. If utility lines are uncovered which were not identified in the Dig-Safe, the U&FD will be contacted, and a determination will be made as to which utility is involved and whether the lines are active or abandoned. When an unknown line is uncovered, it will be treated as "live" until determined otherwise.

e. The Dig-Safe permit may be received by the requestor with special instructions. These instructions must be complied with. These instructions will involve procedures that are determined safe by the Chief, Utilities and Facilities Division and will have to be followed.

f. Excavation may generate further actions depending upon each situation.

Unknown utility locations must be recorded and drawings changed to show location.

g. There are no exceptions to the Dig-Safe Permit process.

h. See SOP 11-7 ANNEX V for additional requirements to obtain a Dig Safe Permit.

1.10 SALVAGE MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT

Items designated by the Contracting Officer to be salvaged remain the property of the Government. Segregate, itemize, deliver and off-load the salvaged property at the Government designated storage area located within five miles of the construction site.

Provide a salvage plan, listing material and equipment to be salvaged, and their storage location. Maintain property control records for material or equipment designated as salvage. Use a system of property control that is approved by the Contracting Officer. Store and protect salvaged materials and equipment until disposition by the Contracting Officer.
