Verify elevations before installing new work closer than nearest manhole or other structure at which an adjustment in grade can be made.
1.7.1 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:
a. 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
SECTION 01 11 00 Page 5 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.
1.8 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.

1.2 DEFINITIONS
a. "Cementitious material" as used herein must include all portland cement, pozzolan, fly ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, and silica fume.
SECTION 03 30 00 Page 5
b. "Exposed to public view" means situated so that it can be seen from eye level from a public location after completion of the building. A public location is accessible to persons not responsible for operation or maintenance of the building.
c. "Chemical admixtures" are materials in the form of powder or fluids that are added to the concrete to give it certain characteristics not obtainable with plain concrete mixes.
d. "Supplementary cementing materials" (SCM) include coal fly ash, silica fume, granulated blast-furnace slag, natural or calcined pozzolans, and ultra-fine coal ash when used in such proportions to replace the portland cement that result in improvement to sustainability and durability and reduced cost.
e. "Design strength" (f'c) is the specified compressive strength of concrete at time(s) specified in this section to meet structural design criteria.
f. "Mass Concrete" is any concrete system that approaches a maximum temperature of 158 degrees F within the first 72 hours of placement.
In addition, it includes all concrete elements with a section thickness of 3 feet or more regardless of temperature.
g. "Mixture proportioning" is the process of designing concrete mixture proportions to enable it to meet the strength, service life and constructability requirements of the project while minimizing the initial and life-cycle cost.
h. "Mixture proportions" are the masses or volumes of individual ingredients used to make a unit measure (cubic meter or cubic yard) of concrete.
i. "Pozzolan" is a siliceous or siliceous and aluminous material, which in itself possesses little or no cementitious value but will, in finely divided form and in the presence of moisture, chemically react with calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperatures to form compounds possessing cementitious properties.
j. "Workability (or consistence)" is the ability of a fresh (plastic) concrete mix to fill the form/mould properly with the desired work (vibration) and without reducing the concrete's quality. Workability depends on water content, chemical admixtures, aggregate (shape and size distribution), cementitious content and age (level of hydration).
