2.9.5 SATISFACTORY MATERIAL
Excavated material (below topsoil), if satisfactory for reuse per the Contractor’s Geotechnical Engineer, may be used on the project site where fill is required.
Unsatisfactory material, and surplus excavated material not required for fill, must be disposed of offsite, and is the responsibility of the Contractor. Borrow material may be required for construction from sources off site. Borrow materials are to be free of hazardous materials and contaminants. Any soil brought in from off-site sources must be certified clean.

17-Aug-20 Page 11 of 42
Provide site grading that directs storm water runoff away from buildings and structures either by drainage systems or by grading as follows:
Finished grades of earth/grass/gravel surfaces adjacent to buildings and structures must slope away from all exterior edges with a minimum slope of 5% for the first 2 meters.
Finished grades of paved surfaces adjacent to buildings and structures must slope away from all exterior edges with a minimum slope of 2% for the first 2 meters.
Finished grades must not create stagnating water or ponding anywhere on the project site, nor create ponding on adjacent properties. Provide storm improvements if ponding is unavoidable.
Site grading around the building must meet Host Nation accessibility guidelines.
2.10 UTILITIES
This section applies to all project underground utilities located outside the building, including but not limited to, sanitary sewer, water supply, storm drainage, electrical, communications, gas, liquid fuel, and heat. See Sections 5.0-ELECTRICAL, Section 6.0-MECHANICAL, and Section 7.0-FIRE PROTECTION for additional utility requirements.
Proposed utility main alignments must be at least 3.0 meters from facility or building foundations, except for building connections. Provide horizontal and vertical separation between new and existing utilities for rehabilitation, maintenance, repair or replacement. Provide utility line depths, bedding, and backfill as required by applicable requirements and geotechnical recommendations.
Minimum cover over pipes is 0.6 meters; or sufficient to support imposed dead and live loads for the pipe materials used; whichever is more stringent. Place plastic warning tape along the route of the buried pipe after installation at a height of
0.3 meters above the pipe.
Coordinate all required installation, relocation, improvement and protection of utilities held by third party (e.g. public or private utility). This includes coordination of any work to be performed by the utility owner. Choice of materials and products for utility installation must be coordinated with the utility owner (customer or third party) to ensure proper integration and compliance with existing systems and allow for easy maintenance and repair of the utilities in the future.
Provide utility materials per IBC requirements. Provide corrosion protection for utilities that provides the minimum life expectancy specified in GENERAL Section
1.0. Any piping or equipment exposed to sunlight must be coated with protective coatings suitable for UV exposure with a minimum expected coating life of 10 years before recoating.
2.10.1 STORM SYSTEM
Provide a gravity storm drainage system to direct runoff away from improvements, eliminate ponding, and prevent erosion. A pump system is not allowed. If using an infiltration or detention system, locate infiltration/detention facilities a minimum of 3 meters away and downhill from structures. Provide an overflow to any proposed infiltration/detention systems that will not damage improvements or cause erosion. Allowable storm pipe materials include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), high density polyethylene (HDPE), ductile iron, or reinforced concrete pipe. In the absence of Host Nation standards, design the storm drainage system per UFC 3- 201- 01, Civil Engineering Chapter 3-Storm Drainage Systems.
With a new school building and latrine structure in the compound, there will be an elevated risk of flooding the existing classroom and shop. Ensure runoff is directed away from any existing or new facilities. The new school building and latrine should be slightly elevated to mitigate flooding risk.
17-Aug-20 Page 12 of 42
Connect building downspouts to splash blocks that drain away from foundations a minimum of 2 meters.
After installation, test storm lines and structures for leakage and deflection per local codes. Provide test results to the KO. Locate and repair any sections failing to pass the required tests. Repeat the specified tests and inspections on the repaired sections.
2.10.2 SANITARY SYSTEM

3.3.2 LATRINE BUILDING for proposed layouts and functions. Design of the latrine system, including volumes and maintenance, is detailed in Attachment 6.
Allowable sanitary pipe materials include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), high density polyethylene (HDPE), or ductile iron. Sanitary structures must be concrete, with traffic rated cast iron or ductile iron frames and covers. In the absence of Host Nation standards, design the sanitary system per UFC 3-240-01, Wastewater Collection.
After installation, test sanitary lines and structures for leakage and deflection per local codes. Provide test results to the KO. Locate and repair any sections failing to pass the required tests. Repeat the specified tests and inspections on the repaired sections.
2.10.3 WATER SYSTEM
Provide a water system to connect the proposed building to the site’s existing water system, which appears to consist of a water connection with a water meter and water faucet as shown in Attachment #2 - Conceptual Site Plan. Design the system to meet all flow requirements of the facility, including potable water and fire flows.
All new water distribution piping must have a minimum horizontal separation of 3 m from all new or existing sanitary water systems.
Contractor must perform testing and an assessment on the water system. Upgrade or decommission and replace the system in order to provide needed flow that the site will require with the increased use.
After installation, test water supply lines according to local codes for leakage.
Before the water supply line is put into final operation, disinfect the line, and then flush the line to remove traces of the sterilization agent. Test treated line for coliform bacteria. Provide test results to the KO. Locate and repair any sections failing to pass the required tests. Repeat the specified tests and inspections on the repaired sections.
2.11 PAVEMENT
Provide minimum 0.90 meter wide concrete building apron around the entire building and an accessibility (wheelchair) ramp. Install concrete over minimum 30 centimeters aggregate. Install the top of the apron a minimum of 24 centimeters above the adjacent ground. Provide a minimum of 5 centimeters of bury on the concrete. Provide expansion joint between building and apron.
For PCC, reference SOW Section 4.0 - STRUCTURAL for concrete requirements.

Provide 15 centimeters of compacted gravel with a maximum particle size of 3 centimeters in areas that do not have pavement or a building within the limits of disturbance. Refer to 2.9 EARTHWORK section for minimum compaction
2.13 MOBILIZATION / STAGING / PERMITS
Locate mobilization and staging within the footprint indicated on Attachment #2 – Conceptual Site Plan as much as practicable. If mobilization and staging areas must be located off of the site due to the small site size, obtain all applicable permissions and permits related to staging and storage. Locate mobilization and staging to areas that do not disrupt operations at the installation. Reference RFP Section 00 74 00-SPECIAL CONDITIONS for other mobilization, access, and permit requirements.
