SUMMARY OF WORK

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

The general description below is given to indicate the approximate scope of this project only. It does not limit the work required under the project drawings and specifications.

This project consists of the following elements:

1. Install a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers owned bulkhead at the upstream end of each conduit (there are three parallel conduits) to dewater the conduits, one at a time. Divers will likely be required.

The bulkhead is to be inserted into the existing stop gate guide columns. The Contractor shall utilize the existing crane at the top of the gate tower, and shall provide his own operator. The bulkhead structure shall be moved two times in order to dewater each of the three conduits. The capacity of the crane is 22 tons.

2. Rebuild all six hydraulic cylinders, two at a time (i.e., per conduit). This consists of:

- Disassemble each cylinder.

- Once gate stem/piston rods and stem extension rods are free of the cylinder shell, hoist them up and out of the intake tower.

- Contractor takes all six gate stem/piston rods and stem extension rods, two at a time, to his shop for polishing/honing.

- Polish/hone the gate stem/piston rods and stem extension rods.

- Reassemble each cylinder.

- Replace all oil and water packings, rings and gaskets.

If the Contractor uses the gatehouse hoist for this work, the Contractor is required to inspect and certify the hoist prior to use. The Contractor is required to provide a qualified operator in accordance with Section 01 35 26 GOVERNMENTAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS and EM 385-1-1, Sections 15 and 16. Furthermore, if the gatehouse hoist is utilized, fall hazards will be present due to floor openings at every level of the gatehouse. The Contractor shall utilize a Qualified Person in Fall Protection in accordance with Section 01 35 26 GOVERNMENTAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS and EM 385-1-1, Section 21, to establish fall protection anchor points and to develop and implement a site-specific Fall Prevention Plan.

3. Replace one of the sump pump valves in the bottom level of the intake tower.

4. Modify the indicator rods (5 each, since one is already like this) to have them attach to the upper stem extension rod instead of the

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 1 gates.

5. Plug up the resulting holes left by the removal of the indicator rods in the gate bonnets.

There is an environmental low flow requirement of 50 cubic feet per second (cfs) that must be passed through both the Colebrook Dam and the Goodwin Dam, into the Farmington River downstream of the Goodwin Dam. This flow will be accomplished by having one of the gates that is not being worked on be opened enough to allow the flow through that conduit section. One gate open 0.2 feet is expected to provide a flow of 50 cfs, with the water depth through the main portion of the conduit expected to be 1.6 feet deep. This gate opening will be adjusted as necessary to produce the 50 cfs required flow during this project due to bulkhead leakage, gate leakage, weather conditions and how much flow seeps into the ground of the Goodwin pool when it is dewatered down to Elev 575. It is anticipated that no personnel will have to be in the conduit during the duration of this project.

All welding and grinding of painted surfaces will be performed in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.62.

Lead containing paint is present on the existing equipment involved in the work of this contract. The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.62 and EM 385-1-1 concerning work with lead containing paints and coatings.

Work in the gate chamber is considered work in a permit-required confined space and work impacting painted structures shall be completed in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.62 and EM 385-1-1. This space is considered a permit-required confined space due to the presence of tanksholding nitrogen located in the gate chamber.

The existing crane at the top of the Gatehouse was installed by the Metropolitan District Commission (MDC) for its hydroelectric operations and was last inspected on 27 September 2018. The inspection report is attached at the end of this section.
