Main Street Round Rock, Texas 78664 and shall be identified as follows: "BID FOR 2,500,000 GALLON GROUND STORAGE TANK (SOUTHEAST ROUND ROCK WATER STORAGE IMPROVEMENTS) to be opened at 3:00 p.m., Tuesday, February 4, 1986." A proposal will not be accepted unless prepared on the bid- ding form provided. The sealed proposals will be publicly opened and read at the time and place stated in the Notice Inviting Bids. Bidders or their authorized agents are invit- ed to be present. Unauthorized conditions, limitations or provisions attached to a proposal will render it informal and may cause its rejection. The complete proposal forms shall be without addition, alterations or erasures. Alternative proposals will not be considered unless called for. No oral, telegraphic or telephonic proposals or modifications will be considered. The proposal may be withdrawn upon request by the bidder without prejudice to himself prior to, but not after, the time fixed for opening of bids, provided that the request is in writing, has been executed by the bidder or his duly authorized representative, and is filed with the Owner. DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS More than one proposal from an individual, firm, partnership, corporation or association under the same or different names, will not be considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder is interested in more than one proposal for the work contemplated will cause the rejection of all propo- sals in which such bidder is interested. If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among bidders, all bids will be rejected and none of the participants in such collu- sion will be considered in future proposals. 1 of 3 RETURN OF PROPOSAL GUARANTEES Within twenty -five (25) days after an award of the Contract, the Owner will return the proposal guarantees accompanying each of the proposals as are not considered in making the award. All other proposal guarantees will be held until the Contract has been finally executed. They will then be re- turned to the respective bidders whose proposals they accom- pany. AWARD OF CONTRACT - RESERVATION OF RIGHTS Contracts, if awarded, will be awarded to responsible bidders whose proposals comply with all the requirements prescribed. Awards, if made, will be made within sixty (60) calendar days after the opening of the proposals. The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all bid proposals, to accept the low- est responsible bidder's proposal, and to waive any informal- ity in any proposal. EXECUTION OF CONTRACT A bidder to whom award is made shall execute a written con- tract with the Owner on the form of agreement provided. Failure or refusal to enter into a contract as herein provid- ed, or to conform to any of the stipulated requirements in connection therewith shall be a just cause for the annulment of the award. If the successful bidder refuses or fails to execute the Contract, the Owner may award the Contract to second lowest responsible bidder. If the second lowest re- sponsible bidder refuses or fails to execute the Contract, the Owner may award the Contract to the third lowest respon- sible bidder. On the failure or refusal of such second and third lowest responsible bidder to execute the Contract, the work may be re- advertised. PROPOSAL GUARANTEE Each proposal shall be accompanied by a certified or cash- ier's check or bid bond in the amount of not less than 5% of the amount named in the proposal. Said check or bond shall be made payable to the Owner and shall be given as a guaran- tee that the bidder, if awarded the work, will enter into a contract within ten (10) days after the award and will fur- nish the necessary bonds as hereinafter provided. In case of refusal or failure to enter into said contract, the check or bond as the case may be, shall be forfeited to the Owner. No bidder's bond will be accepted unless it conforms substan- tially to the form furnished by the Owner, which is bound herein, and is properly filled out and executed. 2 of 3 PROPOSAL SIGNATURE If the proposal is made by an individual, it shall be signed and his full name and his address shall be given; if it is made by a firm it shall be signed with the co- partnership name by a member of the firm, who shall sign his own name, and the name and address of each member shall be given; and if it is made by a corporation the name of the corporation shall be signed by its duly authorized officer or officers attested by the corporate seal, and the names and titles of all officers of the corporation shall be given. COMPETENCY OF BIDDERS In selecting the lowest responsible bidder, consideration will be given not only to the financial standing, but also to the general competency of the bidder for the performance of the work covered by the proposal. To this end each proposal shall be supported by a statement of the bidder's experience, on the form entitled "Information Required of Low Bidder ", bound herein. BIDDER'S EXAMINATION OF SITE Each bidder shall examine carefully the site of the proposed work and the Contract Documents therefor. It will be assumed that the bidder has investigated and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered; as to the character, quality and quantity of materials to be furnished and as to the requirements of the Contract, Specifications and Drawings. ADDENDA Bidders desiring further information, or interpretation of the Plans or Specifications must make request for such infor- mation in writing to Engineer, prior to 48 -hours before the bid opening. Answers to all such requests will be given in writing to all bidders, in Addendum form, and all Addenda will be bound with, and made a part of, the Contract Docu- ments. No other explanation or interpretation will be consi- dered official or binding. Should a bidder find discrepan- cies in, or omissions from the Plans, Specifications or other Contract Documents, or should he be in doubt as to their meaning, he should at once notify the Engineer in order that a written Addendum may be sent to all bidders. Any Addenda issued prior to twenty -four (24) hours of the opening of bids will be mailed or delivered to each Contractor contemplating the submission of a proposal on this work.

GENERAL PROVISIONS 2.01 Engineer's Status and Authority. It is mutually agreed by and between the parties to this Contract that the Engineer shall have general supervision and direction of the work included herein. In order to prevent delays and disputes and to discourage litiga- tion it is further agreed by and between the parties of this Contract that the Engineer shall in all cases determine the amounts and quantities of the several kinds of work which are to be paid for under the Con- tract; that he shall determine all questions in rela- tion to said work and the construction thereof, that he shall in all cases decide every question which may arise relative to the execution of the Contract on the part of the Contractor; that his decisions and find- ings shall be the conditions precedent to the right of the parties hereto to arbitration or to any action on the Contract and to the rights of the Contractor to receive any money under this Contract; provided, how- ever, that should the Engineer render any decision or give any direction which in the opinion of either party hereto is not in accordance with the meaning and intent of this Contract, either party may file with the Engineer within 30 days a written objection to the decision or direction so rendered. It is the intent of this Agreement that there shall be no delay in the execution of the work, and the decision or directions of the Engineer as rendered shall be promptly carried out. 2.02 Right of Engineer to Modify Methods and Equipment. If at any time the methods or equipment used by the Con- tractor are found to be unsafe or inadequate to secure the quality of the work or the rate of progress re- quired under this Contract, the Engineer may direct the Contractor in writing to increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency and to cease operations under this Contract until such direction is complied with. No claims shall be made against the Owner for damages caused by any delay resulting from such order. GC -3 2.03 Changes and Alterations. The Contractor agrees that the Owner, through the Engineer, may make such changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit in the line, grade, form, dimensions, plans, or materials for the work herein contemplated or any part thereof either before or after the beginning of the construction without affecting the validity of this Contract and the accompanying bonds. If such changes or altera- tions diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a claim for damages or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with. If they increase the amount of work and the increased work can fairly be classified under the specifications, such increase shall be paid for according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price established for such work under this Con- tract; otherwise such work shall be paid for as pro- vided under Section 2.12 "Extra Work ". In the event the Owner shall make such changes or alterations which will make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the Owner shall compensate the Contractor for any materials or labor so used, for any actual loss occasioned by such change, and for the actual expenses incurred in prepa- ration for the work as originally planned. 2.04 Damages. The right of general supervision by the Owner shall not make the Contractor an agent of the Owner, and the liability of the Contractor for all damages to persons, firms, and corporations arising from the Contractor's execution of the work shall not be lessened because of such general supervision. The Contractor is an independent contractor in regard to work under this Contract, and as such is solely liable for all damages to any persons, firms, corporations, or their property as a result of the prosecution of the work. 2.05 Losses from Natural Causes. All loss or damage aris- ing out of the nature of the work to be done or from the action of the elements or from any unforeseen cir- cumstances in the prosecution of the work or from unu- sual obstructions or difficulties which may be encoun- tered in the prosecution of the work-shall be sustain- ed and borne by the Contractor at his own cost and expense. 2.06 Laws and Ordinances. The Contractor shall at all times observe and comply with all Federal, State, and local laws, ordinances, rules and regulations which GC -4 in any manner affect the Contract or the work and shall indemnify and save harmless the Owner against any claim arising from the violation of any such laws and ordinances whether by the Contractor or his em- ployees or his subcontractors and their employees. 2.07 Licenses Permits and Certificates. Except as herein- after stipulated, all licenses, permits, certificates, etc. required for and in connection with the work to be performed under the provisions of these Contract Documents shall be secured by the Contractor at his own expense. In the event a building permit is re- quired such permit will be obtained by the Owner at no cost to the Contractor. 2.08 Loyalties and Patents. The Contractor shall protect and save harmless the Owner from all and every demand for damages, royalties, or fees on any patented inven- tion used by him in connection with the work done or material furnished under this Contract; provided, how- ever, that if any patented material, machinery, appli- ance, or invention is clearly specified in this Con- tract, the cost of procuring the rights of use and the legal release or indemnity shall be borne and paid by the Owner direct unless such cost is determined and directed to be included in the bid price at the time the Proposal is submitted. 2.09 Keeping of Plans and Specifications Accessible. The Engineer shall furnish the Contractor with three (3) sets of executed Plans and Specifications without ex- pense to him, and the Contractor shall keep one copy of the same constantly accessible on the work, with the latest revisions noted thereon. 2.10 Discrepancies and Omissions. It is further agreed that it is the intent of this Contract that all work must be done and all material must be furnished in ac- cordance with the generally accepted practice, and in the event of any discrepancies between the separate contract documents, the priority of interpretation de- fined under "Contract Documents" shall govern. In the event that there is still any doubt as to the meaning and intent of any portion of the Contract, Specifica- tions or Drawings, the Engineer shall define which is intended to apply to the work. 2.11 Contractor's Understanding. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor has, by careful examina- tion, satisfied himself as to the nature and location GC -5 1 of the work, the conformation of the ground, the char- acter, quality and quantity of the materials to be en- countered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the work under this Contract. No verbal agreement or conversa- tion with any officer, agent, or employee of the Own- er, either before or after the execution of this Con- tract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or ob- ligations herein contained. 2.12 Extra Work. The term "extra work" as used in this Contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be required by the Owner through the Engineer to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change, alteration, or addition to the work shown by the Plans or reasonably implied by the Specifica- tions and not covered by the Contractor's Proposal, except as provided in Section 2.03 - "Changes and Alterations ". It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the direction of the Engineer when presented with a written Change Order signed by the Engineer. No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by the Engineer. In case any orders or instructions, either oral or written, appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which he should receive compensation, he shall make a written request to the Engineer for a written Change Order authorizing such extra work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute extra work or concerning the payment therefor and the Engineer insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making a written request for a written Change Order and shall keep an accurate account of the "actual field cost" thereof as provided under Method "C" below. 2.13 Payment for Extra Work. It is agreed that the compen- sation to be paid the Contractor for performing extra work shall be determined by one or more of the follow- ing methods: Method "A" - By agreed unit prices; Method "B" - By agreed lump sum; or GC -6 Method "C" - If neither Method "A' or Method "B" can be agreed upon before the extra work is commenced, then the Contractor shall be paid the "actual field cost" of the work plus 15%. Where extra work is performed under Method "C ", the term "actual field cost" of such extra work is hereby defined =to be and shall include: (a) the payroll cost for all workmen, such as foreman, mechanics, crafts- men, and laborers; (b) the cost of all materials and supplies not furnished by the Owner; (c) rental for all power- driven equipment at agreed -upon rates for the time actually employed or used in the performance of the extra work; (d) transportation charges neces- sarily incurred in connection with any equipment authorized by the Engineer for use on said extra work and which is not already on the job; (e) all power, fuel, lubricants, water, and similar operating expens- es; (f) all incidental expenses incurred as a direct result of such extra work including sales or use taxes on materials, payroll taxes, and the additional pre- miums for construction bonds, workmen's compensation, public liability and property damage, and other insur- ance required by the Contract where the premiums therefor are based on payroll and material costs. The Engineer may direct the form in which accounts of the "actual field costs" shall be kept and may also speci- fy in writing before the work commences the method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise these matters shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equip- ment shall be incorporated in the written extra work Change Order. The 15% of the "actual field cost" to be paid the Contractor shall cover and compensate him for his profit, overhead, and general superinten- dence. 2.14 Assignment and Subletting. The Contractor shall not assign or sublet the work or any part thereof without the previous written consent of the Owner, nor shall he assign, by power of attorney or otherwise, any of the money payable under this Contract unless by and with the consent of the Owner to be signified in like manner. If the Contractor assigns all or any part of any monies due or to became due under this Contract, the instrument of assignment shall contain a clause substantially to the effect that it is agreed that the right of the assignee in and to any monies due or to GC-7 1 1 1 1 1 become due to the Contractor shall be subject to all prior liens of all persons, firms, and corporations for services rendered or materials supplied for the performance of the work called for in this Contract. 2.15 Subcontractors. The Contractor shall be as fully re- sponsible to the Owner for the acts and omissions of his subcontractors and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by them as he is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by him. Should any subcontractor fail to perform the work undertaken by him in a satisfactory manner, his subcontract shall be immediately terminated by the Contractor upon writ- ten notice from the Owner. 2.16 Owner's Status. Nothing contained in this Contract shall create any contractual relation between any sub- contractor and the Owner. 2.17 Completed Portions of Work. The Owner shall have the right to take possession of and to use any completed or partially completed portions of the work prior to completion of the entire work, but such use shall not constitute an acceptance of any of the work not com- pleted in accordance with the Contract Documents. If the Engineer determines that taking possession of and using partially completed work substantially increases the cost of or delays construction, the Contractor shall be entitled to extra compensation or extension of time or both as determined by the Engineer. 2.18 Materials. All materials furnished by the Contractor shall be as required by the Plans and Specifications or as otherwise stipulated. The Contractor shall not start delivery of materials which he is to furnish until the Engineer has approved the source of supply of such materials. 2.19 Receiving and Storage of Materials. The Contractor shall make arrangements for receiving and storing materials. The Owner will not sign for or receive shipments of materials consigned to the Contractor. The Owner will not furnish storage space for materials except where the written permission of the Engineer is given. 2.20 Or Equal" Clause. Whenever a material, product, or article is specified or shown on the Plans by using the name of the proprietary product or of a particular manufacturer or vendor and is followed by the term "or equal' the Contractor may submit a written request to GC -8 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 • ■ • • 1 the Engineer requesting approval of the use of a material, product, or article he feels is truly equal to the one specified. The Engineer will evaluate the request to determine if the material, product, or article is of equal substance and function and if it will perform identically the duties imposed by the general design. Written approval of an "or equal" material, product, or article must be obtained from the Engineer before it may be incorporated into the work as a substitute for that specified in the Con- tract Documents. 2.21 Completed Work. The Contractor shall maintain contin- uous adequate safeguards to protect all completed work from damage, loss, or the intrusion of foreign ele- ments. 2.22 Materials Furnished by the Owner. The Contractor shall assume responsibility for and safeguard any and all materials supplied by the Owner against loss or injury.

The Contractor shall give reasonable notice to the owner or owners of public or private property and utilities when such property is liable to injury or damage through the performance of the work, and he shall make all necessary arrangements with such owner or owners relative to the removal and replacement or protection of such property or utili- ties. The Contractor shall satisfactorily shore, support, and protect any and all structures, and all pipes, sewers, drains, conduits, and other facilities belong- ing to the Owner, and he shall be responsible for any damage resulting thereto. The Contractor shall not be entitled to any damages or extra pay as a result of any postponement, interference, or delay caused by any such structures and facilities being on the line of the work whether they are shown on the Plans or not. 2.24 Shelters for Workmen and Materials. The building or structures for housing men or the erection of tents or other forms of protection for workmen or materials will be permitted only as the Engineer shall authorize or direct. The sanitary conditions of the grounds in or about such structures shall at all times be main- tained in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer. GC -9 2.25 Sanitary Facilities. Necessary sanitary toilet facil- ities for the use of all employees on the work shall be of a type complying with State and local sanitary regulations and shall be properly secluded from public observation. These facilities shall be constructed and maintained by the Contractor in such manner and at such points as shall be approved by the Engineer. Their use shall be strictly enforced. 3. CONTRACTOR'S OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES 3.01 Labor, Equipment, Materials and Construction Plant. The Contractor shall provide all labor, tools, equip- ment, machinery, supplies, and materials necessary for the prosecution and completion of this Contract where it is not specifically provided that the Owner shall furnish them.

The Contractor shall maintain on the job at all times sufficient labor, material, and equipment to adequately prosecute the work. 3.02 Performance and Payment Bonds. It is further agreed by the Parties to t is Contract that the Contractor will execute separate performance and payment bonds, each in the sum of 100% of the total Contract price in standard forms for this purpose, guaranteeing faithful performance of the work and the fulfillment of any guarantees required and further guaranteeing payment to all persons supplying labor and materials or fur- nishing him any equipment in the execution of the Con- tract. It is agreed that the Contract shall not be in effect until such performance and payment bonds are furnished and approved by the Owner. The cost of the premium for the performance and payment bonds shall be included in the price bid by the Contractor for the work under this Contract, and no extra payment for such bonds will be made by the Owner. The surety company or companies underwriting the per- formance and payment bonds shall be acceptable accord- ing to the latest list of companies holding certifi- cates of authority from the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, shall be duly authorized to act under the laws of the State of Texas as Surety, and shall be approved by the Owner. GC -10 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 • • • 1 1 1 3.03 Contractor's Ability to Perform. Upon request by the Owner the Contractor shal furnish sufficient evidence of his ability to perform the work which is outlined in this document. This shall include an equipment in- ventory and records showing the satisfactory comple- tion of projects of equal magnitude in the past. It shall be the prerogative of the Owner to terminate the Contract as outlined in Section 7 "Termination of Con- tract", if job progress indicates that the Contractor lacks either appropriate experience or ability. 3.04 Superintendence and Inspection. The Contractor shall give personal attention to the faithful prosecution and completion of the Contract and shall keep a compe- tent superintendent and any necessary assistants, all of whom are satisfactory to the Engineer, on the work continuously during its progress. The superintendent shall represent the Contractor in his absence, and all directions given to him by the Owner's representative shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor. In the event that the Contractor and the superinten- dent are both absent from the site of the work for prolonged periods of time the Engineer may order any or all work under this Contract to be stopped until the Contractor provides continuous and proper supervi- sion of the work. Such stoppage shall not constitute a basis for any claim against the Owner for damages caused by delay for such work stoppages. 3.05 Character of Employees. The Contractor agrees to em- ploy only order y, competent, and skillful persons to do the work, and whenever the Engineer shall inform him that the work being accomplished is of sub -stan- dard character by reason of carelessness, incompe- tence, or inexperience on the part of the workers the installation of such work shall be immediately sus- pended and shall not be resumed until the Engineer is satisfied that the conditions causing such faulty work have been corrected. 3.06 Contractor's Duty to Protect Persons and Property. In the performance of this Contract, the Contractor shall protect the public and the Owner fully by taking rea- sonable precaution to safeguard persons from death or bodily injury and to safeguard property of any nature whatsoever from damage. Where any dangerous condition or nuisance exists in and around construction sites, equipment and supply storage areas, and other areas in GC -11 anyway connected with the performance of this Con- tract, the Contractor shall not create excavations, obstructions, or any dangerous condition or nuisance of any nature whatsoever in connection with the per- formance of this Contract unless necessary to its per- formance, and in that event the Contractor shall pro- vide and maintain at all times reasonable means of warning of any danger or nuisance created. The duties of the Contractor in this paragraph shall be nondeleg- able, and the Contractor's compliance with the speci- fic recommendations and requirements of the Owner as to the means of warning shall not excuse the Contrac- tor from the faithful performance of these duties should such recommendations and requirements not be adequate or reasonable under the circumstances. 3.07 Safety Codes. The Contractor shall comply with all applicable provisions of any Federal, State, and Muni- cipal safety laws and building and construction codes. All machinery, equipment, and other physical hazards shall be guarded in accordance with the latest edition of the "Manual of Accident Prevention in Construction" of the Associated General Contractors of America ex- cept where incompatible with Federal, State, or Muni- cipal laws or regulations. 3.08 Barricades. When barricades are used to satisfy safety requirements, such barricades shall be properly identified with the Contractor's name prominently stenciled on both sides of the barricades with letters at least 2 inches high. 3.09 Minimum Wages. All employees directly employed on the work shall be paid not less than the established pre- vailing wage scale for work of a similar character in this locality. The Contractor shall pay not less than the general prevailing wages as established by the U.S. Department of Labor and shall keep accurate wages records accessible in accordance with Article 5159 of the Revised Civil Statutes of Texas. 3.10 Unsuitable Work or Materials. It is understood and agreed that if the work or any part thereof or any material furnished by the Contractor for use in the work or selected for the same shall be deemed by the Engineer as unsuitable or not in conformity with the specifications, the Contractor shall, after receipt of written notice thereof from the Contracting Officer, GC -12 forthwith remove such material and replace, rebuild, or otherwise remedy such work so that it shall be in full accordance with this Contract. Should the Contractor fail to initiate compliance with the above provision within 72 hours or should he fail to properly prosecute and complete correction of such faulty work, the Engineer may direct that the work be done by others and that the cost of the work be de- ducted from monies due the Contractor. 3.11 No Waiver of Contractor's Obligations.

If the Contractor should abandon and fail to refuse to resume work within 10 GC -20 days after written notification from the Owner or the Engineer or if the Contractor fails to comply with the orders of the Engineer when such orders are consistent with this Contract or with the specifications hereto attached, then the Contractor shall be deemed as hav- ing abandoned the Contract. In such event the Surety on the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor. 8.02 Retention of Contractor's Equipment and Materials by Owner. After receiving said notice of abandonment the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies then on the job, but the same together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety on the per- formance bond or another contractor in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefor except when used in connec- tion with extra work where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Section 2.12 entitled "Extra Work ", it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and will be reflected in the final settle- ment. 8.03 Methods of Completing the Work. If the Surety should Tin to commence comp ianl cewith the notice for com- pletion hereinbefore provided within 10 days after service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners: a. The Owner may thereupon employ such force of work- ers and use such machinery, equipment, tools, mat- erials, and supplies as said Owner may deem neces- sary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, mater- ials, and supplies to said Contractor, and the ex- pense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such monies as may be due or that may thereafter at any time become due to the Contrac- tor under and by virtue of this Contract. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under this Contract if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then said Con- tractor shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this Contract if the same GC -21 had been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner. b. The Owner under sealed bids, after 14 days notice published two or more times in a newspaper having a general circulation in the county of location of the work, may let the contract for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this Contract. In case of any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this Contract such increase shall be charged to the Contractor, and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than what would have been the cost to complete under this Contract, the Contrac- tor or his Surety shall be credited therewith. 8.04 Final Acceptance. When the work has been completed the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and a Contract Completion Certificate as hereinafter pro- vided shall be issued. A complete itemized statement of the Contract accounts certified by the Engineer as being correct shall then be prepared and delivered to the Contractor and his Surety, whereupon the Contrac- tor, his Surety or the Owner, as the case may be, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said state- ment within 15 days after the date of such Contract Completion Certificate. 8.05 Disposition of Contractor's Equipment. In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to com- plete the work is less than that which would have been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this Contract or when the Contractor or his Surety pay the balance shown to be due by them to the Owner, then all machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the Con- tractor or his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the Contractor or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the Owner within the time designated hereinabove, and there re- mains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof to- gether with an itemized list of such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the Contractor and his Surety at the respective addresses designated in this GC -22 Contract; provided, however, that actual written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condi- tion. After mailing or other giving of such notice such property shall be held by the Owner at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety subject only to the duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After 15 days from the date of said notice the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety. Such sale may be made at either pub- lic or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies which remain on the work and belong to persons other than the Contractor or his Surety to their proper owners. 9. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 9.01 Character of Measurements. No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual length, area, solid contents, number, and weight only shall be considered unless otherwise spe- cifically provided. 9.02 Estimated vs. Actual Quantities. Any and all estimat- ed quantities stipulated in the proposal form under unit price items are approximate and are to be used only (a) as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and (b) for the purpose of comparing the proposals submitted for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amounts of work done and materials furnished under unit price items may differ from such estimated quantities and that the basis of payment for such work and materials shall be for the actual amount of such work done and the actual quan- tity of materials furnished. The Contractor agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits, or otherwise on account of any difference between the amounts of work actually performed and materials actually furnished and the amounts estimated therefor in the proposal or other Contract Documents; provided, however, that if the actual quantity of any item should become as much as 25 percent more than or 25 percent less than the esti- mated or contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Contract shall be entitled upon demand to a revised consideration on the portion of GC -23 the work above or below 25 percent of the estimated quantity prior to initiating work or furnishing mater- ials for the overrun or underrun quantities. Such re- vised consideration shall be determined by agreement between the parties or otherwise by the terms of this Contract as provided under Section 2.12 entitled "Extra Work ". 9.03 Payment. In consideration of the furnishing of all the necessary labor, equipment, and material and the completion of all work by the Contractor, and on the completion of all work and the delivery of all mater- ial embraced in this Contract in full conformity with the specifications and stipulations contained herein, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the amounts set forth in the Proposal attached hereto which has been made a part of this Contract. The Contractor hereby agrees to receive such amounts in full payment for furnishing all material and all labor required for the aforesaid work, for all expense incurred by him, and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this Contract, the attached specifications, and requirements of the Engineer. 9.04 Monthly Estimates and Payments. On or about the fifth day of each month the Engineer will make an approxi- mate estimate of the value of work done in conformity with the plans and specifications during the previous calendar month. The Contractor shall furnish to the Engineer such detailed information as he may request to aid him as a guide in the preparation of monthly estimates. After each such estimate shall have been approved by the Owner, the Owner shall pay to the Con- tractor 90 percent of the amount of such estimated sum on or before the 15th day of said month. It is understood, however, that in case the whole work is near to completion and some unexpected or unusual delay occurs due to no fault or neglect on the part of the Contractor, the Owner may, upon written recommen- dation of the Engineer, pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained percentage to the Contractor. 9.05 Certificates of Completion. Within 10 days after the Contractor has given the Engineer notice that the work has been completed the Engineer shall inspect the work and satisfy himself by examination and test that the work has been finally and fully completed in accor- dance with the plans, specifications and Contract. If GC -24 so, the Engineer shall issue a Contract Completion Certificate to the Owner and the Contractor. Such certificate when issued shall constitute final accep- tance of the work covered under this Contract. 9.06 Final Estimate and Payment. After the Contract Com- pletion Certificate has been issued the Engineer shall proceed to make final measurements and to prepare a final estimate of the work done and materials furnish- ed under this Contract and the value thereof. The Engineer shall certify the Final Estimate and submit it to the Owner within five (5) days from the date of the Contract Completion Certificate. The Owner shall pay the Contractor within 15 days from the date of the Contract Completion Certificate the entire sum shown due on the certified Final Estimate prepared by the Engineer after deducting all amounts to be kept and retained under any provision of this Contract. However, it is to be specifically under- stood that the final payment will not be paid by the Owner to the Contractor under any circumstances until the Notarized Affidavit required by Section 9.07 en- titled "Notarized Affidavit ", has been submitted to the Engineer. All prior estimates and payments shall be subject to correction in the final estimate and payment; but in the absence of error or manifest mistake, it is agreed that all estimates, when approved by the Owner, shall be conclusive evidence of the work done and materials furnished. 9.07 Notarized Affidavit. Before final payment for the work by the Owner the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer a notarized affidavit in duplicate stating under oath that all subcontractors, vendors, and other persons or firms who have furnished or performed labor or furnished materials for the work have been fully paid or satisfactorily secured. Such affidavit shall bear or be accompanied by a statement, signed by the Surety Company who provided the performance bond for the work, to the effect that said Surety Company con- sents to final payment to the Contractor being made by the Owner. 9.08 Release of Liability. The acceptance by the Contrac- tor of the last payment shall operate as and shall be a release to the Owner and every officer and agent thereof from all claims and liability hereunder for anything done or furnished for or relating to the work or for any act or neglect of the Owner or of any per- son relating to or affecting the work. GC -25 9.09 Contractor's Obligation. Neither the Contract Comple- tion Certificate nor the final payment nor any provi- sion in the Contract Documents shall relieve the Con- tractor of the obligation for fulfillment of any war- ranty which may be required in the Contract Docu- ments. 9.10 Payments Withheld. The Owner may, on account of sub- sequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any payment to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of: a. Defective work not remedied. b. Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims. c. Failure of the Contractor to make payments proper- ly to subcontractors or for material or labor. d. Damage to another contractor. When the above grounds are removed or the Contractor provides a Surety Bond satisfactory to the Owner, which will protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.

Site work for the 2,500,000 gallon ground storage tank located at the Southeast Pump Station site shall be limited to the existing fenced site and those areas disturbed by construction. 01 -02 CLEARING The site indicated on the drawings shall be cleared of obstructions within the proposed area which will interfere with the construction operations, except do not damage or remove trees larger than 3" trunk diameter at base that are 5 feet or greater away from the proposed tank foundation. Branches and limbs of such trees within 5' of the tank founda- tion may be trimmed up as determined by the Owner or his representative to allow for the installation of the proposed facilities. 01 -03 EXCAVATION The excavation shall conform to the dimensions and elevations indicated on the drawings for the tank. Materials required for fills in excess of that pro- duced by normal grading operations shall be fur- nished by the Contractor. 01 -04 MATERIALS (a) Topsoil - Provided by the Booster Pump Station Contractor. (b) Excess Material - The removal of excess mater- ial from excavation, not required or unsuit- able for backfill, shall be the responsibility of the Tank Contractor. (c) Borrow Material - Borrow material shall be selected to meet the requirements and condi- tions for the particular fill or backfill for which it is to be used. The acquisition and purchase of required borrow material shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. 01-1 01 -05 - FILLING Where concrete slabs are placed on earth, all loam and organic or other undesirable material shall be removed. Where broken stone, sand or gravel is used for fill, it shall be placed in layers not exceeding 8" in thickness and thoroughly compacted with hand or machine tampers or other approved methods. Where earth is used for fill, it shall be placed in layers not exceeding 6" in depth. Each layer shall be uniformly spread, moistened as required, and then compacted. Compaction shall be done by a power roller or other manner approved by the Engineer. The subgrade shall be brought to a reasonable true and even plane. 01 -06 DRAINAGE Earthwork shall be accomplished in such a manner that the area within the existing fenced area will be continually and effectively drained. Grading shall be done to direct drainage away from slabs, foundations, roads and structures. Low areas shall be filled to prevent ponding of water. 01 -07 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT Measurement and payment for all site work shall be included in the lump sum price bid on the contract for the item of work of which this is a component part. 01 -2 SECTION 02 - CONCRETE 02 -01 GENERAL Concrete consisting of portland cement, concrete aggregate, sand and water will be designated by a symbol consisting of a number, a letter and a num- ber. The first number will be the number of sacks of cement per cubic yard, and the last number the compressive strength at 28 days expressed in pounds per square inch. A sack of cement shall be defined as 94 pounds. The concrete shall be 6.0 -4000 un- less otherwise specified. Compressive strength tests where specified herein, shall be performed in accordance with ASTM C -39. 02 -02 SCOPE The Contractor shall be responsible for providing the mix design to the Engineer for approval. This section of the specifications shall include all labor and materials to construct all concrete work as shown on drawings, herein specified, or both including the following: All footings, slabs, floors, walls, beams, sup- ports, walks, pedestals, curbs, vaults and other concrete items, complete with metal reinforcement. All concrete finishes and textures. All formwork, formwork supports, formwork coatings and soaking, screens and levels required, and form- work removal. Installing all inserts, grounds, dowels, blocks, sleeves and anchors, and safety threads as shown and /or specified in this or other sections. Slab waterproofing. 02 -03 PORTLAND CEMENT All cement to be used or furnished shall be Type I, portland cement, conforming to ASTM C -150 unless otherwise specified. The Contractor shall furnish a certificate of compliance signed by the manufac- turer identifying the cement and stating that the cement delivered conforms to ASTM C -150. 02 -1 02 -05 WATER Whenever suitable facilities, approved by the Engi- neer, are available for handling and weighing bulk cement, such facilities shall be used. Otherwise, the cement shall be delivered in original unopened sacks that have been filled by the manufacturer. They shall be plainly marked with the manufactur- er's name or brand and cement type. Each sack shall contain 94 pounds of cement. Cement shall be stored in such a manner as to per- mit ready access for the purpose of inspection and sampling, and suitably protected against contamina- tion or moisture. Should any cement show evidence of contamination, or be otherwise unsuitable, it shall not be used. All portland cement used in concrete for any indi- vidual structure shall be of the same brand and type unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. 02 -04 AGGREGATES Aggregates shall be sand and concrete aggregates conforming to the requirements prescribed in ASTM C -33 coarse aggregate gradation size number 467, and shall be approved by the Engineer prior to use. They shall meet the grading requirements of this subsection. Methods of handling materials resulting in segrega- tion, degradation or the combining of materials which result in any stockpile failing to meet specifications, shall not be permitted. Aggregates which are found to have a silica- releas- ed to alkali- reduced ratio greater than one, when tested in accordance with ASTM C289, may be used only when approved by the Engineer and provided low alkali cement is used. Water used for concrete shall be clear and free from oil, vegetable matter and other deleterious substances. Water shall not contain an amount of impurities that will cause a change in the time of setting of portland cement of more than 25 percent nor a reduction in the compressive strength of mor- tar at fourteen days of more than 5 percent compar- ed to results obtained with distilled water. 02 -2 In conventionally reinforced concrete work, water shall not contain more than 1,000 ppm of chlorides calculated as Cl, nor more than 1,000 ppm of sul- fates calculated as SO4. In non - reinforced concrete work, water shall not contain more than 2,000 ppm of chlorides calculated as Cl, no more than 1,500 ppm of sulfates calculat- ed as SO4. 02 -06 ADMIXTURES No admixtures of any type shall be used unless authorized by the Engineer. When an admixture is permitted or specified, it shall be measured accu- rately into each batch or load in liquid form by a mechanical dispensing device and method approved by the Engineer. 02 -07 PROPORTIONING Aggregates and cement shall be proportioned by weight. Proportioning shall consist of combining the aggre- gates, each stored in a separate bin in the various gradations prescribed, with cement and water. Weigh hoppers shall be charged from bins located directly over them or from conveyor belts. When conveyor belts are used, there shall be a separate belt for each size aggregate. There shall be an approved moisture meter installed to indicate the moisture in the sand. Bulk cement shall be weighed in an individual hop- per and shall be kept separate from the aggregates until the batch ingredients are discharged into the mixer drum. The cement hopper shall be attached to a separate scale for individual weighing. The amount of water to be added to the mixture shall be measured and discharged rapidly into the mixing drum through a valve with a positive cut- off. When water is measured by weight it shall be weighed on a separate scale. All weighing or metering devices, except moisture meters, used for proportioning materials shall be accurate to within one percent. They shall be sealed and certified by the recognized, legal Seal- er of Weights and Measures. These certifications 02 -3 shall be dated within the past 12 months and shall be renewed whenever required by the Engineer. The moisture meter shall be accurate to within 1/2 of one percent moisture. Whenever portable bunkers are set up at a new location, the scale assemblies shall be inspected and certified regardless of the date the scales were last tested. Scales utilized in proportioning shall be either springless dial or multiple beam type. Scale grad- uations shall be no greater than the following: Aggregate Scales 25 lbs. Cement Scales 5 lbs. Water Scales 5 lbs. All scales shall be of such size and so arranged that they may be read easily from the operator's platform. If a multiple beam type scale is used, the scale shall be provided with an indicator operated by the main beam which will give positive visible evidence of over or under weight. The indicator shall be so designed that it will operate during the addition of the last 400 pounds of any weighing. The over travel of the indicator hand shall be at least one -third of the loading travel. Indicators shall be enclosed against moisture and dust. Weighing equipment shall be insulated against vib- ration and movement of other operating equipment in the plant. When the entire plant is running, the scale reading at cut -off shall not vary from the weight designated by the Engineer by more than one percent (1%) for cement, one percent (1%) for water, one and one -half percent (1 -1/2%) for any size of aggregate, nor one percent (1%) for the total aggregate in any batch. 02 -08 MIXING Machine mixing will be required in all cases other than those in which it would obviously prove to be impractical, in which event hand mixing will be permitted. Mixing shall be commenced as soon as possible after the cement is placed in contact with the aggregates, but in no event shall the interven- ing period exceed 30 minutes. 02 -4 All concrete mixers shall be of such design and construction and so operated as to provide a tho- roughly and properly mixed concrete in which the ingredients are uniformly distributed. Mixers shall be maintained in proper and serviceable work- ing condition and any part or portion thereof that is out of order, or becomes worn to such extent as to detrimentally affect the quality of mixing, shall be promptly repaired or replaced. 02 -09 CONCRETE CONSISTENCY The amount of water added at the mixer shall be regulated to take into account the free water in the aggregates. Free water is defined as the total water minus the water absorbed by the aggregate in a saturated surface -dry condition. The amount of water used in the mixture shall not exceed the minimum amount necessary to permit prac- tical placement and consolidation of the concrete, and unless otherwise authorized by the Engineer, shall be that required to produce concrete with a slump within the range shown as nominal in the fol- lowing table: Type of Work Nominal Slump Maximum Slump (inches) (inches) Concrete Pavement 0 -2 Non - reinforced Concrete 0 -3 Reinforced Concrete Structures Heavy Sections 0 -3 Thin Sections & Columns 0 -4 Concrete Placed under Water 6 -8 02 -5 3 4 5 6 9 The concrete used in the work shall not have a slump greater than that shown as maximum above, nor a free water content greater than 312 pounds per cubic yard of concrete. When adverse or difficult conditions affect the placement of concrete, the Engineer may authorize a greater slump to be used, provided both the water and cement are increased. Water shall be added at a ratio not to exceed 30 pounds per sack of added cement per cubic yard of concrete, and such addi- tional water and cement shall be at the Contrac- tor's expense. The consistency of concrete shall be determined in accordance with ASTM C -143. If slump tests of individual samples taken at approximately the 1/4 and 3/4 points of the dis- charge differ by more'than two inches (2 "), the mixer will not be acceptable for further use until the condition is corrected. 02 -10 TRANSIT MIXERS The type, capacity, and manner of operation of the mixing and transporting equipment for ready -mix concrete shall conform to the current ASTM C -94 standard; "Standards for Operation of Truck Mixers and Agitators of the National Ready -Mixed Concrete Association" and the "Truck Mixer and Agitators Standards of the Truck Mixer Manufacturers Bureau ". Transit mix concrete trucks shall be equipped with an automatic device for recording the number of revolutions of the drum during the mixing period. Each mixer and agitator shall have attached thereto in a prominent place, a metal plate or plates, installed by the manufacturer on which is plainly marked the capacity of the drum in terms of the volume of mixed concrete and the speed of rotation for the agitating and mixing speeds of the mixing drum or blades. Each mixer shall have an identification number painted on the truck in such a location that it can be easily read from the batching platform. The total volume of materials introduced into the mixer shall not exceed the manufacturer's guaran- teed mixing capacity. If the concrete so mixed does not meet the uniformity requirements of this subsection, the amount of materials charged into the mixer shall be reduced. The drum of the mixer shall be completely emptied of any previously mixed load. The proper propor- tions of aggregate, cement, and water for each load of concrete shall be placed in the mixer and shall be mixed therein for not less than 70 nor more than 100 revolutions of the drum or blades at the speed designated by the manufacturer of the equipment as mixing speed. Additional revolutions of the drum shall be at the speed designated by the manufactur- er of the equipment as agitating speed. The revolving of the drum shall be continuous until the concrete is completely emptied from the drum. 02 -6 When concrete is being placed for concrete struc- tures, all wash water shall be emptied from the mixer before any portion of the succeeding load is placed therein. For all other work, the mixer shall be empty or may carry 10 gallons of water in the drum. Adequate control of ready -mixed concrete will normally require that additional water be add- ed and mixed into the batch at the point of dis- charge. Water so added shall be mixed into the load for a minimum mixing time of three (3) min- utes. Water shall not be added to the load during transit. The total elapsed time between the addition of water at the batch plant and discharging the com- pleted mix shall not exceed 90 minutes. Under con- ditions contributing to quick setting, the total elapse time permitted may be reduced by the Engi- neer. The Engineer shall be provided with a legible cer- tified weighmaster's certificate which shall con- tain the following information: Name of vendor Name of contractor Number of cubic yards in the load Actual weights of cement and of each size of aggregate Amount of water added at the plant Amount of water in the aggregate Brand and type of cement Brand and amount of admixture Time and date of batching Space shall be provided on the certificate so that amount of water added on the job may be indicated. 02 -11 HAND MIXING Hand mixed concrete shall be mixed on a water -tight platform or in a mortar box in batches not to ex- ceed 1/3 cubic yard each. The aggregates shall first be spread in a uniform layer over which the required quantity of cement shall be evenly distri- buted. The entire batch shall be turned with sho- vels until the ingredients are thoroughly blended before adding the water. After adding the proper amount of water, the batch shall again be turned with shovels until a uniform consistency is obtain- ed. Methods of hand mixing which allow the loss of mixing water will not be permitted. 02 -7 02 -12 TRANSPORTING BATCHED MATERIALS AND MIXED CONCRETE The compartments of trucks or other equipment used for the purpose of transporting proportioned dry aggregate and cement, or mixed concrete, shall be suitably constructed to adequately protect and pre- vent loss or leakage of the contents during charg- ing, transit or discharging. 02 -13 STEEL REINFORCEMENT FOR CONCRETE 02 -13.1 General The following specifications set forth the require- ments for bar, wire, and wire mesh reinforcement. The reinforcement shall conform accurately to the dimensions and details indicated on the plans or otherwise prescribed. Before being placed in any concrete work, it shall be cleaned thoroughly of all rust, mill scale, mortar, oil, dirt, or coating of any character which would be likely to destroy, reduce, or impair its proper bonding with the con- crete. 02 -13.2 Reinforcing Steel Unless otherwise specified, reinforcing steel shall be Grade 60 billet steel conforming to ASTM A -615. Varying grades shall not be used interchangeably in structures. Steel bending processes shall conform to the re- quirements of ACI -318.

The joint shall be blown out with high pressure compressed air to remove all residue. 02 -10 At the time of applying the joint sealant, the joint shall be surface dry, and acceptable to the Engineer. No sealant shall be placed during un- suitable weather or when the atmospheric tempera- ture is below 50 ° F, or when weather conditions indicate that the temperature may fall below 32 ° F within 24- hours. The joint shall be filled from the bottom to the top without formation of voids. The top of the finished joint seal shall be between 1/4 -inch and 3/8 -inch below the finish surface. At no time shall the emulsion be subjected to a temperature below 40 ° F. Prior to application, the joint sealant may be warmed if necessary to permit proper filling of the joints. The heating shall be carefully controlled to avoid overheating of any part of the container or mixture and under no cir- cumstances shall the emulsion be heated to a temp- erature greater than 130 ° F. Immediately before applying the sealant, the emul- sion shall be mixed with the proper amount of paste setting agent. The components shall be mixed, pre- ferably with a power mixer, for 5- minutes to pro- duce a homogeneous material. 02 -14.5 Concrete Curing Compound Curing compound shall consist of a liquid which, when applied to fresh concrete by means of a spray gun, will form an impervious membrane over the exposed surfaces of the concrete. Mats and poly - plastic sheets may be used. The membrane may be either asphaltic or paraffin derivatives to which other water - proofing materials may have been added. Concrete curing compounds shall be clear or translucent with red fugitive dye. Curing time shall be a minimum of five (5) days with temperature above 50 ° F.

Concrete for use in work con- structed under this Section shall conform to the requirements herein. Safe and suitable ladders shall be provided to per- mit access to all portions of the work. The compressive strength of the concrete referred to in this section will be based on the results of two tests from 6" X 12" concrete test cylinders made and tested by the Engineer in accordance with ASTM C -31 and C -39. The cylinders shall be cured in accordance with ASTM C -31. 02 -12 02 -15.2 Subgrade for Concrete Structures Earth subgrade upon which concrete is placed shall be firm and free from water. Ground water shall be kept below subgrade until the concrete has set. When the subgrade is in dry earth, it shall be tho- roughly dampened with water to ensure that no mois- ture will be absorbed from the fresh concrete. 02 -15.3 Forms When the design details for the project provide for the construction of filter or drain material con- sisting of gravel (or combination of gravel and sand), which material will be subgrade for con- crete, the placing of steel reinforcement and placement of concrete shall follow the installation of the filter or drain material as closely as prac- tical. The filter or drain material shall be kept de- watered to the extent necessary to prevent any portion of concrete materials being deposited in water. When the concrete is to be deposited on rock, the rock shall be fully uncovered, cleaned, and its surface shall be removed to a depth sufficient to expose sound rock. Bedrock shall be roughly level- ed -off or cut to approximately horizontal and ver- tical steps. Seams in the rock shall be grouted under pressure or otherwise treated as the Engineer may direct. Forms shall be of suitable material and of a type, size, shape, quality, and strength to ensure con- struction as designed. The forms shall be true to line and grade, mortar tight, and sufficiently rigid to resist deflection during placing of the concrete. The responsibility for their adequacy shall rest with the Contractor. All dirt, chips, sawdust, nails and other foreign matter shall be completely removed from forms before any concrete is deposited therein. The surfaces of forms shall be smooth and free from irregularities, dents, sags and holes that would deface the finished surfaces. Forms previously used shall be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, mortar and foreign matter before being re -used. Before concrete is placed in forms, all inside sur- faces of the forms shall be thoroughly treated with 02 -13 releasing agent as specified herein. Care shall be exercised that no releasing agent is deposited on previously placed concrete. Forms for all surfaces that will not be completely enclosed or hidden below the permanent surface of the ground shall be made of surfaced lumber, or material which will provide a surface at least equal to surfaced lumber or plywood. Any lumber or material which becomes badly checked or warped, prior to placing concrete, shall not be used. Forms for all exposed surfaces shall be constructed of plywood or an approved equal. Plywood for forms shall be Exterior Type, of the grade "Concrete -Form Exterior ", conforming to the specifications of the U. S. Department of Commerce, National Bureau of Standards, Commercial Standards, latest edition. plywood shall be furnished and placed in 48 inch width sand in uniform lengths of not less than 96 inches, except where the dimension of the member formed is less than the specified panel dimension. Plywood shall be placed with the grain of the outer plies in the direction of the longest span. Where plywood is attached directly to the studs or joists, the panels shall be not less than 5/8 inch thick, and the studs or joists shall be spaced not more than 12 inches, center -to- center. Plywood less than 5/8 inch thick, otherwise conforming to the requirements specified herein, may be used with a continuous backing of 3/4 inch sheeting. All form panels shall be placed in a neat symmetrical pattern with the horizontal joists level and con- tinuous. All joints shall be filled with an approved quick - setting compound and finished flush with the interior of the form. Wooden forms for copings and curbs shall have a thickness of not less than 1 -5/8 inches and a width of not less than the full depth of coping or curb. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, all sharp edges shall be chamfered with 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch triangular fillets. Forms for curved surfaces shall be so constructed and placed that the finish- ed surface will not deviate from the arc of the curve by more than the tolerance shown on the Plans. 02 -14 Forms shall be so constructed that portions, where finishing is required, may be removed without dis- turbing portions of forms to remain in place. Forms for girders and slabs shall be cambered as may be required by the Engineer. Forms shall, as far as practicable, be so con- structed that the form marks will conform to the general line of the structure. Form clamps or bolts, approved by the Engineer, shall be used to fasten forms. The use of twisted wire loop ties to hold forms in position will not be permitted, nor shall wooden spreaders be used unless authorized by the Engineer. Clamps or bolts shall be of sufficient strength and number to pre- vent spreading of the forms. They shall be the break -off type so that they can be entirely removed or cut back 1 inch below the finished surface of the concrete. All forms for outside surfaces shall be constructed with stiff wales at right angles to the studs, and all form clamps or bolts shall ex- tend through and fasten such wales. Form work shall be approved prior to placement of concrete in the form. 02 -15.4 Removal of Forms The periods of time for form removal set forth herein are permissive only and subject to the Con- tractor assuming all risks that may be involved. The time periods are minimum with no allowance therein for external loads. At times of low temp- erature, or other adverse conditions, the Engineer may require the forms to be kept in place for long- er periods of time. The time periods are predicated on the use of con- crete to which no admixtures have been added. No forms shall be removed until approval of Engi- neer is obtained. Forms shall be stripped after the required time and projecting wire snapped off. Removal shall not proceed faster than the required finishing procedure can be completed. Vertical forms shall not be disturbed for at least twenty -four (24) hours after last concrete in walls is placed, except as authorized by the Engineer. 02 -15 Forms shall remain in place a minimum of twenty - four (24) hours and be removed only after Engi- neer's approval. 02 -15.5 Falsework All falsework shall be designed and constructed to provide the necessary rigidity and to support the loads. Falsework for the support of a superstruc- ture shall be designed to support the loads that would be imposed if the entire superstructure were placed at one time. All falsework, staging, walkways, forms, ladders, cofferdams, and similar accessories shall equal or exceed the minimum requirements of the State Divi- sion of Industrial Safety. Compliance with such requirements shall not relieve the Contractor from full responsibility for the adequacy of safety measures. 02 -15.6 Placing Reinforcement Before placing reinforcing steel, the Contractor shall submit a reinforcing steel placing plan for approval of the Engineer. Reinforcing bars shall be accurately placed as shown on the plans and shall be firmly and securely held in position in accordance with Concrete Rein- forcing Steel Institute "Recommended Practice for Placing Reinforcing Bars ", and by using concrete or metal chairs, spacers, metal hangers, supporting wires and other approved devices of sufficient strength to resist crushing under full load. Metal chairs which extend to the surface of the concrete (except where shown on the plans) and wooden sup- ports, shall not be used.

GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION FOR PROPOSED SOUTHEAST ROUND ROCK BOOSTER PUMP STATION WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS REPORT NO. H- 6 -A101 I. INTRODUCTION This report transmits the findings of the geotechnical investi- gation performed at the referenced site. The purpose of this investigation was to define and evaluate the general subsurface conditions in the immediate vicinity of the proposed booster pump station building and ground storage tanks. Specifically, the study was planned to determine the following: 1. Subsurface stratigraphy within the limits of explor- atory borings. 2. Classification, strength and compressibility char- acteristics of the foundation strata. 3. Suitable foundation systems and allowable loading pressures. 4. The Potential Vertical Rise (PVR) of critical soil strata. 5. Construction requirements for the alteration of existing site conditions. 6. Construction requirements for the placement of necessary earth embankments or fills. This study was performed in accordance with the authorization of Mr. Douglas Hearn with Haynie 6 Kallman, Inc. in Round Rock, Texas. To accomplish the intended purposes, a three phase study Maxim Engineers Inc. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 t 2 program was conducted which included: a) a field investigation consisting of four (4) exploratory test borings with samples obtained at selected intervals; b) a laboratory testing program designed to evaluate the expansive and strength characteristics of the subsurface soils; and c) an engineering analysis of the field and test data for foundation and other soil related design recom- mendations. No additional analysis was requested or performed. A brief description of the various field and laboratory tests and their respective results is included in the Appendix of this report. II. SITE LOCATION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION The site of this investigation was located south of Brushy Creek, generally northeast of the SouthCreek development in Williamson County, Texas. The corner of this site were marked in the field by Haynie & Kallman, Inc. Present plans indicate that a booster pump station building and a 2.5 million gallon ground storage tank are proposed at this site. In addition, future plans include an additional one million gallon ground storage tank to be constructed at this site. Structural loads and finished elevations of the proposed struc- tures were not known at the time this investigation was performed, however, they are expected to be moderate and near existing grade, respectively. If the assumptions concerning the finished eleva- tions or structural loads of the proposed structures are not valid, this office should be notified to review the effects it may have on the design recommendations submitted herein. Maxim Engineers Inc. 3 III. DESCRIPTION OF SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The subsurface conditions were relatively uniform with respect to type and consistency across this site. The soils encountered at the referenced location were alluvial deposits underlain by limestone belonging to the Buda Limestone formation. The near surface soils encountered in the vicinity of the proposed structures consisted of 13.5 to 14.5 feet of dark brown and light brown clays, sandy clays, clayey sands, sands, and gravel under- lain by the Buda limestone formation. The Buda limestone strata extended to the completion depth of the deepest test borings 24 feet below existing grade. IV. SUBSURFACE WATER CONDITIONS At the time this investigation was performed, groundwater was encountered at depths ranging 12.5 to 13.5 feet below existing grade at the borehole locations. The subsurface water regime is subject to change with variations in climatic conditions. Future construction activities may also alter the surface and subsurface drainage characteristics of this site. Therefore, the depth to groundwater should be verified just prior to construction. If there is a noticeable change from the conditions reported herein, Maxim Engineers, Inc. should be notified immediately to review the effect it may have on the design recommendations. It is not possible to accurately predict the magnitude of subsurface water fluctuations that might occur based upon short -term observations. Maxim Engineers Inc 4 V. ANALYSES AND RECOMMENDATIONS The professional services which have been performed, the findings obtained and the recommendations prepared were accomplished in accordance with currently accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices. The possibility always exists that the subsurface conditions at the site may vary somewhat from those encountered in the boreholes. The number of test borings and spacing was chosen in such a manner as to decrease the possibility of undiscovered abnormalities, while considering the nature of loading, size, and cost of the project. If there are any unusual conditions differing significantly from those described herein, Maxim Engineers, Inc. should be notified to review the effects on the performance of the designed foundation. The recommendations given in this report were prepared exclusively for the use of Haynie and Kallman, Inc. or their consultants. The information supplied herein is applicable only for the design of the previ- ously described structures to be constructed at locations indi- cated at this site and should not be used for any other purpose. This firm is not responsible for the conclusions, opinions, or recommendations made by others based on the information submitted herein. 1. Support of Structural Loads Structural loads imposed by the proposed ground storage tanks may be supported by individual and /or continuous spread footings or a mat foundation system founded at a depth of three (3) feet below surrounding grade within native soil. Maxim Engineers Inc 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 • 1 5 An allowable soil bearing pressure of 3,750 pounds per square foot may be utilized for design purposes. Structural loads imposed by the proposed booster pump station building may be supported by a stiffened slab and grade beam (waffle type) foundation system designed by a structural engineer to withstand the estimated differential vertical soil movement expected at this site. An allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,400 pounds per square foot may be utilized for grade beams founded a minimum of twelve (12) inches below surrounding grade. Care should be taken to insure that the foundation unit excavations are free of loose material and /or water prior to placing concrete. Foundation units designed and constructed using the information submitted herein will have a factor of safety in excess of three (3) against shear type failure and differential settlement of 0.75 of an inch or less. 2. Soil Movement The near surface soils encountered at this site exhibited plasticity indices ranging from non - plastic to 27. These clays should be considered volumetrically unstable, capable of moderate differential vertical movement when subjected to in situ moisture fluctuations. The amount of the moisture induced differential vertical movement is expected to range from 1.00 to 1.50 inches at this site. Differential vertical Maxim Engineers Inc 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 t 1 1 l 6 movement may exceed the estimated magnitude if water is allowed to accumulate and remain near the structures for extended periods of time during or after construction. In order to reduce potential damage to the proposed structures created by moisture induced soil movement, it is recommended that the foundation systems be designed sufficiently rigid to resist the differential vertical soil movement expected at this site. Maxim Engineers Inc. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 t i FIELD AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS PROPOSED SOUTHEAST ROUND ROCK BOOSTER PUMP STATION WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS REPORT NO. H- 6 -A101 Al I. Field Investigation Soil conditions at the project site were determined by four (9) intermittent and core sample borings which were drilled during January, 1986. The locations of these borings are shown on the sheet entitled Plan of Borings of this report. Descriptions of the various strata encountered in each of the borings and the depths at which samples were obtained are presented on the individual Log of Borings. Undisturbed specimens of cohesive soils were obtained with thin - walled Shelby tube samplers (ASTM D 1587). The soil specimens were extruded from the tubes in the field, logged, sealed and packaged to maintain in situ conditions. Double tube core barrels and hard formation drilling bits were used to sample the primary formation. These samples were also removed from the sampler, logged and sealed for transport to the laboratory. Disturbed samples of the noncohesive granular or stiff to hard cohesive materials have been obtained utilizing a two (2) inch O.D. split -spoon sampler in conjunction with the Standard Penetration Test (ASTM D 1586). This test employs a 190 pound Maxim Engineers Inc. 1 1 1 1 • 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 t { A2 hammer that drops a free fall vertical distance of 90 inches, driving the split -spoon sampler into the material. The number of blows required for 18 inches of penetration is recorded and the value for the last 12 inches, or the penetration obtained from 100 blows, is reported as the Standard Penetration Value (N) at the appropriate depth on the attached Log of Borings. II. Laboratory Soils Tests Laboratory soil tests were performed on samples recovered from the borings to verify visual classification and determine the perti- nent engineering properties of the soils encountered. Atterberg Limits, Moisture Content, Unit Dry Weight, and Percent Passing a U.S. No. 200 Sieve Tests were performed on representa- tive samples in order to classify them according to the Unified Soil Classification System. Unconfined Compressive Strength tests were performed on selected undisturbed soil and limestone samples to determine the ultimate unconfined compressive strength of the different subsurface strata encountered. The results of all the laboratory and field tests are tabulated on the Log of Borings presented in the Appendix. Maxim Engineers Inc GENERAL CONSTRUCTION RECOMMENDATIONS PROPOSED SOUTHEAST ROUND ROCK BOOSTER PUMP STATION WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS REPORT NO. H- 6 -A101 A3 I. Site Preparation Prior to placing any fill material, all existing surface vegeta- tion should be removed. All exposed surfaces should then be scar- ified, watered as required and recompacted to a minimum of 95 per- cent of the maximum dry density as defined by ASTM D 698 (Standard Proctor Test) at a moisture content between the optimum moisture value and five (5) percent above optimum. The site may then be filled to grade using a suitable fill material, free from dele- terious matter. Fill materials should be placed in six (6) to eight (8) inch loose lifts at moisture contents between the optimum and five (5) percent above optimum and each lift compacted to between 93 and 105 percent of the maximum dry density as defined in ASTM D 698. Each lift should be inspected and tested by a qualified engineering technician, supervised by a Geotech- nical Engineer before another lift is added. II. Surface Drainage, Vegetation Drainage should be maintained away from the foundations, both during and after construction. Trees and large shrubs can, by transpiration, remove water from the clays and cause shrinkage of these soils and settlement of the floor slabs. Therefore, any shrubs or trees planted for landscaping should be located at least one and one -half their anticipated mature height away from the proposed structures. Maxim Engineers Inc A4 III. Secondary Design Considerations The following information has been assimilated after examination of numerous problems dealing with similar soil throughout the area. It is presented here for your convenience. If these fea- tures are incorporated in the overall design of the project, the performance of the structure will be improved. A. Roof drainage should be collected by a system of gutters and downspouts and transmitted by a pipe to a storm drainage system or to a paved surface where the water can drain away without entering the soil. B. Sidewalks should not be structurally connected to the struc- tures. They should be sloped away from the structures so that water will be drained away from the structure. C. Surface drainage should be sloped away from the structures on all sides. Water should not be allowed to pond near the structures after the slab has been placed. D. Backfill for utility lines should be carefully placed so that they will be stable. If the backfill is too dense or too dry, swelling may form a mound along the ditch line. If the back - fill is too loose or too wet, settlement may form a sink along the ditch line. Either case is undesirable since several Maxim Engineers Inc. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 AS inches of movement is possible and floor cracks are likely to result. The soils should be processed using the previously discussed compaction criteria. Maxim Engineers Inc.
