No more than 800 feet of trench with pipe in place shall be partially backfilled at any time. 3.8 COMPACTION AND DENSITIES: A. Methods of control and testing of backfill construction to be employed in this work are: 1. Maximum density of the material in trenches shall be determined by AASHTO Designation T 180. 2. Field density of the backfill material in place shall be determined by AASHTO Designation T 238. B. Laboratory and field density tests which, in the opinion of the City, are necessary to establish compliance with the compaction requirements of these specifications, will be conducted at the Owner's expense at intervals indicated in the Compaction Test Schedule on the plans. Tests will be made at depths and locations selected by the City. See Section 01400 for further Testing details. C. Trench backfill which does not comply with the specified densities, as indicated by such tests, shall be reworked and recompacted until the required compaction is secured, at no additional cost to the Owner. The costs for retesting such work shall be paid for by the Contractor. 3.9 ADDITIONAL EXCAVATION AND BACKFILL: A. Where organic material, such as roots, muck, or other vegetative matter, or other material which, in the opinion of the City, will result in unsatisfactory foundation conditions, is encountered below the level of the proposed pipe bedding material, it shall be wholly or partially removed as directed by the City and wasted. Sheeting shall be installed if necessary to maintain pipe trenches within the specified limits. The resulting excavation shall be backfilled with suitable backfill material, placed in six-inch layers, tamped and compacted up to the level of the bottom of the proposed pipe bedding material. Sufficient compaction of this material shall be performed to protect the proposed pipe against settlement. Construction shall then proceed in accordance with the provisions of Article 3.04 Pipe Bedding. B. Additional excavation shall be performed only when ordered by the City.

Additional backfill material, if required, shall be furnished in accordance with the provisions therefor in Article 3.07 3.10 TRENCHING IN EXTREME WATER CONDITIONS: A. General: 1. A combination of conditions in the substrata, water table, or method of disposal may be encountered during the course of the work which make dewatering impossible, or only possible through the use of unusual methods, the cost of which is excessive. When such conditions are encountered, but only after all reasonable means to dewater the excavation have been employed without success, the Contractor, with the concurrence of the City, may elect to employ the following method of construction. The concurrence of the City shall be obtained in writing and shall limit the use of this method of construction to such specific portions of the work as the City shall determine. 2. The construction specifications contained in the preceding parts of this section shall establish the required standards of construction quality for this work. Use of this method of construction described hereinafter shall in no way be construed as relieving the Contractor of his basic responsibility for satisfactory completion of the work. No additional payment will be made to the Contractor for excavation, backfill, sheeting or any costs incurred for work or materials, or any other costs incurred as a result of the use of this method of construction. 3. Subject to all of the requirements stated herein above, including written approval of the City, construction will be permitted in accordance with the following specifications. All requirements of Article 3.01 through Article 3.09, inclusive, of these specifications shall apply to this construction unless otherwise specifically modified herein. B. Removal of Water: The installation of pipe, manholes and appurtenances under water will be permitted and the requirements of Article 3.03 Removal of Water will be waived. C. Excavation: Excavation of pipe trenches to the level of the bottom of the proposed pipe bedding shall be performed in accordance with Article 3.02 Excavation. If rock, such as limerock or other similar hard, cemented material providing firm, unyielding trench bottoms is encountered at the level of the bottom of the proposed pipe bedding, no additional excavation will be required. If material such as sand, marl, or other material which cannot be classified as rock as herein above defined, is encountered at the level of the bottom of the proposed pipe bedding, the pipe trench shall be excavated to an additional depth of 10 inches minimum, below that level. This additional excavation, and the additional backfilling made necessary thereby, is an essential part of this alternate construction method and no additional payment will be made for this work, regardless of the type of material encountered.

Limited knowledge of Broward County plans and specifications to prepare a responsible bid. 7 City of Tamarac Purchasing and Contracts Division In view of the barriers to small disadvantaged business enterprises stated above, it shall be the policy of (company name) to provide opportunity by utilizing the following SDBE program methods to ensure participation on the contracts with Broward County.
