CITY OF SANTA ANA SPECIFICATIONS PROJECT NO.: XX-XXXX PROJECT TITLE 89 to the most likely point of interference and unless blocked by an impassable obstruction, shall end at the closest upstream or downstream manhole or cleanout structure. Under no circumstances shall the contractor deliver to the City a video of a survey that was otherwise abandoned. If the camera cannot pass the entire sewer reach from its point of insertion, the reach shall be inspected from both directions. The consultant shall notify the City immediately of any such obstruction so that it may be repaired or mitigated by the City and/or the contractor and complete inspection of the pipe may proceed. Television inspection of sewer mains with high volumes of flow (pipe running 1/3 full or more) may, with prior consent of the City, be done at night between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. No added compensation shall be allowed for night work. Notwithstanding, the consultant shall always use whatever mechanical means are available, including modification or changing of the camera wheels or treads, to insure that the image is recorded in an upright, un-rotated position. The City reserves the right to reject any videotape where changes in the orientation of the camera could have been corrected by such modifications or by performing the work during periods of low flow. CCTV inspections shall be delivered in an electronic format (CD/DVD) to the Engineer for review and approval. Cost for video inspection if required, shall be considered as included in other bid items. 4.16 PULL BOXES Pull boxes shall conform to the provisions in Section 86-1.02C, “Pull Boxes,” and Section 87-1.03C, “Installation of Pull Boxes,” of the Caltrans Standard Specifications, Caltrans Standard Plan ES-8, and these Special Provisions.

Pull boxes shall be polymer concrete reinforced with heavy-weave fiberglass and plastic lining. Pull box covers shall be lightweight (Christy Fibrelyte, or approved equal). Pull boxes adjacent to Traffic Signal poles shall have 10 foot ground rod with ground clamp and shall be fastened to bare grounding conductor from Traffic Signal pole. New pull boxes shall not be installed within any curb access ramp. No new pull box shall be located within five feet of a water meter or fire hydrant. Replace sidewalk in-kind to match existing material, color, and pattern, from score mark to score mark after pull boxes have been installed. 505 E Central Ave #B11/6/2024
