CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />SPECIFICATIONS <br />PROJECT NO.: XX-XXXX <br />PROJECT TITLE <br /> <br />166 <br />pump priming shall be connected to a portable activated carbon scrubber. All engines <br />shall be critically silenced for sound control and regardless of noise level, soundproofing <br />shield not less than eight feet high shall be provided around each engine to absorb noise. <br />100% standby pumping shall be provided. Standby pump shall be sized to match the <br />duty pump. Standby pumping equipment shall be at the site continuously during <br />bypassing to provide standby pumping capacity. <br />Above ground bypass piping shall be high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe, steel or <br />aluminum pipe with grooved couplings. HDPE shall be butt welded and have a <br />minimum wall thickness of SDR 17. For protection against damage, the bypass piping <br />shall be protected in place by barrier or crash cushions when adjacent to traf fic. All <br />temporary connections to existing and new manholes shall be properly covered and <br />sealed to prevent nuisance odors from escaping into the atmosphere. When the bypass <br />piping discharges into a manhole, the discharge pipe shall extend into the manhole, <br />ending at the elevation of the center of the trunk sewer. All valves used on the bypass <br />system shall be open port gate, plug or ball valves. <br />Temporary plugs shall be appropriate for the application. Plugs shall be heavy-duty <br />inflatable type with a steel rod through plug centerline, a retaining plate and an eye-lift on <br />both ends. Plugs shall have a flexible sealing design to compensate for any irregular <br />interior surface of the pipe. <br />Flow-through plugs shall be appropriate for the application and provided with the <br />required configuration to perform the bypass. The flow-through plug shall consist of a <br />flow-through plug and a flexible hose. The flexible hose shall be rubber coated, heavy <br />duty, nylon hose with and enclosed steel helix coil. The flow-through plug shall attach to <br />the flexible hose using high torque, stainless steel pipe clamps. The flow-through plugs <br />shall be equipped with continuous pressure monitoring. <br />The Contractor shall take all necessary precautions, including constant monitoring of <br />bypass pumping to prevent sewage spills due to back-up and/or overflow resulting from <br />breakage or blockage of the bypass system. The Contractor shall provide experienced <br />personnel knowledgeable in the operation of the bypass equipment to monitor each <br />bypass when the bypass is installed and operating. At no time shall the bypass system be <br />left unattended during operation by the designated personnel. <br />The bypass system (all equipment) shall be fully tested prior to commencing bypass <br />operation, including back-up pumps. <br />6.22 SUBMITTALS <br />Sewer main pipe and appurtenance submittals shall include, but not limited to the <br />following manufacturer information: <br />1.
