DISCUSSION
The existing 10 -inch diameter cast iron water main on 17th Street was installed in the 1930's and
has begun to experience a number of breaks and leaks. Staff monitors the condition of water main
pipelines by assessing critical factors such as age, history of breaks, size, location, and system
redundancy to determine the priority of replacement needs. Based on an analysis of these factors,
the water main on 17th Street between Bristol Street and Broadway has been identified as the
highest priority for replacement due to its high probability of failure and significant consequences
should a failure occur.
Prior to advertising the project for bids, staff considered the impacts of construction on businesses
and regional traffic. A vicinity map in Exhibit 1 shows the relative location of the water main on 17`h
Street to other major city streets. As a result, the project scope was developed to include the
option and flexibility to perform construction during nighttime hours as a base bid, along with the
option to perform the work during standard daytime hours.
Staff recommends that the contract be awarded based on nighttime work. If nighttime work is
performed, all vehicle travel lanes would be open during the daytime, allowing access to
businesses, and would not interfere with critical peak morning and evening commutes. Working
hours for the construction would be 7:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. Nighttime construction would adhere to
the City's noise ordinance at all times; nonetheless, staff will require that noisier construction
activities be limited to before 10:00 p.m.

INSTRUCTIONS
In case of a discrepancy between the correct sum of the individual subtotal amounts and the
total bid amount entered by the BIDDER, the correct sum shall prevail. If a unit price is not

rejected.
BIDDERS INTERESTED IN MORE THAN ONE BID
No person, firm or corporation shall be allowed to make or file or be interested in more than

hereby disqualified from submitting a sub - proposal or quoting prices for other bidders.
Reasonable grounds for believing that any individual, firm, partnership, corporation or
combination thereof is interested in more than one proposal for the work contemplated may

the bid - opening hour stipulated in the Notice Inviting Bids.
Bids may not be withdrawn after said hour without forfeiture of the bid proposal guarantee

Permit & Plan
Prior to beginning any work, if applicable, the Contractor shall prepare and submit a Storm
Water Pollution Prevention Plan ( SWPPP), and a Wet Weather Erosion Control Plan (WWECP) if
the soil will be disturbed during the rainy season (November 1 to April 15).
The SWPPP must be prepared before construction activities begin and must be implemented
year -round throughout construction. A WWECP must be prepared prior to each rainy season,
and must be implemented throughout that rainy season.
The SWPPP and the WWECP shall be developed and implemented in accordance with the
County Wide Storm Water Management Plan, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Permit No. CAS 004001 and any other requirements established by the City. Best
Management Practices (BMP) referenced are from the California Storm Water Best
Management Practice Handbooks (Construction, Municipal and Industrial).
Appendix B provides forms that the Contractor shall complete and certify. The Contractor shall
assess site conditions, identify construction activities with the potential to cause storm water
pollution, and then identify the BMP that will best suit the construction activities. The SWPPP
and the WWECP shall include a site map of the project providing the following information, if
applicable, but not limited to:
(a) The boundary of the construction site(s).
(b) The area of the construction site(s) in acres.

(d) Types and locations of storm water structures, controls, and /or BMP, which
will be built /utilized to control storm water pollution during construction.
(e) Construction and erosion control material storage areas.
(f) Temporary stockpile and construction waste storage areas.
(g) Construction vehicle storage and service areas.
(h) Watershed boundary of off -site areas that drain into the construction site.

The above information should be updated as needed to meet evolving construction conditions.
The Contractor shall coordinate storm water pollution prevention work with all other work

The Engineer will notify the Contractor of the acceptance or rejection of any submitted or
revised SWPPP and /or WWECP in not more than 5 working days. The City will not be liable to
the Contractor for failure to accept all or any portion of an originally submitted or revised

an acceptable SWPPP and /or WWECP. The Contractor may request the Engineer to waive the
requirement for submission of a SWPPP and /or WWECP when the nature of the Contractor's
operation is such that pollution and /or erosion is not likely to occur. Waiver of this
requirement will not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for compliance with the other
provisions of this section. Waiver of the requirement for a SWPPP and /or WWECP will not
preclude requiring submittal of a SWPPP and /or WWECP at a later time if the Engineer deems it
necessary because of the effect of the Contractor' operations.

inspection record shall be submitted to the Engineer within 24 hours of completing the

3. Prior to any shutdown of existing water system, Contractor shall have all necessary
fittings and equipment on site to complete the water main tie -in or abandonment.
4. Shut down shall be scheduled within the selected bids allowable working hours and as
follows:

However, due to the age of the pipe and valves the Contractor should not expect an
absolute shutdown and shall be prepared to employ pumping equipment in the event that
an absolute shutdown cannot be achieved. The City Engineer shall judge the shutdown to
be adequate for the tie -in to proceed as indicated on the plans and specified here in. The
City will not be responsible for any delays due to system shutdown and isolation when an
adequate shutdown can be achieved and no additional compensation will be allowed.
When an extensive water main shutdown is required and an adequate shutdown cannot be
achieved, the Water Department will determine what temporary service connections may
be required. The Contractor shall furnish all necessary appurtenances (i.e. hose, piping,
valves, and water trucks) and associated labor required to provide such temporary service.
All piping and associated equipment used in temporary service connections shall be flushed
and disinfected. All hoses shall be NSF approved.
