The following Special Provisions supplement or modify the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction as referenced and stated hereinafter: PART 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 1 — TERMS, DEFINITIONS, ABBREVIATIONS, UNITS OF MEASURE, AND SYMBOLS 1-2 TERMS AND DEFINITIONS Add the following definition: City — City of Newport Beach Page 1 of 34 SECTION 2 - SCOPE AND CONTROL OF THE WORK 2-1 AWARD AND EXECUTION OF THE CONTRACT At the time of the award and until completion of work, the Contractor shall possess a Class A, General Engineering, Contractor's license. At the start of work and until completion of work, the Contractor and all Subcontractors shall possess a valid Business License issued by the City. Contractor must have past or present experience working directly for the Southern California Edison Company (SCE) constructing underground civil improvements in order to qualify for this contract. 2-5 PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS 2-5.1 General Add the following: The included plans have been prepared by the three utility companies (Southern California Edison Company, AT&T Telephone, and Spectrum). The intent of the project is to use a joint trench to place electrical, telephone and cable television in the ground within the public right-of-way and easements as shown on the plans. The design for the use of joint trench was not optimized or even addressed in some areas. Contractor shall resolve such inconsistencies by identifying a joint trench alignment from the alternatives presented by the owning utilities and then placing all utilities into this joint trench. The resolution of these inconsistencies shall be considered included in the lump sum cost for the work and shall include but not be limited to realignment of main conduit runs, vaults, handholes, pullboxes, risers, service laterals and related facilities. The only exception to this requirement shall be in such places that a joint trench cannot be used because of physical constraints, utility companies design or operational characteristics, safety or where otherwise prohibited by law or other regulation(s). Such coordination work shall be performed in advance of actual construction to allow the utility companies time to provide input. Such work shall also include coordination necessary to align or realign that proposed facilities with existing utilities (such as water, sewer, storm drain, among others) that may be in conflict with the proposed facilities. Note that the advance notice requirements for utility mark -out has been extended to allow Contractor time to plan out the route of the joint trench along the various streets and utility corridors. Do not commence trench excavation until the City's representative has had an opportunity to review and provide input on the final joint trench location and alignment. For undergrounding of AT&T and Spectrum facilities, the Contractor shall comply with AT&T and Spectrum specifications included in the Appendices of these Specifications. Although the Spectrum plans may not clearly specify, please note that a Spectrum service will be required at every property where SCE & AT&T plans show a new underground service lateral. Page 2 of 34 2-5.2 Precedence of Contract Documents If there is a conflict or discrepancy between different Contract Documents, the more stringent requirement as determined by the Engineer shall control. 2-6 WORK TO BE DONE The work necessary for the completion of this contract includes, but is not limited to, mobilization, traffic control, water pollution control, potholing and field verifications of existing utilities, trench construction, dewatering, furnishing and installing conduit with poly -pull ropes including service lateral runs, utility pullboxes, handholes, vaults and all associated items necessary for the conversion of existing overhead and electrical power, telephone, and cable television services to underground locations as required and intended by the Plans, Specifications, and further specified by Southern California Edison, AT&T and Spectrum standards within UNDERGROUND UTILITY ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 113. Any costs resulting from work performed that was directed by Southern California Edison, AT&T and Spectrum engineers, inspectors or other personnel will not be compensated unless said work was approved by the Engineer prior to work commencing. Contractor shall perform all trenching, backfill, pavement restoration, resurfacing and replacement of existing improvements (public or private including but not limited to driveways, fences, walls, signs, landscaping, mailboxes, and other such items) associated with or resulting from the work identified herein. In areas where SCE plans show existing handholes are being upsized to accommodate additional conduits or where new conduits are being installed to accommodate the undergrounding efforts, SCE handhole and intercept work shall be included in the Contractor's bid, however the SCE source contractor for this area (Arizona Pipeline) will be required to install all handholes and intercept vaults where live or dead electrical wires are to be encountered at service handhole and intercept locations. SCE requests that at least three locations be made available when Arizona Pipeline's efforts are required. Contractor is required to give (7) seven calendar days' notice of planned service hand hole or intercept efforts required by Arizona Pipeline. 2-9.1 Permanent Survey Markers Delete the second paragraph and replace with the following: The contractor shall include in their bid a $75,000 allowance for survey work detailed below.

In the event that existing survey monuments are removed or otherwise disturbed during the course of work, the Contractor shall contact the City's representative in the field to confirm that the existing monument has been located, can be removed and the Contractor shall restore the affected survey monuments at his sole expense. If the monument has not yet been located and prior to excavating trenches, Contractor shall allow not more than 2 days for City to locate the monument and tie it out. The Contractor's Licensed Surveyor shall file the required Corner Record or Record of Survey with the County Surveyor upon monument restoration. The cost of any replacement work resulting in a failure by Contractor to notice the City or City's surveyor of the existing monument(s) or allow reasonable time to tie the monument out, shall be deduced from payment(s) due to Contractor. Existing street centerline ties and property corner monuments are to be preserved. The Contractor shall be responsible for the cost of restoring all survey ties and/or monuments damaged by the Work. 2-9.2 Survey Service Delete this section and replace with the following: The underground cable and conduit system will not be staked for line or grade. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to determine the depth of trenching required to maintain the minimum cover required by the utility owner in paved and unpaved areas and also to avoid interference with existing utility lines, mains and services. The drawings may or may not indicate construction of a joint trench in which to place the utilities.

The Contractor shall provide and maintain, at all times during construction, ample means and devices to promptly remove and properly dispose of all water from any source, including groundwater, and water migrating through the bedding of existing sewers or storm drains or other existing utilities, entering the excavations. Costs for dewatering of all water shall be the Contractor's responsibility and shall be included within the Linear Foot Price for Project Dewatering and no additional compensation will be allowed therefor. The Contractor shall confirm that the receiving sewer system has the capacity to take the estimated flows during dry and wet weather conditions and whether or not the water quality is acceptable and will not cause any permit violations. The following discharges are prohibited: oil, grease, fuel, sludge, trash, chemicals, and any other items which would adversely affect water quality. Water shall not be discharged into OCSD sewer facilities during a wet -weather storm event. For all dewatering operations, each disposal point shall have a calibrated, non-resettable totalizing effluent flow meter with a flow accuracy of plus or minus 5 percent to track the dewatering discharges. The Contractor shall submit weekly reports showing total amount of discharge at each point with meter readings and other data necessary to support the quantity reported. Also, an accessible sample collection point shall be provided immediately upstream of all points of discharge. The Contractor shall provide OCSD's Source Control staff and Page 15 of 34 Engineer unrestricted access to the facility and site to inspect, monitor, or verify compliance with OCSD's Permit requirements. All dewatering operations require the use of a desilting tank with a stainless -steel sampling port and a drip container so that the Engineer may collect periodic dewatering samples. Additionally, the desilting tanks shall be covered with sturdy and air -tight covers so no odors can escape, and no illegal dumping is possible. The air -tight covers shall be maintained throughout the dewatering period, and only removed when necessary for silt removal or other maintenance activities. The desilting tank shall be located in a safe and easily accessible location. The system used for desilting the water shall be a baffled structure and shall provide not less than 5 minutes detention time and have a "flow - through" velocity not exceeding 0.2 foot per second at the anticipated peak flow. The desilting box shall be cleaned as required to maintain the detention time and flow -through limitations specified above. The intent is to avoid any addition of soil materials from dewatering operations into the receiving sewer system. All dewatering operations with detectable levels of TTO's, or evidence of TTO's in the extraction zone, or significant amounts of volatile organics, may require the use of granular activated carbon (GAC) filters in lead -lag arrangement or other suitable technology to meet OCSD's TTO limit of 0.58 mg/L and mitigate an Lower Explosion Limit (LEL) event. Note that additional particle filtration is typically provided upstream of the GAC filters to prevent fouling and to extend the life of the carbon. The GAC filters shall be equipped with a stainless -steel sampling port and a drip container on the final stage discharge outlet so that the Engineer may collect periodic dewatering samples. Additionally, the GAC filters shall be air -tight so no odors can escape, and no illegal dumping is possible. The air -tight covers shall be maintained throughout the dewatering period, and only removed when necessary for carbon change out or other maintenance activities. The GAC filters shall be located in a safe and easily accessible location. Each GAC filter shall provide enough detention time to meet OCSD's TTO limit of 0.58 mg/L. The carbon shall be changed in the lead GAC filter when the TTO as measured in the discharge of the lead GAC filter is at 0.58 mg/L, or as required. The GAC filters and additional particle filtration equipment upstream of the GAC filters shall be cleaned as required to maintain the detention time and flow -through limitations as specified above. The intent is to avoid any addition of soil materials from dewatering operations into the receiving sewer system or fouling of the GAC filter carbon media. The method of pretreatment and point of disposal of water shall be subject to the District's Source Control staff and the Engineer's approval." If the contractor chooses to discharge construction site groundwater to the storm drain system, the contractor will be required to submit weekly flow data and monthly sample testing per the table shown below and meet all other requirements per the City's De Minimis Waste Discharge Permit with the California Regional Water Quality Control Board.

Add the following subsection: 306-3.1.1 Trench Excavation and Subgrade General: Trenches shall be excavated to a line and grade and be of a minimum width necessary for proper conduit installation. Where exclusive trench work is needed, the minimum conduit cover identified in each utility owner's current standard specification or installation guide may be followed. All trenches called for to be excavated in a utility easement which runs through private or public property shall be hand dug, unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. Except as otherwise provided herein, excavation for the improvements shall be in open - cut trenches. The maximum length of open trench shall not be greater than 300 feet, or the distance to accommodate the amount of conduit installed in a single day, whichever is the lesser. The distance is the collective length including excavation, conduit laying and backfill which has not been temporarily resurfaced. Page 29 of 34 Trench width shall be outside diameter plus twelve (12) inches minimum or outside diameter plus twenty (20) inches maximum, including thickness of trench shoring or sheeting in conformance with City Standard Drawing No. STD-106-L. Access to Trenches: Safe and suitable ladders which project two feet above the top of the trench shall be provided for all trenches over five feet in depth. One ladder shall be provided for each one -hundred feet of open trench, or fraction thereof, and be so located that workmen in the trench need not move more than fifty feet to a ladder. Public Access: Whenever required for the convenience of the public or individual residents, at saw crossings, at private driveways, or elsewhere, the Contractor shall provide suitable temporary bridges over unfilled excavations, except in such cases as the Contractor shall secure the written consent of the individuals or public authorities concerned to omit such temporary bridges. Contractor shall refer to Section 601-1 of the Standard Specifications and these Special Provisions for steel plates for temporary bridges. Temporary Surfacing: Immediately after completion of backfilling in paved streets and roadways, a two-inch layer of temporary asphalt concrete paving, the mix thereof to be approved by the City, shall be placed and rolled over the backfill. Temporary surfacing shall be of such quality and so placed and maintained as to provide a smooth surface level with adjacent existing paving. At no time shall excavation operations advance ahead of temporary paving by distance of 300 feet, Temporary surfacing shall remain in place until permanent resurfacing is placed. All streets and roads used shall be kept free from dust, mud, rocks, and gravel. Drainage: The Contractor shall take care of drainage water from the construction operations, and of storm water and wastewater reaching the site of the work from any source. The Contractor shall be responsible for any damage to persons or property on or off the right-of-way due to such drainage water or to interruption or diversion of such storm water on account of his operations. Contractor shall refer to Section 7-8.6 of the Standard Specifications and these Special Provisions for water pollution control. Supports: Excavations shall be supported in a safe manner meeting the requirements of the California Division of Industrial Safety. For supports for excavations five feet or greater in depth, Contractor shall submit a trench shoring plan in compliance with Section 306-3 of the Standard Specifications and these Special Provisions. Excess Excavation: Whenever excavation is made below the required trench bottom, suitable and approved bedding material (in conformance with City Standard Drawing No. STD-106-L and Section 306-6 of the Standard Specifications) shall be used to bring the trench back to proper grades. Properly moistened approved bedding material shall be deposited in the trench in uniform layers not exceeding six (6) inches thick and compacted to 90% minimum relative compaction. The material shall be compacted by use of power driven tampers of an approved type and in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer. The trench bottom shall then be prepared to receive the conduits or other such structures as indicated by the plans. Page 30 of 34 Rock: Where rock or similar hard and unyielding material is encountered, the trench shall be over excavated to provide a minimum of six (6) inches below all conduit and accessories, and refilled to foundation grade with granular materials, suitable for bedding. Bell Holes: Conduit shall be laid only on properly prepared trench bottom shaped to provide continuous contact with the pipe. Bell holes are not required. Excess Material: Excess excavated material removed from site shall be disposed of by the Contractor at his expense at a disposal site approved by the Engineer. The route (through the City) for trucks hauling excess excavated material shall be approved by the Engineer prior to removal of any material from the project area. The amounts, type, and destination of disposed excess excavated material shall be properly documented in writing to the City. Compaction: After conduit installation, trench bedding and backfill shall include sand shading and compaction to the satisfaction of the Engineer, in conformance to the project plans, City Standard Drawing STD-106-L, Subsection 306-6 of the Standard Specifications, and these Special Provisions. Select material taken from excavation shall be free from stones or boulders larger than two inches in diameter, from chunks of pavement, and from large unbroken masses of earth, free of tree roots, branches and sticks. Imported granular backfill material shall be approved loose, granular materials, free from humus, and having a sand equivalent of not less than 30 as determined by laboratory tests. The Contractor, at their own expense, shall submit a certification of material quality to the Engineer prior to placement. Select or imported granular backfill shall be placed simultaneously on both sides of the conduit and shall be completely worked around the conduit and consolidated by sluicing or jetting with water. Before additional material is placed upon the portion of the backfill consolidated by sluicing or jetting an adequate interval of time, as determined by City, shall be allowed to permit reduction of the water content to a degree affording maximum practicable compaction. After the water has drained out as required, the Contractor shall use water jets or other approved means to increase the consolidation until no further consolidation can be obtained. Only material susceptible to satisfactory consolidation by sluicing and jetting shall be used for granular bedding and backfill. Material used for the remainder of the backfill above the top of the conduit shall be selected from that removed from the excavation or shall be imported at the option of the Contractor, brought to near optimum moisture content and compacted by jetting with water or by mechanical equipment. Equipment used for compaction when earth cover on the conduit is three (3) feet or less shall be rollers or vibratory tampers. Use of equipment which compacts by impact will not be permitted. 306-3.1.2 Backfill of Trenches Preparation: Prior to placing backfill, the area to receive the fill material shall be cleaned to remove all trash and debris. Page 31 of 34 Materials: Material used for trench backfill shall be selectively taken from the excavation or shall be imported granular material approved by the Engineer. Placement and Completion: Where supports of any nature are used in the trench, said supports shall be removed unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. Where tight sheeting is used, it shall be removed systematically as soon as practicable after backfilling by pulling alternating pieces along each side of the trench alternating also from one side of the trench to the other. Compaction: Structure and trench backfills shall be compacted to the specified relative percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D1557. Compaction tests performed in the field will be done in accordance with ASTM D1556 (sand cone) or by nuclear methods, ASTM D2922 or D3017. The Contractor shall perform, at its sole expense, all necessary testing to certify that material and sole compaction of the project meet these specifications. The Contractor shall conduct and provide compaction test results for every 150 linear feet of conduit from a lab approved by the Engineer. Compaction test are at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall make all necessary excavations for compaction tests, as directed by the Engineer, and all work in connection with compaction testing by the Contractor shall be included in the various items of work and no additional compensation will be allowed therefore.
