This work generally consists of excavating Cutoff Collars and Extensions, removing existing cribbing, designing and installing sheet pile shoring to support the excavation, dewatering excavations, placing grout backfill, placing granular backfill, and paving the work area. A Work Plan detailing the schedule and approach (means & methods, materials, health & safety etc.) will be required for review and approval prior to start of work within one week of Notice to Proceed. The Cutoff Collars generally includes the excavation of four 5-foot or up to 8-foot square pits located adjacent to the sewer that extend from the top of the sewer to approximately 4 feet below the sewer. Base Bid shall be based on 5' x 5' pits, excavations larger than 5' x 5' will be subject to prior written approval and cost agreement via written and executed change order. Soil and existing obstructions, such as the timber cribbing, are to be removed from adjacent to the sewer down to the base of the excavation. Sheet piles will be placed in the Collar pits to assist with shoring excavation walls and water infiltration. Dewatering of Collar pits will be required prior to Collar grout material and purged water will be stored in the on-site Baker tank. Saturated excavated material will need to be placed in a dropbox or equivalent for dewatering and temporary storage purposes.
