This project is for the relocation of approximately 160 l.f. of new 8" PVC waterline in Upper Burrell
Township, Westmoreland County. The proposed waterline relocation will be completed as part of a
PADOT bridge replacement project on a section of SR4075, known locally as Shaffer Hill Drive, over
Little Pucketa Creek. The waterline relocation will be completed by the Municipal Authority of the City
of New Kensington prior to the bridge work. Relocation design options were limited by the ability to
secure ROW access from the adjacent landowner, stream conformation and proposed bridge facilities.
Overall disturbance for the project will be approximately 0.14 acre. The construction will be limited to
the placement of the waterline. Disturbance will be kept to a minimum and all erosion and
sedimentation controls must be installed and functional before site disturbance begins within the
tributary areas of each of the controls. CFS will be placed at this crossing to prevent any additional
sediment impact to the stream. Seeding and mulching with erosion control blanket will be used to
stabilize impacted areas within 50 feet of the stream at the location of the leak repair. After final
stabilization has been achieved, temporary controls must be removed, and areas disturbed during the
removal of the controls must be stabilized immediately. The Work to be done under the Contract, as shown on the Plans and Specifications, shall
include the furnishing and complete installation of all Materials and any other necessary
Work required for proper completion, operation and use of the facilities. All the equipment,
Materials and labor that may be necessary to complete the Work and place it in satisfactory
operation, implied or intended in the Plans and Specifications, shall be furnished and/or
installed by Contractor without extra cost to the Owner.
The offer or proposal for the Bidder submitted on the prescribed form setting forth
the prices for the Work to be performed.
