Removal of old manhole, precast or brick, and manhole base including the piping and installing new PVC piping and fittings in a "pipethrough" configuration. Pouring new concrete base around installed piping and set new precast manhole to existing grade. Once installed, opening the top of piping within manhole to allow access for sewer maintenance equipment. a. Contractor shall be responsible for asphalt removal and haul off for each manhole and the transport of backfill material and millings to be used as the temporary patch upon completion. Dump site and material will be provided by the City. Final roadway paving will be provided under separate contract. b. The Contractor shall be responsible for excavation, removal and disposal of old manhole and piping and the installation of new piping, manhole, service connections and other applicable appurtenances. c.

The piping for the invert shall be replaced with PVC of the same size (8" or 10"). The piping configuration will be the same as the manhole removed including straight, 90-degree elbow or wye sweep utilizing PVC push-on fittings in a "pipe-through" installation. A concrete bench shall be installed around the sealed pipe configuration sloping to the midline of the piping. Once the bench is installed the top half of the piping shall be opened up through the entirety of the manhole to allow for maintenance equipment access. f. Piping from manhole invert shall be reconnected to existing piping outside of the manhole within 3 feet utilizing rubber Fernco compression style couplings. g. Sewer service connections previously tapped into the manhole being replaced or within the replacement area shall be re-established onto new mainline piping utilizing a factory wye fitting and reconnecting to existing service piping with appropriate fittings and a rubber Fernco compression style coupling.
