Section 02768 – 9

3.04 CURVES, ANGLES, CLOSURES AND SHORT SECTIONS
The laying of pipe on curved alignment by means of unsymmetrical closure of spigot into bell rings will be permitted. The amount of pull permitted from normal closure on one side of the joint shall not exceed the manufacturer's recommendation. For the purpose of reducing the angular deflections at pipe joints and for closure sections, the Contractor shall be permitted to install pipe sections of less than standard length. Where such installations are allowed, Contractor shall be responsible for anchorage of the necessary joints, as directed by the Engineer.

3.05 FLANGE, FITTING AND BOLT PROTECTION
All appurtenances and fittings at the pipeline shall be primed, and wrapped with Protecto-Wrap No. 200 with No. 1170 Primer, or approved equal.

The Contractor shall take all necessary precautions to prevent the pipe from floating due to water entering the trench from any source, shall assume full responsibility for any damage due to this cause and shall at his own expense restore and replace the pipe to its specified condition and grade if it is displaced due to floating. If the Contractor, upon approval by the Engineer, elects to test a system utilizing valves and connecting pipe installed by the District, the District will assume responsibility for any leaks occurring in any pipeline or valve furnished and installed by the District. In the event Contractor is unable to satisfactorily test his system because of leaks in the District-installed system, Contractor shall install temporary bulkheads in his construction to perform tests, as determined necessary by the Engineer.

Furnish and Install PVC Force Main
Section 02768 – 10

Full compensation for furnishing all labor, tools, materials, and equipment (except water when provided by the District), and for doing all work involved in testing, and for repairing any leaks shall be included in the price paid for installation of the pipe, and no additional compensation by the District will be allowed therefore.

3.08 FIELD HYDROSTATIC TEST
Upon completion of the laying, jointing, backfilling, and proper curing of the joints, and compaction of backfill, the pipeline or portions thereof shall be hydrostatically tested.

For convenience of testing, the pipeline may be divided into sections and each section tested separately. Main line valves may be used in lieu of special bulkheads, or if valves are not conveniently located, temporary bulkheads shall be constructed. Bulkheads shall be constructed to safely withstand the hydraulic pressures imposed upon them. No payment will be made expressly for the work and materials required for the bulkheads and any
compensation desired by the Contractor for this work shall be included in the price quoted for the installation of pipe. The Contractor shall have no claim against the District by reason of required construction of bulkheads due to the omission of the installation of any or all main line valves.

After the section of pipeline has been bulkheaded and completely filled with water, it shall be allowed to stand under pressure a sufficient time to allow the escape of air from any air pockets. The pressure shall then be increased to the specified test pressure as hereinafter described, and shall be maintained at this pressure for not less than four (4) hours.

All pipe shall be tested under a pressure 1 1/2 times the design operating pressure of the pipe.

Maximum test pressure shall not exceed that determined by the Engineer.

If any leakage is evidenced in the testing of the pipeline, the various sections of the pipeline shall be isolated for testing between available valves, or between bulkheads located as directed by the Engineer. The maximum allowable leakage for pipe shall be two (2) gallons per day per mile of pipe per inch of pipe inside diameter. If the leakage exceeds this amount, the section being tested will be considered defective. The Contractor shall determine the points of leakage, make the necessary repairs and perform another test. This procedure shall be continued until the leakage in each section falls below the allowable maximum for that section of pipeline.

Leakage shall be determined by metering the water injected into the pipeline while under the required pressure. The Contractor shall submit to the District before and after the test the gage and meter used so that these devices may be tested by this District.

Furnish and Install PVC Force Main
Section 02768 – 11

The Contractor shall provide all calibrated meters for measurement of leakage, all bulkheads or skillets, piping, calibrated gages, pumps and other equipment, all water not furnished by the District, and all power and labor necessary for the performance of pressure tests satisfactory to the Engineer. The Contractor shall furnish all necessary equipment and labor to fill each section of pipeline tested and for pumping the water from one test section to another as may be necessary for obtaining and maintaining the required water pressure and for filling the entire pipeline with water after the conclusion of the testing, as hereinafter provided.

The Contractor, at his own expense, shall do any excavation necessary to locate and repair leaks or other defects which may develop under test, including removal of backfill already placed, shall replace such excavated material, and shall make all repairs necessary to meet the required water tightness after which the test shall be repeated until the pipe meets the test requirements. All tests shall be made in the presence of the Engineer. After the pipe has met successfully all test requirements specified herein, the entire pipeline shall be filled with water and so maintained until the completion of the contract unless otherwise ordered by the Engineer.

In the event CONTRACTOR fails to furnish tools, equipment, or labor in the necessary quantity or quality, or fails to prosecute the work or any part thereof contemplated by this Agreement in a diligent and workmanlike manner, and if the CONTRACTOR for a period of three (3) calendar days after receipt of written demand from CITY or its designated representative to do so, fails to furnish tools, equipment, or labor in the necessary quantity or quality, and to prosecute its work and all parts thereof in a diligent and workmanlike manner, or after commencing to do so within said three (3) calendar days, fails to continue to do so; then the CITY may exclude the CONTRACTOR from the premises, or any portion thereof, and take possession of said premises or any portion thereof, together with all material and equipment thereon, and may complete the work contemplated by this Agreement or any portion of said work, either by furnishing the tools, equipment, labor or material necessary, or by letting the unfinished portion of said work, or the portion taken over by the CITY to another contractor or by a combination of such methods. In any event, the procuring of the completion of said work, or the portion thereof taken over by the CITY, shall be a charge against the CONTRACTOR, and may be deducted from any money due or becoming due to CONTRACTOR from the CITY, or the CONTRACTOR shall pay the CITY the amount of said charge, or the portion thereof unsatisfied. The sureties, provided for under this Agreement shall become liable for payment should CONTRACTOR fail to pay in full any said cost incurred by the CITY.

X. INSURANCE

Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Project, CONTRACTOR and its subcontractors shall maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Attached hereto as Exhibit C are copies of Certificates of Insurance and the waiver of subrogation endorsement as required by Section 6.B.1. CONTRACTOR will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth herein, CONTRACTOR agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so.

CONTRACTOR acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to CONTRACTOR or its subcontractors in excess of the limits and coverage identified in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, claim or demand, will be equally available to CITY.

A. Types of Insurance

Without limiting CONTRACTOR’s indemnification of CITY, and prior to commencement of Work, CONTRACTOR shall obtain, provide and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the type and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to CITY:

1. General liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage, and a $2,000,000 completed operations aggregate. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.

2. Automobile liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.

3. Umbrella or excess liability insurance. If CONTRACTOR is using umbrella coverage to meet part of its liability insurance requirements under Paragraph 1 of this Section, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain an umbrella or excess liability insurance that will provide bodily injury, personal injury, completed operations and property damage liability coverage at least as broad as the primary coverages set forth above, including commercial general liability and employer’s liability.

Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions:

• A drop down feature requiring the policy to respond in the event that any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectable in whole or in part for any reason; • Pay on behalf of wording as opposed to reimbursement; • Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies; • Policies shall “follow form” to the underlying primary policies; and • Insureds under primary policies shall also be insureds under the umbrella or excess policies.

4. Workers’ compensation insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance (Statutory Limits) and Employer’s Liability Insurance (with limits of at least $1,000,000) for CONTRACTOR’s employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700 of the Labor Code. In addition,

CONTRACTOR shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700 for all of the subcontractor’s employees.

CONTRACTOR shall submit to CITY, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of CITY, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers.

5. Pollution liability insurance. Environmental Impairment Liability Insurance shall be written on a CONTRACTOR’s Pollution Liability form or other form acceptable to CITY providing coverage for liability arising out of sudden, accidental and gradual pollution and remediation. The policy limit shall be no less than $1,000,000 dollars per claim and in the aggregate. All activities contemplated in this Agreement shall be specifically scheduled on the policy as “covered operations.” The policy shall provide coverage for the hauling of waste from the project site to the final disposal location, including non-owned disposal sites.

Products/completed operations coverage shall extend a minimum of three (3) years after project completion. Coverage shall be included on behalf of the insured for covered claims arising out of the actions of independent contractors. If the insured is using subcontractors, the Policy must include work performed “by or on behalf” of the insured. Policy shall contain no language that would invalidate or remove the insurer’s duty to defend or indemnify for claims or suits expressly excluded from coverage. Policy shall specifically provide for a duty to defend on the part of the insurer. The CITY, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, shall be included as insureds under the policy.

6. Builder’s risk insurance. Upon commencement of construction and with approval of CITY, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain builder’s risk insurance for the entire duration of the Project until only the CITY has an insurable interest. The Builder’s Risk coverage shall include the coverages as specified below.

The named insureds shall be CONTRACTOR and CITY, including its officers, officials, employees, and agents. All Subcontractors (excluding those solely responsible for design Work) of any tier and suppliers shall be included as additional insureds as their interests may appear.

CONTRACTOR shall not be required to maintain property insurance for any portion of the Project following transfer of control thereof to CITY.

The policy shall contain a provision that all proceeds from the builder’s risk policy shall be made payable to the CITY. The CITY will act as a fiduciary for all other interests in the Project.

Policy shall be provided for replacement value on an “all risk” basis for the completed value of the project. There shall be no coinsurance penalty or provisional limit provision in any such policy. Policy must include: (1) coverage for any ensuing loss from faulty workmanship, Nonconforming Work, omission or deficiency in design or specifications; (2) coverage against machinery accidents and operational testing; (3) coverage for removal of debris, and insuring the buildings, structures, machinery, equipment, materials, facilities, fixtures and all other properties constituting a part of the Project; (4) Ordinance or law coverage for contingent rebuilding, demolition, and increased costs of construction; (5) transit coverage (unless insured by the supplier or receiving contractor), with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any key equipment item; (6) Ocean marine cargo coverage insuring any Project materials or supplies, if applicable; (7) coverage with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any property or equipment stored either on or off the Site or any staging area. Such insurance shall be on a form acceptable to CITY to ensure adequacy of terms and sublimits and shall be submitted to the CITY prior to commencement of construction.

CONTRACTOR hereby waives its own right of recovery against CITY, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.

7. Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the CITY to inform CONTRACTOR of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the CITY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

8. Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

If the CONTRACTOR maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the CITY requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the CONTRACTOR. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the CITY.

9. Notice of cancellation. CONTRACTOR agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to CITY with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.

10. Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that CITY and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies.

This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.

11. Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to CITY and approved of in writing.

12. Separation of insureds.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code Sections 21000–21177), the City of Beaumont (hereinafter “the City”), as Lead Agency, approved prepared a Initial Study/ Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Beaumont Water Treatment Plant Upgrade/Expansion and Brine Pipeline (State Clearinghouse No. 2018011029), which was circulated for a 30-day public review period from January 18, 2018 to February 16, 2018, pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15073 (hereinafter the “Beaumont WWTP MND”). The Beaumont WWTP MND and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) were approved by the Beaumont City Council on March 20, 2018. The City approved a modified MMRP on March 15, 2019.

The Beaumont Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade/Expansion and Brine Pipeline Project (hereinafter “the Beaumont WWTP Project”) evaluated in the Beaumont WWTP MND, includes two components: first, the expansion and upgrade of the Beaumont Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP); and second, the construction of a brine disposal pipeline from the Beaumont WWTP to the nearest connection point of the Inland Empire Brine Line (IEBL) located near the City of San Bernardino Water Reclamation Plant. The brine disposal pipeline was evaluated to run from the Beaumont WWTP and traverse west along W. 4th Street to the end of the existing pavement where the brine pipeline will continue north along a dirt road, where it will then cross underneath the SR-60 to Western Knolls Avenue. Alternate alignments were considered to run south of SR-60 include using Nicholas Road, and several currently unnamed roads/dirt paths, after crossing the SR-60, the brine pipeline will continue west within the future realignment of Western Knolls Avenue where it will turn north within Potrero Boulevard
Addendum No. 1 to the Beaumont WWTP MND analyzes the impacts associated with construction and operation of the Mesa Lift Station and Force Main project (hereinafter the “Lift Station and Force Main Project”) The Lift Station and Force Main Project proposes upgrades and improvements to the existing Mesa Lift Station and two segments of 16- inch diameter wastewater pipeline. The Lift Station site and proposed alignment of the Force Main alignment is adjacent to the brine pipeline component of the Beaumont WWTP Project. The purpose of the Lift Station and Force Main Project is to provide sufficient redundancy and storage to avoid wastewater backups and overflows from existing and future growth consistent with the Beaumont 2040 Plan.

Certain mitigation measures required of the Beaumont WTP MMD are not applicable to the Lift Station and Force Main project or have already been satisfied. Therefore, this clarified Mitigation Monitoring and reporting program (Clarified MMRP) has been prepared. None of the revisions to the mitigation measures change the intent or outcome of the mitigation measures contained in the modified MMRP approved March 15, 2019.

Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15097, this Clarified MMRP consists of a written monitoring and reporting program to verify implementation of adopted mitigation measures. The Clarified MMRP is set up as a compliance report with space for confirming compliance with the mitigation measures.

biologist (the “Project Biologist”) to perform
preconstruction surveys in potential nesting areas
three days or less prior to disturbance. If active
nests are documented, species-specific measures,
as determined by the Project Biologist, shall be
implemented to prevent abandonment of the active
nest. including but not limited to, installation of
barriers. If construction begins in the non-breeding
season, but extends into the breeding season,
nesting bird surveys shall be conducted prior to
moving into the new areas. In areas where work is
already active, any birds building adjacent nests
shall be presumed to be unconcerned by the

responsible for preventing impacts to them by
stopping work or establishing buffers as needed.

To minimize impacts to special status plant species,
the Project Biologist shall flag areas where special
status species occur and those areas shall be
avoided during construction. In the event avoidance
to special-status plant species is not possible, the
Project Biologist shall collect seeds from the
plant(s), remove the plant, and then spread the
collected seeds back into the same area after
construction.

Full time biological monitoring is not required;
however, depending on the environmental
conditions where the crew(s) are working, there may
be cases where a monitor is required all day or

shall occur strictly in the non-breeding season
(September 1st to January 31st). In the event that
work on bridges during the breeding season cannot
be avoided, the City of Beaumont shall retain a
qualified biologist to oversee that bird exclusion
netting is installed by a qualified professional during the non-breeding season to prevent nesting on
bridges. Netting may also exclude bats. In either
scenario, regular biological monitoring will be
required at bridge crossings to ensure that birds and
bats are not present and/or that exclusionary
devices are maintained and functioning correctly.

Beaumont WWTP MND mitigation measure MM BIO-3 is not applicable to the Lift Station and Force Main Project because no work will be done on bridges.

MM BIO-4. Roosting Bats: A qualified biologist
shall perform a preconstruction survey for suitable
roosting habitat for special-status bats that will be
affected by Project construction (e.g., modification
of bridges). Survey shall be done during the
appropriate time of day to maximize detectability to
determine if bat species are roosting near the work
area no less than 7 days and no more than 14 days
prior to beginning ground disturbance and/or
construction. Survey methodology may include
visual surveys of bats (e.g., observation of bats
during foraging period), inspection for suitable
habitat, bat sign (e.g., guano), or use of ultrasonic
detectors (e.g., Anabat, etc.). Visual surveys will
include trees within 0.25 mile of Project construction
activities. The type of survey will depend on the
condition of the potential roosting habitat. If no bat
roosts are found, then no further study is required.

If evidence of bat use is observed, the number and
species of bats using the roost will be determined.

Bat detectors may be used to supplement survey
efforts.

If roosts are determined to be present and must be
removed, the bats will be excluded from the roosting
site before the facility is removed. The surveying

Exclusion methods may include use of one-way
doors at roost entrances (bats may leave, but not
reenter), netting, or sealing roost entrances when the
site can be confirmed to contain no bats. Exclusion
efforts may be restricted during periods of sensitive
activity (e.g., during hibernation or while females in
maternity colonies are nursing young).

If roosts of special-status bats cannot be avoided or
it is determined that construction activities may
cause roost abandonment, such activities may not
commence until permanent, elevated bat houses
have been installed outside of, but near the
construction area. Placement and height will be
determined by a qualified biologist, but the height of
bat house will be at least 15 feet. Bat houses will be
multi-chambered and be purchased or constructed
in accordance with CDFW standards. The number of
bat houses required will be dependent upon the size
and number of colonies found, but at least one bat
house will be installed for each pair of bats (if
occurring individually), or of sufficient number to
accommodate each colony of bats to be relocated.

MM CR-4: Paleontological Monitoring. Prior to the
start of construction along the pipeline alignment
between West Fern Avenue and the intersection of
Beaumont Avenue and San Timoteo Canyon Road in
the City of Redlands, the City of Beaumont shall
retain a Qualified Paleontologist for full-time
construction monitoring. This stretch of road may
have previously undisturbed deposits determined to
have a high paleontological sensitivity (i.e, the San
Timoteo Formation and Pleistocene alluvial and axial
channel deposits). Monitoring shall follow the
Society of Vertebrate Paleontology (2010) guidelines.

Monitoring should include the visual inspection of
excavated or graded areas, trench sidewalls, spoils,
and any other disturbed sediment. In the event that
a paleontological resource is discovered, the
procedures outlined in mitigation measure MM CR-3
shall apply. The approved paleontological monitor
will have the authority to halt or divert temporarily
the construction equipment around the find until it is
assessed for scientific significance and collected.

Paleontological monitoring can be reduced or
eliminated at the discretion of the Qualified
Paleontologist if no fossil resources are encountered
after 50 percent of the excavation along this stretch
is completed.

Beaumont WWTP MND mitigation measure MM CR-4 is not applicable to the Lift Station and Force Main Project because no work will be done in the City of Redlands.
