Subject: Contract Award and Administration Procedures
Procedure for awarding a contract
1. Obtain Council approval to advertise for bids.
2. After bid opening, verify low bid is complete, in terms of all pages signed, receipt of
addendums, bid bonds, etc.
3. Check references for low bids.
4. Go to L and I website to check their contractor license status, worker's comp status,
and liability certificate status.
5. If all is proper with steps 2 and 3, write Council packet for "Report of bids open for
such and such project and award to so and so company for such amount of
dollars".
6. After Council approval, speak with winning firm to get any last issues worked out
before generating the Notice of Award.
7. Write a Notice of Award letter to the winning firm, including two original agreements
for them to complete and return. Type in the pertinent information into the
agreement, such as the firm's name and contract amount. Type in the amount of
the contract on the Performance and Payment Bond form.
8. Send agreement and PPB to Scott Snyder for approval as to form.
9. Work with Company to obtain signature to agreement, and get Mayor's signature
on agreement.
10. Obtain other contractual obligations, such as Performance and Payment Bond, and
Certificate of Insurance.
11. The Certificate of Insurance should match the dollar amounts in the sample
certificate included in the bid package. In addition to the dollar amount sections,
the section in the lower right-hand corner must match the sample. Specifically, the
30 days needs to be noted, not 45 days as some firms will request. Also, the form
needs to say that the firm "will mail" notice, and not "endeavor to mail". It is not
necessary for the words "certified mail" to be included.
12. Once all necessary documents have been received and reviewed, issue a Notice to
Proceed letter to the firm authorized by Council. Include a copy of the signed
contract with the NTP letter.
13. If a cashier's check was submitted as part of the bid, mail the check back to the
winning firm along with the signed contract, and reference the fact that you are
returning the check in the NTP letter.
Procedure for administering a contract
1. Soon after the job begins, get a copy of the "Intent to pay prevailing wages" form
from the contractor.
2. As invoices are processed, use the tracking spreadsheet that keeps 5% retainage
out of each payment.
3. As the job is nearly complete, issue the Certificate of Substantial Completion. See
examples of past documents in the folder labeled "reference bid documents".
4. When processing the final payment, use the Final Pay Request form (which is the
same as the tracking form, just with the words "Final Payment" at the top of it.
5. When processing the final payment, also complete the "Final Contract Voucher
Certificate" as amended by Karen Sutherland in October, 2005.
6. After acceptance by City Council, check the L&I website to verify that the contractor
"Account is current", and print a copy for file
7. If project is greater than 35 000 prepare the Notice of Completion of Public
Works Contract and, email to:

one piece of equipment shall be identified with all the appropriate equipment
numbers. Submittals for various items shall be made with a single form
when the items taken together constitute a manufacturer's package or are so

functionally related that expediency indicates checking or review of the
group or package as a whole.

form accompanying each item submitted. Original submittal numbers shall
have the following format: "XXX"; where "XXX" is the sequential number
assigned by the Contractor. Resubmittals shall have the following format:
"XXX -Y"; where "XXX" is the originally assigned submittal number and
"Y" is a sequential letter assigned for resubmittals, i.e., A, B, or C being the
1 st, 2nd, and 3rd resubmittals, respectively. Submittal 2513, for example, is
the second resubmittal of submittal 25.
B. Deviation from Contract:
If the Contractor proposes to provide material, equipment, or method of
work which deviates from the project manual, he shall indicate so under
"deviations" on the transmittal form accompanying the submittal copies.
C. Submittal Completeness,
2. Submittals which do not have all the information required to be submitted,
including deviations, are not acceptable and will be returned without review..
REVIEW PROCEDURE
A. General:
Submittals are specified for those features and characteristics of materials,
equipment, and methods of operation which can be selected based on the
Contractor's judgment of their conformance to the specified requirements.
Other features and characteristics are specified in a manner which enables
the Contractor to determine acceptable options without submittals. The
review procedure is based on the Contractor's guarantee that all features and
characteristics not requiring submittals conform as specified. Review shall
not extend to means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of
construction, or to verifying quantities, dimensions, weights or gages, or
fabrication processes (except where specifically indicated or required by the
project manual) or to safety precautions or programs incident thereto.
Review of a separate item, as such, will not indicate approval of the
assembly in which the item functions.

provided as part of the work under this contract and its acceptability
determined under normal inspection procedures.
EFFECT OF REVIEW OF CONTRACTOR'S SUBMITTALS
A. Review of contract drawings, methods of work, or information regarding materials
or equipment the Contractor proposes to provide, shall not relieve the Contractor of
his responsibility for errors therein and shall not be regarded as an assumption of
risks or liability by the Construction Manager or the Owner, or by any officer or
employee thereof, and the Contractor shall have no claim under the contract on
account of the failure, or partial failure, of the method of work, material, or

DEWATERING
PART 1 GENERAL
1.01 BACKGROUND
A. This Section includes specifications for design, responsibilities, operation, and
execution of dewatering during construction.
B, The ground water table around the outside of Clarifier No. 3 has varied from
about Elevation -3 to +1 feet, based on groundwater level monitoring performed
from May 2015 to December 2015 (refer to the Geotechnical Report dated
January 22, 2016 for additional information.) This is approximately 5 to 9 feet
above the base of the proposed excavation.
C. The materials encountered at the base of the clarifier are expected to have
relatively low permeability; however, the Contractor should expect to encounter
permeable seams that produce significant amounts of water during excavation.
D. Wells and well points may not be effective in lowering the ground water table
within the excavation for the clarifier; therefore, dewatering is likely to require
sumps and ditching.
E. The dewatering system shall be designed, installed, operated and decommissioned
using accepted and professional methods.
F. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for proper design, installation,
operation, maintenance, and any decommissioning of all components of the
dewatering system.
G„ Dewatering, including disposal of water shall be in accordance with all applicable
laws, regulations and standards.

1/21/2016 PAEdmonds\148594\002\Specs 09900-20 Secondary Clarifier No. 3
Structural Repair
Ambient environmental conditions in the enclosure must be
constantly monitored and maintained to ensure the degree of
cleanliness is held and no "rust back" occurs prior to coating
material application.
f. Cleaning of soluble salt contamination shall be as follows.
1) Cleaning for decontamination shall utilize a steam
generator ("Jenny") capable of producing steam/hot water
temperature of 150 degrees F minimum to 200 degrees F
maximum. Hot water pressure washing at 150 degrees F
can also be utilized using clean, fresh, potable water only.
The steam/hot water shall be applied using a lance with a
nozzle providing a fan shaped spray pattern. The
recommended discharge temperature is 150 degrees F for
safety reasons.
2) Steam/hot water shall be applied in a minimum of two
passes over surfaces cleaned. Horizontal members on
substrates shall be cleaned from end to end continuously
and from top to bottom as this horizontal progression
continues. Vertical pipes or substrates shall be cleaned
around the circumference from top to bottom (crown to
invert) to ensure complete solubility and rinsing of
contaminants from top to bottom. As this cleaning
proceeds, the surfaces of the steel shall be scrubbed using
stiff bristle brushes.
3) Once completed, this cleaning shall be followed by
repeated thorough rinsing. Rinsing can be accomplished
using pressure water washing using unheated potable water,.
Once decontamination cleaning has been performed over a
representative (small) area, the cleaned substrate shall be
tested for soluble salt concentrations to ensure that the
pattern and extent of cleaning shall be adequate. Testing
shall be performed as defined in paragraph 3.07."
E. Concrete Surfaces:
Inspection of concrete surfaces prior to surface preparation and surface
preparation of concrete surfaces shall be performed in accordance with
SSPC-SP13 (also called NACE 6).
2, Prepare substrate cracks, areas requiring resurfacing and perform detail
treatment including but not limited to, terminating edges, per CSM
recommendations. This shall precede surface preparation for degree of
cleanliness and profile.
1/21/2016 PAEdmonds\148594\002\Specs 09900-21 Secondary Clarifier No. 3
Structural Repair
The surface profile for prepared concrete surfaces to be coated shall be
evaluated by comparing the profile of the prepared concrete with the
profile of graded abrasive paper, as described in ANSI B74.18 or by
comparing the profile with the ICRI 03732 (surface profile replicas).
Surface profile requirements shall be in accordance with the Coat Spec
requirements and the CSM's recommendations.
4. Surface cleanliness of prepared concrete substrates shall be inspected after
cleaning, preparation, and/or drying, but prior to making repairs or
applying a coat in the coating system. If concrete surfaces are repaired,
they shall be reinspected for surface cleanliness prior to application of the
coating system.
5, Surface preparation of concrete substrates shall be accomplished using
methods such as dry abrasive blast cleaning, high, or ultra high-pressure
water blast cleaning in accordance with SSPC-SP-13. The selected
cleaning method shall produce the requirements set forth below.
a. A clean substrate that is free of calcium sulfate, loose coarse or
fine aggregate, laitance, loose hydrated cement paste, and
otherwise deleterious substances shall be achieved. Blast cleaning
and other means necessary shall be used to open up air voids or
bugholes to expose their complete perimeter. Leaving shelled over,
hidden air voids beneath the exposed concrete surface is not
acceptable. Concrete substrate must be dry prior to the application
of filler/surface or coating system materials.
b. Acceptable surface preparation must produce a concrete surface
with a minimum pH of 8.0 to be confirmed by surface pH testing.
If after surface preparation, the surface pH remains below 8.0,
perform additional water blasting, cleaning, or abrasive blast
cleaning until additional pH testing indicates an acceptable pH
level.
C. Following inspection by the Contractor of the concrete surface
preparation, thoroughly vacuum clean concrete surfaces to be
coated to remove loose dirt, and spent abrasive (if dry blast
cleaning is used) leaving a dust free, sound concrete substrate.
Debris produced by blast cleaning shall be removed from the
structures to be coated and disposed of legally off site by the
Contractor.

6. Should abrasive blast cleaning or high or ultrahigh pressure water blasting
not remove degraded concrete, chipping or other abrading tools shall be
used to remove the deteriorated concrete until a sound, clean substrate is
achieved which is free of calcium sulfate, loose coarse or fine aggregate,
laitance, loose hydrated cement paste, and otherwise deleterious
substances. Concrete substrates must be dry prior to the application of
filler/surfacers or coating system materials.
7. Surface cleanliness of prepared concrete substrates shall be inspected after
cleaning, preparation, and/or drying, but prior to application of coating
materials. If concrete surfaces are repaired, they shall be reinspected for
surface cleanliness and required surface profile prior to application of the
coating system.
8„ Moisture content of concrete to be coated shall be tested in accordance
with ASTM D4263, Standard Test Method for Indicating Moisture in
Concrete by the Plastic Sheet Method and ASTM F 1869, Standard Test
Method for Measuring Moisture Vapor Emission Rate of Concrete
Subfloor Using Anhydrous Calcium Chloride. The ASTM D4263 plastic
sheet test shall be conducted at least once for every 500 sq. ft. of surface
area to be coated. The presence of any moisture on plastic sheet following
test period constitutes a non -acceptable test. For concrete surfaces to be
coated which are on the negative or back side of concrete walls or
structures exposed to soils (back filled) or immersed and waterproofed in
accordance with Section 03300, perform calcium chloride tests in
accordance with ASTM F-1869 once for each 500 sq. ft. of surface area to
be coated. Comply with CSM's written recommendations regarding
acceptance/non-acceptance of moisture vapor emissions.
F. Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Surfaces:
Prepare FRP surfaces by sanding to establish uniform surface roughness
and to remove gloss from the resin in the FRP. Next, vacuum clean to
remove loose FRP dust, dirt, and other materials. Next, solvent clean using
clean white rags and allow solvent to evaporate completely before
application of coating materials.
G. Existing Facilities:
Existing equipment and metalwork shall be coated in accordance with the
appropriate coating system specified for new work in paragraph 3.05.
2, Modified work shall require the full coating system. Other work shall
require cleaning and surface preparation as recommended by the CSM
followed by two finish coats of the appropriate system.

Structural Repair
Contractor shall demonstrate that the existing coating is compatible with
field coating by performing the adhesion test specified in paragraph 3.01
Adhesion Confirmation. Where unacceptable test results are obtained, the
Contractor shall follow manufacturer's written instructions as to the
necessity of a tie coat to provide a satisfactory bond between the existing
coating and the specified field coating. The difference in cost between the
specified coatings and that which is compatible with existing coatings, or
work required to remove exiting coatings, will be paid for as extra work
unless identified in the Scope of Work for the project already.
4. Abrasive blasting shall be used to clean wall surfaces of existing process
channels and tanks to be coated. Surfaces to be coated, or recoated, shall
be repaired, cleaned, and finished to the standards as specified herein and
in Section 03300 for new concrete. Major repair work for wall surfaces of
(specify surfaces) shall be as specified in Section 03300.
3.03 APPLICATION
A. Workmanship:
Coated surfaces shall be free from runs, drips, ridges, waves, laps, and
brush marks. Coats shall be applied to produce an even film of uniform
thickness completely coating corners and crevices.
I The Contractor's equipment shall be designed for application of the
materials specified. Compressors shall have suitable traps and filters to
remove water and oils from the air. A paper blotter test shall be performed
by the Contractor when requested by the Construction Manager to
determine if the air is sufficiently free of oil and moisture so as not to
produce deteriorating effects on the coating system. The amount of oil and
moisture in spray air shall be less than the amount recommended by the
CSM. Spray equipment shall be equipped with mechanical agitators,
pressure gages, and pressure regulators, and spray nozzles of the proper
sizes.
3. Each coat of coating material shall be applied evenly and sharply cut to
line. Care shall be exercised to avoid overspraying or spattering paint on
surfaces not to be coated. Glass, hardware, floors, roofs, and other
adjacent areas and installations shall be protected by taping, drop cloths,
or other suitable measures.
4. Coating applications method shall be conventional or airless spray, brush
or roller, or trowel as recommended by CSM.
5. Allow each coat to cure or dry thoroughly, according to CSM's printed
instructions, prior to recoating.
6. Vary color for each successive coat for coating systems when possible.
1/21/2016 PAEdmonds\148594\002\Specs 09900-24 Secondary Clarifier No. 3
Structural Repair
When coating complex steel shapes, prior to overall coating system
application, stripe coat welds, edges of structural steel shapes, metal cut-
outs, pits in steel surfaces, or rough surfaces with the primer coat. This
involves applying a separate coat using brushes or rollers to ensure proper
coverage. Stripe coat via spray application is not permitted.
B. Coating Properties, Mixing and Thinning:
Coatings, when applied, shall provide a satisfactory film and smooth even
surface. Glossy undercoats shall be lightly sanded to provide a surface
suitable for the proper application and adhesion of subsequent coats.
Coating materials shall be thoroughly stirred, strained, and kept at a
uniform consistency during application. Coatings consisting of two or
more components shall be mixed in accordance with the CSM's
instructions. Where necessary to suit the conditions of the surface,
temperature, weather and method of application, the coating may be
thinned as recommended by the CSM immediately prior to use. The
volatile organic content (VOC) of the coating as applied shall comply with
prevailing air pollution control regulations. Unless otherwise specified,
coatings shall not be reduced more than necessary to obtain the proper
application characteristics. Thinner shall be as recommended by the CSM.
C. Atmospheric Conditions:
Coatings shall be applied only to surfaces that are dry, and only under
conditions of evaporation rather than condensation. Coatings systems shall
not be applied during rainy, misty weather, or to surfaces upon which
there is frost or moisture condensation. During damp weather, when the
temperature of the surface to be coated is within 10 degrees F of the dew
point, forced dehumidification equipment may be used to maintain a
temperature of minimum 40 degrees F and 10 degrees F above the dew
point for the surfaces to be coated, the coated surface, and the atmosphere
in contact with the surface. These conditions shall be maintained for a
period of at least 8 hours or as recommended by the CSM. Where
conditions causing condensation are severe, dehumidification equipment,
fans, and/or heaters shall be used inside enclosed areas to maintain the
required atmospheric and surface temperature requirements for proper
coating application and cure.

F
Concrete Substrate Temperatures and Detail Treatment:
When the surface temperatures of the concrete substrates to be coated are
rising or when these substrates are in direct sunlight, outgassing of air
from the concrete may result in bubbling, pinhole formations, and/or
blistering in the coating system. The application of the filler/surface and
the coating system will only be allowed during periods of falling
temperature. This will require that application of the filler/surface and
coating system shall only occur during the cooler evening hours.
Contractor shall include any cost for working outside of normal hours in
the bid.
2. Should bubbles, pinholes, or discontinuities form in the applied coating
system material, they shall be repaired as recommended by the CSM.
Should pinholes develop in the filler/surfacer material or in the first coat
of the coating material, the pinholes shall be repaired in accordance with
the CSM's recommendations prior to application of the next coat of
material. Whenever pinholes occur, the air void behind or beneath the
pinhole shall be opened up completely and then completely filled with the
specified filler/surfacer material. Next, the coated area around the pinhole
repair shall be abraded and the coating reapplied over that area.
3, Perform application detail work per CSM's current written
recommendations and/or drawings.
Protection of Coated Surfaces;
Items that have been coated shall not be handled, worked on, or otherwise
disturbed, until the coating is completely dry and hard. After delivery at
the site, and upon permanent erection or installation, shop -coated
metalwork shall be recoated or retouched with specified coating when it is
necessary to maintain the integrity of the film.
Method of Coating Application:
1. Where two or more coats are required, alternate coats shall contain
sufficient compatible color additive to act as indicator of coverage, or the
alternate coats shall be of contrasting colors. Color additives shall not
contain lead, or lead compounds, which may be destroyed or affected by
hydrogen sulfide or other corrosive gas, and/or chromium.
2. Mechanical equipment, on which the equipment manufacturer's coating is
acceptable, shall be touch-up primed and coated with two coats of the
specified coating system to match the color scheduled. Electrical and
instrumentation equipment specified in Divisions 26 and 40 shall be
coated as specified in paragraph 3.03 Electrical and Instrumentation
Equipment and Materials.

Coatings shall not be applied to a surface until it has been prepared as
specified. The primer or first coat shall be applied by brush to ferrous
surfaces that are not blast -cleaned. Coats for blast -cleaned ferrous surfaces
and subsequent coats for nonblast-cleaned ferrous surfaces may be either
brush or spray applied. After the prime coat is dry, pinholes and holidays
shall be marked, repaired in accordance with CSM's recommendations and
retested before succeeding coats are applied. Unless otherwise specified,
coats for concrete and masonry shall be brushed, rolled, or troweled.
Film Thickness and Continuity:
WFT of the first coat of the coating system and subsequent coats shall be
verified by the Contractor, following application of each coat.
2. The surface area covered per gallon of coating for various types of
surfaces shall not exceed those recommended by the CSM. The first coat,
referred to as the prime coat, on metal surfaces refers to the first full paint
coat and not to solvent wash, grease emulsifiers or other pretreatment
applications. Coatings shall be applied to the thickness specified, and in
accordance with these specifications. Unless otherwise specified, the
average total thickness (dry) of a completed protective coating system on
exposed metal surfaces shall be not less than 1.25 mils per coat. The
minimum thickness at any point shall not deviate more than 25 percent
from the required average. Unless otherwise specified, no less than two
coats shall be applied.
In testing for continuity of coating about welds, projections (such as bolts
and nuts), and crevices, the Construction Manager shall determine the
minimum conductivity for smooth areas of like coating where the dry -mil
thickness has been accepted. This conductivity shall be the minimum
required for these rough or irregular areas. Pinholes and holidays shall be
recoated to the required coverage.
4. The ability to obtain specified film thickness is generally compromised
when brush or roller application methods are used and, therefore, more
coats may need to be applied to achieve the specified dry film thickness„
For concrete substrates, the Contractor shall apply a complete skim coat of
the specified filler/surfacer material over the entire substrate prior to
application of the coating system. This material shall be applied such that
all open air voids and bugholes in the concrete substrate are completely
filled prior to coating application.

piping in contact with hangers, and contact surfaces that are inaccessible
after assembly. The final coat shall be applied after erection. Structural
friction connections and high tensile bolts and nuts shall be coated after
erection. Areas damaged during erection shall be hand -cleaned or power -
tool cleaned and recoated with primer coat prior to the application of
subsequent coats. Touch-up of surfaces shall be performed after
installation. Surfaces to be coated shall be clean and dry at the time of
application. Except for those to be filled with grout, the underside of
equipment bases and supports that have not been galvanized shall be
coated with at least two coats of primer specified for system E-2 prior to
setting the equipment in place. Provide coating system terminations at
leading edges and transitions to other substrates in accordance with the
CSM's recommendations or detail drawings.
Soluble Salt Contamination of Metallic Substrates:
1, Contractor shall test in accordance with SSPC-TU-4 metallic substrates to
be coated that have been exposed to seawater or coastal air or to industrial
fallout of particulate or other sources of soluble chlorides (such as
wastewater exposure). If testing indicates detrimental levels of soluble
salts, those in excess of 25 ppm, the Contractor shall clean and prepare
these surfaces to remove the soluble salts.
3.04 CLEANUP
A. General:
1. Upon completion of coating, the Contractor shall remove surplus
materials, protective coverings, and accumulated rubbish, and thoroughly
clean surfaces and repair overspray or other coating -related damage.
