9 <br />standards, September 1996". These specifications included applicable <br />references to AWWA standards and Florida administrative code. <br />That portion of the existing pipeline proposed to be converted is <br />butt fusion welded HDPE pipe, and does not contain any fittings, <br />valves or other appurtenances along its length. Therefore, the only <br />existing component -is the HDPE pipe. There are not any gasketted <br />joints or pipe runs or fittings that are cement lined. <br />All new pipe and fittings will be constructed in accordance with <br />current standards. New facilities are proposed at the connection <br />point of the 16" converted main to an existing 30" water main <br />where connection will be made with 148 If of new 16" water main; <br />at a mid point where a fire hydrant will be cut into the existing 16" <br />converted main; and at the end of the existing 16" converted <br />pipe, where a t, 8" branch line, valve, plug and blow -off will be <br />constructed. (See plans and specifications) <br />3. The water main shall be laid to provide a horizontal distance in <br />accordance with 62-555.314(5): <br />The existing pipeline has been excavated and located, and has <br />been documented in the field. The pipe was found to <br />have the following separation: <br />10.2 ft, 7.0 ft, and 7.7 ft. Of separation from the force main lying <br />south of the pipeline. A min. Of 6 ft is required. <br />11.7 ft., 3.7 ft., and 13.7 ft. of separation from the reclaimed water <br />main lying north of the pipeline. A min. Of 3 ft. is required. (Part iii <br />62-610 fac). <br />An as -built of the existing main was prepared upon the completion <br />of its construction in 1996, which confirms the location and <br />separation from the force main to the north. <br />All new mains are specified to meet the standards (see plans and <br />specifications). <br />The contractor shall further document the pipe condition during construction <br />at all locations where pipe is to be excavated (connection point, flushing point, <br />fire hydrant cut -ins, conflict locations). Documentation shall include as -built <br />locations of depth, separation from other utilities, photos of pipe, markers, <br />etc. <br />02001-2 <br />
