with the intent expressed in the Contract Documents.
4.3 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
4.3.1 Definition. A Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of
right, adjustment or interpretation of Contract terms, payment of money, extension of time or
other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract. The term "Claim" also includes other
disputes and matters in question between the Owner and Contractor arising out of or relating to
the Contract. Claims must be initiated by written notice. The responsibility to substantiate Claims
shall rest with the party making the Claim.
4.3.2 Time Limits on Claims. Claims by either party must be initiated within 21 days after
occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first
recognizes the condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later. Claims must be initiated by
written notice to the Architect and the other party.
4.3.3 Continuing Contract Performance. Pending final resolution of a Claim except as
otherwise agreed in writing or as provided in Subparagraph 9.73 and Article 14, the Contractor
shall proceed diligently with performance of the Contract and the Owner shall continue to make
payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.
4.3.4 Claims for Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If conditions are encou the site
which are (n) subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from
those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual

inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, then
notice by the observing party shall be given to the other party promptly before conditions are
disturbed and in no event later than 21 days after first observance of the conditions. The Architect
will promptly investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or
decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of.any part of the Work,
recommend an equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the
aswill
Architect determines that the conditions at the site are not materially different fron those
p
indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified,
1 96
the Architect shall so notify the Owner and Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. Claims by
c�
either party in opposition to such determination must be made within 21 days after the Architect
01 997 A I A O

Filing owned by the Town of Vail.
3.13 COMPACTION
A. Demonstrate method of compaction. Engineer will test compacted demonstration section for
uniform density throughout depth of each lift. Alter construction methods until acceptable to
Engineer. Continue same procedure until significant change in soils occurs, or compaction is
not being achieved, then demonstrate new method.
B. Compaction requirements for all trenches:
1. Predominantly cohesive soils where AASHTO T99 procedures are applicable:
Compact uniformly throughout each lift to 95 %, AASHTO T99.
2. Predominately of rock, to 18" in diameter: Place in loose lifts up to average rock
dimension. Placing of occasional boulders of sizes larger than maximum layer
thickness may be agreed to by Engineer, provided material is carefully placed and
large stones well distributed with voids completely filled with smaller stones, earth,
sand, or gravel. Level and smooth each layer to distribute soils and finer fragments of
earth. Wet each loose layer as necessary to facilitate compaction prior to placing
additional lifts.

3.14 PAVEMENT REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
Score existing surface with a cutting wheel to create clean break line. Remove and dispose of existing
surface and aggregate base course. Leave 6" undisturbed subgrade lip on each side of trench. After
trench has been backfilled and properly compacted, place aggregate base course in accordance with
permit requirements or minimum thickness in these specifications. Compact aggregate base course to
95% AASHTO T180. Replace pavement in accordance with permit requirements or minimum
thickness in these Specifications. Compact asphalt to 95% ASTM D1559; consolidate concrete with
vibrators.
3.15 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Notify Engineer at least 24 hours in advance of pipe being laid in any trench. Cover no pipes
until observed by Engineer. Notify Engineer at least 48 hours before pipe is to be tested.
B. Hydrostatic Testing
1. General: Make pressure and leakage tests on all newly laid pipe. Test two or more
valved sections not to exceed 1000 feet. Test first section of pipe laid to verify if
watertight. Lay no additional pipe until first test section has passed tests. Furnish the
following equipment and materials for tests, unless otherwise directed by Engineer:
2 Graduated containers
2 Pressure gauges
1 Suitable hose and suction pipe as required
2. Testing Procedure: Test each 1000 feet of line installed while trench is partially
backfilled and joints are left exposed for examination for leaks. Do not conduct
pressure tests until 48 hours after placement of concrete thrust blocks. After pipe has
been partially backfilled, slowly let water into line. Vent to allow air in line to be
released. Flush line as necessary for cleaning. Leave water in line for 24 hours prior
to pressure test. Test at 1 -1 /2 times working pressure, calculated for low point of test
section, or 150 psi, whichever is greater. Valve off pump and hold pressure in line for
test. Test for two hours or as agreed to by Engineer. At end of test, operate pump
until test pressure is again attained. Calibrate container of water for pump suction to
determine amount of water to replace leakage.
3. Leakage Allowance: Leakage is quantity of water necessary to refill line at end of test
period. No installation will be accepted until leakage is less than:

*For pipe with 18' nominal lengths. To obtain recommended allowable leakage for
pipe with 20' nominal lengths, multiply the leakage calculated from the table by 0.9. If
pipeline under test contains sections of various diameters, allowable leakage will be
sum of computed leakage for each size. Reduce allowable leakage proportionately
for sections less than 1000 ft.
3.16 FLUSHING AND DISINFECTING
A. General: In accordance with AWWA C601. Acceptable chlorine disinfectants are calcium
hypochlorite granules, sodium hypochlorite solutions, and calcium hypochlorite tablets.
