Summary of Work: project is a 90 day duration from signed contract / Notice to Proceed.
1.Bid # 1. All work will take place at the Northeast Florida State Hospital Building # 12 C. The cast iron sewer lines under Build # 12 C (elevated floor above the ground) needs to be removed and replaced with SCH 40 PVC (APX 500 lf) (contractor to verify). This work will stop where the pipe goes underground. The cast iron pipe underground to the clay pipe that is under the sidewalk is not in this scope of work. Try to reuse the hangers if possible. The toilet floor flanges and piping coming down through the floor do not need replacing. Cut the old pipe as close as possible to the floor and attach new pipe. Clean out sewer line sludge (dry or wet) and put in a sealed drum (protect ground from sludge spill/contamination). After the pipe sludge is removed, put all cast iron pipe in a dumpster and recycle the pipe. Provide documentation to DCF / NEFSH for the recycled pipe. When the drum is 80% full, seal drum and turn over to NEFSH Maintenance Department. This work will also include all ground protection and cleaning material to be placed in a sealed drum when pipe cleaning is completed. Contractor site is to be fenced off and secure.
2.Alternate # 1 is to supply and install sink p trap drains that supply water to the sewer lines we are replacing (first floor only). Contractor Verify quantity. Contractor will hold bid price for 120 days. This work might not happen if determined it is not needed or Alternate could be added in March or April 2016.
