Borehole Completion Sample Clauses

Borehole Completion. All boreholes and other penetrations (including direct push sampling, Cone Penetration Test soundings, Standard Penetration Testing, Xxxxxx Penetration Testing,) in and around embankment dams and levees must be sealed after completion. Completing a borehole by backfilling with drill cuttings is not acceptable. All boreholes and similar penetrations in the impervious portions of an embankment dam or levee and their foundations must be backfilled by tremie placed cement-bentonite grout or bentonite pellets/chips. The DPP must address the possibility of confined and separate ground water aquifers and demonstrate safe completion which avoids cross-contamination and leakage. The grout must be designed to obtain strength equal to or greater than the soil. Note that some instrumentation installations may require additional considerations for the grout strength. Gravity grouting techniques should be used for backfilling boreholes. For borings that penetrate zones with low confining stress it is possible to induce hydraulic fracturing from the gravity pressure. When grouting borings in these locations or if significant grout losses are observed, the grout backfilling should be done in stages allowing the grout to set between stages. For pervious portions of the dam or levee, the borehole must be backfilled by tremie placement of granular materials that are sized to provide drainage without being susceptible to migration through the pervious embankment or foundation materials or segregation during placement. Xxxxxxxxxx, xx.xx. (1995) is a good source for borehole backfill guidelines. Special procedures and materials may be required for installation of instrumentation in boreholes.

The date and time of each of the Tests shall be determined by the Authority’s Engineer in consultation with the Contractor, and notified to the Authority who may designate its representative to witness the Tests. The Contractor shall either conduct the Tests as directed by the Authority’s Engineer or provide such assistance as the Authority’s Engineer may reasonably require for conducting the Tests. In the event of the Contractor and the Authority’s Engineer failing to mutually agree on the dates for conducting the Tests, the Contractor shall fix the dates by giving not less than 10 (ten) days’ notice to the Authority’s Engineer.

  • Final Completion The full and final completion of all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

  • Substantial Completion “Substantial Completion” means the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work, or designated portions thereof, may still require minor modifications or adjustments but, in the Owner’s opinion, the Work has progressed to the point such that all parts of the Work under consideration are fully operational and usable for intended purposes, as evidenced by a Certificate of Substantial Completion approved by the Owner. If a Certificate of Occupancy is required by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work, said certificate shall be issued before the Work or any portion thereof is considered substantially complete. When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor shall notify Owner’s Designated Representative (sometimes referred to as the “ODR”) and request a determination as to whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the ODR does not consider the Work substantially complete, the ODR will notify the Contractor giving reasons therefore. Failure on the Owner’s part to list a reason does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. After satisfactorily completing items identified by Owner’s Designated Representative, the Contractor shall then submit another request for the ODR to determine Substantial Completion. If The ODR considers the Work substantially complete, The ODR will prepare and deliver a certificate of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial Completion, shall include a punch list of items to be completed or corrected before final completion and final payment, shall establish the time within which the Contractor shall finish the punch list, and shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and the Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work, warranty and insurance. Failure to include an item on the punch list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The certificate of Substantial Completion shall be signed by the Owner and the Contractor to evidence acceptance of the responsibilities assigned to them in such certificate. Substantial Completion (as defined in this agreement) for all stages of the Work shall be achieved on or before the following Substantial Completion date: DATE FOR SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION: TBD Under no circumstances will the time for Substantial Completion exceed this date without a written amendment to this Agreement. THE TIMES SET FORTH IN THE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS ARE AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT. TIME LIMITS STATED IN THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS ARE OF THE ESSENCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
