3 Execution

3.1 Removals

1. Prior to well or borehole abandonment, all pump equipment, piping, and other debris shall be removed to the extent possible. If equipped, the pitless adapter casing is to be cut below ground (or cut below the discharge fitting) and is to be fully disconnected from the discharge watermain. The well shall also be sounded immediately before it is plugged to make sure that no obstructions exist that will interfere with the filling and sealing.

2. Sealing materials shall be introduced at the bottom of the well or required sealing interval and placed progressively upward to the top of the well. The sealing material shall be placed by the use of a grout pipe, tremie line, dump bailer or equivalent in order to avoid freefall, bridging, or dilution of the sealing materials or separation of aggregates from sealants. Sealing material shall not be installed by freefall (gravity) unless the interval to be sealed is dry and no deeper than 30 feet below ground surface. The well should be capped by means of a welded steel plate immediately after placement of seal materials to allow the seal material to set up and not flow out of the well.





3. Bentonite-based abandonment products shall be mixed and placed according to manufacturer's

recommended procedures and result in a seal free of voids or bridges. Granular or powered bentonite shall not be placed under water. When placing un-hydrated bentonite, a sounding or tamping tool shall be run in the sealing interval during pouring to measure fill-up rate, verify a continuous seal placement, and to break up possible bridges or cake formation.

3.2 Termination of Casing

1. The casings of wells to be abandoned shall be severed a minimum of one (1) metre below either the natural ground surface adjacent to the well or at the collar of the hole, whichever is the lower elevation. A minimum of 600 mm of compacted native material shall be placed above the abandoned well upon completion.

3.3 Surface Seal

1. The interval between the native soil cap and the top of cut off casing shall be sealed with sealing materials that consist of alternating layers of Bentonite (fanned out) and bedding sand throughout the excavated area.

2. The interval between the ground surface and the top of the cut off casing shall be filled with soil material that achieves an in-place hydraulic conductivity equivalent to or less than the surface soil surrounding the well. The ground surface at the sealed well site shall be mounded and graded in a manner that prevents ponding of surface runoff.

1.5 MATERIAL AND WORK SUPPLIED BY OTHERS

.1 Associated drilling, casing and well mechanical items.

.2 Programming and Commissioning of SCADA system.

1.6 RESPONSIBILITY AND COORDINATION

.1 Provide all labour, materials, equipment, tools, and incidentals necessary to provide a

complete system as indicated on the Drawings and as set out in these Specifications.

.2 Without relieving the Contractor of his responsibilities, the Specifications have been

divided into approximate trade sections for convenience. These Sections do not,

however, limit the responsibility of any subcontractor or supplier. The Engineer will not

arbitrate on any dispute between the subcontractors' responsibilities. The onus of

defining the extent of the subcontractors' work remains with the Contractor, who, when

awarding subcontracts, will ensure that the area of responsibility of any particular

subcontractor is set out in full detail.

.3 The Contractor shall advise the Engineer during the tender period of any specified

material or equipment which is either no longer available from manufacturers or whose

delivery is likely to exceed the requirements of the anticipated Construction Schedule.

Failure of the Contractor to perform the above shall cause the Contractor to supply, at his

own expense, alternate material or equipment as selected by the Engineer at a later date.

Alternatively, the Contractor shall procure the specified material or equipment at his own

additional expense by means of air freight or other special means of transportation.

.4 The Drawings and Specifications complement each other and what is called for by one is

binding as if called for by both. If there is any doubt as to the meaning or true intent due

to a discrepancy between the Drawings and Specifications, obtain a ruling from the

Engineer prior to tender closing. Failing this, the most expensive alternative is to be

allowed for.

.5 Advise the Engineer of any specified equipment, material, or installation of same which

appears inadequate or unsuitable or which is in violation of laws, ordinances, rules, or

regulations of authorities having jurisdiction. Provide all labour and materials which are

obviously necessary or reasonably implied to be necessary to complete the work as if the

work was shown on the Drawings and/or described in the Specifications.

Section 26 05 00



.6 Check Drawings of all trades and coordinate the installation of all material and

equipment to ensure adequate space and free access and to maintain headroom

limitations for all proposed and indicated future work. Work out jointly, with all

Subcontractors on the site, solutions to interference problems. Coordinate all work

before fabricating or installing any material or equipment. It is incumbent on all

.2 Check resistance to ground before energizing any equipment.

.3 Phase balance - when load conditions are commensurate with

actual operating conditions, measure the load and the voltage on

each phase at each switchboard, splitter, motor control centre,

motor distribution centre, distribution panelboard, and lighting

and power panelboard and report the results, including neutral

currents, in writing to the Engineer. Rearrange circuit

connections as necessary to balance the load on each phase to

within 15% of average load. After making any such changes,

make available to the Engineer marked prints showing the

modified connections.

.4 Motor loading - measure the line current of each phase of each

motor with the motor operating under load and report the results

Section 26 05 10



along with the motor nameplate current in writing to the

Engineer. Upon indication of any unbalance or overload,

thoroughly examine the electrical connections and rectify any

defective parts or wiring. If electrical connections are correct,

overloads due to defects in the driven machines shall be reported

in writing to the Engineer.

.5 Phase relationship tests: Check connections to all new and

existing equipment, outlets and devices for proper phase

relationship. During such check, disconnect all devices which

could be damaged by the application of voltage or reversed phase

sequence.

.3 Low voltage feeder and branch circuit conductors (600 V and below)

.1 Test for continuity of each lighting and heating circuit originating

from branch distribution panels.

.2 Test for grounds in each circuit; test shall consist of the physical

examination of the installation to ensure that all required ground

jumpers, devices, and appurtenances do exist and are

mechanically firm.

.3 Perform a 500V M-Ohm meter test on each circuit between the

conductor and ground. The insulation resistance shall not be less

than 2 megohms for circuits under 120V, 6 M-Ohms between

conductor and ground on those circuits (120 - 600 V) with total

single conductor length of 2,500 feet and over, nor less than 8 M-

Ohms for those circuits (120 - 600 V) with single conductor

length of less than 2500 feet. If conductor fails test, replace

wiring or correct defect and retest.

an overcurrent device or bolted type connection; torque all

connections per manufacturer's recommendations.

.4 Grounding systems

.1 Verify that neutrals are grounded only at the main service by

removing the service neutral grounding conductor and meggering

the neutral bus.

.2 Perform point-to-point tests to determine the resistance between

the main grounding system and all major electrical equipment

frames, system-neutral, and/or derived neutral points. Investigate

resistance values, which exceed 0.5 ohm. If this resistance cannot

be obtained with the ground system, notify the Contractor and, in

turn, the Engineer for further instruction.

properly installed and free of defects and damage. Technical verification

includes:

.1 Measurements of tension and power.

Section 26 05 10



.2 Connecting joints and equipment fastening.
