CITY OF EVERETT SPECIAL PROVISIONS <br /> Only Everett Public Works Department Water Division personnel and the Project Inspector <br /> may authorize the operation of City fire hydrants or making connections to City water mains. <br /> Upon obtaining City permission, the following shall apply: <br /> 1. Use only those agency designated hydrants in strict accordance with City's <br /> requirements for hydrant use. Obtain a temporary hydrant permit from the <br /> City's Public Works Department Utility Billing. Temporary hydrant permits are <br /> available for a$1,200.00 deposit by contacting the City of Everett's Utility Billing <br /> at 425-257-8999 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Deposit <br /> is refundable. Provide backflow prevention assembly approved by the City. <br /> 2. Secure permission from and comply with all requirements of the City's water <br /> utility before obtaining water from the fire hydrants. Notify the Engineer of City's <br /> permission as soon as granted. <br /> 3. Use hydrant wrenches only to open hydrants. Make certain the hydrant valve <br /> is fully open because "cracking" the hydrant valve causes damage to the <br /> hydrant valve. Provide an approved auxiliary valve on the outlet line for control <br /> purposes. Close fire hydrant valves slowly to avoid a surge in the system that <br /> creates excess pressure on water lines. Carefully note the importance of <br /> following these directions. <br /> 4. If Contractor's employees use the wrong wrench to open a hydrant causing <br /> damage the hydrant valve stem or operating nut or both, the Contractor shall <br /> be responsible for costs associated with repairing the damaged hydrant valve <br /> stem or operating nut or both. Immediately notify the City's water utility so that <br /> the damage can be repaired as quickly as possible. <br /> 5. Notify City water utility immediately upon completing the use of the hydrants so <br /> the hydrants may be inspected for possible damage. City water utility will repair <br /> damage resulting from the use of the hydrants by the Contractor. Contractor <br /> shall be responsible for repair cost and cost, if necessary, shall be withheld <br /> from the final payment to the Contractor. <br /> 6. City water utility will fine Contractor for violation of these requirements. <br /> Contractor shall also be liable for damage suits resulting from malfunctioning <br /> of Contractor damaged fire hydrants not being operational in the event of fire. <br /> 7. There will be no charge for the volume of water used, however water use must <br /> be limited as used appropriately. <br /> 2-08 VACANT <br /> Revise 2-08 to read as follows: <br /> 2.08 STREET CLEANING <br /> (******) <br /> 2-08.1 Description <br /> This Work shall consist of cleaning pavement and removing debris from roadways within the <br /> Project limits and Contractor haul routes.
