The catch basin was added to prevent ponding of water behind a newly installed retaining wall. <br /> 3.

When excavating for the new precast vault foundation, a huge concrete backing block <br /> was in the way. To resolve the conflict the existing motor operated butterfly valve and per <br /> Contract to be buried butterfly valve were switched and the precast vault moved to the new <br /> location. <br /> 4. The Contract included removing existing above ground structures that housed the existing <br /> access manholes to existing butterfly valves. The intent was to install new manhole covers with <br /> a removable 6-inch access opening to allow operating the butterfly valves. The existing <br /> manhole covers did not line up with the valve operators so the flat-top concrete manhole covers <br /> were rotated to line up with access ladders and new 6-inch valve covers were installed to allow <br /> operation of the butterfly valves without the need to enter the manholes. <br /> 5. Under the original contract the electrical contractor would have protected existing conduit and <br /> conductors when the general contractor removed the existing 4-line motor operated valve house <br /> and then secured the conduit and conductors after the new precast vault was slid around the <br /> existing conduit.
