Alderman hiller stated that he had opposed the purchase of the property because (1) planning in the matter had been done too hastily and in the reverse order of the usual order employed, (2) that, if ultimately the building is to be torn down and used as a site for off - street parking, the City might better have bought the Library building for such a purpose at a lesser cost, and (3) that he doubted it had been properly considered in relation to a capital budget which is an example of government by legislative committee. :. 2 - Nlarch 16, 1968 Planning Connissioner I11iscall recommended that,.in moving city offices to the Eagles temporarily, consideration be given to moving the Youth Bureau there and in turn moving the City Court and its offices into City Hall where he envisioned the use of the Council Room during the day as the City Courtroom.

By Alderman Mueller: seconded by Alderman Baldwin RESOLVED, that the Common Council formally request the joint recommendations of the Board of Public Works and the Planning Board relative to downtoom parking, covering the following points: a. Determination of total parking needs in the central business and other high valuation districts which can then be adopted by the Council as the firm goal of the City. b. Determination of how march of the parking is to be off - street, and how much to be on- street. C. Determination of how much parking shall be publicly - financed and how much to be privately-financed. d. Determination of a specific timetable to achieve this goal over five years. e. Determination of total capital and operating costs, specific plans and locations, or in other words, all the factual information needed by this Common Council to intelligently implement a broad program. f. Review of previous Capital Budget submissions to insure the funds necessary to achieve this program. g. Determination of policy decisions required from the Common Council necess.�r- to complete the studies and to prepare serious recommendations. It is the feeling of the Finance Committee that now is the time to vigorously attach the parking problem in the downtown business districts. We believe, that with caretul study, it is possible to balance capital - carrying costs against operational savings and increased parking revenues.

"Recent subdivision development on West Hill and the probability of another in the near mature raises the question of the equity of the present Board rules requiring the subdivider to provide all necessary drainage structures. There are three or four small streams within the City which course down West Hill and have created substantial gullies. Each of these drains a sizeable water shed beyond the City limits. Each will require far larger culverts under any roads which may cross theta than any reasonable drainage requirement of an adjacent sub- division. On the basis of this report it is recommended to the Board that the Board Rules on acceptance of streets, adopted May 23. 1951, be revised placing a maximum of 24 inch diameter on the City's requirements of a subdivider and the City to assume such additional costs as may be needed."

Rules Governing Installation and Operation of Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Equipment Whereas the operation of water cooled refrigeration and other equipment for changing the dry bulb tempera - ature or the humidity of air has rapidly increased and now involves the use of water in quantities never before anticipated, thereby placing unexpected burdens on the public water supply system which are detrimental to other classes of water service. And Whereas, in the interest of the public and its water supply system, it is necessary to regulate the use of water for such purposes and to require conservation of water and the elimination of waste. Now, therefore be it resolved that the following regula- tions shall apply to all water - cooled equipment installed for the purpose of reducing the dry bulb temperature or decreasing the absolute humidity of air, whether for com- fort air conditioning, refrigeration, processing or what- ever other purposes. 40. Definitions For the purpose of these regulations, the following terms shall have, and shall be construed to have, the fol- lowing meanings: (a) The term "air conditioning" system and "Refriger- ation" system shall include any combination of equip- ment, whether compressor or other type, by which heat is removed from the air and from which the accumulated or effluent heat is wholly or partially removed by the use of water. (b) "Air Conditioning System" shall mean an instal- lation for maintenance, by heat removal, of temperatures which are not less than 60 °F. (c) "Refrigeration System" shall mean an installation for maintenance, by heat removal of temperatures which are less than 60 °F. (d) "System" shall mean any combination of appara- tus, individual unit, group or collection of units supplied with water through any single customer service pipe con- nected to the public water system. (e) "Person" shall mean and include a natural person, partnership, corporation or association. Whenever used with respect to any penalty, the term "person" as applied to partnerships or associations, shall mean the partners or members thereof, and as applied to corporations, the officers thereof. (f) For the purposes of these regulations, in no event shall the rated capacity in tons be considered less than the following: 1. Total maximum B.T.U. per hour of capacity on the installation divided by 12,000, or 2. The name -plate horsepower of any compressor prime mover unit, for any air - conditioning installation or 3. Two- thirds the name -plate horsepower of (2) above for any refrigeration installation. 41. Permit Required No person shall install, operate or use any equipment for air conditioning or refrigeration which requires a sup. ply of water from the system of the City of Ithaca without first having procured written permit therefore from the office of the Water and Sewer Division. 42.

Y. General information to Engineers, Contractors and per- sons or corporations contemplating the construction of water and /or sewer lines connecting to the City systems. It is the intent of these specifications to outline the minimum acceptable requirements governing the construc- tion of, and materials used in water and sewer mains which will connect with the Ithaca water and sewer systems, whether constructed for the City, either by City forces under the direction of the Superintendent of Public Works, or by a contractor under an agreement with the City; or constructed for private individuals, corporations, or Water Districts, who may have received a permit, to connect with the City system and which water and sewer mains are to be built by themselves or by contractors under an agreement with them. No connections to any mains in the water or sewer system may be made until such connections are authorized by the Board of Public Works, and the plans for the water or sewer main extension are approved by the Board of Public Works. All work done on water and /or sewer main extensions connecting to the Ithaca systems must conform to these specifications, and must be done under the supervision and inspection of the Superintendent of Public Works of the Board of Public Works, or under such inspection as may be otherwise ordered by the Board of Public Works. The term "Inspector" hereinafter used will mean the duly designated representative of the Board of Public Works. The rules and regulations of the Board of Public Works adopted June 8, 1960 and effective July 1, 1960 gov- erning the installation and use of service lines and mains, and the Plumbing Code of the City of Ithaca, shall be considered a part of these specifications and shall govern such conditions as are not herein specifically described. I— GENERAL I -A EXCAVATION AND PREPARATION OF TRENCH I -A -1. Description The trench shall be excavated to full depth and grade for a distance of at least 50 feet in advance of pipe lay- ing, but not more than one average days pipe laying in advance of the work. The trench shall be so braced and drained that the workmen may work therein safely and efficiently. It is essential that the discharge from the trench dewatering pumps be conducted to natural drain- age channels, drains or storm sewers. I -A -2. Width of Trench The width of trench shall be ample to permit the pipe to be laid and jointed properly, and the backfili to be placed and compacted as specified. Trenches shall be of such extra width, when required, as will permit the con- venient placing of timber supports, sheeting and bracing, and handling of fittings. Minimum width shall be sufficient to give clearance of at least eight inches either side of the barrel of the pipe. 12 I -A -3. Bell Holes Bell holes shall be provided at each joint to permit the jointing to be made properly. I -A -4. Pipe Clearance in Rock Ledge rock, boulders, and large stones shall be removed to provide a clearance of at least 6 inches below and 8 inches on each side of all pipe and fittings. I -A -5. Excavation to Grade The trench shall he excavated to the depth required so as to provide a uniform and continuous bearing and support for the pipe on solid and undisturbed ground at every point between bell holes. Any part of the bottom of the trench excavated below the specified grade shall be corrected with approved material, and thoroughly compacted as directed by the Inspector. The finished grade shall be prepared accurately by means of hand tools. The subgrade beneath the centerline of the pipe shall be finished to within 0.03 ft. of a straight line between pipe joints or batter boards. All tolerance shall be above specified grade. If, in the opinion of the Inspector, soil conditions are encountered at subgrade which require all or part of the work to be done in accordance with Section I -A -6, the In- spector shall have the authority to order the work to be done. I -A -6. Excavation in Poor Soil or Rock Where the bottom of the trench at subgrade is found to be unstable or to include ashes, cinders, all types of refuse, vegetable or other organic material, large pieces or fragments of inorganic material, or rock, which in the judgment of the Inspector should be removed, the Con- tractor shall excavate and remove such unsuitable material to the width and depth ordered by the Inspector. Before the pipe is laid, the subgrade shall be made by backfill- ing with an approved material in 3" uncompacted layers. The layers shall be thoroughly tamped as directed by the Inspector so as to provide a continuous bearing and sup- port for the pipe at every point between the bell holes. The finished subgrade shall be prepared accurately by means of hand tools. The subgrade beneath the centerline of the pipe shall be finished to within 0.03 ft. of a straight line between bell holes or batter boards, and all tolerances shall be above the specified grade. I -A -7. Special Foundation in Poor Soil Where the bottom of the trench at subgrade is found to consist of material which is unstable to such a degree that, in the opinion of the Inspector, it can not be re- moved and replaced with an approved material thoroughly compacted in place to support the pipe properly, the con- Letor shall construct a foundation for the pipe, consist- ; of piling, timber or other materials, in accordance th plans approved by the Board of Public Works. k -8. Blasting Blasting for excavation will be permitted only after curing the approval of the Inspector and only when ,oiler precautions are taken for the protection of persons property. The hours of blasting will be fixed by the ispector. Any damage caused by blasting shall be re- fired by the contractor at his expense. The contractor's tethods of procedure shall conform with State laws -1d municipal ordinances. A -9. Braced and Sheeted Trenches Open -cut trenches shall be sheeted and braced as re. uired by any governing state laws, and as may be neces- ary to protect life, property or the work. When close heeting is required, it shall be so driven as to prevent .djacent soil from entering the trench either below or hrough such sheeting. Where sheeting and bracing are ised the trench width shall be increased accordingly. The Inspector reserves the right to order the sheeting Iriven to the full depth of the trench or to such additional iepths as may be required for the protection of the work. Where the soil in the lower limits of a trench has the necessary stability, the Inspector, at his discretion, may permit the contractor to stop the driving of sheeting at some designated elevation above the trench bottom. The granting of permission by the Inspector, however, shall not relieve the contractor in any degree from his full responsibility under the contract. Sheeting and bracing which have been ordered left in place must be removed for a distance of 3 ft. below the es- tablished street grade or the existing surface of the street, whichever is lower. Trench bracing, except that which must be left in place, may be removed when the back. filling has reached the respective levels of such bracing. Sheeting, except that which has been left in place, may be removed after the backfilling has been completed or has been brought up to such an elevation as to permit its safe removal. Sheeting and bracing may be removed before flushing the trench, but only in such manner as will in- sure the adequate protection of the completed water and/ or sewer structures, and prevent the disturbance of adja- cent ground. I -A -10. Care of Surface Material for Reuse All surface materials which, in the opinion of the In- spector, are suitable for reuse in restoring the surface shall be kept separate from the general excavation material, as directed by the Inspector. I -A -11. Piling Excavated Material All excavated material shall be piled in a manner that will not endanger the work and that will avoid obstruct- ing sidewalks, and driveways. Hydrants under pressure, valve pit covers, valve boxes, curb stop boxes, fire and police call boxes, or other utility controls shall be left un- obstructed and accessible until the work is completed. Gutters shall be kept clear or other satisfactory provisions made for street drainage, and natural water courses shall not be obstructed. I -A -12. Trenching by Hand Methods Hand methods for excavations shall be employed in locations where obst fuctions are shown on drawings or where, in the opinion of the Inspector, property can best be protected by digging by hand. In other locations the contractor may use trench digging machinery. I -A -13. Barricades, Guards and Safety Provisions To protect persons from injury and to avoid property damage, adequate barricades, construction signs, torches, lanterns and guards as required shall be placed and main- tained during the progress of the construction work and until it is safe for traffic to use the highway. All material piles, equipment and pipe which may serve as obstruc- tions to traffic shall be enclosed by fences or barricades and shall be protected by proper lights when the visibility is poor. The Rules and Regulations of the local authorities respecting safety provisions shall be observed. I -A -14. Maintenance of Traffic and Closing of Streets The contractor shall carry on the work in a manner which will cause the least interruption to traffic, and may close to travel not more than two consecutive blocks, upon the specific permission of the City, including the cross street intersected. Where traffic must cross open trenches, the contractor shall provide suitable bridges at street intersections and driveways. The contractor shall post, where directed by the Inspec- tor, suitable signs indicating that a street is closed and necessary detour signs for the proper maintenance of traffic. I -A -15. Structure Protection Temporary support, adequate protection and mainte- nance of all underground and surface structures, drains, sewers and other obstructions encountered in the progress of the work shall be furnished by the contractor at his expense and under the direction of the Inspector. The structures which may have been disturbed shall be restored upon completion of the work. I -A -16. Protection of Property and Surface Structures Trees, shrubbery, fences, poles and all other property and surface structures shall be protected unless their removal is shown on the drawings or authorized by the Inspector. When it is necessary to cut roots and tree branches, such cutting shall be done under the supervision of the Inspector. I -B BACKFILLING I -B -1. Backfill Material All backfill material shall be free from cinders, ashes, refuse, vegetable or organic material, boulders, rocks or stones, or other material which in the opinion of the In- spector is unsuitable. However, from 1 ft. above the top of the pipe to the subgrade of the pavement, material con- taining stones up to 8 in. in their greatest dimension may be used, unless specified otherwise herein. I -13-2. Use of Excavated Material as Baekfall When the type of backfill material is not indicated on 13 the drawings or specifications, the contractor may backfill with the excavated material, provided that such material consists of loam, clay, sand, gravel, or other material which, in the opinion of the Inspector, are suitable for backfilling. I -B -3. Sand or Gravel Backfill Where sand or gravel backfill is not indicated on the drawings or specified herein, and in the opinion of the Inspector should be used in any part of the work, the con- tractor shall furnish and backfill with sand or gravel as directed. I -B -4. Backfilling Under Pipe All trenches shall be backfilled by hand, from the bot- tom of the trench to the centerline of the pipe, with sand, gravel, or other approved material placed in layers of 3 in. and compacted by tamping. Backfilling material shall be deposited in the trench for its full width on each side of the pipe, fittings and appurtenances simultaneously. I -B -S. Backfilling Over Pipe From the centerline of the pipe, fittings and appurte- naces to a depth of I ft. above the top of the pipe, the trench shall be backfilled by hand or by approved mechanical methods. The contractor shall use special care in placing this portion of the backfill so as to avoid injur- ing or moving the pipe. The backfill material from the centerline of the pipe to 1 ft. above the pipe shall consist of approved excavated material which shall be placed in 3 in. layers and com- pacted by tamping. I -B -6. Backfilling in Freezing Weather Backfilling shall not be done in freezing weather except by permission of the Inspector, and it shall not be made with frozen material. No fill shall be made where the material already in the trench is frozen. I -B -7. Backfill Sand All sand used for backfill shall be a natural bank sand, graded from fine to coarse, not lumpy, or frozen, and free from slag, cinders, ashes, rubbish or other material which, in the opinion of the Inspector, is objectionable or dele- terious.

General The water main shall be laid and maintained to the re- quired lines and grades with fittings, valves and hydrants at the required locations; spigots centered in bells; and all valves and hydrant stems plumb. Any changes in either line or grade shall be made by using the proper fittings, and not by crowding the joints, except in laying pipe along a curved line the Inspector may approve a small deviation in alignment at each joint. See Sec. II -E -7. II -D -2. Depth of Pipe The top of the pipe shall be laid to a minimum depth of four (4) feet below the established grade. Any varia- tions therefrom shall be made only with the approval of the Inspector. II -E LAYING lI -E -1. Handling of Water Main .Material into Trench Proper implements, tools and facilities satisfactory to the Inspector shall be provided and used for the safe and convenient prosecution of the work. All pipes, fittings, valves and hydrants shall be carefully lowered into the trench piece by piece by means of a derrick, ropes or other suitable tools or equipment, in such a manner as to prevent damage to water main materials and protective coatings and linings. Under no circumstances shall water main materials be dropped or dumped into the trench. II -E -2. Hammer Test The pipe and fittings shall be inspected for defects and, while suspended above grade, be rung with a light ham- mer to detect cracks. II -E -3. Cleaning Pipe and Fittings All lumps, blisters and excess tar -coat coating shall be removed from the bell- and - spigot end of each pipe, and the outside of the spigot and the inside of the bell shall be wire - brushed and wiped clean and dry and free from oil and grease before the pipe is laid. II -E -4. Laying Pipe Every precaution shall be taken to prevent foreign material from entering the pipe while it is being placed in the line. If the pipe - laying crew can not put the pipe into the trench and in place without getting earth into it, the Inspector may require that before lowering the pipe into the trench, a heavy, tightly woven canvas bag of suitable size shall be placed over each end and left there until the connection is to be made to the adjacent pipe. During lay- ing operations, no debris, tools, clothing or other mate- rials shall be placed in the pipe. After placing a length of pipe in the trench, the spigot end shall be centered in the bell and the pipe forced home and brought to correct line and grade. The pipe shall be secured in place with approved backfill material tamped under it except at the bells. Pipe and fittings which do not allow a sufficient and uniform space for joints shall be re- moved and replaced with pipe and fittings of proper dimensions to insure such uniform space. Precautions shall be taken to prevent dirt from entering the joint space. At times when pipe laying is not in progress, the open ends of pipe shall be closed by a watertight plug or other means approved by the Inspector. Joints of pipe in the trench which can not be poured shall be calked with pack- ing to make them as watertight as possible. This provision shall apply during the noon hour as well as overnight. If water is in the trench, the seal shall remain in place until the trench is pumped completely dry. II -E -S. Cutting Pipe The cutting of pipe for inserting valves, fittings, or 15 closure pieces shall be done in a neat and workmanlike manner without damage to the pipe or cement lining and so as to leave a smooth end at right angles to the axis of the pipe. When machine cutting is not available for cutting pipe 20 in. in diameter or larger, the electric -arc cutting method will be permitted using a carbon or steel rod. Only qualified and experienced workmen shall be used on this work. The flame cutting of pipe by means of an oxyacetylene torch shall not be allowed. II -E -6. Bell Ends to Face Direction of Laying Pipe shall be laid with bell ends facing in the direction of laying unless directed otherwise by the Inspector. II -E -7. Permissible Deflection at Joints Wherever it is necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line, either in the vertical or horizontal plane, to avoid obstruction or plumb stems, or where long- radius curves are permitted, the amount of deflection allowed shall not exceed that required for satisfactory calking of the joint, and shall be approved by the Inspector.

Where valves are in manholes the operating nut shall be readily accessible for operation through the opening in the manhole, which shall be set flush with the sur- face of the finished pavement. Manholes shall be so constructed as to permit minor repairs and afford pro- tection to the valve and pipe from impact where they pass through the manhole wall. II -G -3. Drainage of Mains Mains shall be drained through drainage branches or blowoffs to dry wells from which the water can be pumped. Drainage branches, blowoffs, air vents and ap- purtenances shall be provided with gate valves and shall be located and installed as shown on the plans. Drainage branches or blowoffs shall not be connected to any sewer, submerged in any stream or be installed in any other manner that will permit back siphonage into the distribution system. II -G -4. Dead Ends All dead ends on new mains shall be closed with cast iron plugs or caps, with or without a blowoff cock, as shown on the drawings. II -H SETTING HYDRANTS II -H -1. Location Hydrants shall be located as shown or as directed and in a manner to provide complete accessibility, and also in such a manner that the possibility of damage from vehicles or injury to pedestrians will be minimized. When placed behind the curb, the hydrant barrel shall be set so that no portion of the pumper or hoze nozzle cap will be less than 6 in. nor more than 12 in. from the gutter face of the curb. When set in the lawn space between the curb and the sidewalk, or between the sidewalk and the property line, no portion of the hydrant or nozzle cap shall be within 6 in. of the sidewalk. II -H -2. Position All hydrants shall stand plumb and shall have their nozzles parallel with or at right angles to the curb, with the pumper nozzle facing the curb, except that hydrants having two hose nozzles 90 degrees apart shall be set with each nozzle facing the curb at an angle of 45 degrees. Hydrants shall be set to the established grade, with nozzles at least 12 inches above the ground, as shown or as di- rected by the Inspector. II -H -3. Connection to Main Each hydrant shall be connected to the main with a 6" cast -iron branch controlled by an independent 6" gate valve, except as otherwise directed. II -H -4. Hydrant Drainage in Pervious Soil* Wherever a hydrant is set in soil that is pervious, drain- age shall be provided at the base of the hydrant by plac- ing coarse gravel or crushed stone mixed with coarse sand, from the bottom of the trench to at least 6 inches above the waste opening in the hydrant and to a distance of 1 ft. around the elbow. No drainage system shall be connected to the sewer. II -H -5. Hydrant Drainage in Impervious Soil* Wherever a hydrant is set in clay or other impervious soil, a drainage pit 2 ft. in diameter and 3 ft. deep shall be excavated below each hydrant and filled compactly with coarse gravel or crushed stone mixed with coarse sand, under and around the elbow of the hydrant and to a level of 6 inches above the waste opening. *Note: The Inspector shall determine whether II -H -4 or II -H -5 is applicable. II -I ANCHORAGE II -I -1. Anchorage for Hydrants The bowl of each hydrant shall be well braced against unexcavated earth at the end of the trench with stone or slabs or concrete backing. 1I -I -2. Anchorage, for Plugs, Caps, Tees and Bends All plugs, caps, tees and bends deflecting 221/2 degrees or more on mains 8 inches in diameter or larger shall be provided with a reaction backing. II -I -3. Reaction Backing Reaction backing shall be concrete of a mix not leaner than 1 cement: 21/2 sand: 5 stone, and having a compres- sive strength of not less than 2,000 psi, at 28 days. Back- ing shall be placed between solid ground and the fitting to be anchored; the area of bearing on the pipe and on the ground in each instance shall be that shown or di- rected by the Inspector. The backing shall, unless other- wise shown or directed, be so placed that the pipe and fitting joints will be accessible for repair. II -J HYDROSTATIC TESTS II-J -l. Pressure Test After the pipe has been laid and partially backfilled as directed by the Inspector, all newly laid pipe, or any valved section thereof, shall be subject to a hydrostatic pressure equal to a pressure 500/o greater than the com- puted working pressure of the section under test based on the lowest point in the section under test and corrected to the elevation of the test gage. II -J -2. Duration of Pressure Test The duration of each pressure test shall be at least one hour. II -J -3. Procedure Each valved section of pipe shall be slowly filled with water and the specified test pressure, based an the eleva- tion of the lowest point of the line or section under test and corrected to the elevation of the test gage, shall be ap- plied by means of a pump connected to the pipe in a man- ner satisfactory to the Inspector. U.N. Expelling Air before Test Before applying the specified test pressure, all air shall be expelled from the pipe. If hydrants or blow -offs are not available at high places, taps at points of highest ele- vation shalt be made before the test is made, and plugs inserted after the test has been completed. II.J -5. Examination Under Pressure All exposed pipes, fittings, valves, hydrants and joints shall be carefully examined during the open - trench test. Joints showing visible leaks shall be recalked until tight. 17 Any cracked or defective pipe, fittings, valves or hydrants discovered in consequence of this pressure test shall be re- moved and replaced with sound material, and the test shall be repeated until satisfactory to the Inspector. II -J -6. Leakage Test A leakage test shall be conducted after the pressure test has been satisfactorily completed. The duration of each leakage test shall be two hours, and during the test the main shall be subject to a pressure equal to the computed working pressure of the lowest point in the section and cor- rected to gage elevation except that the test pressure shall be a minimum of 100 lbs. sq. in. in the lowest point in the section. Leakage is defined as the quantity of water to be sup- plied into the new laid pipe, or any valved section thereof, necessary to maintain the specified leakage test pressure after the pipe has been filled with water and the air ex- pelled. No pipe installation will be accepted until the leakage is less than the number of gallons per hour as determined by the formula: L =ND-\/P /1,850 in which L equals the allowable leakage in gallons per hour; N is the number of joints in the length of pipe tested; D is the normal diameter of the pipe, in inches; and P is the average test pressure during the leakage test, in pounds per square inch gage. II -J -7. Variation from Permissible Leakage Should any test of pipe laid disclose leakage greater than that specified in Section II -J -6, the defective joints shall be located and repaired until the leakage is within the specified allowance. II -J -B. Time for Making Test of Pipe Lead- jointed pipe may be subjected to hydrostatic pres- sure and inspected and tested for leakage at any conveni- ent time after the trench has been partially backfilled ex. cept at the joints. Where any section of a main is provided with concrete reaction backing, the hydrostatic pressure test shall not be made until at least five days have elapsed after the con- crete reaction backing was installed. If high - early - strength cement is used in the concrete reaction backing, the hydro- static pressure test shall not be made until at least two days have elapsed. II -J -9. Interruption of Service No valve or other control on the existing system shall be operated for any purpose by the contractor. The City will operate all valves, hydrants, blow -offs and curb stops. II -K DISINFECTION II -K -l. Form of Chlorine and Means of Application Before being placed in service, all new water distribu- tion systems and repaired portions of, or extensions to, existing systems shall be chlorinated. If the available water is more alkaline than pH 8, the holding time in the main shall be increased at the discretion of the engineer. 18 II -K -2. Form of Applied Chlorine Any of the following methods of procedure (arranged in ordler of preference) shall be followed, subject to the approval of the engineer: Liquide chlorine gas -water mixture Direct chlorine feed ................... ..... Calcium or sodium hypochlorite and water mixture ....................... . .. . .. ...... Chlorinated lime and water mixture II -K -3. Liquid Chlorine A chlorine gas -water mixture shall be applied by means of a solution -feed chlorinating device, or, if approved by the engineer, the dry gas may be fed directly through proper devices for regulating the rate of flow and provid- ing effective diffusion of the gas into the water within the pipe being treated. Chlorinating devices for feeding solu- tions of the chlorine gas or the gas itself must provide means for preventing the backflow of water into the chlorine cylinder. II -K -4. Chlorine bearing Compounds in Water On approval of the engineer, a mixture of water and a chlorine- bearing compound of known chlorine content may be substituted as an alternative for liquid chlorine. II- K -4.1. Chlorine - bearing Compounds The chlorine- bearing compounds which may be used are: (1) calcium hypochlorite, (comparable to commer- cial products known as "HTH," "Perchloron" and "Pittch- lor"), (2) chlorinated lime (frequently called chloride of lime and known to industry as bleaching powder) and (3) sodium hypochlorite. The use of a chlorinated lime which is low in available chlorine content increases the sludge problem and inter- feres with feeder operation. Exposure to the atmosphere and sunlight results in the loss of chlorine before or after being mixed with water. II- K -4.2. Proportions of Mixtures A 5 per cent solution of the powder shall be prepared, consisting of 5 per cent of powder to 95 per cent of water by weight, due attention being given to the chlorine con- tent of the product used. This calcium hypochlorite or chlorinated lime and water mixture, first made into a paste and then thinned to a slurry with clean water, shall be injected or pumped into the newly laid pipe after prelimi- nary flushing. If sodium hypochlorite is used mix the solu- tion as purchased, with water to obtain the desired con- centration of chlorine and feed into the pipe under treat- ment in the same manner as is used for feeding other hypochlorites. II -K -S. Point of Application The preferred point of application of the chlorinating agent shall be at the beginning of the pipeline extension or any valved section of it and through a corporation stop inserted by the owner (except in new distribution sys- tem) in the top of the newly laid pipe. The water injec- tor for delivering the chlorine- bearing water into the pipe should be supplied from a tap on the pressure side of the gate valve controlling the flow into the pipeline extension. In a new system, application of chlorine may be made ad- vantageously at the pumping station, the elevated tank, the standpipe or the reservoir. When properly cleaned first, these units are thus chlorinated adequately. II -K -6. Rate of Application Water from the existing distribution system or other source of supply shall be controlled so as to flow slowly into the newly laid pipeline during the application of chlorine. The rate of chlorine mixture flow shall be in such proportion to the rate of water entering the pipe that the chlorine dose applied to the water entering the newly laid pipe shall be at least 40 to 50 ppm. This may require as much as 100 ppm. of chlorine in the water left in the line after chlorination. A convenient method of de- termining the rate of flow of water into the line to be treated is to start with the line full of water and measure the rate of discharge at a hydrant with a pilot gage. Great flexibility is made possible by providing a series of ori- fices to give good gage readings at high and low flows. II -K -7. Preventing Reverse Flow Valves shall be manipulated so that the strong chlorine solution in the line being treated will not flow back into the line supplying the water. II -K -B. Retention Period Treated water shall be retained in the pipe long enough to destroy all nonspore - forming bacteria. This period should be at least 24 hours and preferably longer, as may be directed. After the chlorine- treated water has been re- tained for the required time, the chlorine residual at the pipe extremities and at other representative points should be at least 25 ppm. II -K -9. Chlorinating Valves and Hydrants In the process of chlorinating newly laid pipe, all valves or other appurtenances shall be operated while the pipe- line is filled with the chlorinating agent. II -K -10. Final Flushing and Test Following chlorination, all tread water shall be thor- oughly flushed from the newly laid pipeline at its extremi- ties until the replacement water throughout its length shall, upon test, be proved comparable to the quality of water served the public from the existing water supply system and approved by the public health authority having juris- diction. This quality of water delivered by the new main should continue for a period of at least two full days as demonstrated by laboratory examination of samples taken from a tap located and installed in such a way as to pre- vent outside contamination. Samples should never be taken from a fire hydrant, because such samples seldom meet current bacteriological standards. II -K -11. Repetition of Procedure Should the initial treatment fail to result in the condi- tions specified in Sec. K -10, the chlorination procedure shall be repeated until such results are obtained. III —SEWER MAINS III -A MATERIALS TO BE USED III -A -1. Pipe and Fittings All sewer mains shall be laid with vitrified clay pipe and fittings conforming to A.S.T.M. specifications for standard strength clay sewer pipe. All pipe, used in sewer mains, shall have a minimum inside diameter of 8 ". Pipe shall be either 3 ft. or 4 ft. lengths. No specifications for concrete, or cement asbestos pipe sewers are herein contained. The construction of these sewers is not prohibited and may be done under standard specifications submitted to and approved by the Board of Public Works. III -A -2. Manholes Manholes shall be constructed at every change of line or grade of the sewer main, at every main intersection or branch, (except branches for house connections) and in straight runs of main so that the distance between man- holes shall not exceed 300 feet, except where the grade of the sewer is more than five (5) feet in one hundred (100) feet the distance between the manholes shall not exceed two hundred fifty (250) feet. Manholes may be built of concrete masonry of 1 -2 -4 concrete, using tight smooth forms. Manholes may be built of brick masonry using hard pressed brick. Every fifth course of brick shall be laid as stretchers, the remainder to be headers. Every brick shall have full mortar joints on the bottom and sides which shall be formed at one operation by placing sufficient mortar on the bed and forcing the brick into it. Horizontal joints shall not exceed 3/8" and vertical joints on the inside of the manholes shall not exceed 1/4 ". Joints on the inside face are to be carefully rubbed full and struck as a manhole is built up. The outside of the manhole shall be smoothly and evenly plastered with cement mortar one -half inch thick. Such plaster coat shall be applied in one operation after all brick has been placed and must not be applied by the mason working within the manhole as the brick courses are laid up. Plaster shall be proportioned 1 part Portland cement to two and one -half (21/2) parts mortar sand. Manhole Bottoms. Inverts of manholes shall be formed by running the sewer pipe through the manhole cutting out the top half of the pipe after the manhole has been completed. Concrete bottoms of manholes shall be placed in two layers. The top of the bottom layer shall be level with the horizontal diameter of the pipe, and upon this layer the brick masonry shall be started. The depth of this concrete shall be everywhere at least six (6) inches thick. Particular care must be exercised to insure this depth under the invert. After the top of the tile has been cut off and the invert left in the concrete base, a second concrete floor must be applied on top of the original bottom to the height of the top of the sewer pipe leaving the manhole. This floor shall be neatly shaped to meet the cut half of the sewer pipe, and shall serve to confine the sewage from overflowing on the manhole bottom if the sewer should flow more than half full. Where invert of manhole is below ground water level, manholes shall be waterproof on the outside of the plaster coat with suitable bituminous waterproofing to a line one foot higher than the apparent ground water level. In wet 19 trenches water shall be kept drained away from manholes until the concrete work is set. No backfilling shall be done until the plaster coat on the outside of the manhole shall have set for twenty -four hours. In freezing weather customary precautions of heating materials and after protection shall be followed. .Steps. Steps of cast iron or of galvanized wrought iron, 3/�" in diameter, shall be securely placed in the inside of the manhole during construction, not more than 18 inches apart. Diameter. Manholes five (5) feet deep or less shall have an inside diameter of four (4) feet at the bottom. Manholes ten (10) feet deep shall be five (5) feet in inside diameter and at intermediate depths the diameter shall be in proportion. Frames and Covers. Manhole covers shall be set to the grade given by the Inspector. Covers of manholes in streets shall correspond to the type used and approved by the City of Ithaca in 1932, frame and cover to weigh not less than 480 lbs. Depth of frame eight (8) inches, diam- eter of cover twenty -four (24) inches. Manholes in park - ings where no traffic can be expected may use covers of the light weight type used in the City of Ithaca prior to 1932. Weight of frame and cover not less than 245 lbs., depth of frame 4 inches. III -B DISPOSITION OF DEFECTIVE MATERIAL All material found during the progress of the work to have cracks, flaws, blisters or other defects shall be re- jected by the Inspector. All defective material shall be promptly removed from the site. III -C ALIGNMENT AND GRADE Sewers shall be laid straight to line and grade between manholes unless otherwise approved by the Board of Pub- lic Works. In all cases any abrupt change of direction or branch from the main, excepting a house service, shall be made with standard fittings, in manholes and so arranged that sewer cleaning rods can be used in all lines from the manhole. All changes in direction in sewer mains shall be made with standard tile fittings with one - eighth or quarter bends, or with wye branches and one- eighth bends. The alignment and grade of the sewer line shall be checked from a string line stretched along the center of the pipe between batterboards, at every 25 feet. The batter board grades are taken from the engineer's grade stakes. The elevation of the batter boards above the invert of the pipe shall be constant for adjacent batter boards. Batter boards shall be set at every change in line and grade. III -D LAYING III -D -1. Handling Main Material into Trench Proper implements, tools, and facilities satisfactory to the Inspector shall be provided and used for the safe and convenient prosecution of the work. All pipe and fittings shall be carefully lowered into the trench piece by piece by means of a derrick, ropes or other suitable tools or equip. ment, in such a manner as to prevent damage to sewer main materials. Under no circumstances shall sewer main material be dropped or dumped into the trench. 20 III -D -2. Pipe Laying All pipe shall be laid with ends abutting and true to line and grade, so fitted and matched that a smooth uni- form invert will be formed. The bottom of the trench shall be shaped so as to conform as nearly as possible to the outside of the pipe, particular care being taken to recess the bottom of the trench in such a manner as to relieve the bell of all load. III -D -3. Depth In streets or highways sewers shall be laid to a mini- mum depth of three feet, grade permitting. III -D -4. Unsuitable Conditions for Laying Pipe No pipe shall be laid in water or when, in the opinion of the Inspector, trench conditions are unsuitable. III -E JOINTING III -E -1. Joints Pipe joints shall be made with a plastic compound hav- ing a bituminous base. This material shall be that known as G -K pipe joints compound 281 -C or approved equal. It shall have a bituminous base, shall adhere firmly to the glazed surface of the pipes, melt and run freely at a tem- perature as low as 250F and when set shall be sufficiently plastic to permit of a slight movement of the pipes without injury to the joints or breaking of adhesions of a com- pound to the pipe. The compound shall be heated to a temperature of ap- proximately 400F. Before pouring the joints shall be thoroughly calked with a closely twisted gasket of dry hemp or jute, of sufficient thickness to bring the inverts smooth and true. Large pipes when calked, shall have about two inches for compound and small pipes about one inch or one and one -half (11/2) inches. After the pipes are properly calked, a joint runner "Flexform" or approved equal shall be placed and the compound poured it shall completely fill the annular space and provide a bevel joint extending in front of the lip of the bell and over it for a fraction of an inch. In case the pipe joint is not completely filled, it shall be poured again with hot material so as to form a complete water tight joint. Where permitted by the Inspector two pipes may be put together and the joint made before placing the pipe in the trench. The trench shall be kept free from water while the joints are being made. Where wedgelock pipe is used jointing will be as speci- fied by the manufacturer. III -E -2. Joints in Cold Weather No joints shall be poured when pipe is at a temperature below freezing. When the air temperature is below 40F the part of the pipe to be joined shall be heated and a paint coat of G -K primer, or equal, applied both to spigot end and inside of bell before pipes are joined preparatory to pouring. III -E -3. Capping Branches Ends of sewer extensions and branches for house lat- erals and other connections shall be closed with a vitrified He stopper or plug which shall be held secure and water - ight by joint compound. II -F TESTING II -F -1. Cleaning and Flushing The interior of the sewer shall, as the work progresses, -e cleared of all dirt, surplus joint material and super - uous material of every description. No sewer main shall be finally joined to the City Sys - :m until it has been satisfactorily cleaned and flushed. II -F -2. Testing On a completion of any sewer or such portion of the same as may be directed, and before any connection has been made therewith, the sewer may be tested for leakage or infiltration of ground water on the order of the Inspec- tor. Contractors shall supply all facilities for making such tests. It is the intent of these specifications to have the sewer so constructed that the quantity of infiltration will be kept at a minimum. The allowable leakage shall not ex- ceed a rate of flow of 175 gallons per 24 hours per inch of diameter per 1,000 linear feet of sewer tested. Should any leaky or defective joints or defective construction be found they shall be promptly made good, and should any defective pipes or specials be discovered they shall be replaced with sound pipes or specials in a satisfactory manner and without cost to the City. 21 J K Ul L 2 Q 1 Z 0 v 'c =mot s 4 X t Q..
