Section 01010 SUMMARY OF WORK

Page 1 of 2 T16-292 - Falcon Ridge Water Intake Project

Agua Consulting Inc.

1. GENERAL

.1 The Regional District of Central Okanagan (RDCO) owns and operates the Falcon Ridge Water utility. The utility provides water to 55 single family residences above and on the north side of Mission Creek. The source of water for the utility is a shallow ground water well that is influenced by flow in Mission Creek. To develop a more reliable water supply, the RDCO has entered into agreement with Black Mountain Irrigation District to access water from upper storage reservoirs in upper Mission Creek, and is preparing to build a direct creek intake along Mission Creek. The intake will supply water to the groundwater well and to the nearby groundwater infiltration gallery.

.2 The current design is to withdraw water from Mission Creek and either convey it either directly to the well head or to the infiltration gallery near the well head. If raw water quality in the creek is poor, the valves be can be shut and water supply would be by means of the local groundwater infiltration gallery.

.3 This contract includes the installation of approximately 50m of 200mm diameter water service line from the creek to a proposed diversion vault, the supply and installation of a concrete creek intake and fish screen assembly, the supply and installation of a concrete diversion vault with associated control valves, and the conduit for connection of these devices to the computer control system of the RDCO;

.4 Although the constructed works deal with raw water supply, the system is part of a waterworks system and all construction works with wetted surfaces must conform to potable drinking water standards, i.e. NSF 61 or AWWA standards for product coatings.

.5 Road access upgrades are to be included in this work. The road access involves raising of approximately 100m of 3.5m wide road by 0.5metres, compacting and gravel resurfacing with 50mm thickness of 25mm diameter crushed gravel.

1.1 Project Constraints

.1 Access to work along Mission Creek is constrained by the instream fisheries work window for Mission Creek which runs from August 7 to October 15 annually. All work within the creek riparian area must take place prior to October 15 annually.

.2 A Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) has been retained by the RDCO as part of the consulting team to monitor sensitive work activity along the Mission Creek riparian area. See Environmental specification, Section 02300 for requirements.

.4 Substantially complete the work within the Mission Creek riparian area by the dates within the contract. Work on the intake to install the sluice gate, fish screen and trash rack may extend beyond the date, however the Environmental Monitor must be present for these installations;

.5 Delivery dates for the valve actuators and for the fish screens may extend beyond the allotted contract working time. Substantial completion will be dependent on fish screen installation and functional water flow to the wellhead and/or infiltration gallery. Total completion will be dependent on the installation of the electric valve actuators and gate valves.

.6 Connection and energizing of the electric actuators will be by the RDCO Electrical / Instrumentation staff.

.2 The actuators shall be suitable for use on a nominal 115 V,1 phase, 60 Hz power supply and are to incorporate motor, integral reversing starter, local control facilities and terminals for remote control and indication connections housed within a weather insulated enclosure.

2. PRODUCTS

2.1 Actuator Size

.1 The actuator shall be sized to guarantee valve closure at the specified differential pressure and temperature. The safety margin of motor power available for seating and unseating the valve shall be sufficient to ensure torque switch trip at maximum valve torque with the supply voltage 10% below nominal. For linear operating valves, the operating speed shall be such as to give valve closing and opening at approximately 10-12 inches per minute unless otherwise stated in the data sheet.

2.2 Environment

.1 Actuators shall be suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The actuator shall be capable of functioning in an ambient temperature ranging from -33°C (-22°F) to 70°C (140°F), up to 100% relative humidity. For extreme cold temperatures below 0°C, space heater will be provided within electrical control panel by owner.

2.3 Enclosure

.1 Site area is within flood plain of major creek.

It shall be a low inertia high torque design, class F insulated with a class B temperature rise giving a time rating of 15 minutes at 40°C (104°F) at an average load of at least 33% of maximum valve torque. Temperature shall be limited by 2 thermostats embedded in the motor end windings and integrated into its control;

.3 Electrical and mechanical disconnection of the motor should be possible without draining the lubricant from the actuator gear case;




2.5 Motor Protection

.1 Protection shall be provided for the motor as follows:

• Stall - the motor shall be de-energized within 8 seconds in the event of a stall when attempting to unseat a jammed valve.

• Over temperature - thermostat will cause tripping of the motor. Auto-reset on cooling • Single phasing - lost phase protection. • Direction – phase rotation correction.

2.6 Gearing

.1 The actuator gearing shall be totally enclosed in an oil-filled gearcase suitable for operation at any angle. Grease lubrication is not permissible. All drive gearing and components must be of metal construction. For rising spindle valves the output shaft shall be hollow to accept a rising stem, and incorporate thrust bearings of the ball or roller type at the base of the actuator. The design should be such as to permit the opening of the gearcase for inspection or disassembled without releasing the stem thrust or taking the valve out of service.

2.7 Hand Operation

.1 A hand wheel shall be provided for emergency operation, engaged when the motor is declutched by a lever or similar means, the drive being restored to electrical operation automatically by starting the motor. The hand wheel or selection lever shall not move on restoration of motor drive. Provision shall be made for the hand/auto selection lever to be locked in both hand and auto positions. It should be possible to select hand operation while the actuator is running or start the actuator motor while the hand/auto selection lever is locked in hand without damage to the drive train;

.2 Clockwise operation of the hand wheel shall give closing movement of the valve unless otherwise stated in the data sheet. For linear valve types the actuator hand wheel drive must be mechanically independent of the motor drive and should be such as to permit valve operation in a reasonable time with a manual force not exceeding 400N through stroke and 800N for seating/unseating of the valve;

2.8 Drive Interface

.1 The actuator shall be furnished with a drive bushing easily detachable for machining to suit the valve stem or gearbox input shaft. The drive bush shall be positioned in a detachable base of the actuator. Thrust bearings shall be sealed for life and the base shall be capable of withstanding five times the rated thrust of the actuator;
