Memorandum


Date: Tuesday, February 14, 2006

Re: Unique Specifications Briefing I have put together a little message below that will outline some of the more unique specifications and details that the Village of Algonquin Public Works Departments uses. Please read this letter carefully as all of the text below will be enforced on site during inspections, occupancy and acceptance will be riding on these unique methods. Area 1 – Sanitary Structures

The Village of Algonquin has a very comprehensive plan on infiltration and inflow of its sanitary system. This program starts on paper and is proven in the field. We start with the details and specifications. The details call for a sealed joint system. This comprises of ez-stick, and Mac Wrap by Mar Mac Corp., (an 8” band tightened wrap at the structure joints). The key point of I & I is located at the structures chimney. The village details calls out for the WrapidSeal manhole encapsulation system by Canusa CPS. This is a heat shrink-wrap external chimney seal that captures the frame, rings, and cone section of the sanitary structure. The village also calls for structures to have rubber boots that tighten with stainless steel bands. Proper installment of the systems will ensure smooth sailing through the testing phase. Testing of sanitary mains includes the following: Air testing lines, mandrill testing after 30 day installation, televising 1 yr after installation, and vacuum testing the manholes. The vacuum test is a test that checks the chimney and joints of the manholes. Air is drawn out of the structure to create a vacuum, the vacuum is held at 10 inches of mercury. The test allows 1” of drop over a one-minute test.

Area 2 – Storm Sewer Structures

The Village of Algonquin follows the EPA NPDES Ph. II regulations with regards to storm water discharge (Dec 8th, 1999). You will see that the details call out for chimney seals on storm structures. These are the same systems used in the sanitary sewers. The WrapidSeal manhole encapsulation system by Canusa has proven to be quite effective and will be installed on every storm manhole, inlet, and catch basin. This includes all flat-top structures, which should have a 4” ring cast at the plant Adjustment rings for any structure that is in a paved surface shall have the top ring be GNR recycled rubber infra-riser ring (available through East Jordan). The rings are lightweight and great shock absorbers. The rings have proven to be great for maintenance and have ensured longer life for the concrete rings that support the frame. Please pay attention to the frame and grate specs. We are not accepting Neenah equals – East Jordan has shown great workmanship in the village logo, they coat there castings, and have moved ahead of the pack when stamping for NPDES educational frame “Dump no Waste Drains to Natural Waterway. They also supply the sinusoidal & vane grates that we specify.

Area 3 – Watermain Systems

The water system must be installed and tested as listed in the specifications, it is very important that the guidelines be followed. Long delays can occur when this procedure is run incorrectly. The water department has outlined in the specifications the process to achieve approval. Some of the key points include: A chlorination map shall be submitted & approved prior to any corporation taps are made. A passing pressure test form must be processed. Once a passing form has been issued, the village water operators will allow scheduling of chlorination testing,

which requires a zero count for two consecutive days. All fittings are required the use of Meg-a-lug brand restraining glands.

Area 4 – Streets

The Village of Algonquin has recently made great changes in the streets division of public works. With asphalt pavements changing to the new superpave designs, it was felt that our specifications were a bit outdated. The new specifications and details show a couple of interesting points. The village road system is made up of mostly local streets, and collectors. We have therefore gone to a N 30 IL 9.5 L surface & N 30 IL 19.0 L binder mix in almost 95% of all situations. This mix is a tighter, thicker mix with better weather shielding. We have also gone to an interesting detail as far as putting in binder well ahead of the surface. Subdivisions in the past have laid curb and gutter down and installed binder before home building and at final close out of homes installed the surface. This usually meant a lot of abuse was done to the curb line by the heavy traffic jumping the lip created between the top of the binder and the edge of the curb. Our new detail shows how the binder will be ramped to the top of the curb flag. At time of surface installation, an edge grind will be needed, but the cost of curb replacement far out weights this amount.

Area 5 – Erosion Control As outlined in the subdivision ordinance, and Kane County Storm Water Ordinance, erosion control is not to be taken lightly. Major penalties can occur when this subject is not put as a priority. The keys to a successful erosion control plan incorporate: Silt fence installation and maintenance, construction entrance installation and maintenance, and slope stabilization. Silt fence will be required to encompass the entire site (regardless of grade). The fence will need to have a double row in high erosion areas (4 to 1 slopes or greater) and delicate wetland or preservation areas (creeks, ponds, forests). The one area that causes the most trouble is that of the construction entrance. The mud and debris that is dragged around the site is to be removed by this entrance, and when the entrance is in good shape it usual does work. However, many times the entrance is left unattended and rendered unusable soon after the project has started, and thus tracking of debris onto village streets occurs. Numerous sites have been closed down when debris is tracked onto the village right of way. Lastly, is the issue of slope stabilization. Mass grading usually takes care of the detention facilities, and black dirt stockpile. These two areas make up the most common places slope erosion occurs. The village outlines that all stockpiles that are to remain on site longer than 1 month shall be protected. The stockpiles shall have a row of silt fence installed at the base and a temporary seed shall be applied. Detention facilities are to be seeded according to spec. Immediately following the grading operation. A riser pipe shall be installed and any accumulated sediment will be removed at time of final acceptance.

I hope that this letter informs you a little better on the unique specifications and details of the Village of Algonquin. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at the information listed in the upper right hand corner of this letter.

Memorandum

To: Contractor, Engineers, & Developers


Re: Landscape Preservation Specification The following specifications are for use in limiting damage caused to Village owned trees and shrubs during construction projects in the Village of Algonquin. • The contractor shall exercise the utmost care and consideration to prevent any damage and/or harm to

Village owned trees and shrubs. • Construction equipment shall not be utilized in the parkways or right of ways unless it is a direct

necessity of construction, as approved in the pre-construction meeting. In these instances invasion of the turf areas and root zones of trees will be kept to an absolute minimum. Construction fence may be required for protection of specific areas. In all other instances, no equipment shall be utilized, parked or stored on Village property (including rights-of-way and parkways) without prior written approval from the Director of Public Works.

• Construction material, excavation spoils or any other objects shall not be placed and/or stored on

Village parkways. • It shall not be permissible to attach, in any way, shape or form, signs, ropes, tape, wire or any other

material to any Village owned trees or shrubs. • The contractor shall instruct all workers to utilize extreme care, at all times, to prevent damage or

injury to tree limbs and branches, particularly when operating equipment. This type of damage is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. In the event that damage occurs to any tree limb and/or branch or in the event that a limb or branch requires removal, the contractor shall immediately contact the Village’s Construction Manager for corrective actions.

• Prior to any construction activity, all parkway trees possessing canopies whose drip lines are situated

within 3 feet of an area intended for excavation shall be root pruned. The root pruning must be completed by a company specializing in the procedure, using a root pruner and shall not include the use of a backhoe or other equipment.

• Prior to the start of root pruning, the contractor shall contact the Village’s Construction Manager to

obtain written approval of the equipment and method of root pruning to be utilized. Additionally, the contractor is required to notify the Village’s Construction Manager 48 hours prior to beginning the procedures to allow scheduling of on site observation of the operation by the Parks and Forestry Superintendent, or his designate.

• Root pruning cuts shall be made to a distance of 4 feet beyond the tree’s drip line on each end. All

root pruning cuts shall be made to a depth of 18 to 24 inches and be placed 6 to 12 inches closer to the tree than the construction limit. This allows for root regeneration, within the 6 to 12 inch area, during the construction period. Trenches formed by this procedure shall be backfilled the same day utilizing the soil removed during the operation and the backfill material lightly tamped down. (Root pruning cuts made at the construction limit is not permitted because the cut surfaces of the roots remain exposed to the air, which causes dieback from that point.)

• Construction activity and storage of materials or excavation spoils are not permitted within the 6 to 12

inch area of any root pruning cut. Failure to comply will require the contractor to install protective fencing along the root pruning cuts throughout the project.

• Protective fencing may be required in areas possessing trees that are growing in a close proximity to an

area of construction activity as determined by the Construction Manager with the input of the Village Parks and Forestry Superintendent. When utilized, this fencing serves as a protective zone and intrusion, alteration, or removal shall constitute a violation, which may result in a work stoppage until the issue is rectified.

• Excavation trenches, used for the forming and pouring of new curbs, shall not serve as an area for the

disposal of garbage, construction materials, concrete truck wash outs and/or any other debris. The contractor shall be responsible for the policing of the trench to prevent this problem from occurring and shall be accountable for the removal of all undesirable material.

• The contractor shall make every effort to backfill along the backside of the curb line as soon as

possible after new curbs are poured. At the same time, root pruning cuts should be inspected and backfilled in areas where settling has occurred. Backfill material shall be good quality topsoil. Topsoil should be properly installed to prevent future settling (this may require light compaction). The use of excavated spoil material is not permitted as it commonly contains high percentages of subsoil and heavy clay, which are generally unsuitable for root growth.

• On-site inspection by the Village’s Construction Manager will be made during the course of the project

to determine contractor compliance with specifications and ordinances.

Memorandum

To: Contractors within the Village of Algonquin

CC: Streets Dept – Sign Shop


Re: Handling of Existing Village Signage Contractor, The Village of Algonquin has a village roadway signage protection program. This program involves the preservation of right of way signage. Many times work done by contractors involves connection or addition of utilities or improvements in public rights of way. With this work comes a certain amount of disturbance of property, and it is inherent that no matter how careful you are things can go wrong. Thus, in an effort to preserve village signage, we ask that you follow the procedure listed below.

1. If signage is on the project, and is near any excavation, grading, or construction of any sort, and is in danger of being

damaged, please notify the Village Sign Shop for removal. (Allow a weeks notice for all mass removals (5+ signs) 2. Mark the signs with a piece of flagging tape around the post. (do not spray paint sign or post), 3. The Village Sign Shop will remove all of the village signage, and store in a safe place on site or at the village yard. 4. Any temporary signage necessary to maintain safe traffic flow must be supplied by the contractor for duration of the

project. 5. Do not reinstall any village signage that was removed or placed in a temporary condition. 6. At completion of the project notify the Village of Algonquin Sign Shop for installation of permanent signage. 7. At that time an assessment of the signs will be made, any damaged signs will be replaced and the associated costs

will be withheld from the contracts final payout) 8. Once permanent signage is installed remove any contractor owned temporary signage.

It is important that you do not move, remove, or destroy any signage on the project. Each location is documented and each sign is accounted for in the village database. Failure to follow the above mentioned procedure will result in a fine in the amount of the time & material to replace the signage. The general contractor will be held responsible for all signage issues. Acceptance of the project will not occur until signage has been installed. Questions regarding signage and other sign procedures can be sent to: Village of Algonquin Public Works Department or Call: Vince Kilcullen @ 847-658-2754 x 404 Streets Division c/o Sign Shop Attn: Vince Kilcullen 110 Meyer Dr. Algonquin, IL 60102

Re: Mailbox Removal Letter Sample

SAMPLE OF MAILBOX REMOVAL LETTER FOR ROAD RECONSTRUCTION Tuesday, May 04, 2004 Village of Algonquin Residents Located in the Subject Project Area Re: Mailbox Removals Dear Resident This letter will explain to you the process of receiving mail for the duration of the road project that is occurring in your neighborhood. Please follow these guidelines closely; failure to do so may prevent you from receiving mail. The Village will be starting the road work portion of the project in the next couple of weeks. On previous projects this phase of construction has caused the relocation of mailboxes to become an issue. The contractor will need the space to move material and install new grade at the current mailbox location. History has shown us that if the resident removes the mailbox the opportunity for damaging the boxes disappears, and therefore interruption to mail service is avoided. We have developed this letter to help in the process of the removal, relocation, and reinstallation of mailboxes in the project area.

1. It will be the responsibility of the homeowner to remove and store the existing mailbox by (insert date) 2. The village will be installing group mailboxes on (insert gang box location). See the map on the back for exact

location. 3. Mail will be delivered to this location starting on (insert date) and will continue for the duration of the project. 4. You will receive a letter near the completion of the project of the deadline to reinstall your mailbox.

The Village of Algonquin appreciates your cooperation and patience. The Village is excited about this project and what it will bring to your neighborhood. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me that the information listed below.

Re: Sanitary Testing Guidelines The following is a list of testing required for all sanitary installations. A passing result of all of the following is required prior to any acceptance / occupancy is granted. Cost of equipment purchase or lease, materials, and labor necessary to conduct all testing is incidental to and shall be included in cost bid for sanitary construction.

1. Air / Pressure Testing: All sanitary sewer gravity mains are required to pass a low-pressure air test.

a. A pressure equal to 4 PSIG shall be introduced into the main via an air compressor.

b. The pressure shall not drop more than ½ PSIG over the course of time determined by the testing criteria chart.

2. Forcemain testing will use a hydro static test that is equal to 1.5 times the designed operation pressure.

a. The procedure shall be the same as used for testing a Village of Algonquin water system (See Const. Testing of Watermain Guidelines)

b. A passing test is achieved when the pressure drops less than 5 psi during the 2 hour test or when the calculated recovery is met.

3. Mandrill / Deflection Testing: The entire length of the installed PVC main line pipe shall be deflection tested for acceptance with an approved go-no-go testing device. Ductile Iron Sewer Safe Pipe is not required to be mandrill / deflected tested.

4. All sanitary sewer manholes shall be vacuum tested as directed by the Village Engineer or Utilities Superintendent.

a. Sanitary sewer manholes shall be tested for leakage immediately after installation.

b. Lift holes shall be plugged with a non-shrink grout. c. Inlet and outlet pipes at manhole shall be plugged, taking care to securely brace

plug to avoid its being drawn into manhole. d. Vacuum test equipment shall be placed at inside of top of the frame and seal

inflated to 40 psi to create a seal between vacuum base and structure. e. A vacuum of 10 inches of mercury shall be drawn and vacuum pump shut - off. f. With valves closed, time shall be measured for vacuum to drop to 9 inches. g. Manhole integrity is acceptable if the time exceeds 60 seconds for a 48-inch

diameter manhole, 75 seconds for a 60-inch diameter manhole, and 90 seconds for a 72-inch diameter manhole.

h. If manhole fails initial test, necessary repairs shall be made with a non - shrink grout or other acceptable and approved materials.

i. Retesting shall proceed until a satisfactory test is obtained. j. Contractor shall repair all visible defective joints or leaks in manhole even though

b. Allowable leakage in gallons per hour for pipe line shall not be greater than that determined by the formula:

SD(sq. Rt. P) L = ---------------- 133,200 Note: L = Testing allowance (makeup water) in gallons per hour S = Length of pipe tested, in feet D = Nominal diameter of the pipe in inches P = Average test pressure during leakage (test in pound per square inch) The Project Manager shall provide an estimate of the gallons of water used to flush and test the newly installed water main. The Project Manager shall also provide certification documenting the results of the pressure test.

STEP #3 CHLORINATION No sooner than 48 hours after the newly installed system has passed the pressure testing procedure as described above shall the contractor schedule disinfection and sample collecting with the Chief Water Operator.

1. Prior to disinfection of the water main, the water main shall be flushed to remove any foreign substances that may be present in the water main and must have passed the pressure test.

2. After the water main is chlorinated, the main shall remain unused for a minimum of 24 hours and have a free chlorine residual of not less than 10 mg/L.

3. After the 24 hour detention time, the water main may be flushed of all the super chlorinated water and a maximum chlorine residual of 2 mg/L is achieved in the water main.

4. Two consecutive samples are taken 24 hours apart from each of the sample locations. These samples must be free of any bacteriological contamination. The samples are collected by a designated water department employee who will also deliver the samples to a laboratory that is certified by the Illinois Department of Public Health to conduct Bacteriological sample screening. Satisfactory disinfection is demonstrated when two consecutive water samples, collected at least twenty-four hours apart, indicate no bacterial contamination.

5. If unsatisfactory results are obtained with the samples; then the water main shall be re-chlorinated, flushed and resample until two consecutive satisfactory results are obtained from each sample point.

6. After two consecutive satisfactory results are obtained from each sample point, the water main shall be placed into service by the Water Department. The Water Department will then notify the Project Manager of the satisfactory results & active main. The Project Manager in turn will notify the contractor of the passing results.

7. The amount of water used during the flushing and chlorination process shall be measured and given to the Utilities Superintendent.

8. After all sample sites have two consecutive satisfactory results, the IEPA permit will be signed by the Chief Water Operator. The Chief Water Operator will forward the signed IEPA permit and laboratory reports to the Assistant Public Works Director.

9. The Assistant Public Works Director will complete the IEPA permit and process accordingly. 10. Billing of water use during testing will be sent to Developer. 11. Watermain valves and hydrants will be re-inspected during project punch listing. 12. END

soft and yielding materials will be marked and documented with dimensions, depth of removal, and type of backfill required.

b. A proof roll on the base of the road shall be performed. This test will verify that all sub-base issues are resolved and the base is ready to except asphalt.

2. Curb Testing a. The first test beyond that of the sub-base test mentioned in the proof roll section above, is

the visual test done on the stone base and form work. The curb shall be walked to ensure all sub-base issues have been resolved and that all forms are true to the plans and details. Dowel bars and expansion must be present at the end of every days pour and where the new curb ties into existing curb work

b. During the pour of the curb, a series of cylinders must be made for strength testing. The village requires a cylinder be produced at a minimum of one a day, but no less than 1 cylinder per 50 yds. The cylinders must be poured in accordance to good testing standards, which eliminates all voids and segregation of material. The cylinders must be clearly labeled and include the project name, address or station number, and date. The cylinders are to be broken on the 7th, 14th, and 28th day. There shall also be random slump & temperature tests, on various loads through out the day.

3. Asphalt Testing a. The binder and surface course shall be installed as per village standards and details. All

mix designs shall be approved Illinois Dept. of Transportation designs. The mix design and plant certification shall be submitted for Village of Algonquin for verification & approval.

b. Mix temperatures shall be taken at random intervals. Temperatures shall be noted by address or station and time of day. These temperatures shall be taken at the rear of the asphalt hauler. Asphalt temperature at the time of breakdown should be no less than 250 degrees, and at time of finish rolling no less than 150 degrees.

c. The last test is that of nuclear density testing. Testing shall occur randomly along the lift at no more than 500 ft. intervals. Density of 95% of max theoretical density as determined by ILL Modified AASHTO T 209. No test shall fall below 91%. The roller pattern shall be noted by number of passes and total length. . The amplitude and frequency of the breakdown roller shall also be included in the notes. The roller shall not exceed 10 mph at any time

Public Works Department Memorandum

To: Algonquin Resident From: Algonquin Public Works Department RE: Establishment of Restored Turf Area If you are in receipt of this notice you have recently had Village initiated maintenance work done at or near your parcel. We appreciate your patience during the completion of this work and now ask for your assistance in reestablishing the turf in the area(s) disturbed by this activity. The area(s) is/are topsoil with grass seed incorporated and should be apparent. The/these area(s) may or may not have an amendment such as straw, wood fiber mulch (sprayed on, green), or erosion matting. It is common that the topsoil product in this area contain a certain amount of small stones. This should not adversely affect the restoration although you may feel free to remove these if you wish. Should the restoration contain rocks, asphalt, concrete or any other foreign debris, please contact our office. It is important that we have your commitment to establish the turf grass by watering consistently. This will provide an end product that is equal to or better than what existed prior to the maintenance/improvement. Below are some basic guidelines as to how to best insure the success of your restoration. We thank you in advance for participation in this final and crucial step of the project. Establishing your turf should take approximately four to six weeks. During this time watering should remain consistent. If young shoots are allowed to dry to the point of death the area must be re-seeded and the process must start all over. The goal is to keep the soil constantly moist. This can be achieved by watering the area with one to two inches of water each day (An easy way to measure this is to put out a cookie tray or similar product in the area you are watering. When the tray is full, you have watered to whatever depth the product is; for example a full one inch tray equals one inch of water). If you are unable to water each day a very thorough watering should occur at least every other day. Your turf will respond best when watered in the early morning. Mowing of the area should not occur until the shoots are at least four to six inches tall. A light starter fertilizer (6-24-24) may be used if desired, but use caution as the wrong type of fertilizer will destroy young turf. It is our recommendation that fertilization and weed control be postponed for at least one full growing season. Any initial weeds that may occur are typically residual crop seeds contained in the new topsoil. The first mowing will usually prevent their return. Within four to six weeks you should have a product that requires maintenance similar to that of previously established turf. It is our desire to keep this correspondence as simple as possible in order to convey the necessary information without becoming too technical. If you have any specific questions relative to the restoration work or properly establishing your stand of turf please feel free to contact us at (847) 658-2754.

VILLAGE OF ALGONQUIN

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT TO: Algonquin Residents and Businesses with New Parkway Trees FROM: Department of Public Works RE: Care of New Trees The Village of Algonquin has recently provided a new tree in the parkway of your home or business. The tree has been provided and installed with care and we now ask that you assist us in the maintenance of this tree so that it will beautify your home and the Village for years to come. Please take the following steps in tree care until the tree becomes established in about five years: ∗ Provide about 25 gallons of water to the entire root zone of the tree at each watering. Watering is

desirable once every 7 to 10 days. Allow the water to run slowly, almost trickle, during the watering process. A single application of the desired weekly amount of water is preferred as opposed to numerous applications of smaller amounts. This will allow water to penetrate to the deepest root structures. The “saucer” of dirt around the tree’s main stem is intended to retain the water near the base. If trees are planted in the springtime, or thereafter, watering should commence right away and should continue, once a week, throughout the summer and fall, until the tree has lost most of its leaves. Watering frequency and amounts may vary depending on precipitation received during the week. Please note: Over-watering of a newly planted tree can be as harmful as under-watering.

∗ DO NOT FERTILIZE THE NEW TREES. Trees will not require additional nourishment for two years.

At that time, tree food stakes (available at any garden center) can be driven into the ground at the drip line of the tree about every two years. Four food stakes, spaced evenly, should be fine. The drip line is the imaginary point at which rainwater would drip from the outermost leaves and branches. Over-fertilization will burn young undeveloped root growth and retard or kill the tree.

∗ An organic mulch watering “saucer” has been provided and should not be removed. The purpose of

organic mulching is to regulate soil temperatures, retain needed moisture for root regeneration, as well as provide valuable nutrients to the soil. We also request your cooperation with abstaining from planting flowers, ground cover, shrubs or any other plants around the tree. This will prevent injury to the tree's root zone and aid in survival.

∗ Newly planted trees require only minor corrective pruning during the first 2 to 3 years of growth. Should

you notice broken or dying branches, or experience irregular growth problems, please contact the Public Works Department.

Following these simple steps should result in the development of a healthy and beautiful tree that you can enjoy for years. If you should have any further questions concerning care of your new tree, please feel free to call the Public Works Department for information at 658-2754
