proven costs that will accrue as a result of late completion during the period in excess of the
prescribed date of completion.
The Owner may deduct any amount under this paragraph from any monies that may be due

SCREEN WORKS GATE REPLACEMENT
C1.
GENERAL
1.1
Project Scope
.1
The objective of this contract is to remove and replace the existing slide gates that are in
front of the screens at the Screen Works Building at the Summerland Balancing
Reservoir, located approximately 400m south west of the Summerland WTP.
The two existing 36 inch Armtech gates are operated by means of a hydraulic ram that
sits above the gate at main floor level within the Screen Works building. The hydraulic
rams are to be removed and replaced with electric valve actuators. Electrical connection
is required to supply power to the new valve actuator.
.2
Optional pricing is requested to remove and replace the two existing 36 inch wafer
butterfly valves that exist in the structure after the screens.
.3
The Contract includes the following components:
i)
ii)
iii)
iv)
v)
vi)
1.2
1.3
general requirements, mobilization/demobilization;
isolation of working area for each slide gate so as not to impact water flow and
quality to WTP;
removal of existing slide gates and supply and installation of new gates;
Disconnection and removal of existing hydraulically operated valve actuator;
Electrical connections and commissioning of slide gate and valve actuators ;
Optional: Isolation of 36” butterfly valves, removal and replacement;
Project Schedule
.1
Begin the work at the earliest possible date respecting signing and administrative
requirements;
.2
Provide additional information for materials if they vary from the design standard;
.3
Begin shop drawing process and obtain manufacturer’s shop drawings for gate, actuator,
and for butterfly valve (if optional item is included);
Project Constraints
.1
Confined space and WCB requirements to access slide gates and butterfly valve
chambers must be met. A entry plan must be prepared by the Contractor for entering the
work area. Input will be able to be provided to the successful bidder by Summerland and
Agua to assist in this regard;
.2
Water supply to the Water Treatment Plant must be maintained through adjacent process
train while the one supply train is being worked on. All workers and equipment that will be
underwater must be clean, disinfected prior to entering the raw water. The WTP can be
scheduled run off of the WTP clearwell with the pumps off while divers enter to work on
the slide gates.
.3
Water from this site is conveyed to the head of the WTP. For the pumps at the head of
the WTP to function, a flow of 240 L/s is required;
.4
Work must be done during the low water demand times of year, i.e. after October 15
annually when Summerland irrigation connections have been turned off;

PROJECT SUMMARY

SCREEN WORKS GATE REPLACEMENT
.5
1.4
The butterfly valve replacement work, if awarded within the same contract, must occur
after the slide gates are installed.
Gate Installation Options
.1
There are three known acceptable options available to the contractor for slide gate
installation;
.1
Option 1 - Bolt Gate onto existing thimble. The existing gates are mounted on a steel
thimble that is cast into the concrete wall. Divers would at the earliest stage of the
project have to enter the screen works and review the condition of the thimble and bolts
and measure the bolt pattern so that a matching slot arrangement can be fabricated for
the slide gates. One bolt would also have to be removed to confirm bolt diameter and
length.
.2
Option 2 - Oversize gate mount to encompass the existing thimble and cast a 25mm
thick grout pad between the gate mounting and the wall. The grout pad would have to
be poured underwater. A system to align the gate underwater and then enclose the
grout would have to be developed;
.3
Option 3 – Oversize gate to mount over the existing thimble. A 15mm thick neoprene
gasket would be installed against the concrete wall and the tolerance for the wall cannot
exceed a deviation of more than 1/16” along the gate mounting surface.

Handwheel Drive: The actuator shall be furnished with a handwheel located in a 90
degree plane from the actuator output drive, with a maximum pull requirement of 60 pounds
of valve travel loads. An external manual declutch lever shall be included to place the
actuator in manual mode. The lever shall not require more than a 10 pound force to engage
even when the valve has been tightly seated. The lever is to be padlockable in either
