The distance shall be measured from edge to edge. The laying of water pipes and sanitary sewers shall be in separate trenches with undisturbed earth between them. In cases where it is not practical to maintain a 10 foot (3.0 m) separation, the contractor shall notify the Engineer, and the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods. Equivalent protection may require the sanitary sewer construction with one of the following additional protective features: concrete encasement, vacuum sewers, or jointless pipe such as fused HDPE or cured-in- place pipe liner.

B. Gravity Sewer Lines Crossing Water Lines: When a water pipe and a sanitary sewer cross and the sewer is 2 feet (0.6 m) or more (clear space) below the water pipe, no special requirements or limitations are provided herein. At all other crossings, the contractor shall notify the Engineer, and Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods. Equivalent protection may require the sanitary sewer to be constructed of one of the following materials (or approved equal) and pressure tested to assure water tightness pursuant to the most recent revision of KDHE’s Minimum Standards of Design of Water Pollution Control Facilities:

1. Ductile iron pipe conforming to ASTM A 536 or ANSI/AWWA C151/A21.51 with minimum thickness class 50, and gasketed, push on, or mechanical joints in conformance with ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10 or ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11. 2. PVC pipe conforming to ASTM D3034 with minimum wall thickness of SDR41, ASTM F679, or ASTM F794, with gasketed push-on joints in conformance with ASTM D3212. 3. Reinforced concrete pipe conforming to ASTM C76 with gasketed joints in conformance with ASTM C361 or ASTM C443.

Joints in the sewer pipe shall be located as far as practical from the intersected water main. Joints in the Water pipe shall be located as far as practical from the intersected Sewer main.

Where a water main is laid across or through an area where there is an existing sanitary sewer that is not constructed of one of the above specified materials and is 2 ft. (0.6 m) or less below the water pipe, the existing sewer shall be encased in concrete with a minimum thickness of 6 inches (15.2 cm) for a 10 ft. (3.0 m) distance on each side of the crossing or the crossed section of sewer replaced to meet the above specified construction requirements. The above requirements shall also apply where a water main must cross under an existing sanitary sewer. In cases where it is not practical to maintain a 2 foot (0.6 m) separation, the contractor shall notify the Engineer, and the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods.

C. Pressure Sewer Lines: When sewer force mains run parallel to water lines, the separation distance shall be as far as practical, but at least a 10 foot (3.0 m) horizontal separation shall be maintained. There shall be at least a 2 foot (0.6m) vertical separation at crossings with water main crossing above the sewer force main. In cases where it is not practical to maintain the required vertical or horizontal separation distance between a water line and a sanitary sewer force main, the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods.

PUBLIC WATER UTILITY DISTRIBUTION PIPING 33 11 13 - 8 BG Consultants, Inc. City of Hutchinson 171377H | Hutchinson Zoo Education Building

D. Sewer Connections: There are to be no physical connections between any parts of the potable water system with building sewers, sanitary sewers, or wastewater treatment facilities by means of which it would be possible for sewage, even under exceptional circumstances, to reach the wells, storage reservoirs, or distribution systems.

E. Sewer Manholes: No water pipe shall pass through or come in contact with any part of a sewer manhole. Required horizontal separation distances between water mains and manholes are equivalent to those for water mains and gravity sanitary sewers.

F. Storm Sewers: The separation distance between a storm sewer (which is not a combined storm/sanitary sewer) and a water main should be based on geotechnical considerations. Required separation distances between water mains and combined storm/sanitary sewers are equivalent to those for water mains and gravity sanitary sewers.

G. Drains: Underground drains from fire hydrants or valve pits should not be directly connected to sanitary or storm drains.

H. Other Pollution Sources: It is of the utmost importance that potable water lines be protected from any source of pollution. The following shall pertain to instances where septic tanks, absorption fields, waste stabilization ponds, feedlots, or other sources of pollution are encountered.

1. A minimum distance of 25 feet shall be maintained between all potable water lines and all septic tanks or waste stabilization ponds. 2. Under no circumstances shall a water line extend through a septic tank absorption field or feedlot. All water lines shall be located a minimum of 25 feet from the furthest known extent of any sewage contamination. Under no condition will it be considered that encasement of the water main through an area of real or potential pollution would provided the protection needed to the water supply.

The distance shall be measured from edge to edge. The laying of water pipes and sanitary sewers shall be in separate trenches with undisturbed earth between them. In cases where it is not practical to maintain a 10 foot (3.0 m) separation, the engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods. Equivalent protection may require the sanitary sewer construction with one of the following additional protective features: concrete encasement, vacuum sewers, or jointless pipe such as fused HDPE or cured-in-place pipe liner.

B. Gravity Sewer Lines Crossing Water Lines: When a water pipe and a sanitary sewer cross and the sewer is 2 feet (0.6 m) or more (clear space) below the water pipe, no special requirements or limitations are provided herein. At all other crossings, the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods. Equivalent protection may require the sanitary sewer to be constructed of one of the following materials (or approved equal) and pressure tested to assure water tightness pursuant to the most recent revision of KDHE’s Minimum Standards of Design of Water Pollution Control Facilities:

1. Ductile iron pipe conforming to ASTM A 536 or ANSI/AWWA C151/A21.51 with minimum thickness class 50, and gasketed, push on, or mechanical joints in conformance with ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10 or ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11. 2. PVC pipe conforming to ASTM D3034 with minimum wall thickness of SDR41, ASTM F679, or ASTM F794, with gasketed push-on joints in conformance with ASTM D3212. 3.

Joints in the sewer pipe shall be located as far as practical from the intersected water main. Joints in the Water pipe shall be located as far as practical from the intersected Sewer main.

Where a water main is laid across or through an area where there is an existing sanitary sewer that is not constructed of one of the above specified materials and is 2 ft. (0.6 m) or less below the water pipe, the existing sewer shall be encased in concrete with a minimum thickness of 6 inches (15.2 cm) for a 10 ft. (3.0 m) distance on each side of the crossing or the crossed section of sewer replaced to meet the above specified construction requirements. The above requirements shall also apply where a water main must cross under an existing sanitary sewer. In cases where it is not practical to maintain a 2 foot (0.6 m) separation, the contractor shall notify the Engineer, and the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods.

PUBLIC SANITARY UTILITY PIPING 33 31 13 - 8 BG Consultants, Inc. City of Hutchinson 171377H | Hutchinson Zoo Education Building

C. Pressure Sewer Lines: When sewer force mains run parallel to water lines, the separation distance shall be as far as practical, but at least a 10 foot (3.0 m) horizontal separation shall be maintained. There shall be at least a 2 foot (0.6m) vertical separation at crossings with water main crossing above the sewer force main. In cases where it is not practical to maintain the required vertical or horizontal separation distance between a water line and a sanitary sewer force main, the Engineer will consult with KDHE to consider equivalent protection by other methods.

D. Sewer Connections: There are to be no physical connections between any parts of the potable water system with building sewers, sanitary sewers, or wastewater treatment facilities by means of which it would be possible for sewage, even under exceptional circumstances, to reach the wells, storage reservoirs, or distribution systems.

E. Sewer Manholes: No water pipe shall pass through or come in contact with any part of a sewer manhole.

F. Storm Sewers: The separation distance between a storm sewer (which is not a combined storm/sanitary sewer) and a water main should be based on geotechnical considerations. Required separation distances between water mains and combined storm/sanitary sewers are equivalent to those for water mains and gravity sanitary sewers.

G. Drains: Underground drains from fire hydrants or valve pits should not be directly connected to sanitary or storm drains.

H. Other Pollution Sources: It is of the utmost importance that potable water lines be protected from any source of pollution. The following shall pertain to instances where septic tanks, absorption fields, waste stabilization ponds, feedlots, or other sources of pollution are encountered.

1. A minimum distance of 25 feet shall be maintained between all potable water lines and all septic tanks or waste stabilization ponds. 2. Under no circumstances shall a water line extend through a septic tank absorption field or feedlot. All water lines shall be located a minimum of 25 feet from the furthest known extent of any sewage contamination. Under no condition will it be considered that encasement of the water main through an area of real or potential pollution would provided the protection needed to the water supply.

Resident Project Representative and/or Engineer shall be present for acceptance testing and approval. 3. Contractor shall furnish all facilities required for performance of the air leakage test, including but not limited to piping connections, pipe plugs with taps, test pumping equipments, pressure gauges, bulkheads and regulators to avoid over pressurization. The equipment and gauges shall meet the minimum specifications set forth in ASTM F-1417 Standard Test Method for Installation Acceptance of Plastic Sewer Lines Using Low-Pressure Air. The air equipment shall consist of necessary valves and pressure gauges to control an oil-free air source and the rate at which air flows into the test section to enable monitoring of the air pressure within the test section. 4. Gauge certification from the manufacturer and calibration data shall be required for all pressure test gauges, a copy of which will be made available to the Engineer at the time the air tests are performed. 5. Test each reach of pipe between manholes after completion of pipe and appurtenance installation and trench backfill. 6. Plug ends of sewer line at manholes and cap or plug all lateral connections to withstand internal pressure. One plug shall have two taps for connection equipment. After connecting air control equipment to the air hose, begin increasing the air supply within the pipe section, monitoring the air pressure so that the internal pressure does not exceed 6.0 psig. 7. After the internal pressure reaches 4.0 psig, throttle the air supply to maintain between 4.0 and 3.5 psig for at least two minutes in order to reach equilibrium between air temperature and pipe walls. During this time, check all plugs for leaks. If leaks are found, bleed off air, tighten plugs and begin increasing the air supply again. 8. Air testing shall take place by the Time-Pressure Drop Method. Decrease the pressure to 3.5 psig and begin timing to determine the time required to achieve a pressure drop from 3.5 to 2.5 psig. If the time, in seconds, to achieve the 1.0 psig pressure drop is greater than that shown in the following table, the line is presumed free of defects. For pipe sizes and lengths other than those shown in the table below, refer to ASTM F1417.

9. If the air test fails to meet the requirements, repair the defects and retest the line. All constructed sewer lines shall pass the low pressure air test prior to acceptance. 10. In areas where ground water is known to exist, install a one-half inch diameter capped pipe nipple, approximately 10" long, through manhole wall on top of one of the sewer lines entering the manhole. This shall be done at the time the sewer line is installed. Immediately prior to the performance of the line acceptance test, ground water level shall be determined by removing pipe cap, blowing air through pipe nipple into the ground so as to clear it, and then connecting a clear plastic tube to pipe nipple. The hose shall be held vertically and a measurement of height in feet of water shall be taken after the water stops rising in the plastic tube. The height in feet shall be divided by 2.3 to establish the pounds of pressure that will be added to all readings.

D. Deflection Test for Flexible and Semi-RigidSewer Pipe:

1. Prior to final acceptance, the Contractor shall perform a diametrical deflection test on all flexible and semi-rigid pipe (such as PVC, HDPE plastic pipe, and truss pipe), for both open cut and trenchless construction. Tests shall be conducted between manholes for structures. Deflection testing of a segment of sewer shall occur at least thirty (30) days after the pipe has been installed and completely backfilled. 2. A mandrel with a diameter equal to 95 percent of the inside diameter of the pipe to be tested shall be used. The mandrel shall be cylindrical in shape and constructed with nine evenly spaced arms or prongs. Mandrels with fewer arms will be rejected as not sufficiently accurate. The mandrel shall be approved by the Engineer prior to testing pipe of each given size. The Contractor shall furnish proving rings for verifying the mandrel diameter. Contact length between points of contact on the mandrel arm shall be as follows:

Nominal Pipe Diameter Mandrel Length inches inches 8 8 10 10 12 10 15 12 18 15 3. The maximum allowable deflection shall be five (5) percent of the inside pipe diameter. Allowances for pipe wall thickness tolerances or ovality (from heat, shipping, poor production, etc.) shall not be deducted from the maximum allowable dimension of the mandrel, but shall be counted as part of the five (5) percent or lesser deflection allowance. 4. The mandrel shall be hand-pulled by the Contractor through all flexible sewer lines. Any section of sewer failing the diametrical deflection test shall be repaired or replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Owner, and retested.

3.15 PRESSURE PIPING ACCEPTANCE TESTING

A. All new sewer forcemains and pressure process piping will be subject to hydrostatic pressure testing under this subpart. Forcemains and pressure sewers shall be tested from the point of discharge to the isolation valves in the corresponding lift station(s). New segments of pipelines which will be connected to existing lines shall be pressure tested prior to connection.

B. Notification: Contractor shall notify Engineer at least 48 hours in advance of the scheduled time for testing. Resident Project Representative and/or Engineer shall be present for acceptance testing and approval.

C. Test Conditions:

1. Test procedure shall be according to AWWA C 600 Section 4.1 2. Unless otherwise specified, a test pressure of not less than 1.5 times the normal operating pressure (for the lowest point on the pipe line) but not less than 150 pounds per square inch (psi) or not more than the rated working pressure for the pipe shall be used for testing. 3. The hydrostatic test shall be conducted for a minimum 2-hour duration. Test pressure shall not vary by more than ±5 psi for the duration of the test.

D. Test Materials: The Contractor shall furnish all pumps, piping, labor, plugs, hose, riser pipe, gauges and other materials and services necessary to bring the piping up to the specified test pressure.

E. Pressurization: Buried pipe in the section to be tested shall be backfilled or center loaded with thrust blocks installed. Interior pipe supports and restraint systems shall be completely installed prior to testing. The section of pipe shall be isolated and slowly filled with water. Before applying the specified test pressure, air shall be expelled completely from the section of piping to be tested. If permanent air vents are not located at all high points, corporation cocks shall be installed at such points so that the air can be expelled as the line is filled with water. After all the air has been expelled, the corporation cocks shall be closed and the test pressure applied. At the conclusion of the pressure test, the corporation cocks shall be removed and plugged or left in place as directed by the Engineer. The specified test pressure (based on the elevation of the lowest point of the line or section under test and corrected to the elevation of the test gauge) shall be applied by means of a pump connected to the pipe. Valves shall no be operated in either the opening or closing direction at differential pressures above the rate pressure. The system will be allowed to stabilize at the test pressure before the leakage test is conducted.

F. Examination: All exposed pipe, fittings, valves, hydrants and joints shall be inspected for moisture during the test. All evidence of moisture appearing on the surface of the ground during the test shall be investigated by the Contractor by excavation where the pipe has been covered with backfill. Evidence of moisture indicates defective materials or installation and shall be repaired or replaced by the Contractor. The test shall be repeated until satisfactory results are obtained.

G. Allowable Leakage – Ductile Iron: Leakage shall be defined as the quantity of water that must be supplied into the newly laid pipe or any valved section thereof to maintain pressure within 5 psi of the specified test pressure after the pipe has been filled with water and the air has been expelled. Allowable leakage shall be according to the following equation, per AWWA C 600.

H. Allowable Leakage – PVC: Leakage shall be defined as the quantity of water that must be supplied into the newly laid pipe or any valved section thereof to maintain pressure within 5 psi of the specified test pressure after the pipe has been filled with water and the air has been expelled. Allowable leakage shall be according to the following equation, per AWWA C 605.

I. Acceptance of Installation: Acceptance shall be determined on the basis of allowable leakage. If any test of pipe section discloses leakage greater than that specified above, repairs or replacements shall be accomplished in accordance with the specifications. All visible leaks shall be repaired regardless of the amount of leakage. The pressure test shall be repeated after repairing leaks and other defective work until the pipeline installation conforms to specified requirements and is accepted by the Engineer.
