Task 1: FURNISH AND INSTALL 3 OFFSHORE ANCHORS ON INTERMEDIATE ANCHOR FLOATS This work includes replacing 3 offshore/upstream anchors systems. The anchor system includes hardware, wire rope cable, chains, and lifting cable from the intermediate floats to the anchor, as well as the anchor. These items shall be replaced with like kind. The anchors may be refurbished and of equal or greater size, but shall not be smaller than indicated on the contract drawings. The existing lifting buoys shall be reused. This task also includes installing a new 10-foot length of lifting chain and new lifting buoy on the intermediate float end of the anchor chain to assist in future locates. Existing anchor and lifting buoy wire rope cable and chain shall be pulled taut to remove all slack and cut at the location where the chain goes into the silt. All wire rope cable and chain above silt-level shall be removed from the water and disposed of off site. At the Contractors discretion, they will be allowed the alternative of pulling the entire offshore anchor system out and removed off site. Task 2: i. SHORTEN FIRST SPAN OF WIRE ROPE CABLE This work includes shortening the first span of 2-inch diameter wire rope cable at the dam face connection. Approximately 10 to 20 feet of wire rope shall be removed. The trash shear boom shall have 6 degrees of sag, as indicated in the For Information Only drawings. The Contractor shall clean the end of the wire rope cable before re-installing the spelter socket. Zinc shall be used to fasten the spelter socket. It may be required to remove the first trash shear boom float and the gap debris float to allow enough slack to facilitate the socket potting process. Follow spelter socket manufacturer's recommendations for cleaning spelter socket and installing wire rope cable. The connection shall be able to develop the full capacity of the wire rope cable. The first trash shear boom float is currently temporarily tied off with synthetic (poly) rope to the dam face connection. The Contractor shall field verify the cut point on the main line to keep the first trash shear boom float in the same longitudinal position (measured from the face of the dam upstream to the first float) after reassembly. After realigning and installing the 2-inch wire rope cable, the Contractor shall move the connection on the first float for the debris rubber curtain upstream to remove excess slack. The Contractor shall leave enough slack to allow the debris float to move without binding up. ii. REMOVE EXISTING AND INSTALL NEW BACK STRAP This work includes removing the existing back strap wire rope cable, replacing it with new, and moving its dam face connection point to an existing pad eye and shackle on the dam approximately 10 feet south from the original tie back location. Replace the 1/8-inch neoprene insulator between the trash boom float and stainless steel connection on the first float. Neoprene insulation shall be 5 inches wide. Task 3 Option 1: FURNISH AND INSTALL 4 INSHORE ANCHORS ON INTERMEDIATE ANCHOR FLOATS If directed by the Government, this work includes replacing 4 inshore/downstream anchors systems. The anchor system includes hardware, wire rope cable, chains, and lifting cable from the intermediate floats to the anchor, as well as the anchor. These items shall be replaced with like kind. The anchors may be refurbished and of equal or greater size, but shall not be smaller than indicated on the contract drawings. The existing lifting buoys shall be reused. This task also includes installing a new 10-foot length of lifting chain and new lifting buoy on the intermediate float end of the anchor chain to assist in future locates. Existing anchor and lifting buoy wire rope cable and chain shall be pulled taut to remove all slack and cut at the location where the chain goes into the silt. All wire rope cable and chain above silt-level shall be removed from the water and disposed of off site. At the Contractors discretion, they will be allowed the alternative of pulling the entire offshore anchor system out and removed off site. Two intermediate floats are tied off to the south shore with synthetic rope. The Contractor shall remove the existing synthetic rope. Task 3 Option 2: FURNISH AND INSTALL INSHORE ANCHOR HARDWARE ON INTERMEDIATE ANCHOR FLOAT S - If directed by the Government, this work includes replacing the existing inshore/downstream anchor cable and associated hardware connections with new synthetic (poly) rope and hardware connections to existing shore anchors. The Contractor shall field verify the length and install the rope. Existing inshore anchor and lifting buoy wire rope cables and chains shall be pulled taut to remove all slack and cut at the location where the chain goes into the silt. All wire rope cable and chain above silt-level shall be removed from the water and disposed of off site. On each new poly rope connection, the Contractor shall install a new 20-foot length of slack chain to the poly rope. Additionally, the Contractor shall replace the wire rope cable and hardware from the intermediate float connecting eyes to the tow plate with like kind on the intermediate floats inshore side. The Contractor shall add a new lifting buoy on the bottom end of the tow plate to allow access to the wire rope cable connection to the intermediate floats from above. At the Contractors discretion, they will be allowed the alternative of pulling the entire offshore anchor system out and removed off site. Task 4: i. RE-INSTALL CHAIN FROM TRASH SHEAR BOOM FLOATS TO THE 2-INCH MAIN LINE (OPTIONAL) - If directed by the Government, this work includes re-installing chains running from the trash boom floats to the 2-inch main line that have extra shackles in the assembly. For each chain, the Contractor shall remove the upper locking plate, lengthen the chain, remove the extra shackles, and re-assemble. There are three (3) known assemblies that require work, all within the first span. They are located on Float 2 upstream chain, Float 4 downstream chain, and Float 5 downstream chain. It is possible that up to 15 float chains will require reinstallation. The Contractor shall begin at the dam face and move upstream, replacing the chains as needed, until they either 1) re-install 15 chains or 2) reach the end of the trash shear boom structure. ii. INSPECT BOAT ACCESS AND REPLACE WIRE ROPE CABLES (OPTIONAL) If directed by the Government, this work includes inspection of the boat access and replacement of the wire rope cables from the frame to the floats. The Contractor shall inspect the entire steel frame and the two (2) floats, looking for signs of corrosion and damage to steel parts. The Contractor shall also inspect the 2-inch diameter wire rope cable ends and connectors to the steel frame, looking for signs of corrosion, section loss, or damage to the wire rope cables and sockets. Additionally, the Contractor shall inspect the wood 2 x 6's to see if any are missing and to ensure all fasteners are secure. The Contractor shall provide a report and dive video (in DVD format). iii. INSPECT 2-INCH MAIN LINE ON ENTIRE TRASH SHEAR BOOM (OPTIONAL) If directed by the Government, this work includes inspection of the 2-inch main line (wire rope cable) along the entire length of the trash shear boom. The Contractor shall look for missing shackles, loose pins, missing cotter pins or fasteners, corrosion, wear, and/or damage on all connection points between the trash boom floats and 2-inch main line wire rope cable. Any cotter pins or fasteners discovered missing shall be replaced with Government-furnished property (GFP) during the inspection. The GFP property will be large-diameter stainless steel welding rod that shall be used in place of the cotter pins and it shall be bent after installation. It is anticipated that 15 cotter pins will require replacement at miscellaneous points along the entire length of the boom. The Contractor shall provide a report and dive video (in DVD format). GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS i. GALVANIZED COATINGS - Zinc coatings shall be applied in a manner and of a thickness and quality conforming to ASTM A 123/A 123M. Where zinc coatings are destroyed by cutting, welding, grinding, or other causes, the affected areas shall be regalvanized. Coatings shall be regalvanized to the thickness and quality specified for the original zinc coating. Coatings shall be repaired with a suitable low-melting zinc base alloy in accordance with ASTM A 780. The use of zinc-rich paint will not be allowed. ii. WIRE ROPE - Wire rope shall be size as shown, extra improved plow steel (EIPS), right regular lay (RRL), and galvanized. Wire rope shall be pre-stretched in accordance with FS RR-W-410 by subjecting it to three (3) cycles at 40 percent of its nominal strength. The 40 percent loads shall be held for five (5) minutes with 5 percent loads and shall have a 5 minute delay between cycles. iii. AS-BUILT DRAWINGS As-built drawings shall be required for the trash shear boom, specifically the main 2inch diameter wire rope cable length between spans, anchor weights, and anchor GPS locations. iv. SYNTHETIC ROPE - Shall be 1-1/4inch diameter, 12-strand synthetic rope, AlliedSignal Spectra Fiber, Puget Sound Rope Plasma 12 Strand, or approved equal, with the following salient features: Minimum Tensile Strength: 165,000 lbs (Breaking Strength) Specific Gravity: 0.98 Melting Point: 248 degrees F Critical Temperature: 150 degrees F Elongation at Break: 4 to 5 percent Fiber Water Absorption: 0 percent Both ends of the line shall have a rope thimble fitting. Thimble shall be rated at the rope strength. v. ANCHORS Offshore/upstream anchors shall be positioned 15 degrees from right angles to the trash shear boom line. An anchor shall be set 5 to 10 feet (or whatever distance experience dictates) further out than the designated anchor point, and along the anchor cable line. The anchors shall then be dragged downstream at right angles to the trash shear boom line; their final positions to develop maximum holding power. After the offshore anchors are set, a minimum 10-ton load shall be gradually applied by a surface vessel or from the shore to test the holding capacity of each anchor. Inshore/downstream anchor chain and cable lengths are approximate and actual lengths may have to be adjusted in the field depending on the actual distance to the shore anchors to develop maximum anchor holding resistance. However, no intermediate anchor shall be closer to the boom than the horizontal distance, minus the 10-foot plus or minus allowance. Offshore anchors shall, in addition, stay within the 20-foot adjusting chain length.
