BACKGROUND Previously, the 2010 WSDOT /APWA Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction was adopted by City of Tukwila Ordinance No. 2284. A new ordinance has been prepared and adopted every two years concurrent with the WSDOT update schedule. The 2012 edition of the Standard Specifications has been published by WSDOT /APWA with minor technical changes from the 2010 edition. Examples of some of the revisions are attached. City staff is currently revising and updating our construction contract boilerplate documents and General Special Provisions (GSP's) accordingly. Local agencies must adopt the 2012 Standard Specifications for use in all federally funded projects advertised on or after April 2, 2012. DISCUSSION An ordinance has been drafted to adopt the 2012 edition as well as anv future updated editions of the Standard Specifications, General Special Provisions and Construction Contract Boilerplate documents. This ordinance will also repeal the previous Ordinance No. 2284 as well as eliminate the need to adopt a new ordinance every two vears. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to approve the ordinance adopting the all subsequent editions or amendments to the WSDOT Standard Specifications and consider this item at the March 12, 2012 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent March 19, 2012 Regular Meeting.

Previous Amendments that are not revised in this package are still in effect. Amendments to the Standard Specifications take precedence over the Standard Specifications in accordance with Section 1 -04.2. The following is a brief description of the latest revisions, with an explanation of why each change was made. The actual provisions should be reviewed in depth to become completely knowledgeable of the full extent of the revisions. These amendments are available at the following location: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Design/ProjectDev/Specifications DIVISION 1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Section 1- 07.5(3) State Department of Ecology This amendment brings our specification into compliance with the new General Construction Stormwater Permit (GCSP) that took effect January 1, 2011. The change to this section was to include prohibited discharges. Section 1- 09.2(5) Measurement The amendment corrects this sections existing amendment by making it clear that under weighing scales must be fixed immediately and Contractor will not be compensated for any loss due to under weighing. DIVISION 3 Production From Ouarry and Pit Sites and Stockpiling Section 3- 01.4(4) Gravel Base This amendment revises the section to remove reference to Stabilometer (R- Value) from specifications and testing. The R -Value testing is not being employed by WSDOT to perform a useful function in these applications. DIVISION 4 Bases Section 4 -02.4 Measurement This amendment revises the section to remove reference to Stabilometer (R- Value) from specifications and testing. The R -Value testing is not being employed by WSDOT to perform a useful function in these applications. DIVISION 5 SURFACE TREATMENTS AND PAVEMENTS Section 5- 01.3(6) Dowel Bar Retrofit Updates needed to specification for dowel bar retrofit per a review of specification from Jt Northwest Chapter of the American Cone. Pavement Association and WSDOT Concrete Pavement Team. Ausut 1, 2011 Page I of 6 MJG:mjg New Amendments to the 2010 Standard Specifications Effective August 1, 2011 Section 5- 02.3(3) Application of Asphalt Emulsion and Aggregate This amendment removes the gradation of 318 to #10 from the standard specifications. Only one Region has been using the gradation for BST and they are moving away from its use as it acts poorly. Section 5- 04.3(5)E Pavement Repair This is a change to an existing amendment. The previous amendment had a minimum width of 42- inches for any pavement repair area. This amendment changes that width to 40- inches per WAPA whom stated that 40- inches was a better width for their planing machines. Sections: 5- 04.3(7)AI, 5- 04.3(7)A2, and 5- 04.3(7)A3 Section 5- 04.3(7) is amended to addresses changes to be made to HMA mix designs process. WSDOT no longer does HMA mix design verification, but do determine the anti strip requirements for each HMA mix design. Sections: 5- 04.3(7)AI— General, 5- 04.3(10)A- General, 5- 04.3(10)B4 -Test Results and 5- 04.3(11)D -Lots and Sublot Changes in these amendments clarify when a new mix design may be required due to changes to the percentage of material from a stockpile, static roller usage, HMA rejection and proposal for approval, and other minor editorial changes. Section 5- 05.3(4)A Acceptance of Portland Cement Concrete Pavement Updates in statistical and non statisticscal acceptance of concrete based upon a review of specification by Jt Northwest Chapter of the American Cone. Pavement Association and WSDOT Concrete Pavement Team. Section 5- 05.3(11) Finishing Changes to an existing amendment on the areas where finishing cement cone. Maybe longitudinal tining or texturing with a comb. DIVISION 6 STRUCTURES Section 6 -01.13 Architectural Features This amendment deletes this section and changes the title to Vacant. This was done because we never define architectural features and there are a lot of characteristics of concrete that affect color (aggregate, fly ash, cement qty and other none of which are controlled by this section. Section 6 -01.14 Premolded Joint Filler This amendment changes Section 6 -01.14 to delete the ASTM reference and replace it with a direct reference to Section 9- 04.1(2). Section 6- 02.3(5)E Point of Acceptance This amendment adds the term "bridge approach slabs" to those items where determination of concrete properties will be made at the point of placement. Ausut 1, 2011 Page 2 of 6 MJG:mjg 20 New Amendments to the 2010 Standard Specifications Effective August 1, 2011 Section 6- 02.3(17)K Concrete Forms on Steel Spans This amendment requires the Contractor to design bridge deck form systems to prevent rotation of the steel girder. Section 6- 02.3(17)N Removal of Falsework and Forms This amendment repaces the existing amendment done in January 4, 2010. The new amendment clarifies the previous amendment with specifics on the types of fors that can be removed and other formatting changes to make the table easier to read. Section 6- 02.3(25)G Protection of Exposed Reinforcement Since 1984, WSDOT has required that all steel reinforcing bars extending from prestressed concrete girders be painted with a zinc rich primer paint upon removal of the girder from its casting bed. The requirement is based on experience during the Olympia Freeway construction projects beginning in the early 1980's where surface corrosion of unprotected extended steel reinforcing bars stained the surface of the girder webs exposed to public view. The attached revision adjusts the requirement for protecting extended steel reinforcing bars by referencing Section 6- 02.3(24)B, which allows the Engineer to require painting of the bars if they are to be exposed for a length of time deemed excessive for unprotected exposure. The attached revision also clarifies that extended prestressing reinforcement is to be painted in all cases. Section 6- 02.3(25)I Fabrication Tolerances This revision to the specified horizontal tolerance for placement of lifting loops brings the Standard Specification into conformance with the revised placement tolerances specified in the design criteria of WSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Manual 5.6.3C Section 6- 02.3(25)M- Shipping The current specification dates back to an August 2007 Amendment requiring the girder bunk locations be as shown in the Plans based on design in accordance with WSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Manual 5.6.3D. The PNW/PCI fabricators requested some flexibility be provided. This revision adds a restriction on the minimum dimension from the end of girder to the bunk location that is consistent with current WSDOT design criteria. Sections 6- 02.3(26)A, 6- 02.3(26)B, 6- 02.3(26)C, 6- 02.3(26)D and 6- 02.3(26)G Section 6- 02.3(26) was extensively revised in August 2001. These provisions have been surpassed by more recent design code changes implemented by AASHTO. After a comprehensive review by Bridge and Structures Office these sections are revised to bring specification and WSDOT practices regarding post- tensioning, into conformance with current AASHTO design and construction codes and with industry practice. Sections: 6 -02.4 Measurement and 6 -02.5 Payment Amendment to 6 -02.4 was done to specify that the computed weight of steel includes mechanical splices, based on the weight of the splice as specified in the manufacturer's catalog cut for the specific item. Item 2 is also revised to clarify that splices specified as Ausut 1, 2011 Page 3 of 6 MJG:mjg 21 New Amendments to the 2010 Standard Specifications Effective August 1, 2011 "optional" are to be furnished without extra allowance the same as for other splices not shown in the Plans. Amendment to 6 -02.5 is revised to specify that splicing is included in the steel reinforcing bar bid item. Also, the bid item names are revised to add a fill -in blank at the end of the name to bring them into conformance with the Standard Item table naming convention. Section 6- 03.3(7)A Erection Methods This amendment removes the requirement for steel fabricators to review and approve the Contractors erection plan, since steel fabricators and erection are completely separate operations. Section 6- 03.3(39) Swinging the Span Erection Methods This amendment allows the placement of bridge deck forms prior to swinging the girders provided uniformly distributed weight of forms is less than or equal to 5 pounds per square foot. Section 6 -05.5 Payment This amendment was done to include furnishing steel reinforcing bar in the bid item "Cast -in -Place Concrete Test Piles Ambiguity in the existing specification has led to confusion and change orders to provide extra payment for furnishing reinforcing steel for this item. Section 6- 07.3(9)I Application of Field Coating When Section 6 -07 was revised in August 2009, the requirement for preparing uncoated surfaces prior to applying field primer was inadvertently left out of the specification. This revision closes the gap in the specification by inserting into Section 6- 07.3(9)I the missing requirement to prepare all uncoated surfaces, including bolts, nuts, washers and splice plates, upon completion of erection work in accordance with Section 6- 07.3(9)F Section 6- 13.3(2)A Design Calculation Content Requirements This amendment revises an earlier amendment. Due to an FHWA requirement that wall designs conform to AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification, the WSDOT design approach for structural earth walls is changing. As a part of this revised design approach WSDOT will be responsible for specifying the length of soil reinforcement. This revision removes ambiguity regarding the required length of soil reinforcement in Item No. 7. Section 6 -13.5 Payment This amendment adds the term, `copings' as being incidental to the unit contract price for "Structural Earth Wall This was done because more projects are incorporating sensitive aesthetic ornamentation into various structure elements. Section 6- 17.3(7) Installing Permanent Ground Anchors The existing amendment to this section is Deleted as it was in conflict with sixth paragraph of the section which allowed installation of anchors in a wet or dry hole. Ausut 1, 2011 Page 4 of 6 MJG:mjg 22 New Amendments to the 2010 Standard Specifications Effective August 1, 2011 DIVISION 7 Drainage Structures. Storm Sewers. Sanitary Sewers. Water Mains, and Conduits Section 7 -09 Water Mains Three amendments to sections; 7- 09.3(24)A, 7- 09.3(24)N and 7 -09.5 to bring these sections into compliance with the new General Construction Stormwater Permit (GCSP) that took effect January 1, 2011. The change to these sections were to address dechlorination of water before discharge. DIVISION 8 MISCELLANEOUS CONSTRUCTION Section 8- 01.3(1)A Submittals This amendment rearranges content in the Section for better flow of content, and it makes it clear that that modified TESC Plans have to meet the requirements of Chapter 6, Section 6 -2 of the current edition of the WSDOT Highway Runoff Manual. Section 8- 01.3(1)B Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) Lead This amendment brings this section into compliance with the new General Construction Stormwater Permit (GCSP) that took effect January 1, 2011. The change supplements the duties of the ECL for inspection of BMPs and discharge points. Section 8- 21.3(9)F Foundations This amendment changes item number 3, in the tenth paragraph, to state that unless the Plans call out a different class of cement concrete, commercial grade cement concrete will be used for roadside sign structures. Sections:. 8-22.4 Measurement and 8 -22.5 Payment These amendments add the new Pavement Marking item, Junction Box Markings. DIVISION 9 MATERIALS Section 9- 03.4(2) Grading and Quality This amendment removes the column titled `3/8" No. 10' from the Table of this Section. This gradation has been linked to poorly performing BST pavements. Sections: 9 -03.10 Aggregates for Gravel Base, 9- 03.12(1)B Class B and 9 -03.20 Test Methods for Aggregates These amendment revise the sections to remove reference to Stabilometer (R- Value) from specifications and testing. The R -Value testing is not being employed by WSDOT to perform a useful function in these applications Section 9- 05.12(1) Solid Wall PVC Culvert Pipe, Solid Wall PVC Storm Sewer Pipe, and Solid Wall PVC Sanitary Sewer Pipe This amendment changes 115 psi pipe stiffness to 46 psi in this Section. The higher strength pipe is hard to find and expensive and after further review the 46 psi pipe stiffness would be sufficient for WSDOT needs. Ausut 1, 2011 Page 5 of 6 MJG:mjg 23 New Amendments to the 2010 Standard Specifications Effective August 1, 2011 Section 9- 06.5(4) Anchor Bolts This amendment is revised to include reference to AASHTO M 292, Grade H. The Bridge Office has been receiving request to approve this material and concurs with the assertion that the material is equivalent to the specified AASHTO M 291 /ASTM A 563 Grade DH material if overtapping, lubrication and rotational testing required in Section 9- 06.5(3) is satisfied. Section 9 -07.2 Deformed Steel Bars This amendment updates the specification to assure that ASTM A 706 Grade 60 is used for bridge and structures elements. Sections: 9 -23.9 _Fly Ash and 9 -23.10 Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag The new amendments detail the quality control, tests and acceptance methods, for Fly Ash and Blast Furnace Slag. These changes have been discussed with WACA which did not have any concerns. These new amendments formalizes the quality control program for fly ash and slag that has been voluntary to date and parallels the program that we have been performing on Portland cement. Sections: 9- 29.1(4)A Rigid PVC Conduit and 9- 29.1(4)C HDPE Conduit These amendments delete erroneous specifications in section 9- 29.1(4)A as ASTM F 2136 does not apply to PVC conduit, and adds additional clarification to section 9- 29.1(4)C concerning the requirements for HDPE Conduit that it be listed by the Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTLs) program. Note: a previous amendment changed the section number of 9- 29.1(4)B HDPE Conduit in the Book to section number 9- 29.1(4)C HDPE Conduit. Sections 9- 34.4(1) Geosynthetic Material Approval, 9- 33.4(3) Acceptance Samples and 9- 33.4(4) Acceptance by Certificate of Compliance These amendments to geotextile for underground were made to reduce the quantity of material for testing from 600 sy to 100 sy because for the typical underdrain, this is equivalent to 600 linear feet of drain. Considering that such underdrains could be used behind retaining walls to keep water out of the backfill, or at road edge to keep water out of the base /subgrade, this is a lot of length of such features that potentially could fail if the geotextile is inadequate to promote the drainage needed.

UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO MARCH 12 COW FOR DISCUSSION. B. Ordinance: 2012 WSDOT Standard Specifications Staff is seeking Council approval for an ordinance adopting the 2012 WSDOT SUi ndard Specifications. The ordinance is needed to adopt the Standard Specifications for any Federal Aid Projects so that the contract format is the same across all jurisdictions. The mandated contract specifications are only in Division 1 of the WSDOT Standard Specifications, whereas Divisions 2 through 9 can be modified to meet our specific Cit-, requirements. There are only minor technical changes to the Division 1 contract boilerplates. The Committee was concerned that there were not "substantial' changes and requested a synopsis of the 2012 updates if available. The draft ordinance will repeal Ordinance No. 2284. After further discussion. staff will make an inquiry to the City Attorney's office to see if the draft ordinance could be changed to reflect acceptance of all fixture /subsequent editions to make this process more efficient. Again. the Committee and /or Council Nyould be informed of anv significant changes made in these editions (i.e. such as changes made in 2014). UNANIMOUS APPROVAL.
