firm or person (other than a bona fide employee working solely for the LPA or the ENGINEER) to solicit or secure
this AGREEMENT,
(b) has not agreed, as an express or implied condition for obtaining this AGREEMENT, to employ or retain the services
of any firm or person in connection with carrying out the AGREEMENT or
(c) has not paid, or agreed to pay any firm, organization or person (other than a bona fide employee working solely for
the LPA or the ENGINEER) any fee, contribution, donation or consideration of any kind for, or in connection with,

(1) Notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession or use of a
controlled substance, including cannabis, is prohibited in the grantee's or contractor's workplace.
(2) Specifying actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such prohibition.
(3) Notifying the employee that, as a condition of employment on such contract or grant, the employee will:
(a) abide by the terms of the statement; and
(b) notify the employer of any criminal drug statue conviction for a violation occurring int he workplace
no later than (5) days after such conviction.
(b) Establishing a drug free awareness program to inform employees about:
(1) The dangers of drug abuse in the workplace;
(2) The grantee's or contractor's policy of maintain a drug free workplace;
(3) Any available drug counseling, rehabilitation and employee assistance program; and
Page 4 of 10 BLR 05530 (Rev. 10/24/25)
(4) The penalties that may be imposed upon an employee for drug violations.
(c) Providing a copy of the statement required by subparagraph (a) to each employee engaged in the performance of the
contract or grant and to post the statement in a prominent place in the workplace.
(d) Notifying the contracting, or granting agency within ten (10) days after receiving notice under part (b) of paragraph
(3) of subsection (a) above from an employee or otherwise, receiving actual notice of such conviction.
(e) Imposing a sanction on, or requiring the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation
program.
(9 Assisting employees in selecting a course of action in the event drug counseling, treatment and rehabilitation is
required and indicating that a trained referral team is in place.
Making a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug free workplace through implementation of the Drug Free Workplace Act,
the ENGINEER and LPA agree to meet the PROJECT SCHEDULE outlined in EXHIBIT B. Time is of the essence on this project
and the ENGINEER'S ability to meet the PROJECT SCHEDULE will be a factor in the LPA selecting the ENGINEER for future
project. The ENGINEER will submit progress reports with each invoice showing work that was completed during the last reporting
period and work they expect to accomplish during the following period.
11. Due to the physical location of the project, certain work classifications may be subject to the Prevailing Wage Act (820 ILCS
130/0.01 etseq.).

Item Description No. Unit Estimated
Amount
f initial Planning Phase f: overview,of Work Requirements
Develop a general approach to the impact driving of bridge support piles in the vicinity of a 38-in
prestressed concrete cylinder water main to ensure ground vibration-induced strains imparted to the
pipeline are safe and maintain the integrity of the line.. The following will be addressed In this Phase:
1. Considerations and recommendations for pre-conditioning the sub-surface soil along the driving
alignment to mitigate vibrations and lateral soil displacements prior to driving,
2. A description of the of ground strain impacts on the strains imparted to the pipeline walls, the
approach taken to calculate resulting wall stresses and how these stresses can be controlled to maintain
a safe factor of safety considering the combined operating and vibratory wall stresses compared to the
pipe material allowable yield stress limit.
3. A general approach to monitoring ground vibrations and resulting strains during pile driving during a
recommend test phase, and
4. An instrumentation plan for pile driving at the closest planned distance to the water main of 5 ft.
Deliverable- A written report of recommendations and an approach to Phase 2
e $ 300. 00 $ 180000 , .
2 Phase 2: Implementation ofWork ,
The work to be performed during Phase 2 includes the following:
i. Calculations performed comparing the pipe allowable yield stress with the combined stresses acting
on the pipeline walls during pile driving. The allowable stress analysis will depend on the available
pipeline as-built details and material properties for steel and concrete acting in compression and tension.
A preliminary factor of safety will be provided after test pile driving using surface mounted geophones
and a final factor of safety after driving 5-ft from the pipeline based on at-depth seismograph vibration
measurements.
2. A plan set for seismic monitoring specifications during
(a) initial test driving away from the water main to develop a site-specific attenuation model of vibrations
based on distance and depth of driving and specific to the make and model, rated energy and stroke
length of the equipment selected by the General Contractor for driving, and
(b) pile driving at a stand-off distance of 5 ft to the pipeline.
Specifications will include details for deploying the monitoring system, drilling and grouting the borehole
transducers, seismograph operating parameters, data analysis and reporting.
REQUIREMENTS: Item 1 requires sufficient pipeline as-built details of the concrete prestressing,
placement, design and yield strength of the steel wire-concrete system, operating and surge pressures
and other details yet to be determined.
