Specifications include, but are not limited to: Construct an onsite sewage system that meets the location and construction specifications of the Virginia Sewage Handling and Disposal Regulations (12VAC5-610-10 et seq., the Regulations) and the Regulations for Alternative Onsite Sewage Systems (12VAC5-613-10 et seq.). Construct the above Alternative onsite sewage disposal system in compliance with the Isle of Wight County Health Department Construction Permit 093-STS-15530 at 7402 Fire Tower Road, Zuni, VA 23898 in the location shown on the permit. The permit may contain additional conditions, notes, and information needed to construct the onsite sewage system. Septic Pump-out Requirements: This project is currently on a pumpout schedule to prevent effluent from surfacing on the ground, whereas the tank is pumped thrice every two weeks. All bids shall include the cost to pump out the contents of the existing septic tank by a properly licensed sewage hauler, as necessary for a minimum of 2 weeks prior installation of the system repair to prevent raw sewage from backup into the house or erupting on to the ground surface. Invoicing should only include the costs for the actual septic pumpout performed. If installation is not completed within 45 days of Notice to Proceed being issued, all bids shall include the cost to pump out the contents of the existing septic tank by a properly licensed sewage hauler on the thrice per two weeks pumpout schedule. In order to be reimbursed for pumpouts, a pumpout log must be provided at invoicing that contains the day the system was pumped out, the gallons pumped and the name of the septic hauler used. Bids should provide a cost per pumpout, and estimate of the number of pumpouts to be completed, and a cost-breakdown per additional pump out. If additional pump outs are needed beyond what is in the bid preauthorization will need to occur to allow for a change order for additional, justifiable pump outs. If the permit requires work within or under the existing drainfield (as indicated in the Permit) additional monitoring and pumping of the existing septic tank may be required in order to allow for the drying out of the drainfield. In these cases, for two weeks prior to the installation or repair of the onsite sewage system the effluent level of the septic tank must be monitored so that it does not discharge into the pump chamber or dispersal field. The contents of the existing septic tank shall be pumped by a properly licensed sewage hauler to prevent sewage from entering the drainfield for two weeks prior to installation. Tree Removal and Site Clearing: A pre-bid site visit is recommended to determine what if any tree removal or site clearing that may need to occur. Per the above referenced Permit, remove any trees and wood debris as described in the permit and haul away wood and debris unless notified otherwise. Costs of tree removal and site clearing should be included in initial bids. Any additional site clearing, or tree removal required during installation must be submitted in writing to and approved by VDH in writing including an additional cost estimate. Any personal property items that will prohibit the contractor from accessing the site or installation of the new system is the responsibility of the homeowner to remove and should not be included in the bid. Provide, or subcontract with a licensed plumber and electrician to provide plumbing and electrical required to convey the wastewater from the house to the onsite sewage system as required by the Regulations and the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. This includes obtaining or assuring that the owner obtains all permits and inspections necessary by the local building authority in compliance with the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code.
