General Description of Work The awarded contractor shall be responsible for providing the cleaning of catch basins by the vacuum method. Upon completion of each job, catch basins must be free of debris to a degree that will ensure their efficient operation. Each basin shall be photo documented and the photo file submitted to the foreman daily. Such degree of cleanliness is to be reasonably determined by the highway foreman or their designee. The contractor may be re-called to re-clean any unsatisfactorily cleaned basin(s) without charge. The awarded contractor shall be responsible for the proper disposal of all materials collected during the cleaning process at a DEEP permitted waste disposal facility. Bid prices furnished on a per basin basis shall cover the disposition of materials at a DEEP permitted waste disposal facility. Workers/Workday a) The Contractor will supply at least one competent, faithful, skilled and experienced operator per vehicle to perform the required work. If at any time a town highway foreman (or their designee) shall notify the contractor that an assigned operator is apparently incompetent or unfaithful, such operator shall be discharged promptly and shall not be employed again on the job. b) The normal workday shall be 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding State granted holidays. c) No disruptive work (as indicated by the Town) shall be permitted before 7:00 a.m. or after 8:00 p.m. on a normal workday or on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays, except by permission of the Town. Permission requests shall be submitted to the Director of Public Works. Clean-up Upon completion of each catch basin, the contractor shall remove all materials, equipment and debris, and shall leave the area in a neat and orderly manner. Such efforts shall include ensuring that both the basin cover itself, and the area immediately surrounding the basin, are free of any debris to prevent reentry of such materials into the basin. List of Basins to be Cleaned A list of basins to be cleaned, with their locations, shall be supplied to the contractor by the highway foreman when the work is started, and the contractor cannot be paid for cleaning basins other than those designated. Each basin cleaned shall be photo documented and the photo file submitted to the foreman on a daily basis.
