Summary of the Scope of Work


Embankment repair at Conemaugh River Lake, in the vicinity of Sulphur Run in Blairsville, Pennsylvania. The proposed embankment repair would consist of excavation and disposal of failed materials and installation of a full-height stone buttress to support the existing embankment. Work in support of the repairs may require the contractor design and install temporary stabilization measures for excavations. The contractor would be required to remove and dispose of materials associated with a previous emergency stabilization effort; including steel plates, precast concrete blocks, geosynthic separators, pvc pipe, and compacted aggregate. Additionally, the contractor would be required to remove, stockpile and reuse aggregate from a stone berm placed during the emergency repair. The Contractor would remove debris associated with a 40 ft long section of an existing large diameter stone-arch culvert underlying the embankment that has failed. The contractor would replace the failed section of the culvert and stabilize 70 linear feet of culvert upstream of the failure. Stabilization efforts may include measures such as installation of a concrete footers and a steel liner. Additional work will include construction of a new headwall at the culvert outfall. Ancillary features of work may include streambank armoring with rip rap for approximately 70 feet downstream from the culvert outfall. Two small stone grade control structures would also be installed at the two minor headcuts observed just downstream of the outfall to prevent upstream progression that may affect buttress and culvert stability. The contractor will be responsible for design and implementation of diversion structures if work cannot be completed in the wet.
