844 - SLURRY GROUT the slurry grout based on the results of the comp ressive strength, unit weight tests, and visual inspection of the mixture placed on the project.
844.3CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
Pump the slurry grout into the structures to fill all the voids. Bulkhead each end of the structure to be filled. Provide a minimum of 2 vent pipes to monitor the pumping. If necessary to fill the structure, pump additional grout through the vent pipes. If filling voids under pavements and slabs on grade, place the slurry grout as shown on the Contract Documents. Observe the weather lim itations specified in DIVISION 400 when placing the slurry grout.
844.4MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
The Engineer will measure slurry grout by the cubic yard. Payment for "Slurry Grout" at the contract unit price is full compensation for the specified work. 845 - CLEANING EXISTING STRUCTURES AND UNDERDRAINS

CLEANING EXISTING STRUCTURES AND UNDERDRAINS
845.1DESCRIPTION
Clean the designated existing structures and underdrains as shown in the Contract Documents.
B I D I T E M S U N I T S Cleaning Existing Structures Lump Sum Cleaning Existing Underdrains Linear Foot
845.2MATERIALS - None specified.
845.3CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
Documents. Use hand, mechanical, pressu rized water or a combination of methods to expose all inside surfaces of the designated structures. Do not move the existing structure out of position or damage the structure. Correct structures moved out of position, and repair or replace structures damaged because of the Contractor’s operations. Dispose of the material removed from the structure. The Engineer may allow placement of suitable material on the embankment slopes adjacent to the structures. Grade the structure channel to provide drainage before cleaning the structure. Schedule the cleaning of the structures so that drainage is provided during the project construction operations. Maintain the cleaned structures until the project is accepted.
completing any extensions or replacements of outlet sections. The Engineer will observe the cleaning operations. Clean the underdrains using pressurized water. Use a cleaning unit consisting of a high-pressure pump (100 gallons per minute at 500 psi, minimum) connected to a hose (1 inch minimum) with a cleaning nozzle. Use a hose that is capable of traversing and cleaning up to 600 feet of underdrain. Use a cleaning nozzle similar to FIGURE 845- 1.

Do not damage the underdrains. Repair or replace underdrains damaged because of the Contractor’s operations.
845 - CLEANING EXISTING STRUCTURES AND UNDERDRAINS 800-111 c. Video Inspection of Cleaned Underdrains . In the presence of the Engin eer, perform a video inspection of all underdrains shown in the Contract Documents. For the video inspection, provide a video camera complying with the following requirements: high resolution, high sensitivity, waterproof and color; capable of negotiating the various angle fittings used in the edge drain system; with sufficient lighting to provide a true color picture of the entire periphery of the diameter of the pipe; and with attachments that will maintain the cam era’s position in the center of the pipe.
Provide a portable control unit of the video ca mera complying with the following requirements: capable of adjusting the iris, fo cus, and light level intensity; have a color monitor (8 inch minimum) to track the camera’s progress through the inspections; have 2 video input/output jacks for video recording, as well as tape playback verification through the built-in monitor; and have audio input to allow for dubbing of the video to incorporate comments as necessary.
Provide a video camera system complying with the following requirements: have sufficient cable/push rod to conduct inspections to a length of 500 feet, and a distance counter to monitor the length of the inspection; have a color video printer that will produce color pr ints of any observations of interest during the course of the inspection; and include a video recorder (minimum quality 4-head industrial grade VHS type) with audio dubbing, still frame and slow speed capabilities. Provide an experienced video technici an to operate the video camera system. Using the same equipment noted above, re-clean any underdrains found to still contain soils and not working as intended. Acceptance by the Engineer of the cl eaned underdrain will be based on ob servations made during the video inspection.
845.4MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
The Engineer will measure cleaning of the designated structures by the lump sum. The Engineer will measure cleaning of the designated underdrains by the linear foot. The Engineer will measure the length of hose and nozzle inserted into the underdrain. Payment for "Cleaning Existing Structures" and "Cleaning Existing Underdrains" at the contract unit prices is full compensation for the specified work.
