Air Release and Vacuum Break Valves shall conform strictly to the requirements of American Works Association Standard for Air-Release, Air Vacuum,and Combination Air Valves for Water Works Service, C512, latest revision, including changes as and additions specifically stated in these specifications. 720.02-CONSTRUCTION & DESIGN The air release & vacuum break valve shall be of the compact single chamber design with solid cylindrical H.O.P.E.control floats housed in a tubular stainless steel body with epoxy powder coated cast iron or steel ends secured by means of stainless steel tie rods. The valve shall have an integral'Anti-Shock'Orifice mechanism which shall operate automatically to limit transient pressure rise or shock induced by closure to 2 x valve rated working pressure. The intake orifice area shall be equal to the nominal size of the valve i.e.,a 6"valve shall have a 6" intake orifice. Large orifice sealing shall be affected by the flat face of the control float seating against a nitrite rubber'0' ring housed in a dovetail groove circumferentially surrounding the orifice. Discharge of pressurized air shall be controlled by the seating & unseating of a small orifice nozzle on a natural rubber seal affixed into the control float. The nozzle shall have a flat seating land surrounding the orifice so that the damage to the rubber seal is prevented. The valve construction shall be proportioned with regard to material strength characteristics,so that deformation, leaking or damage of any kind does not occur by submission to twice the designed working pressure. The valve design shall incorporate an over pressure safety feature that will fail without an explosive effect, such as is normally the case when highly compressed air is released suddenly. The feature shall consist of easily replaceable components such as gaskets, seals or the like. Connection to the valve inlet shall be facilitated by a screwed NPT male end (1" & 2" only) or a flanged end conforming to ANSI B16. 1 Class 125 and Class 250 or ANSI B16.5 Class 300 Standards. Flanged ends shall be supplied with the requisite number of stainless steel or mild steel screwed studs inserted for alignment to the specified standard. Nuts, washers,or jointing gaskets shall be provided by the Contractor. A f'" NPT Test Bleed Cock shall be provided for each air release and vacuum break valve. 720.03-OPERATION A. Prior to the ingress of liquid into the valve chamber. as when the pipeline is being filled, valves shall vent through the large orifice when water approach velocities are relative to a transient pressure rise, on valve closure, of< 2 x valve rated pressure. At higher water approach velocities,which have a potential to induce transient pressure rises>2 x valve rated pressure on valve closure, the valve shall automatically discharge air through the Anti Shock Orifice and reduce water approach velocity, so that on closure a maximum transient pressure rise of < 2 x valve rated pressure is realized. 6%9 720 - 1 of 2 `il:Hht IMF'._R[ LI.II i<.. ITEM 720 -AIR RELEASE AND VACUUM BREAK VALVE B. Valves shall not exhibit leaks or weeping of liquid past the large orifice seal at operating pressures of 7.3 psi to twice rated working pressure. C. Valves shall respond to the presence of air by discharging it through the small orifice at any pressures within a specified design range, i.e. 7.3 psi to 232 psi, 363 psi or 580 psi, and shall remain leak tight in the absence of air D. Valves shall react immediately to pipeline drainage or water column separation by the full opening of the large orifice so as to allow unobstructed air intake at the lowest possible negative internal pipeline pressure. 720.04-INSTALLATION The air release and vacuum break valve shall be located on the top of the pipe at locations as indicated on the plans. Where indicated on the plans or by the Engineer, the valve shall be offset laterally from the pipe. The air release and vacuum break valve and gate valve shall be connected to the pipe line by using a tapped saddle for sizes 2"and below. Air release and vacuum break valves larger than 2"shall be connected by a Class 125 flanged connection. The complete unit shall be located within a structure as detailed on the plans. The structure shall be located or equipped so that no surface water can enter the pipeline. When required by the Engineer, a snorkel pipe shall be attached to the valve outlet and extended above ground. 720.05-MANUFACTURER The air release and vacuum break valve shall be as manufactured by Vent-O-Mats Series RBX, ARI, or prior approved equal. 720.06-PAYMENT No separate payment for work performed under this item unless otherwise indicated in the bid items.

Lake Houston Dam Rehabilitation Project($10.7M) Project consisted of work with Coastal Water Authority(CWA)to update several deficient areas of the existing Lake Houston Dam to bring it into compliance with current Texas Commision on Environmental Quality(TCEQ) guidelines. New OGEE weirs were constructed along with a new training wall which coincided with a retaining wall modification. Existing splitter wall was cut and lowered, and new weep holes were installed. Additional access ramp was installed along with site modifications to improve access and site utilization. Lake Houston Dam remained operational throughout the project. This provided unique challenges for protecting new construction from discharge water from the dam. Additionally the project endured several historical storm events through the project life cycle. Lick Creek Parallel Trunk Line Phase I&II($10.9M) Installation of additional sanitary infrastructure for the City of College Station. Project provided unique challenges through difficult poor access, installation through an active golf course, and coordination with Exxonmobil. 8200LF of 48"and 4,100LF of 54"sanitary sewer was installed. Project utilized fiberglass manholes as well as rehabilitation of a few existing manholes. Several bores were used to install sanitary pipe in environmentally sensitive areas as well as underneath Lick Creek. Coordination occured with the City of College Station Parks Department for restoration activities to create a nature trail through the pipeline Right of Way.
