8.24.2 If more than one bidder is found technically and commercially eligible for any city/area,

ITIL may consider award of work to more than one bidder in an area or city at the L-1 rates to expedite the pace of project completion.

8.24.3 In case of award of work to more than one bidder in the same area or city efforts shall be made

to award higher portion of work to the bidders better in price bid ranking i.e. lower the quote better the volume. (The General Criteria between L1,L2, and L3 shall be: 60:40 in case of choosing lowest two bidders; 50:30:20 in case of choosing lowest three bidders). However, the Tender being for a service and not for the supplies, the exact ratio of work and choice of area may not be met despite of all efforts. Accordingly, no PIA shall have any right to claim on Jurisdiction or Quantum of work.

8.24.4 Should there be an eventuality that the pace of progress is not coming from the

deployed PIA(s) in any of the City/Area and the LDs are mounting towards outer limits, ITIL shall resort to awarding the whole or part of such work to alternate PIA at Risk & Cost which may be chosen from amongst the bidders who were technically qualified in the process of this very tender for the City/Area under consideration or for any other City/Area by inviting separate competitive financial bids for such pending work from such interested companies. Cost escalation if happens in this process, shall be recoverable from the faltering PIA(s) of such City/Area.

IN CASE OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN GENERAL COMMERCIAL CONDTIONS AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT, LATTER SHALL PREVAIL.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

After approval of Detailed Survey Report from the CUSTOMER and only after receipt of ROW Permission / approvals from concerned authorities, Partner shall plan to start work by deploying workforce first in difficult terrains such as Rocky area, Bridge/Nala/ Culvert, city, town and village limits. Invariably the execution has to start from Customer’s existing nodes (lighted fiber POP) – In-Building work to be done first to avoid any issue at later stage at tower/ site end.

Partner shall not keep materials, cables and tools in such a manner as to cause interference with free flow of traffic and cause inconvenience to public (Material should be stored at site store which will arrange by partner.

Partner shall obtain all approvals, permits and licenses necessary to do work from appropriate authorities.

73

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK : Work, shall be carried out as per Specifications. The main steps are as under:

Obtaining ROW permission.

Excavation of trench/trenchless digging.

Laying of GI as per IS1239 Class B and / or DWC ducts as per IS14930 as additional protection for the HDPE ducts at rail / road crossings, built-up area/city limits, on culverts, bridges, lesser depth areas and also on stretches wherever required, as decided by the CUSTOMER’s Site-In charge of the work as per specifications.

Laying of HDPE ducts and if asked nylon rope should be pulled through same.

Chambering or concreting(Block PCC 1:2:4) all round DWC duct as per IS14930 / or GI pipes (class B) as additional protection on bridges, culverts and also on stretches wherever depth of excavation is less than specified and wherever required as decided by CUSTOMER’s Site-In charge.

Reinstatement of excavated trench with proper compaction and crowning.

Fixing of duly galvanized clamps along with Fischer bolts for holding GI/DWC pipes at culverts and bridges and where-ever necessary.

LOCATION AND ALLIGNMENT OF OPEN TRENCH :Trench must be aligned according to permission granted by authority/agency. However following guidelines must be adhered to:- Trench must be done strictly within limits of the ROW permission granting authority.

Trench must not be done on the road berms. Where it is not possible to avoid the road berms, ROW authorities /Circle Operation Head concurrence is must before start of execution.

Cross pits must be made manually to check presence of any underground utilities at adequate spacing.

Trench boundaries shall be marked with rope / lime powder prior to digging in order to get trench in straight line.

Trench shall be located at lowest point of lower area if feasible. Trench must not come over field’s boundary or any heap of soil/garbage dump.

74

Trees roots must be by passed to avoid damage while trenching and ensuring safe passage of OFC. Such negotiation should be of smooth curve.

Depth will be measured from lower side (in case of ground with slope) of natural ground level. Where cable is laid through duct, depth of trench shall be measured from top of duct.

Specified trench depth has to be maintained always in all types of Soil.

However in certain exceptional site conditions like hills or hard strata it may not be feasible to dig up to specified depth. In such cases, duct may be laid at lesser depth

as per specification with DWC pipe/GI pipe/ PCC concreting individually as per specification.

Mentioned depth will be measured from top of laid duct. In case hard rock of volcanic (Igneous) is encountered from surface then deviation Type ‘A’, Type ‘B’, Type ‘C’ and Type ‘D’, are allowed and no NC need to be filled. However the protections for other strata are as per table below.

In all cases of lesser depth, deviation notes will have to be raised and got approved as per table mentioned in annexure. Reason for not achieving the specified depth along with type of deviation should be clearly mentioned along with the details of protection provided.

Bottom of trench shall be uniform and should follow contour of ground. Width of excavated trench sufficient to lay requisite number of HDPE Ducts and GI / DWC pipes and also concreting, wherever required. Payment shall be made only on basis of running meter of completed work and shall not be based on volume of excavation.

To prevent soil erosion due to free rain water flowing along or inside the trench, suitable “Blockades/Stone pitching” will have to be constructed at every 10 m with height up to ground level.

In city areas trench will normally follow footpath / pedestrian way of road except where it may have to come to edge of carriage way or when cutting across road with specific permissions from road authorities responsible (such permission will be obtained by Partner from concerned authorities).

Outside the city limits trench will normally follow boundary of roadside land. However, where road side land is full of burrow pits or forestation or when cable is to be laid along culverts/bridges or cross streams, trench may be made closer to road edge or in some cases, over embankment or shoulder of road. (The Partner will do all liaisons with concerned authorities and will obtain permission for such deviations for cutting embankment and shoulder of road. Failure to do so will compel Customer to pass on any penalty to Partner which may eventually be imposed by concerned authorities).

Alignment of trench should be uniform and follow the ROW guidelines.

While marking alignment only centerline will be marked and Partner shall

75

set out all other work to ensure that, excavated trench is as straight as possible. Partner shall provide all necessary assistance and layout, at his own cost for marking the alignment.

The Partner shall clear, prepare and grade the Right of Way to facilitate marking of the alignment of the trench. Partner shall remove all bushes, undergrowth, stems, rocks and other obstacles to facilitate marking the centerline without any extra charges. It is to be ensured that minimum amount of bushes and shrubs shall be removed to clear way and Partner shall give all consideration to preservation of trees within right of way.

Line up of trench must be such that HDPE duct(s) shall be laid in straight line, both laterally/ horizontally as well as vertically except at locations where it has to

necessarily take a bend because of change in alignment or gradient of trench. Minimum radius of two meters shall be maintained, where necessary.

Linear and Ring Path will be by separate trenching and minimum gap in both trench would be >2m in both Open Trench Method

If Gap <2.0 m in both path by any method will be called SPOF and appropriate approved deviation must be there.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN WHILE TRENCHING

It is required that trenches are not kept open. Trenching, cable laying/ducting and backfilling activities be done parallel as far as possible. Any mishap or accident due to open trenches shall be sole responsibility of Partner. CUSTOMER shall never be liable on any such account and no claim on this account shall be entertained by them. Further, the Partner shall indemnify and keep CUSTOMER fully indemnified against any liability arising out of or on account of such claims.

No trench shall be kept open close to carriage way/berm. Caution boards shall be displayed at all such locations, to caution public. Partner shall protect all life and property from damage while doing construction/trenching work.

If Warning covers of other services or operators are encountered during excavation, earth around these is gently removed to loosen them. The covers are then removed and stacked outside the trench for reuse. When underground plan of other services are exposed during excavation, adequate protection is provided at suitable intervals along the run of these plans/services and concerned authorities shall be informed.

In event of inadvertent damage, location and nature of damage must be intimated to concerned department immediately. In the meantime action is taken for preventing aggravation of damage. Damages are indemnified and losses are made good by Partner.

76

Necessary barricades, night lamps, warning boards and required watch man shall be provided by Partner at his own cost, to prevent any accident to pedestrians or vehicles or animals. While carrying out blasting operations, the Partner shall ensure that licensed blasting professional are employed for the purpose and adequate safety measure are taken by cautioning vehicular and other traffic. He shall employ sufficient manpower for this with caution boards, flags, sign writing etc. Any consequences due to lack of precaution or otherwise, on this shall be sole responsibility of Partner.

Caution boards are set up at a height of 1.25 m above ground level so that they are visible from a distance of 25 meters. Boards will have yellow and black background with writing in bold letters with red fluorescent paint. Boards shall be displayed at start and finish point of area in which work is under progress. Additional display boards are placed at either side of the trench. Boards must indicate the name of trenching authority, name of Engineer in charge of work with contact phone and dates of opening and closing

trench. During night warning lamps (flicker lamp, lantern with glass painted red) shall be provided. They are placed at locations so as to indicate length and width of trench.

All work is supervised by Partner’s representative, who must carry with him following documents:-

Letter from CUSTOMER authorizing Partner to carry out work in the specific area.

Copy of permission issued by concerned authority.

Partner shall provide adequate precautionary measures to prevent caving in of the trenches while excavation, due to soil condition. At such locations, width of the trenches shall be kept adequate and necessary arrangement shall be made for safe working within trenches. Arrangement must also be made for pumping out sub- soil/underground water from trench, if any.

In city limits as well as in built up area, Partner shall use manual labor only, and shall ensure that no damage is caused to any underground or surface installations belonging to other public utility services and/or private parties.

Temporary foot-bridges are provided when trenches are made across entrance of buildings etc.

Special care should be taken in digging footpaths. Proper protection shall be provided to avoid accidents. No inconvenience should be caused to pedestrians.

Underground power cable is not to be moved. Electricity dept. is immediately informed. Horizontal and vertical separation of 60 cm shall be maintained from power cable. As far as possible power cable should be crossed at right angle.

Near foundations and boundary walls, excavation must be taken up in consultation of and in presence of owners.

77

All necessary arrangement is made to maintain stability of trenching.

Rock Excavation is normally done by chiseling and Blasting is done, if permitted by local authority. Necessary license must be obtained for blasting. Public property both below and above ground must not be endangered damaged. All possible precautions must be taken for safety of public and staff involved in the work.

However, along highways and cross country there shall be no objection to Partner resorting to mechanical means of excavation, with approval of CUSTOMER Site-In charge provided that no underground installation existing in path of excavation, if any, are damaged.

While the machine can be used for clearing small bushes, trees should not be cut or uprooted for purpose of movement of excavating machines. Where such necessity arises, permission from competent authorities to partially cut such trees should be obtained in writing. Compensation to cut such trees for movement of machines shall be paid by the Partner and no additional payment shall be claimed from CUSTOMER

Any valuable material of cultural/ historical/ archeological interest, if found while trenching, shall be brought to the notice of CUSTOMER and the authority concerned

DUCT LAYING

Specified lengths of Ducts shall be laid using dispenser/de-coiler designed for the purpose. Partner shall ensure that Duct laid is free from twist and kinks. Any collapsed portion of duct shall be removed before backfilling and duct made continuous by putting couplers.

Place the duct in trench as straight as possible. However at bends horizontal and vertical minimum bending radius as per specification to be maintained.

Ducts shall be laid in flat bottom trench free from stones, sharp edged debris. No water should be present in trench, while laying the duct/DWC pipe.

Spacers must be used while installing multiple (five or more) ducts. Up to four ducts no spacer is used. Partner shall ensure parallel lying of ducts (without crisscross).

Ends of ducts shall always be closed with End Plugs to avoid ingress of mud, water or dust.

The ducts shall be joined with couplers using duct cutter and proper tools only. Do not use hacksaw to cut the duct. The duct joint shall be practically airtight to ensure smooth cable blowing using cable blowing machines.

All coupler locations shall be covered with stone as per specification prior to backfilling and position marked on ABD.

Never place coupler along the bent portion of duct/trench in both horizontal

78

as well as vertical direction.

Wherever GI pipes are used rubber bushes shall be used at the two ends of the GI pipes to protect the damages of HDPE ducts. When GI pipes are to be laid with suitable bends, pipe bender is to be used. The bends may be obtained by making proper ‘V’ cut on GI pipe at two locations close to the bend and by applying bending force so that proper curvature is achieved without sharp corners. The HDPE duct shall be inserted into the GI pipe before bending. GI pipe shall be welded at ‘V’ cut edges after bending. None of the portion of duct will be visible at V-Cut location. It should be either closed by welding or fixing “m-seal” on clean surface.

DUCT INTEGRATION TEST (DIT)

After backfilling ducts shall be tested for integrity (air tightness and kink-free shape). Air tightness test is done by pressurizing 2 km duct stretch at a time. One end of duct will be closed and compressed air at 5-6kg/cm2 is sent from the other end. At about 5kg/cm2 pressure the inlet of compressed air will be closed. Fall in pressure should not be more than 50% in 1 (one) hour.

To check that duct has not collapsed or kinked a wooden/plastic cylindrical piece (shuttle) of size 150 mm (15cm) long and 0.75 X D mm in dia where ‘D’ is inner diameter of duct, is blown into the duct with far end fitted with flexible wire grip/stocking. The wooden shuttle should pass through duct at far end without any obstruction within approx. 10 minutes or less. Do not stand in front of the far end of the duct under test as IT CAN BE FATAL.

CABLE BLOWING

Drum test will be carried out for every drum as per Drum Test Report format (to ensure that no damage has been caused during transit). Cable drums after Inward Goods Inspection (IGI) should be mounted on pay off stand, which is kept on plain ground for stability. Soil under the stand should be firm, not to allow stand to tilt.

Process of OFC blowing is explained as under:-

Cable blowing machine (Cable jet or any other machine) should be deployed along with a good compressor delivering 10 kg/ sq. cm pressure and 700 cfm discharge.

Cable drum will be loaded on payoff stand and unwound from topside of the drum. Pay off stand should be placed properly so that it does not get tilted or fall down while dispensing OFC. First half of total length should be blown through duct in one direction from the center of the span of the duct in which cable is planned to be laid.

In case when complete half of the drum length cannot be blown in a single go, cable is blown up to feasible distance by opening the coupler at that location

79

and then balance length shall be blown and stored in figure of “8” close to trench in obstacle free space. Further blowing shall be done from this location.

The process at Clause 8.2 can be repeated so that complete length is blown on one side.

After blowing half-length in one direction the cable should be unwounded at the location of pay off stand and stored in a figure of “8”. Then inner end of the OFC should be blown in opposite direction as explained in Clause no. 8.2 above.

Kink in OFC during blowing and after blowing must be avoided. At blowing points, the last loop of OFC should be manually pulled after cable blowing, couplers must be tightened

BACK FILLING

Back Filling in Rocky Terrain (Country Side) - Trench shall be initially filled with Sieved soil for about 5 cm which will act as a Soft cushion/Padding and then duct is placed gently over it. After that another layer of 10 cm of fine sieved soil is poured and then entire trench is backfilled with excavated material.

Duct is laid through DWC/GI pipe, which is then covered with concrete as per specification. After making concrete block the curing should be done at least for 7 days. Back filling in remaining portion is done with crushed stones, which have been removed during excavation of trench. Top 10 cm of trench is to be filled with loose soil and crown of 25 cm made on trench.

In case of trench aligned at slope Blockades after every 10 meter in the form of vertical walls of Flag stones or stone masonry be made to obstruct the flow of water. Rest of backfilling is as per above Para’s.

Back Filling in Normal Soil - Under normal soil conditions duct is directly laid in trench and backfilled in same manner as explained in section 9.1. Adequate dry compaction shall be done before Crowning. Compaction is done in layers of 50 cm each.

Crowning - When backfilling has been done up to ground level a hump of soil is made to cater for soil settlement. Entire excavated soil shall be used for back filling. Crowning shall be confined over width of trench only. No surplus soil shall be left outside trench (Crowning will be excluding of Trench depth).

Back filling on public, private roads, railway crossing, and footpaths in city areas shall be performed immediately after laying HDPE ducts. Back filling at such location shall be carried out by dry compaction in layers of 50 cm and thoroughly rammed; so as to ensure that original condition is achieved and made safe to traffic. All excess soil/material left out on road/footpath shall be removed without extra cost. However, along highways and cross-country, dug up material left out shall be kept as heap above trench while refilling.

Back-fill shall be maintained by Partner against wash-out, settlement below original level and rotting, until final completion of work and until first monsoon

80

season and reinstated to keep leveled condition as acceptable to the CUSTOMER Deployment team and highway/local authorities without any extra payment. To ensure this, Partners agent will inspect compacted trench alignment after first rain and re do work as pointed out by CUSTOMER operation engineers/ Area Manager. Decision of CUSTOMER operation engineers/ Area Manager in this regard is final and binding on Partner.

BRIDGE / CULVERT CROSSING

The work involves laying of HDPE ducts through GI/DWC pipes laid on the bridge. DWC pipes are to be used at such locations where sun rays and rain water don’t fall on them. Either one of the following methods will be employed or same will be decided during first route survey by Partner and Deployment team.

On Arch type bridges where depth up to 300 mm is not possible to dig, make a trench in bridge tar road of 150-mm width and lay DWC duct as per IS14930 (certified by CIPET or equivalent certified Govt. agency) or from approved vendor by Customer. In case of dry/seasonal rivers/drains, it is advisable to cross water path from river-bed and protection as per specification - A trench of 1.6 meter or more is made. DWC ducts 117/100 mm with couplers are laid. Ducts (max 3 or as directed by Customer operation engineer) are laid through the DWC duct. DWC duct are encased/covered in 30 x 30 cm beam with Smooth plaster/finish, Steel member 8 mm with stirrup at every 30 cm for reinforcement. Beam should extend up to abutment of bridge. Length of DWC duct should go 5 m beyond the abutment of Bridge on either side and BDL ducts should be protected up to 10 m all around with 1:2:4 Block concrete. Backfilling of trenches on slopes (entry and exit of river/drain) to be done as per Clause 10.3.

In case of river/Nala with water flow, the water path may be crossed from riverbed by diverting water with temporary bunds.

If 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 are not feasible then GI pipe or DWC (DWC pipes laid on the bridge. DWC pipes are to be used at such locations where sun rays and rain water don’t fall on them, if direct sun rays cannot be avoided on DWC pipes then GI sheet cladding over DWC pipe can be provided) is to be clamped on the outer side of parapet wall with the help clamps as specified. Clamps and anchor bolts are to be fixed at specified spacing. Two GI pipes shall be joined / tightened properly with pipe wrench. The level of GI pipe shall always be below the road level.

If all options explained in 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 are not feasible in case of bridge / culverts with wheel guard, and if the PWD/NH authorities approve, the GI/DWC pipe can be placed on the wheel guard and concreted with PCC 1:2:4, with duct inside GI /DWC pipe. Proper slope at either end of culvert/bridge should be maintained and the GI pipe should continue on either side and should extend up to trench bottom 1.65 m,

81

covered with concrete. NOTE: care needs to be taken “NOT TO REDUCE WIDTH OF CARRIAGEWAY”.

In case the parapet wall is non-existent or is in dilapidated condition, the clamps should be fixed on slab of bridge if permitted.

Cable loop is to be left at bridge crossings in loop chambers as per specifications.

Before crossing culvert the local PWD engineer/ROW authorities must be consulted in charge for future plan of expansion or re-construction and decide the alignment of trench (distance from road center line).

Trench depth should be minimum of 1.65 m with DWC+PCC protection, length of trench should be at least double of culvert length or 5 meter beyond abutment whichever is more. In rocky terrain depth shall be 1.2 m with DWC+ PCC protection will be provided.
