Areas to be cleared shall be inspected by the Contractor and the Superintendent's approval obtained before any trees or shrubs are removed, cleared or destroyed. The Contractor shall take every reasonable precaution not to damage any tree, including its root system, which is nominated to be retained. All construction activities, including storage of materials, vehicles, equipment or rubbish, must be kept away from existing trees which are to be retained. Before any excavation is carried out over roots of trees to be retained, obtain a ruling from the Superintendent as to whether the levels in the vicinity of the tree can be adjusted to protect the roots. The Superintendent may direct the Contractor to repair any damage or injury to a tree that is to remain. This work shall be carried out by an approved tree surgeon engaged by the Contractor. 1.7 Drainage of Site During Construction The Contractor shall carry out the work in such a way as to ensure that no heading up of floodwaters in new or existing drains or gutters occurs. The Contractor shall be responsible for any damage to public or private property caused by his operations or which may arise from such operations. Should this clause not be complied with, the Superintendent may order work to cease until in his opinion satisfactory arrangements for such drainage have been made. The site may be subject to surface water in the form of base flows or flood flows during the construction period. The Contractor is required to account for and handle all flows, base and flood, during the construction period, and shall be deemed to have made due allowance in his tender for all costs involved. 1.8 Matching In and Making Good In addition to the requirements specified in this specification, any damage caused or any temporary relocations necessary to existing stormwater drains, sign posts, street signs, barrier posts, litter bins or other similar items shall be made good to a standard which is at least equal to the existing construction and in a workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the Superintendent. Unless otherwise specified, where the specified works adjoin or abut an existing roadway, footpath or other existing construction, the existing pavement shall be removed within the limits shown on the drawings, the existing bitumen shall be saw-cut in a straight line so that the new pavement matches to give a smooth riding surface and satisfactory drainage properties. The new kerbs and gutters shall match the existing kerbs and gutters at the locations shown on the drawings. Ref No. 20120236SA1 Kingscote Streets Upgrades Technical Specification 3
