by benching into the slope.

If the material removed from the excavation is suitable for backfill with the
exception that it contains stones larger than permitted, the Contractor has the
option to remove the oversized stones and use the material for backfill or to
provide replacement backfill at no additional cost to the Owner.

The Contractor shall remove loam and topsoil, loose vegetation, stumps, large
roots, etc., from areas upon which embankments will be built or areas where
material will be placed for grading. The sub-grade shall be shaped as indicated
on the Drawings and shall be prepared by forking, furrowing, or plowing so
that the first layer of the fill material placed on the sub-grade will be well
bonded to the sub-grade.

Where called for on the Drawings, Lightweight Fill shall be placed and
compacted as recommended by the manufacturer. The exact number of passes
shall be approved by the Engineer to insure stability of the layer. As soon as
the compaction of each layer has been completed, the next layer shall then be
placed. The Contractor shall take all necessary precautions during construction
activities in operations on or adjacent to the Lightweight Fill to insure that the
material is not over-compacted. Construction equipment, other than for
compaction, shall not operate on the exposed Lightweight Fill. The top surface
of the Lightweight Fill lying directly below the gravel course shall be chinked
by additional rolling of the Lightweight Fill to prevent infiltration of fines.

B. TRENCHES:

l.

Bedding as detailed and specified shall be furnished and installed beneath the

pipeline prior to placement of the pipeline. A minimum bedding thickness shall

be maintained between the pipe and undisturbed material, as shown on the

Drawings.

As soon as practicable after pipes have been laid, backfilling shall be started.
Unless otherwise indicated on the Drawings, select backfill shall be placed by
hand shovel in 6-inch thick lifts up to a minimum level of 12-inches above the
top of pipe. This area of backfill is considered the zone around the pipe and
shall be thoroughly compacted before the remainder of the trench is backfilled.
Compaction of each lift in the zone around the pipe shall be done by use of
power-driven tampers weighing at least 20 pounds or by vibratory compactors.
Care shall be taken that material close to the bank, as well as in all other
portions of the trench, is thoroughly compacted to densities required.

Class B backfill shall be placed from the top of the select backfill to the
specified material at grade (loam, pavement sub-base, etc.). Fill compaction
shall meet the density requirements of this specification.

Water Jetting:

a. Water jetting may be used when the backfill material contains less than
10 percent passing the number 200 sieve, but shall be used only if
approved by the Engineer.

b. Contractor shall submit a detailed plan describing the procedures he
intends to use for water jetting to the Engineer for approval prior to any

water jetting taking place.
c. Compaction of backfill placed by water jetting shall conform to the
requirements of this specification.

6. If the materials above the trench bottom are unsuitable for backfill, the
Contractor shall furnish and place backfill materials meeting the requirements
for trench backfill, as shown on the drawings or specified herein.

7. Should the Engineer order crushed stone for utility supports or for other
purposes, the Contractor shall furnish and install the crushed stone as directed.

8. In shoulders of streets and the road, the top 12-inch layer of trench backfill
shall consist of crushed gravel for sub-base, satisfying the requirements of
NHDOT.

C. BACKFILLING ADJACENT TO STRUCTURES:

1. The Contractor shall not place backfill against or on structures until they have
attained sufficient strength to support the loads to which they will be
subjected. Excavated material approved by the Engineer may be used in
backfilling around structures. Backfill material shall be thoroughly compacted
to meet the requirements of this specification.

2. Contractor shall use extra care when compacting adjacent to pipes and drainage
structures. Backfill and compaction shall proceed along sides of drainage
structures so that the difference in top of fill level on any side of the structure
shall not exceed two feet (2') at any stage of construction.

3. Where backfill is to be placed on only one side of a structural wall, only hand-
operated roller or plate compactors shall be used within a lateral distance of
five feet (5') of the wall for walls less than fifteen feet (15') high and within ten
feet (10') of the wall for walls more than fifteen feet (15') high.

3.04 DISPOSAL OF SURPLUS MATERIALS:

A. No excavated material shall be removed from the site of the work or disposed of by
the Contractor unless approved by the Engineer.

B. Surplus excavated materials, which are acceptable to the Engineer, shall be used to
backfill normal excavations in rock or to replace other materials unacceptable for
use as backfill.

C. Surplus excavated clean material not needed as specified above shall be hauled away
and disposed of by the Contractor at the Nashua Landfill. Arrangements must be
made with the landfill prior to delivery. Disposal of all rubble shall be in
accordance with all applicable local, state and federal regulations.

| have no problem with reducing the rent because | have seen the progress they have made on the building
and it is being utilized, it is not being vandalized and if they decide to leave at any time, we have a functioning

facility for us. If | had remembered correctly we had started off that it would be almost what the cost of taxes
would be. But thank you for that more elaborate explanation.

Re: Finance Committee — “Notice of Exercise of Option” on existing Gillig, LLC contract to
Purchase 1 additional fixed route 30’ CNG Bus

The Nashua Transit System went out to bid in 2016 with RFP0156-010716 CNG Low Floor Buses
to replace eight of its fixed route buses. A contract with Gillig, LLC was approved by the Finance
Committee on June 15, 2016 and signed on July 27, 2016.

Pursuant to Part 1 and Part 9, Section 3, of the RFP and all other applicable parts of the agreement,
the City of Nashua is exercising its option to purchase one (1) additional 30’ CNG bus under the
terms and conditions of the previous four (4) buses per the agreement. This new bus will replace
one of the trolleys that has exceeded its useful life and will continue to have rising maintenance
costs. Having a new replacement bus will enhance the experience of our riders who prefer full sized
buses to the current trolleys.

The price of this 30’ bus is $523,542 payable upon accepted delivery of the bus. This price is based
upon the original purchase price with the additional cost applied from the PPI Index Escalator, as
discussed in Section 1.3 of the RFP. FTA funding has been awarded through a Bus and Bus
Facilities Infrastructure Investment Program Grant and will pay 85% of the capital costs for a total
of $445,010. The State of NH and the City of Nashua will provide match funding at 7.5%
respectively for a total of $39,266 each.

The anticipated delivery date of the CNG 30” low floor bus is prior to June 30, 2020. We are
requesting approval to purchase this bus from Gillig, LLC under our current contract in the amount
of $523,542.
