LOUIS, MISSOURI 88114 PHONM 21"264010 January 3 , 1969 PROPOSAL TO: City of Jefferson 240 East High Street Jefferson City, Missouri 65101 FROM: The Penetryn System, Inc. 8587 St. Charles Rock Road St. Louis, Missouri 63114 FOR: Elimination Of Ground Water And Root Intrusion Through Sewer Joints By The Plastic Injection Method In The East Side Main Sewer. SCOPE OF WORK T� Z�a work covered by this proposal consists of furnishing all chemicals, equipment, supervision and labor, and performing all work necessary to eliminate ground water infiltration and root intrusion, through sewer joints, by use of the Plastic Injection Method in clean and open sanitary sewers. GENERAL A. The term "clean" as used in these specifications shall mean the removal of all sand, rocks, grease and all other solid or semi- solid material found in the designated sewer lines. B. Sealing of the joints slall be by the PATENTED "Plastic Injection Method" as used by The Penetryn System, Inc. , utilizing a chemical stabilization material in two parts, applied from the interior of the sewer pipe through a closed hydraulic system. C. The phrase "elimination of ground water infiltration" as used in these specifications shall mean the complete elimination of soil. and water infiltration through any structurally sound sewer joint, as best as can be determined from the television monitor. A sewer line joint shall be the junction of two adjacent lengths of sewer pipe. D. Each joint viewed on the television monitor shall be tested and/or sealed. Joints showing root intrusion shall be treated as de- scribed in section "ROOT TRBATMENT11 of this proposal. Page 1 of 6 Continued. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

METHOD OF JOINT REPAIR A. The method of repair shall not damage, break, move or cause line settlement, assuming the line is structurally sound. Jetting or driving exterior pipes or similar procedures that could cause undermining of the line will not be allowed. Uncovering of the sewer line, removal of areas of paving or other materials at the existing grade level above the sewer line will not be allowed. B. The method of repair shall be such that the original cross- sectional area and shape of the interior of the sewer pipe shall not be permanently reduced or changed. Sealing materials that set to a hard rigid product that might intrude into the sewer line will not be acceptable. C. The elimination of infiltration shall be by an internal chemical sealing method, the PATENTED "Plastic Injection Method", as per- formed by The Penetryn System, Inc. Generally, this shall be accomplished by forcing sealing materials into and through the infiltrated point from within the sewer pipe, following isolation of the individual point of leakage. The equipment shall be a gasket, packer re-jointer or other suitable device which can be positioned to completely isolate each joint where infiltration is occurring. This device shall be an open-ended cylindrical casing of a size less than the pipe that is being repaired, with tow cables connected to either end to pull it through the line. An air impervious, inflatable sleeve shall be. mounted on the casing exterior with the ends of the sleeve sealed to the ends of the casing. A conduit shall pass through the open end of the casing and shall be adapted to supply a polymerizing material, under pressure, to the space at the casing and the sleeve. The sleeve shall be constructed in such a manner that it can be pneumatically expanded from the center to both ends. Expansion shall be regulated by precise pressure gauges and controls. No device which is ex- panded hydraulically or mechanically and which could cause damage to the pipe will be allowed. The pneumatically expanded sleeve shall seat against the inside periphery of the pipe in such a way as to form a void area, completely isolated from the remainder of the line. Into this isolated area, through hose lines leading from above ground, the chemical sealants shall be pumped with instant reading metered flow controlled proportioning pumps, and with pressures in excess of ground water pressures. The pumping and metering device shall be such that proportions and quantities of Page 2 of 6 Continued. . . . . . . . . . . . . . THE PENETRYN SYSTEM INC. 8387 ST.CHARM Rk. RD.

Pressures, proportions and quantities of the injection shall be determined according to the size and location of the leak, percentage of voids being filled, type of soil encountered and the rate of flow of the solution in relation to the back pressures . D. Sealing materials shall be Q-Seal as furnished by Community Utility Equipment & Supplies, Inc. of Orlando, Florida, a chemical sealant of two parts that mix within the sealing packer device. The material shall be a true solution containing the principal chemical sealant constituent and a two-part catalyst system .recommended by the manufacturer. The principal chemical sealant constituent and the catalyst system shall be of the same manufacture, specifically recommended by the manufacturer for the purpose of sealing leaks in sanitary sewer lines and stabilization of earth masses. The chemical sealant used shall have a documented service of satis- factory performance. in similar usage. The chemical sealant, in its gel form, after final reaction, shall be a translucent stiff gel (shall not be rigid or brittle) that is impermeable. The chemical solution shall have the ability to tolerate dilution and react in moving water. The viscosity of the solution, at a 10% aqueous solution and a temperature of 68 degrees F. , shall not be more than 3.0 centipoises (water equals 1 centipoise) . The chemical sealant shall be the result of bringing together two separate solutions, one of which contains the principal chemical sealant constituent and the activator part of the two9part catalyst system. The other solution shall contain the initiator part of the two-part catalyst system. The final reaction shall produce a continuous cross-linRing and irreversible gel at a chemical sealant concentration (the principal chemical sealant constituent) as low as 0.4 pounds per gallon of water and at concentrations of up to three pounds per gallon of water. The completed gel shall have a negligible corrosion rate on mild steel plates. When placed, the chemical sealant shall contain approximately 10% of the principal chemical sealant constituent, and appropriate percentages of each of the two-part catalyst system. Mixing and handling of the chemical sealant, and the constituents forming it, which may be toxic under certain con- ditions of contact and inhalation, shall be in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer.

E. Upon the completion of the injection, the camera shall be moved to such a position as to observe the results of the injection. ROOT TREATMENT As necessary and when directed by the Engineer-Inspector, the following procedures shall be used for deterring root growth. ► In general, the equipment and procedures for root treatment shall be the same as those described in Section "METHOD OF JOINT REPAIR", except that the treatment and seal shall be accomplished in accordance with the following two stage process: A. Into the isolated area formed by the packer a specially prepared combination of chemicals based on THS/RK (as supplied by Community Utility Equipment & Supplies, Inc. of Orlando, Florida) shall be pumped with pressures sufficient to overcome the hydrostatic head or 15 lbs. psi, whichever is greater. The chemicals shall have the capabilities of burning off and cauterizing the roots being treated. Pump- ing shall continue until the area being treated is filled or not more than one (1) minute. After pumping of the root deterrent chemicals the soil and roots being treated shall have a thirty (30) secibd "soak time" before starting the second stage of the operation. B. After root chemicals have had time to soak, the packer shall be inflated so as to isolate the same area. Into the isolated area sealing materials described in Section "METHOD OF JOINT REPAIR", mixed with the special root deterrent agent THS/RK shall be pumped, thus forming a root deterrent seal around the joint. After seal is completed the process described in "METHOD OF JOINT REPAIR" shall be followed. RECORDS The Penetryn System, Inc. shall furnish records in type- written book form showing all areas of joint repair and root treat- ment.
