indicated, to tolerance of plus or minus 8 mm, for Turf Grass Nursery Sod

.4 Remove and dispose of weeds; debris; stones 50 mm in diameter and larger; soil

contaminated by oil, gasoline and other deleterious materials in accordance with waste

management and disposal requirements.

3.2 SOD PLACEMENT

.1 Lay sod during growing season. Sodding during dry summer, freezing temperatures or

over frozen soil is not acceptable.

.2 Lay sod within 24 hours of being lifted if air temperature exceeds 20 degrees C.

.3 Lay sod sections in rows, perpendicular to slope, joints staggered. Butt sections closely

without overlapping or leaving gaps between sections. Cut out irregular or thin sections

with sharp implements.

.4 Roll sod as directed by DCC Representative. Provide close contact between sod and soil

by light rolling. Use of heavy roller to correct irregularities in grade is not permitted.

.5 The sod shall be placed evenly and closely packed together, leaving no open joints and no

overlap on adjacent pieces of sod. A full row of sod, not less than 450 mm in width shall

be placed along the perimeter of the sodded area, parallel to planting or walkway areas.

.6 Where big roll sod is to be placed, ensure that any reinforcement netting that may be used

to assist with the harvesting or placement of the sod roll is removed before final

placement of the sod.

.7 Water immediately after sod laying to obtain moisture penetration through sod into top

100 mm of topsoil.

.8 All visible joints, low, bare or dead spots shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the DCC

Representative prior to the commencement of the maintenance period.

.9 Sodding operations shall be completed within two working days after placing the sod.

This shall be deemed to include watering, rolling, and repairing any visible joints and

low, bare or dead spots within the sodded area.

3.3 SOD PLACEMENT ON SLOPES AND PEGGING

.1 Start laying sod at bottom of slopes.

UNCLASSIFIED




DHTC 1612

UNCLASSIFIED

.2 Peg sod in all areas where slope exceeds 10%.

3.4 FERTILIZING PROGRAM

.1 Fertilize during establishment and warranty periods to program as approved by the DCC

Representative.

.2 During both the placement and maintenance of sod, all sidewalks, streets, approaches,

driveways and properties near the sodding operation shall be kept clean at all times by the

Contractor.

.3 Upon completion of installation, remove surplus materials, rubbish, tools and equipment

barriers.

3.5 WATERING AND ROLLING

.1 Immediately after placement of sod, water the area in sufficient quantities and

frequencies required to obtain root development and sod growth. All costs to provide

water for sodded areas shall be borne by the Contractor. These costs may include hydrant

permit and meter rental fees.

.2 After the sod and topsoil has dried sufficiently to prevent damage, the areas shall be

rolled (the edges pounded if necessary) with a mechanical roller minimum weight of

220kg and minimum width of 760mm to form a uniform even surface and level with

adjoining existing grades, sidewalks and curbs. heavy rolling to correct irregularities in

grade will not be permitted. Sodded areas near existing fixtures that are unable to be

rolled shall be thoroughly tamped to ensure a good bond between topsoil and sod.

3.6 MAINTENANCE DURING ESTABLISHMENT PERIOD

.1 Maintain sod areas from the start of Work until a full 30 days after the recognized

completion date. Contractor shall provide and pay for continuous maintenance of the

sodded area until the criteria specified for termination of the maintenance period has been

met.

.2 Perform following operations from time of installation until acceptance.

.1 Water sodded areas in sufficient quantities and at frequency required to maintain

optimum soil moisture condition to depth of 75 to 100 mm.

.2 Cut grass to 50 mm when or prior to it reaching height of 75 mm. Remove

clippings which will smother grassed areas.

.3 Maintain sodded areas weed free 95%.Control weeds by mechanical means only

utilizing acceptable integrated pest management practices. Chemical herbicides

and pesticides are not permitted.

.4 Fertilize areas in accordance with fertilizing program. Spread half of required

amount of fertilizer in one direction and remainder at right angles and water in

well.

3.7 ACCEPTANCE

.1 Turf Grass Nursery Sod areas will be accepted by DCC Representative provided that:

.1 Sodded areas are properly established.

.2 Sod is free of bare and dead spots.

.3 No surface soil is visible from height of 1500 mm when grass has been cut to

height of 50 mm.

.4 Sodded areas have been cut minimum two times prior to acceptance.

.2 Areas sodded in fall will be accepted in following spring one month after start of growing

season provided acceptance conditions are fulfilled.

.3 Any areas sodded after September 15th which do not show an even stand of live growth

and/or adequate root development in that year shall have the maintenance period

commence on May 15th of the following year or such date as mutually agreed upon by all

parties, at which time all sod must show an even stand of live growth. Deficient sod shall

be replaced and the area so replaced shall be further maintained for a period of thirty (30)

days. Maintenance shall be understood to include replacement of damaged or vandalized

area and any required spring clean-up.

3.8 MAINTENANCE DURING WARRANTY PERIOD

.1 Perform following operations from time of acceptance until end of warranty period:

.1 Water sodded areas at weekly intervals to obtain optimum soil moisture

conditions to depth of 100 mm.

.2 Repair and r-sod dead or bare spots to satisfaction of DCC Representative.

.3 Cut grass and remove clippings that will smother grass as directed by DCC

Representative to height as follows:

.1 Sod: 50 mm during normal growing conditions.

.2 Cut grass at two week intervals or as directed by DCC Representative,

but at intervals so that approximately one third of growth is removed in

single cut.

.3 Fertilize areas in accordance with fertilizing program. Spread half of

required amount of fertilizer in one direction and remainder at right

angles and water in well.

.4 Control weeds by mechanical means only utilizing acceptable integrated

pest management practices. Chemical herbicides and pesticides are not

permitted.
