The material shall be approved by the City of Carmel Department of Engineering at time of installation. Bedding shall be placed in the trench bottom such that after the pipe is installed to grade and line, there remains a 4 -inch minimum depth of material below the pipe barrel and a minimum of 3- inches below the bell. For pipe sizes 66- inches and larger, the minimum depth of material below the pipe barrel shall be 6- inches. Bedding shall be placed to be uniform as possible, but shall be loosely placed uncompocted material under the middle third of the pipe prior to placement of the pipe. If the underlying soils of the trench bottom are soft or yielding, the soil shall be undercut to such a depth that when repaired with #2 stone it will produce a uniform and stable foundation along the entire length of the pipe. Haunching shall be compacted in 8 -inch maximum lifts to not less than 90% Standard Proctor Density for the entire depth of the material placed. The backfill shall be brought up evenly on both sides of the pipe for the full length of the pipe. Haunching shall extend to the springline of the pipe. Minimum trench width shall be the outside diameter of the pipe plus 18- inches. Final Backfill Final backfill for all reinforced concrete pipe installations under and within 5 -feet of pavement or sidewalk or other paved areas and for all installations within City right -of -way shall be B- Borrow for Structure Backfill meeting the material requirements of the INDOT. The material shall be approved by the City of Carmel Department of Engineering at time of installation. Final backfill shall be compacted in 6 -inch maximum lifts to not less than 95% Standard Proctor Density for the entire depth of the material placed. The backfill for the top 6- inches of the excavation below the start of the aggregate sub -base of the pavement shall be No. 53 Stone meeting the material requirements of the INDOT and shall be compacted to not less than 95% Standard Proctor Density. Final Backfill for all reinforced concrete pipe installations greater than 5 -feet from pavement, sidewalk, other paved areas or the limit of City right -of -way shall be clean fill material free of rocks larger than 6- inches in diameter, frozen lumps of soil, wood or other extraneous material, compacted in 12 -inch maximum lifts to not less than 90% Standard Proctor Density for the entire depth of the excavation. The final 6- inches of the excavation shall consist of topsoil. Water and Sewer Under Pavement, Sidewalk, Paved areas and within Right -of -Way Bedding, Haunching, Initial Backfill Bedding, haunching and initial backfill materials, placement and compaction for water mains, water service laterals, sanitary mains and sanitary service laterals shall be in accordance with the standard practice of the utility that has jurisdiction over the installation.

The backfill for the top 6- inches of the excavation below the start of the aggregate sub -base of the pavement shall be No. 53 Stone meeting the material requirements of the INDOT and shall be compacted to not less than 95% Standard Proctor Density. If the standard practice of the utility that has jurisdiction over the installation has a more stringent final backfill requirement, the more stringent requirement shall govern. Minimum Cover for Pipe Crossings within City Right -of -Way For installation of Storm Mains, Water Mains, Sanitary Mains, Water Service Laterals, Sanitary Service Laterals under City streets, regardless of the jurisdiction of the utility, the minimum cover from the top of the installed pavement to the top of the installed pipe shall be the pavement section thickness (all bituminous and aggregate material above the subgrade) plus 1 -0 but under no circumstances shall the cover along any part of the pipe from the final pavement elevation to the top of the pipe be less than 2.5 -feet. If the standard practice of the utility that has jurisdiction over the installation has a more stringent cover requirement, the more stringent requirement shall govern. Cover heights for reinforced concrete pipe storm sewer that are less than those required will be evaluated on a case by case condition and approved only with written permission by the city engineer.
