WT0302161101JAX 1 WELL BACKPLUGGING, LOGGING, TESTING PLANS, AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR JEA BRIERWOOD WTP WELL NOS. 4 AND 5 Minimum Requirement Bidders must provide evidence of successfully completing a minimum of three example well backplugging projects in the past 5 years. The three example projects must have casing or borehole diameters of 8 inches or greater, and must have been a minimum of 500 feet deep prior to backplugging. Complete well abandonments will not be considered as sufficient examples. Bidders must provide well diameters, well depths, backplug intervals, cement volumes, and method of grout placement and development. Owner contact information and any subcontractors that were associated with these projects must be provided. Background Information The Brierwood WTP is located at 6513 Powers Avenue in Jacksonville, Florida. Brierwood Well Nos. 4 and 5 were constructed in 1999 to provide raw water to the Brierwood WTP. Both wells were constructed on the Owner’s property outside the limits of the WTP facility, located off of a service road that can be accessed from the easternmost corner of the WTP boundary. The road is gated and requires coordination with the Owner to access. In addition to Well Nos. 4 and 5, there are three other production wells (Wells Nos. 1, 2, and 3) that continue to supply raw water to the Brierwood WTP. Figure 1 shows the approximate location of the Brierwood WTP and Well Nos. 4 and 5. Well No. 4 was constructed with a 20‐inch diameter steel casing installed to a depth of approximately 514 feet below land surface (bls), with a nominal 20‐inch open interval extending from the base of the casing to a depth of approximately 1,102 feet bls. The specific capacity of the well was recently measured at approximately 24 gallons per minute per foot (gpm/ft) of drawdown, at a pumping rate of 2,300 gpm. The static water level in the well was approximately 10.5 feet above the top of casing (atoc) at the time of testing. Well No. 5 was constructed with a 20‐inch diameter steel casing installed to a depth of approximately 515 feet bls, with a nominal 20‐inch open internal extending from the base of the casing to a depth of 1,100 feet bls. The specific capacity of the well was estimated to be on the order of 15 gpm/ft, at a pumping rate of approximately 770 gpm. The static water level in the well is expected to be approximately 15 feet atoc. Well No. 5 was recently taken out of service because of issues with the existing pump. Since 1999 both wells have experienced deteriorating water quality due to the migration of brackish water in the lower producing zones of the wellfield. The purpose of this work is to identify the primary production zones in the wellbores, determine where the poor quality water is entering the wellbores, and abandon those zones contributing poor quality water through backplugging. Figures 2 and 3 include the well diagrams for Well Nos. 4 and 5 and the estimated target backplugging depth and cement quantity necessary to backplug the wells for costing purposes. Table 1 summarizes the well construction details. Table 1.


Perform video inspection and recording only while well water is clear.

Run video inspection the full depth of the well (land surface to total depth).

Maintain continuous image on video monitor during inspection and continuously record image on video.

Install centralizers on the video camera to prevent or minimize camera rotation during the video
inspection if the video inspection is conducted under flowing or pumping conditions.

Display date and numbers during the inspection indicating depth of camera below top of casing on the
video monitor. Record numbers with image on the video.
Submittals The Contractor closeout submittals shall include the following: 1. Provide the Engineer with one field copy of the video (DVD format) before leaving the site.
2. Provide five final video copies (DVD format) as a permanent record of the video well inspection.
