The Gas Meter Replacement project involves the removal and installation of gas meters at multiple buildings, requiring a contractor to provide labor, materials, and supervision in compliance with relevant codes and regulations. The work includes uninstalling existing gas meter systems, followed by the installation of new components such as analog gas meters, shutoff valves, regulators, and earthquake valves, ensuring all pipes match specifications to avoid the use of reducers. The gas meters must support advanced meter reading capabilities and must be analog without batteries. Key requirements include coordination of outages, maintaining a clean worksite, and ensuring all work meets outlined safety and building codes. The document emphasizes the contractor's accountability for proper installation and aesthetic finishes, with specified working hours and conditions aimed at minimizing disruption. This project aligns with federal standards and local regulations, reflecting the government's commitment to infrastructure upgrades while adhering to safety and compliance mandates.
