Honor Farm Maintenance Program
The kitchen grease trap shall be checked regularly, and
emptied whenever it is a~roximately 2/3 full or once a
week, whichever is least.
The septic tank shall be inspected every 6 months to check
sludge and scum levels.
The septic tank shall be pumped empty whenever the scum depth
reaches 9 inches, or the sludge depth reaches 36 inches.
When pumped, the septic tank must not be disenfected, washed,
or scrubbed. Caution: septic tanks are full of toxic gasses;
do not enter the tank without a proper air supply, and a
safety rope.
Materials not readily decomposed must not be dumped into the
system (e.g. sanitary napkins, coffee grounds, cooking fats,
bones, wet-strength towels, disposable diapers, facial
tissues, cigarette butts, etc.) They will not degrade in the
tank, and can clog inlets, outlets, and the disposal system.
Periodically, plumbing fixtures should be checked for leaks.
The leaks should be repaired immediately because they add
substantial water to the system.

EXPLANATION
A. General:
This series of explanations is provided to assist the
user of these specifications and associated Contract
Documents to more readily understand the format, lan-
guage, implied requirements, and similar conventions of
the content. None of these explanations shall be
interpreted to modify the substance of the specified
requirements

B. Specific' ~ion production:
Portions of these specifications have been produced by
editing master specifications and may contain minor
inconsistencies. Such deviations are a normal result
of this production technique, and no other meaning
shall be implied or permitted.
Format:
The format of principal portions of these specifica-
tions can be generally described as follows, although
other portions may not fully comply and no particular
significance shall be attached to such compliance or
non-compliance:
For convenience, the basic unit of specification
text is a "Section," each unit of which is named
and numbered. Sections are organized as the
present industry consensus on uniform organization
and sequencing of construction specifications.
The section title is not intended to limit the
meaning or content of the section, nor to be fully
descriptive of the requirements specified therein,
nor to be an integral part of the text. Section
and Division identification is contained' in the
left hand portion of the "header" at the top of the
page.
-25-
Page nu~~ ~ring:
Pages are numbered independently and sequentially with-
in each section, and a new sequence of numbers begins
with the beginning of each new section.
E. The three part section:
Each section of the specification has
into three (3) "parts" for uniformity
They are:

and convenience.
PART 1 GENERAL
PART 2 PRODUCTS
PART 3 EXECUTION
The subdivisions and their titles do not limit the
meaning of, and are not an integral part of, the text
which specifies requirements. In some instances, one
or the other of these parts may not be used, in which
case it will be so noted as "not used." In other
instances an additional part, PART 4 APPENDIX, may be
employed to convey tables and other variable informa-
tion supplementing the standard text.
F. Specification types:
The techniques or types of specification used to record
the requirements varies thoughout the text, and may
-26-
includef~ypes commonly recognized~s_ "prescriptive ,"
"generic descriptive," "compliance with standards
(reference)," "performance," "open," "open multi-pro-
duct," "closed single product," proprietary," or a com-
bination of these.
G. Trades, names:
The use of trade titles such as "carpentry," and
degrees of expertise such as "journeyman (men),"
implies neither that the work is required to be per-
formed by the specific trade, nor that the level of
expertise indicated is recognized as peculiar to mem-
bership or nonmembership in any trade or industry asso-
ciation or organization, nor that the specified
requirements apply exclusively to work by tradesmen of that
corresponding generic name.
