Attention: Martin Wood Vice President
SUBJECT: Proposed Lincoln Yards South
Water Main Installation by Others, Resident Engineering Services, Valve Operations, & Water Quality Services BES Project No. 14-09:071.07 OUC File No. VD-102775
Mr. Wood:
This correspondence is in response to an Office of Underground Coordination transmittal for the proposed street dedication and subdivision for Lincoln Yards South Subdivision. This correspondence is subsequent to the previously signed correspondence dated April 22, 2021 regarding the vacation of N Throop Street, a copy of which is attached. This letter supersedes the letter dated April 23. 2021.
The proposed development consists of conceptual roadway reconstruction, vacation and dedication plans for the subject project. Fleet Portfolio, LLC shall submit final engineering plans for the overall project to the Department of Water Management (DWM) for review and approval prior to the start of construction. Upon review of the final engineering plans, additional DWM involvement may be required for the overall project, resulting in additional costs to Fleet Portfolio, LLC.
Department of Water Management - Water Section:
In order to accommodate the subject project, the Department of Water Management (DWM) will allow Fleet Portfolio LLC's contractor to install the following proposed water facilities:
Approximately 850 feet of 24-inch water main in W Willow Street, from N Elston Avenue
to Future N Throop Street
• Approximately 900 feet of 16-inch water main in Future N Throop Street, from W Concord Place to N Willow Street
Approximately 180 feet of 12-inch water main in W Wabansia Avenue, from N Throop Street West to Future N Throop Street
Approximately 180 feet of 8-inch water main in W Willow Street from Future N Throop Street to N Throop Street West
* Approximately 900 feet of 24-inch water main in Future Throop Street from N Willow Street to W Cortland Street, going under the North Branch of the Chicago River
Page 2
Fleet Portfolio, LLC April 30, 2021
This Department will perform the connections to the existing water mains in N Elston Avenue, W Willow Street, W Wabansia Avenue, W Cortland Street, and W Concord Place as well as provide resident engineering services, valve operations, and water quality services for the above-mentioned work. The contractor will be responsible for: obtaining all applicable permits, excavation/OSHA shoring, backfilling/compaction, restoration to CDOT standards, and all ductile iron pipe necessary for the connections. The DWM cannot and will not make ANY connections until: 1) as-built drawings for the developer-installed pipe have been reviewed and approved by DWM, and 2) the rights-of-way with the developer-installed pipe have been dedicated to the City. Only after the completion of these two items will the DWM make the connections.
In order to accommodate the proposed 24-inch water main installation in W Willow Street by Fleet Portfolio LLC's contractor, the DWM must relocate three (3) existing fire hydrants. The DWM will be responsible for excavation and backfill of the excavated areas after construction, but Fleet Portfolio LLC's contractor shall be responsible for final restoration. All new curb installation adjacent to fire hydrants must be painted 'safety yellow' for 15 feet on each side ofthe fire hydrant except where the 15-foot dimension intersects a crosswalk, driveway or similar feature.
The estimated cost for the DWM to perform the above-mentioned work is $292,770.00. Please note that this estimate is based on current rates for labor (straight time), material, equipment, and overhead charges, but actual costs will be submitted for payment upon completion of the work. Should it be determined that the fire hydrants cannot be installed at the proposed location, Fleet Portfolio LLC will be responsible for all additional costs associated with the water main connections and relocating the fire hydrants.
In the event Fleet Portfolio is unable to complete the water main installations in W Willow Street, W Wabansia Avenue and Future N Throop Street ("Water Main Installations"), a deposit is required that will allow DWM to complete the work. The required deposit amount is $7,290,000.00. This estimate is based on current rates for labor, materials, equipment, and overhead charges, but actual costs will be billed to Fleet Portfolio upon DWM's completion ofthe work.
Fleet Portfolio shall provide the DWM with an irrevocable, unconditional letter of credit ("Letter of Credit") in the amount of $7,290,000.00, for the Water Main Installation deposit required herein, and in the form of the Letter of Credit, all as set forth in the Agreement Regarding Temporary Easement For DWM Facilities ("Agreement").
Additionally, One (1) certified check in the amount of $292,770.00 for the DWM connections at five (5) locations and relocation of three (3) existing fire hydrants, as set forth herein, payable to the City of Chicago, must be hand delivered to the Department of Buildings, Plumbing Permit and Plan Section, Room 906, City Hall, 121 N LaSalle Street, Chicago, with a copy of this letter.
Fleet Portfolio LLC's contractor installing the new 8-inch, 12-inch, 16-inch, and 24-inch water mains shall perform the following:
Submit a complete list of the shop drawings (submittals) for all water main materials to be used to complete the water main installation to the Force Account Construction Manager at FACM@ctrwater.net for review. Once the list is approved, the shop drawings
Page 3
Fleet Portfolio, LLC April 30, 2021
(submittals) shall be sent at least 60 days prior to starting the work to the Force Account Construction Manager at FACM@ctrwater.net for review.
It is required that the Force Account Construction Manager be contacted at FACM@ctrwater.net two weeks prior to the anticipated construction date so a resident engineer can be assigned to the project.
Obtain a "B-Permit" prior to construction from the City of Chicago, Department of Buildings; Plumbing Permit and Plan Section, City Hall, 121 N LaSalle Street, Room 906, (312) 744-7063.
Contact the Plumbing Permit and Plan Section of the Department of Buildings regarding any proposed water service installations.
Submit as-built drawings. The as-built drawings should be submitted to the Force Account Construction Manager at FACM@ctrwater.net . The as-built drawings must also include the materials used and dimensions of all underground work that is required for IEPA compliance. The DWM wilt not perform the source and final connections until as-built drawings are reviewed and approved by this Department.
Please forward all the CAD files and any resource/reference files for this project electronically to Susan McKee at Susan.McKee@ctrwater.net so that they can be utilized to create the water main adjustment plans.
The proposed street improvements will be located above existing water facilities located within the subject project limits. This Department requires unrestricted access to its facilities at all times. Should the DWM require access to its facilities, it will not be responsible for any costs or work for restoration of the proposed street improvements (beyond typical pavement, sidewalk, and hydroseed restoration), including but not limited to, special features, planters, landscaping or structures.
There are existing valve basin frames and lids, water shut-off/valve boxes, and meter vaults within the proposed reconstruction limits, it is requested that any vertical adjustment that may be required to these facilities be incorporated into the contract plans and specifications, and the work is to be performed by Fleet Portfolio, LLC's contractor. It is also requested that the final payment to the contractor be withheld until this Department has inspected and found the adjusted facilities acceptable. Please contact Mr. Albert Wtorkowski of the Department of Water Management, at Albert.Wtorkowski@cityofchicago.org , in order to schedule the final inspection of any adjusted water facilities.
There are various water mains and appurtenances within the limits of this project. All proposed underground facilities must be installed in such a manner to provide the following required clearances: The minimum vertical clearance (edge-to-edge) from all water mains is 18 inches. For feeder mains (water mains 16-inches and larger), the minimum horizontal clearance (edge-to-edge) is five (5) feet, and for grid mains (water mains less than 16-inches), the minimum horizontal clearance (edge-to-edge) is three (3) feet. No proposed above ground facility (tree, planter box, light pole, etc.) can be closer than five (5) feet (edge-to-edge) from a water main or closer than three (3) feet (edge-to-edge) from a water service. Should the DWM require access to its facilities, it will not be responsible for the costs to remove or support any above ground structures adjacent to its facilities.
Page 4
Fleet Portfolio, LLC April 30, 2021
There will be multiple existing fire hydrants installed within the project's limits. In no case shall the installation of any proposed facility be closer than five (5) feel from a fire hydrant or fire hydrant lead.
If construction requires the use of water from a City fire hydrant, or adjustments or repairs are required to any City sewer facilities in proximity to the project site, permits must be obtained from the Department of Water Management, Water and Sewer Sections.
Proposed trees must not be planted above or within five (5) feet of the exterior pipe wall for all water mains 24-inch in diameter and larger. This 5-foot rule excludes mains that are separated from the tree by a hardscape feature or other root growth limiting conditions such as water mains located in the street.
This Department discourages tree planting over water mains that are less than 24-inches in diameter located in the parkway, but if necessary, will allow trees with a maximum mature height of 30 feet and a maximum mature root depth of 2% feet. Potential plantings that meet this requirement include the following:
Ornamental shrubs or bushes meeting the mature height and mature root depth stated above.
Flowers or other non-woody herbaceous plants.
Above ground, removable planting containers that can be moved by construction equipment in the event that water main repair is required.
Existing trees planted above water mains that do not meet these requirements do not need to be removed. However, if such existing trees are removed, all proposed trees installed in their place must meet the above mentioned requirements. Should it be necessary for the DWM to access any of its facilities, the Department shall only be responsible for typical pavement, sidewalk, and hydroseed restoration.
All new sower installations must meet IEPA separation requirements for water and sewer pipes. All proposed/replaced sewer laterals from catch basins/inlets, sewer mains, and private drains {collectively known as "sewer facilities") that are parallel to water mains, services or fire hydrant leads (collectively known as "water facilities") that are less than 18 inches below the water facility and have less than 10 feet of horizontal separation from the outside edge of the water facility must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility. Additionally, all sewer facilities that cross perpendicularly below water facilities with less than 18 inches vertical separation must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility. If any sewer facility crosses perpendicularly above a water facility, then the sewer facility shall be at least 18 inches above the water facility and the sewer facility must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility. Sewer laterals that require ductile iron/water main quality pipe shall be ductile iron/water main quality pipe from the catch basin to a point 10 feet beyond the edge of the water facility.

Fleet Portfolio, LLC April 30, 2021
Extreme caution is to be taken to ensure that no facility owned and maintained by this Department is damaged during construction. If damage occurs to any facilities, Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be held responsible for the cost of repairing or replacing them.
Please note that the details described above are valid for 90 days from the date of this letter, after which time, Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be responsible for re-submitting plans to this Department for review and revision of the estimate of cost, as needed. Failure to comply with the provisions in this correspondence may result in additional expenses to the proposed project to verify that all work conforms to the DWM's standards.
If there are any questions regarding the water facilities, please contact Angela Krueger at Angela.Krueger@cityofchicago.org .

Attention: Martin Wood Vice President
SUBJECT: Proposed Street Vacation
Lincoln Yards South Subdivision
N Throop Street - W Wabansia Avenue to W Concord Place BES Project No. 14-09:071.07 OUC File No. VD-102773
Mr. Wood:
This correspondence is in response to an Office of Underground Coordination request for the proposed street vacation for the subject project.
The proposed development consists of conceptual roadway reconstruction, vacation and dedication plans for the subject project. Fleet Portfolio, LLC shall submit final engineering plans for the overall project to the Department of Water Management (DWM) for review and approval prior to the start of construction. Upon review of the final engineering plans, additional DWM involvement may be required in the overall project, resulting in additional costs to Fleet Portfolio, LLC. The installation of new water mains to'serve the subdivision will be addressed under OUC File No. VD-102755, BES Project No. 14-09:071.07, to follow under separate cover. This - correspondence only addresses the vacation of N Throop Street.
The Department of Water Management - Water Section
To accommodate the proposed vacation of N Throop Street from W Wabansia Avenue to W Concord Place, the DWM must abandon the following existing water mains:
Approximately 577 feet of 12-inch water main located at approximately 25 feet EWL of N Throop Street
Approximately 108 feet of 12-inch water main located at approximately 13 feet SNL of W Wabansia Avenue
In order to accommodate the above-mentioned abandonments, the following additional existing water main adjustments are required:
Remove two (2) existing fire hydrants and associated fire hydrant leads
Abandon two (2) existing valve basins by removing the frames and lids and filling the basins with backfill material CA-16
Abandon one (1) existing water service on the western frontage of N Throop Street. Fleet Portfolio, LLC's contractor will be responsible for the abandonment of appurtenances (valve box/valve basin).
Page 2
Fleel Portfolio, LLC April 22, 2021
The scope of this Department's involvement is limited to excavation, water main pipe work, backfill, valve operations, engineering services, and water quality services, at an estimated cost of $60,900.00. Please note that this estimate is based on current rates for labor (regular time), material, equipment and overhead charges, but actual costs will be submitted for payment upon completion of the work. The DWM will leave a concrete cap over the excavated areas and Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be responsible for final restoration.
The existing water mains in N Throop Street and W Wabansia Avenue are not fully amortized. The total unamortizated cost for the 12-inch water main in N Throop Street and the 12-inch water main in W Wabansia Avenue is $7,298.38.
Two (2) separate certified checks in the amounts of $60,900.00 and $7,298.38, payable to the City of Chicago, must be hand delivered to the Department of Buildings, Plumbing Permit and Plan Section, 121 North LaSalle Street, Room 906, Chicago, Illinois, 60602, with a copy of this letter.
It is required lhat the Force Account Construction Manager be contacted at FACM@ctrwater.net two (2) weeks prior to the anticipated construction date so a DWM crew can be assigned to the project.
The minimum vertical clearance (edge-to-edge) from all water mains is 18 inches. For feeder mains (water mains 16-inches and larger), the minimum horizontal clearance (edge-to-edge) is five (5) feet, and for grid mains (water mains less than 16-inches), the minimum horizontal clearance (edge-to-edge) is three (3) feet. No proposed above ground facility (tree, planter box, light pole, etc.) can be closer than five (5) feet (edge-to-edge) from a water main or closer than three (3) feet (edge-to-edge) from a water service. Should the DWM require access to its facilities, it will not be responsible for the costs to remove or support any above ground structures adjacent to its facilities.
Any traffic and pedestrian protection structures such as canopies, scaffolding, jersey walls, construction barricades, etc., which are located within 10 feet of water main facilities will restrict this Department's continuous access to its facilities for maintenance or repair work. Therefore,
should this Department require access to its existing facilities, Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be
responsible for either removing the traffic and pedestrian protection structures or performing any necessary excavation required to provide this Department safe access to its existing facilities within 24-hour notice. Traffic and pedestrian protection structures must be installed to allow for complete accessibility to all DWM facilities, including fire hydrants, valve basins, sewer manholes, and catch basins.
All sewer installations must meet IEPA separation requirements for water and sewer pipes. All proposed/replaced sewer laterals from catch basins/inlets, sewer mains, and private drains (collectively known as "sewer facilities") that are parallel to water mains, services or fire hydrant leads (collectively known as "water facilities") that are less than 18 inches below the water facility and have less than 10 feet of horizontal separation from the outside edge of the water facility must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility.
Page 3
Fleet Portfolio, LLC April 22, 2021
Additionally, all sewer facilities that cross perpendicularly below water facilities with less than 18 inches vertical separation must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility. If any sewer facility crosses perpendicularly above a water facility, then the sewer facility shall be at least 18 inches above the water facility and the sewer facility must be made out of ductile iron/water main quality pipe for 10 feet on either side of the outside edge of the water facility. Sewer laterals that require ductile iron/water main quality pipe shall be ductile iron/water main quality pipe from the catch basin to a point 10 feet beyond the edge of the water facility.
Proposed trees must not be planted within five (5) feet of the exterior pipe wall for all water mains 24-inch in diameter and larger. This 5-foot rule excludes mains that are separated from the tree by a hardscape feature or other root growth limiting conditions such as water mains located in the street.
This Department discourages tree planting over water mains that are less than 24-inches in diameter located in the parkway, but if necessary will allow trees with a maximum mature height of 30 feet and a maximum mature root depth of 214 feet. Potential plantings that meet this requirement include the following:
Ornamental shrubs or bushes meeting the mature height and mature root depth discussed above.
Flowers or other non-woody herbaceous plants.
Above ground, movable planting containers that can be relocated by the owner of the plantings in the event that access to the water main is required.
Existing trees planted above water mains that do not meet these requirements do not need to be removed. However, if such existing trees are removed, all proposed trees installed in their place must meet the above-mentioned requirements. Should it be necessary for the DWM to access any of its facilities, the Department shall only be responsible for typical pavement, sidewalk, and hydroseed restoration.
In no case shall the installation of any proposed facility be closer than five (5) feet from a fire hydrant or fir© hydrant lead. All new curb installation adjacent to fire hydrants must be painted 'safety yellow' for 15 feet on each side of the fire hydrant except where the 15 foot dimension intersects a crosswalk, driveway or similar feature.
If construction requires the use of water from a City fire hydrant, or adjustments or repairs are required to any City sewer facilities in proximity to the project site, permits must be obtained from the Department of Water Management, Water and Sewer Sections.
Extreme caution is to be taken to ensure that no facility owned and maintained by this Department is damaged during construction. If damage occurs to any facilities, Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be held responsible for the cost of repairing or replacing them.
Please note that the details described above are valid for 90 days from the date of this letter, after which time, Fleet Portfolio, LLC will be responsible for re-submitting plans to this Department for review and revision of the estimate of cost, as needed. Failure to comply with the provisions in this correspondence may result in additional expenses to the proposed project to verify that all work conforms to DWM's standards.

Re: Proposed Street Vacation Ordinance 2HFor: Lincoln Yards South
Vacation of N. Throop Street between W. Concord Place and W. Wabansia Avenue
OUC File No. VD-102773 M&P Project No. 32-02-20-3939 Water Atlas Page 204 Sewer Atlas Page 40-1-20
Dear Mr. Kaiayil:
This letter is in response to your inquiry concerning the proposed vacation. After reviewing our records, we have determined the following:
I) The Department of Water Management - Water Section
There is approximately 679 feet of 12-inch water main with two hydrants installed in 1935 and 1961 within the proposed vacation.
For the vacation to be approved by the Water Section, this water main must be abandoned per the following requirements:
For the water main and hydrant abandonment, the DWM will perform all work to disconnect the abandoned main from the water main system except restoration.
The estimated cost for the DWM to perform its scope of work is $60,900.00. This estimate is based on current rates for labor (straight time), material, equipment and overhead charges, but actual costs will be submitted for payment upon completion of the work.
All water services no longer in use must be pennanently terminated as part of the proposed development by permit per DWM Standards.
Because the existing water main cannot be located within private property (the vacated street), a temporary easement must be put in place to protect the water main. See Section III of this letter for easement requirements. The temporary easement will be released once the water main has been abandoned.
OUC File No. VD-102773 April 6, 2021 Page 2 of 3
The existing 12-inch water mains are not fully amortized. The total fixed unamortized cost for this existing 12-inch water main abandonment is $7,298.38.
Detailed instructions for payment of the estimated costs in the amount of $68,198.38 ($60,900.00 + $7,298.38) will follow under separate cover.
For questions regarding water facilities, please contact Andrew McFarland at andre w. mcfarland @ city ofchicago. org.
The Department of Water Management - Sewer Section
Based on sewer records, there is a 36-inch public sewer on N Throop St between W Wabansia Avenue and W Concord Place, flowing south entering the proposed area to be vacated. This 36-inch sewer main is serving areas along N Throop Si including upstream of the area to be vacated. This 36-inch sewer main must be retained and maintained until the new relocated sewer is built by the beneficiary of the vacated ROW and accepted by the City as a part of sewer relocation work into new dedicated public ROW. The Sewer Section will approve the proposed street vacation, provided the beneficiary must agree with the conditions in Section III of this letter.
If there are any questions regarding the sewer facilities, contact Sid Osakada at Sid.Osakada@CityofChicago.org or Anupam Verma at Anupam.Verma@CityofChicago.org .
The Department of Water Management - Temporary Easement Requirements The temporary easement is subject to the following conditions:
There must be a temporary easement over the entire width and length of the vacated ROW for the existing water and sewer mains.
There must be a minimum forty (40) feet of vertical clearance from ground level to provide access to construction machinery that would be necessary in the event of a break or if maintenance or relocation were required in the future.
The City of Chicago Department of Water Management must have continuous 24-hour access without any obsuuetions like feuces or bollards to the area where the temporary easement is required.
All proposed plans for improvements must be submitted to and approved by the Department of Water Management prior to construction.
The beneficiary of the vacated ROW where a temporary easement is required must be responsible for the repair, renewal or replacement of any physical improvements on the vacated area which may be damaged in connection with the maintenance and repair, or replacement of the sewer main. Examples of improvements include, but are not limited to the landscape island, the private drainage system, lighting, pavement and sidewalks.
vi. The beneficiary of the vacated ROW where a temporary easement is required must be responsible for completely removing any obstacle for the maintenance and repair, or replacement of the water and sewer mains.
OUC File No. VD-102773 April 6, 2021 Page 3 of 3
The beneficiary of the vacated ROW where a temporary easement is required must follow Landscape requirements per Department of Water Management requirements for Existing Facilities Protection.
Any adjustments to the DWM's facilities in the vacated ROW where a temporary easement is required must be paid by tbe beneficiary.
ix. The temporary easement on the area to be vacated could be released after the existing
water main is abandoned and a new sewer is built by the beneficiary within dedicated
ROW that replaces the function of the sewer within the vacated ROW and accepted by
the DWM.
x. Any temporary easement document must be reviewed and approved by the DWM.
Very truly yours,
Andrea rIc Chefg, Ph.D., P.E. Acting Commissioner
