The Contractor shall perform everything required to be performed by Contractor in the Contract Documents, shall provide and furnish all labor, tools and equipment, and shall furnish and deliver all materials not specifically stated in the Contract Documents as being furnished by the Owner, to complete all the work necessary to complete the Project in Millcreek, State of Utah in the best and most workmanlike manner, and in strict conformity with the provisions of this Agreement. The plans and specifications and the proposals are hereby made a part of the agreement as fully and to the same effect as if the same had been set forth at length in the body of this Agreement. In the event of inconsistencies within or among parts of this Agreement, the Contract Documents or among Contract Documents, this Agreement, and applicable standards, codes, and references to previous versions of the Manual of Standard Specifications or Manual of Standard Plans, the Contractor shall provide the ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 51 better quality or greater quantity of work; or (ii) comply with the more stringent requirement; either or both in accordance with Landscape Architect’s interpretation.

PART 2 TIME AND MONEY CONSIDERATIONS 2.1 CONTRACT PRICE A. The Contract Price includes the cost of the Work specified in the Contract Documents, and the cost of all bonds, insurance, permits, fees, and all charges, expenses or assessments of whatever kind or character. The Owner shall pay the Contractor, as full consideration for the performance of this contract, the contract bid price per item as shown in the proposal, for the quantities of work actually performed and accepted. B. The Contract Price is: C. Dollars $ 2.2 CONTRACT TIME A. The work shall commence on the date set forth in the written Notice to Proceed from the Owner or its agent to Contractor and shall be completed and ready for Owner’s substantial completion inspection within 14 calendar days from the date of such notice. B. Any time specified in work sequences in the Summary of Work (Section 01 11 10) shall be a part of the Contract Time. 2.3 PUNCH LIST TIME A. The Work will be complete and ready for final payment within 30 calendar days after the date Contractor receives Landscape Architect's Final Inspection Punch List unless exemptions of specific items are granted by Landscape Architect in writing or an exception has been specified in the Contract Documents. ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 53 B. Permitting the Contractor to continue and finish the Work or any part of the Work after the time fixed for its completion, or after the date to which the time for completion may have been extended, whether or not a new completion date is established, shall in no way operate as a waiver on the part of the Owner of any of Owner's rights under this Agreement. 2.4 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES A. Late Completion: Time is the essence of the Contract Documents. Contractor agrees that Owner will suffer damage or financial loss if the Work is not completed on time or within any time extensions allowed in accordance with Part 12 of the General Conditions (Document 00 72 00). Contractor and Owner agree that proof of the exact amount of any such damage or loss is difficult to determine. Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof of damage or specific financial loss for late completion, Contractor agrees to pay to Owner the amount of $1,000 for each calendar day that extends after the Contract Time until the Work is accepted as Substantially Complete as provided in Article 14.5 of the General Conditions. B. Survey Monuments: No land survey monument will be disturbed or moved until Landscape Architect has been properly notified and the Landscape Architect's surveyor has referenced the survey monument for resetting. The parties agree that upon such an unauthorized disturbance it is difficult to determine the damages from such a disturbance, and the parties agree that Contractor will pay as liquidated damages the sum of $1,000 to cover such damage and expense. C. Interruption of Public Services: No interruption of public services shall be caused by Contractor, its agents or employees, without the Landscape Architect's and Owner’s prior written approval. Owner and Contractor agree that in the event Owner suffers damages from such interruption, liquidated damages as stipulated above shall not be deemed to be a limitation upon Owner's right to recover the full amount of damages. D. Deduct Damages from Moneys Owed Contractor: Owner shall be entitled to deduct and retain liquidated damages out of any money which may be due or become due the Contractor. To the extent that the liquidated damages exceed any amounts that would otherwise be due the Contractor, the Contractor shall be liable for such amounts and shall return such excess to the Owner. 2.5 RETAINAGE A. Retainage is Owner's Option: Owner may, in its sole discretion, retain five percent of the value of all Work done and materials or equipment supplied as part security for the fulfillment of the Construction Contract by the Contractor. If, in Landscape Architect's opinion, the Work is proceeding in accordance with ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 54 Contractor's approved progress schedule, and all progress schedule submittals are current and up to date, and all required payrolls, Shop Drawings, and miscellaneous submittals are current and up to date, the Owner may choose not to withhold retainage. 1. Reducing the Retainage: As the Work nears completion and solely at the Landscape Architect's discretion, the Owner may reduce the retainage to an amount more in line with the Work actually remaining. 2. Retainage Held Until Final Payment: The Owner reserves the right to retain all amounts previously withheld or due the Contractor, including liquidated damages, until all Punch List items are complete. However, at Landscape Architect's sole option, Landscape Architect may authorize the release of up to all retained amounts except any liquidated damages and double Landscape Architect's best estimate of the Contractor's cost to complete all remaining Punch List items. B. Interest: Except for money retained for items not provided or installed in accordance with the Contract Documents, any money retained by the Owner will be placed in an interest-bearing account held by the Owner in its Utah State Treasury Pool. The interest accrued thereon shall be the only interest paid to Contractor on the money retained and will be due and payable to the Contractor when the retained monies are paid. 2.6 PAYMENT PROCEDURES A. Progress Payments: Contractor shall submit Applications for Payment in accordance with Part 14 of the General Conditions (Document 00 72 00) and Section 01 29 00 (Payment Procedure). Payment will become due or payable only for items provided or installed by Contractor. If required by the Owner, any request or application by the Contractor for a partial payment shall be accompanied and supported by data establishing payment or satisfaction of all Contractor obligations for payroll, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness, with such data establishment to be evidenced by receipts, releases and waivers of lien, arising out of the contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated as acceptable and satisfactory by the Owner. The Owner may require such data, including but not limited to, and executed, completed lien waiver and release from all subcontractors, lower-tier subcontractors and suppliers. The submission of these items, if requested by the Owner with the Contractor’s application or request for a partial payment shall constitute a condition precedent to the Contractor’s right to any such partial payment, and any particular application or request for partial payment submitted without these items, if so requested by the Owner, shall be deemed incomplete. ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 55 1. Withholding Payment: Owner reserves the right to withhold payment from Contractor for noncompliance with any provision of the Contract Documents. 2. Price Adjustments: Owner will consider making partial payment to the Contractor for certain nonconforming work in advance of any negotiated settlement reached between the Contractor and the Owner, provided the Contractor requests in writing that this be done. Contractor agrees that any such payments made by the Owner are "payments in advance" and that any money which becomes due when the final settlement is negotiated will not constitute payments "withheld" or "retained" under State law. B. Final Payment: After completion of all Work and Punch List items, Owner shall pay the Contract Price due after deducting therefrom all previous payments, unit price quantity adjustments, penalties, liquidated damages, and other amounts to be retained. All prior progress payments shall be subject to correction in the final payment. The final payment shall not be due and payable until the expiration of 30 days from approval of the request for final payment of Contractor by Landscape Architect and Owner. Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of the contract sum, shall be paid by the Owner to the Contractor when the work has been completed, the contract fully performed, and a final certificate for payment has been issued by the Landscape Architect. Neither the final payment nor the remaining retainage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the Owner through the Landscape Architect, an affidavit that all payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the work for which the Owner might in any way be responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied, consent of surety to final payment, and if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of all such obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens arising out of the contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the Owner. If after substantial completion of the work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the Contractor or by the issuance of change orders affecting final completion, and the Landscape Architect so confirms, the Owner shall, upon application by the Contractor and certification by the Landscape Architect and without terminating the contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the contract documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of the Surety of the payment of the balance due for that portion of the work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Landscape Architect prior to certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions governing payments as heretofore set forth, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims. The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the Owner except those arising from: unsettled liens; faulty or ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 56 defective work; failure of the work to comply with the requirements of the contract documents; or terms of any special warranties required by the contract documents. The acceptance of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the Contractor except those previously made in writing and identified by the Contractor as unsettled at the time of the final application for payment. All provisions of this agreement, including without limitation those establishing obligations and procedures, shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the making or acceptance of final payment. 1. Submittal: Final payment shall not be made until the Contractor has delivered and Landscape Architect has accepted all submittals specified in Article 14.8 of the General Conditions (Document 00 72 00). 2. Owner Released From Claims: The payment and acceptance of the final Contract Price due and the adjustment and payment for any Work done in accordance with any alterations of the same, shall release the Owner from any and all claims of Contractor on account of Work performed under the Contract Documents or any Modification thereof, except for those claims specifically agreed to as reserved and unresolved by the Owner. 2.7 EXTRA WORK A. No money will be paid to the Contractor for any additions, deletions or revisions in the Work as stipulated in Article 10.1 of the General Conditions (Document 00 72 00), unless a contract Modification for such has been made in writing and validly executed by the Owner and Contractor. PART 3 COVENANTS 3.1 ASSIGNMENT NOT BINDING WITHOUT WRITTEN CONSENT A. Owner and Contractor agree no assignment of any right or interest in the Contract Documents will be made without the written consent of the Owner and the Contractor. No assignment will release or discharge the Owner or the Contractor from any duty or responsibility under the Contract Documents unless specifically stated to the contrary in any written consent to an assignment. B. Contractor shall make no assignment of money that is due without the Owner's written consent (except to the extent that the effect of this restriction may be limited by Law or Regulation). ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 57 3.2 BINDING TERMS A.

In General: 1. Unless a decision shall be held by an appropriate court of law to have been procured by fraud or to be arbitrary and capricious or so grossly erroneous as necessarily to imply bad faith, any factual decision made under this Article shall be final and binding in any suit or action arising under this Construction Contract, including any actions by Contractor or others against Owner or any of Owner's agents, consultants, or employees. 2. Compliance with provisions of this Article shall be a condition precedent prior to any legal action by the Contractor or any of Contractor's Subcontractors and Suppliers against Owner or any of Owner's agents, consultants, or employees. 3. The provisions of this Article shall not preclude or limit judicial review of issues of law. B. Disputes Not Related to the Guarantee of the Work: Any dispute arising under the Construction Contract concerning a question of fact, not related to the guarantee of the Work (Part 13 of the General Conditions (Document 00 72 00)), which is not disposed of by contract Modification shall be decided pursuant to the following procedure. 1. Any decision by Landscape Architect interpreting the requirements of the Contract Documents may be appealed in writing to the Landscape Architect.

B. Work During Appeal: Notwithstanding the pendency of any protest or appeal provided above, Contractor shall, if so ordered by Landscape Architect, proceed with the Work under the Contract Documents according to Landscape Architect's direction and according to the decision on any appeal. The existence of a claim or protest shall not excuse Contractor from the requirements of the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, the Contract Time. C. Appeals of Termination or Suspension: Any decision of Owner to terminate or suspend the Work shall not be subject to the provisions of this Article. 3.5 ATTORNEY’S FEES. A. In the event that either party institutes any action or proceeding against the other relating to the breach of any term of this agreement, then the unsuccessful party in such action or proceeding agrees to reimburse the successful party for the reasonable expenses of such action including reasonable attorney fees, incurred therein by the successful party. 3.6 CONTRACTOR’S REPRESENTATIONS. ---PAGE BREAK--- Agreement 00 52 00 S I PAGE 59 The Contractor represents and warrants the following to the Owner (in addition to any other representations and warranties contained in the Contract Documents), as an inducement to the Owner to execute this Agreement, which representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any termination of this Agreement, and the final completion of the Work: A. that it and its Subcontractors are financially solvent, able to pay all debts as they mature, and possessed of sufficient working capital to complete the Work and perform all obligations hereunder; B. that it is able to furnish the plant, tools, materials, supplies, equipment, and labor required to complete the Work and perform its obligations hereunder; C. that it is authorized to do business in the State of Utah and properly licensed by all necessary governmental and public and quasi-public authorities having jurisdiction over it and over the Work and the Project; D. that its duly authorized representative has visited the site of the Project, familiarized himself with the local and special conditions under which the Work is to be performed, and correlated his observations with the requirements of the Contract Documents; and E. that it possesses a high level of experience and expertise in the business administration, construction, construction management, and superintendence of projects of the size, complexity, and nature of this particular Project, and it will perform the Work with the care, skill and diligence of such a contract.

The Contractor shall, for the protection and benefit of the Indemnitees and the Contractor and as part of the Contractor’s efforts to satisfy the obligations set forth herein, procure, pay for, and maintain in full force and effect, at all times during the performance of the Work until final acceptance of the Work or for such duration as required, policies of insurance issued by a responsible carrier or carriers acceptable to the Owner, and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner, which afford the following coverages: 1. Comprehensive General and Automobile Liability Insurance, including completed operations, blanket contractual and broad form property damage coverage, with the following minimum limits: Personal Injury Liability $2,000,000 each occurrence Property Damage Liability $1,000,000 each occurrence; $2,000,000 aggregate Worker’s Compensation as required by Utah statute 2. All such insurance shall be written on an occurrence basis. Information concerning reduction of coverage shall be furnished by the Contractor 3. All policies and Certificates of Insurance shall expressly provide that no less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice shall be given the Owner in the event of material alteration, cancellation, nonrenewal, or expiration of the coverage contained in such policy or evidenced by such certified copy or Certificate of Insurance. 4. In no event shall any failure of the Owner to receive certified copies or certificates ---PAGE BREAK--- Supplemental General Conditions 00 73 00 S I PAGE 82 of policies as provided herein be construed as a waiver by the Owner or the Landscape Architect of the Contractor’s obligations to obtain insurance pursuant to the provision hereof. The obligation to procure and maintain any insurance required herein is a separate responsibility of the Contractor and independent of the duty to furnish a certified copy or certificate of such insurance policies. 5. When any required insurance, due to the attainment of a normal expiration date or renewal date, shall expire, the Contractor shall supply the Owner with Certificates of Insurance and amendatory riders or endorsements that clearly evidence the continuation of all coverage in the same manner, limits of protection, and scope of coverage as was provided by the previous policy. In the event any renewal or replacement policy, for whatever reason obtained or required, is written by a carrier other than that with whom the coverage was previously placed, or the subsequent policy differs in any way from the previous policy, the Contractor shall also furnish the Owner with a certified copy of the renewal or replacement policy unless the Owner provides the Contractor with prior written consent to submit only a Certificate of Insurance for any such policy. All renewal and replacement policies shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner and written by carriers acceptable to the Owner. 6. The Contractor shall cause each Subcontractor to procure insurance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner and (ii) name the Indemnitees as additional insureds under the Subcontractor’s comprehensive general liability policy. The additional insured endorsement included on the Subcontractor’s comprehensive general liability policy shall state that coverage is afforded the additional insureds with respect to claims arising out of operations performed by or on behalf of the Contractor. If the additional insureds have other insurance that is applicable to the loss, such other insurance shall be on an excess or contingent basis. The amount of the insurer’s liability under this insurance policy shall not be reduced by the existence of such other insurance.

Campaign Contributions Ordinance: Millcreek campaign contributions ordinance prohibits a “contractor” who enters into a contract with Millcreek from making campaign contributions to candidates for Millcreek offices. For purposes of the campaign finance disclosure ordinance, a “contractor” is defined as “any person, business, corporation, or other entity that executes a written agreement with Millcreek for the acquisition or management of goods, services, or property, or the disposal of surplus goods, whether personal, real, or intangible, including all amendments, extensions, or addendums to the existing contract.” B. Limitation on Contributions by Contractors: Any person, business, corporation or other entity that is a contractor with Millcreek is prohibited from making a total of contributions that exceed $100.00 to any candidate for Millcreek office during the term of the contract and during a single election cycle as defined in the ordinance. For purposes of the ordinance, a person or entity shall be considered a contractor and doing business with Millcreek if it is engaged in any contract with Millcreek on the date of the contribution or it has contracted with Millcreek at any time during a one-year period prior to the date of the contribution. Any person, business, corporation or other entity making contributions of $100.00 or more to any Millcreek candidate shall be prohibited from entering into a contract for at least one year after the date the contribution was made. This limitation on campaign contributions applies only to contracts in excess of $10,000 and does not apply to contracts entered into by Millcreek pursuant to existing statewide contracts, small cost purchases, and expedited contracts when Millcreek Council waives the requirements of the campaign finance disclosure ordinance as to that particular expedited contract. C. Penalties: Failure to comply with the Campaign Contributions Ordinance may result in the following penalty: 1. If a contribution or contributions are received from a “contractor” and without a candidate’s knowledge of a violation of Millcreek’s campaign finance disclosure ordinance, the candidate may return the contribution without penalty if the contribution is returned within ten (10) days after the candidate knows of the violation, by way of notification from Millcreek’s Clerk. 2. If any contribution is made in violation of the prohibition on contributions by contractors, any existing Millcreek contract with the contractor may be voided, at the discretion of Millcreek mayor or council. Any contractor who knowingly makes a contribution or contributions in violation of this provision shall be guilty of a class B misdemeanor. ---PAGE BREAK--- Political Contribution Notice 00 73 76 S I PAGE 84 3. If any contribution is made in violation of the prohibition on contributions by contractors, the official to whom that contribution is made must return the contribution. Any elected official who knowingly takes a contribution or contributions in violation of the campaign finance disclosure ordinance and does not return the contribution will be guilty of a class B misdemeanor.

In compliance with Executive Order #2006-1, Millcreek has implemented environmentally responsible procurement practices. Millcreek requires all persons, businesses, corporations and other entities doing business or entering into a contract with Millcreek to comply with all federal, state and local environmental laws, rules and regulations. Compliance with environmental laws, rules and regulations is a relevant factor in evaluating the integrity and responsibility of a business. Millcreek, in its sole discretion, may not solicit proposals from, award contracts to, procure, or otherwise enter into business arrangements with any person, business, corporation or other organization that is non-compliant. If a bidder, vendor or contractor is: suspended, proposed for debarment, debarred, ineligible or excluded from contracting with another government entity due to environmental non-compliance, Millcreek in its sole discretion, may deem the bidder, vendor or contractor non-responsible and decline to award a contract. B. Based on the foregoing, the bidder/vendor/contractor certifies through the act of submitting its bid, that, to the best of its knowledge, neither the bidder/vendor/contractor nor any owner, officer or agent of the bidder/vendor/contractor: 1. is presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or excluded from the award of a contract or purchase by any federal, state or local agency based on a finding, determination, notice of violation or order of environmental non-compliance; 2. is presently indicted or charged by a government entity in a criminal, civil or administrative proceeding with the commission of any offense, violation, or failure to comply with any federal, state, or local environmental law, rule or regulation, indicating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a Millcreek contractor; 3. has, within the last three years, been convicted, or had a civil judgment or administrative order rendered against it for any offense or violation, including but not limited to environmental non-compliance, indicating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a Millcreek contractor; 4. has, within the last three years, had a contract/purchase terminated due to an act or omission, including but not limited to environmental non-compliance, demonstrating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a Millcreek contractor. C. Bidder/vendor/contractor shall require any subcontractor/supplier to disclose in writing, whether at the time of the award of the subcontract, the subcontractor ---PAGE BREAK--- Environmental Compliance Practices 00 73 79 S I PAGE 86 complies with the certification requirements in subparagraphs B.1, B.2, B.3 and B.4 above. D. Bidder/vendor/contractor shall immediately notify Millcreek in writing if, at any time before the award, the bidder/vendor/contractor learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has since become erroneous because of changed circumstances. E. If it is later determined that bidder/vendor/contractor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification under this provision, in addition to other available remedies, Millcreek in its sole discretion, may terminate the contract/purchase for default.

Select a good visible spot in your community or park where you want to install the Pet Waste Station 2. Prior to installation, remove the 1¾” x 1¾” x 4’ portion of the mounting post from the 2” x 2” x 4’ portion of the mounting post before cementing. Insert the larger portion of the mounting post x 2” x approximately 14” into an 18” deep by 8” diameter hole filled with a 40 lb. bag of “ready to use” concrete mix. To stabilize the post while cementing, place a rod, bolt or other device through the two bottom holes, prior to inserting into the ground and cementing. Level the post in a straight vertical position and let concrete dry for at least 12 hours. 3. After the concrete is dry, insert the smaller portion of the post (1¾” x 1¾” x into the larger cemented portion of the post x 2’ x until the first 4 holes are lined up between the two posts. Use two carriage bolts, washers and locknuts to fix the telescopic post in position. The upper bolt in the top overlapping hole, pointing from right to left and the lower bolt in the bottom overlapping hole, pointing from front to back. The total hight above ground with both parts should now be approx. 6” 4. Start by installing the Pet Waste Station on top of the 1¾” post, with the upper hole matching the most upper hole in the square post using the enclosed 2½” bolts, washers and locknuts. Continue installing the Pet Waste Bag Dispenser according to the mounting instructions enclosed with the Dispenser, ensuring that the upper edge of the Dispenser is approximately 1” below the lower edge of the Pet Waste Sign. 5. Install the Steel Trash receptacle through the pre-drilled top oval holes in the back wall of the receptacle and though the square post with the remaining bolts, washers and locknuts, using the 2-3/4 bolt on top and the 2-1/2 bolt below. The upper edge of the trash receptacle must be approx. 12 -1/2 below the lower end of you Aluminum Bag dispenser so that the lid may completely open. The Upper back wall of the trash receptacle is supposed to touch the head of the lower post carriage bolt, which creates some space between the post and the receptacle, allowing the receptacle lid to open from left to right, without touching the post. 6. Insert one of the enclosed Pet Waste Bags into the trash receptacle, folding it over th einterior retainer bands. As with any powder coated steel product constantly exposed to the elements, proper installation and general maintenance will help prevent and minimize corrosion and expand the life of the steel trash receptacle. 7.

COR105341-1101 General Product Information Dimensions 10'10"x9"x9'8" Age group 2 - 12 Play capacity (users) 6 Color options The fun of fundamentals make children play again and again: the Hill Climber invites and supports rappelling up steep hills. The wonderful combination of stemming the feet onto the hill, holding tight to the rope and leaning back, walking upwards is a repeatedly thrilling experience. Apart from being great fun, the combination of movement also provides great gross motor and muscle training. Hands, arms and upper body get trained when gripping the perfectly sized rope. Legs are developed walking up and core muscles are put to work when leaning back, tensioning the core. The motor skill training is intense: the spatial awareness, the sense of balance and the coordination come to full use. This stimulates the overall motor confidence of the child and helps trains abilities like judging distances – important in street traffic.

An embankment slide is especially thrilling and accessible, with entry at the ground level, and a fast sliding path that follows the form of the land. The wide slide increases capacity and social play. When children slide, they train their core muscles, sitting upright while sliding down. This stimulates their trunk stability, important for avoiding back and neck pains – a growing problem in children due to sedentary lifestyles. Sliding additionally trains the child's sense of balance and spatial understanding. These skills are important in navigating the world securely, and are the basis of all motor skills. Developing these skills supports physical confidence in children. Children are especially keen to try the embankment slide over and over again, increasing their physical activity.

The product is best installed by authorized ForeverLawn dealers and installers. Here is a brief summary of the installation process. These guidelines are used for reference and consistency. Critical Tools Base Work • Power circular saw for cutting if using perimeter boards. • Power drill for drilling holes in boards and concrete if necessary. • Concrete drill bit or appropriate size to match anchor if going into concrete. • Drill bit to center drill in boards if using rebar to anchor. • Sledge or mini sledge hammer to pound rebar if using rebar. • Deck screws for tying boards together if needed. • Shovels and wheel barrow for digging/moving the gravel into the area. • Landscape rakes (24”–36” wide) for spreading and leveling the gravel. • Garden hose with nozzle for wetting the stone. • Vibratory plate tamper for compacting the stone. • Hand tamper (10”x10” or larger) for compacting edges and hard to reach places. Cutting/Installation of Grass • Utility knife with many blades (change blades frequently when cutting the grass). • Tape measure. • Sharpie marker (Sharpie Pro) for marking cuts on back of grass. • Pneumatic staple gun only if using boards. • Air compressor and hose. • Hammer if not using boards. Clean Up • Blower. • Push broom. • Dust pan. Critical Supplies • DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass. • Aplix seam tape (micromechanical seaming system). • Pressure treated lumber for perimeter boards if using perimeter boards. • Rebar–typically 1/2” that are 18”–24” in length if using rebar to secure board. • 6” 60D twisted shaft galvanized landscape spikes if not using perimeter boards. ---PAGE BREAK--- [PHONE REDACTED] I foreverlawn.com I DuPont ForeverLawn Installation Guidelines M0530 Rev. 05/19 • Galvanized narrow crown staples 1”x1/4” crown in length if using perimeter boards. • Concrete anchor screws or expanding concrete anchors if attaching boards to concrete. • Gravel (3/4” down to dust)–should be a good mix of smaller particulate and larger stones. • Garbage bags. • Crumb rubber infill. Let’s start by taking a high-level look at the whole process. Seeing the big picture of what is being accomplished will make the detailed steps more understandable. When installing DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass, the area must first be cleared of vegetation, and at a level where a 4” stone base can be installed. Once the area is cleared, we need to define the entire perimeter of the area and determine if boards will be used or not. It is recommended to use boards around the perimeter in commercial applications. You can use boards or just secure the perimeter of the grass with spikes in a residential installation. If using the pressure treated lumber (typically a 2”x4”) it will be installed on edge, not laying flat. When installing DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass using the 6” 60D galvanized twisted shaft landscape spikes, the edge of your stone base will define the perimeter of your installation area. If using perimeter boards, install the boards to define the perimeter before bringing in the gravel. Once the perimeter is defined, gravel will be brought into the area. The gravel should be spread level just a little higher than the top of the edge (as the gravel will settle on compaction). Once completely spread to desired surface contour, the gravel edge should be wetted with a hose and then compacted with a vibratory plate tamper. If the base settles too much, more gravel should be added, and the process repeated. Once the base is done, the grass should be brought into the area and rolled out. Factory edges need to be removed from side of the rolls that will be seamed together. The grass should be laid out like it will be installed, seams lined up, and then the edges at the end of the grass rolls should be cut to fit. Once the grass is properly trimmed, then anchored (in key areas), the seams should be put together and the rolls secured. After the seaming is done, then any remaining unanchored areas should be secured. The grass should be cleaned up with a blower. If there is dirt or debris on the grass or surrounding areas, use a hose to rinse off. Then install the infill and clean up. With that as the backdrop, let’s take a closer look at many of these processes. Define the Area Make sure you know the area where the DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass is going, and that the amount of turf you have will fit. Measure, and remeasure the area. Then, using landscape marking paint, mark out the area that will be installed. ---PAGE BREAK--- [PHONE REDACTED] I foreverlawn.com I DuPont ForeverLawn Installation Guidelines M0530 Rev. 05/19 Ground Clearing Clear the area of sod, stone, mulch, organic debris, etc., down to a consistent 3”–4” below the desired finish level of the DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass. Spraying roots with weed killer may help prevent regrowth in some areas if all the roots were not removed. Typically, the soil (sub-base) will percolate liquids. If the area has poor percolation, it may require more of the soil/base to be removed and/or more (larger) gravel brought in. If doing this, it is also recommended that some type of drainage system be installed to pull the water or liquids out of the area. Perforated drainpipes, and/or other drainage solutions can be installed at the sub-base level. Perimeter Board Installation (Optional) Pressure treated perimeter boards are anchored in order to frame in the area. The DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass is secured to the top edge of the boards. Pressure treated (2”x4”) boards are recommended as they resist degradation over time. The top of the boards should be set to the level where you want the backing of the grass to be. With DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass, this is typically 3/4” below the surrounding area. For example, if going against a sidewalk, the top of the board should be 3/4”–1” below the edge of the sidewalk when installed. When the boards are installed adjacent to concrete (wall, house footer, sidewalk, driveway, etc.), use concrete screws or wedge anchor bolts to secure. Drill through the board into the concrete, then anchor. (In some cases, if required, the perimeter boards can be reduced to a size of 2”x2” when anchoring to concrete). If up against an edge (like a fence) that can be attached to, but isn’t concrete, just screw the boards in with deck screws. When the boards are not being attached to something, we call that free standing. Free standing boards should have holes center drilled through the board (as the board will be standing on the 2” edge). These holes are typically every 2’ on center. Rebar should then be pounded through the hole into the base beneath. Make sure to counter sink the rebar so the metal is not sticking out of the board on top. Gravel Base (aggregate) The type of stone to use will vary based on area or region. Limestone, granite, and basalt have all been used. More important than the type of stone is how it is presented. The stone should be a crushed aggregate stone. The size should be about 3/4” down to dust. This type of stone should be at a depth of about After this larger stone is brought in and compacted, a 1” layer of fines is used to cap the entire installation area creating a smooth finish. ---PAGE BREAK--- [PHONE REDACTED] I foreverlawn.com I DuPont ForeverLawn Installation Guidelines M0530 Rev. 05/19 Once the stone is placed in the area, it needs to be raked and leveled. This is very important, as the grass will reveal the base, not hide it. Make sure the area has the desired contour and is smooth. When satisfied with the layout of the stone, the area should be wetted, and then tamped to 90%–95% compaction using a vibratory plate tamper (use a hand tamper in areas too small for a vibratory plate tamper). A minimum of two passes by vibratory tamper per every 3”–4” of base material is recommended. When compacted, the base needs to be firm. Base material should never be “dirty”. We want to achieve a good base that will be firm, but still drain well. 6” 60D Galvanized Spike Option When not using perimeter boards, the gravel will go to the end of the area. If it is an undefined edge (no wall sidewalk, or other), the gravel will now define the edge. When the grass edge terminates along a soft or exposed edge (existing sod or mulch bed) the existing material should be pulled back so that the DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass dives beneath it. The material from the yard can then be brought back into place after the edges are secured creating a seamless transition from artificial to natural surfacing. DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass Layout With the base complete, it is time to bring the DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass into the area. The DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass comes in 15’ wide rolls. The grass is directional, so the product should always be installed with the pile consistently going in the same direction. Open up the rolls and roll them out in the area. Trimming the Grass and Lining Up Seams DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass is unique in the way that the rows of grass are not visible from the backing. Due to this fact, we recommend a carpet tool called a Crain 303 Loop Pile Carpet Cutter (or similar) with the ForeverLawn bullnose attachment to remove the factory edges. This special nose is important to keep the cutter from cutting the blades. The bullnose attachment is only needed when seaming two panels together side by side. It allows the user to cut the grass consistently staying between rows. Crossing rows of grass in this step will cause your long seams to not line up correctly. If not a seamed edge, just overlap the grass beyond the perimeter and the factory edge will come off when the grass is cut to fit. Once adjacent rolls are trimmed, line up the rolls side by side. The grass should be able to be lined up and the seam essentially invisible. Make sure this is the case. The distance between rows of grass (not the backing) should be about 3/8”. If there is excess backing material that won’t allow this, trim it. Whatever the seam looks like now, is how it will look when finished. When the seam looks good, take some spikes and ---PAGE BREAK--- [PHONE REDACTED] I foreverlawn.com I DuPont ForeverLawn Installation Guidelines M0530 Rev. 05/19 anchor each roll so it doesn’t move. Do this by placing several spikes down the middle of the roll, parallel to the seam. When all adjacent rolls are lined up and anchored, the next step is to trim the ends of the grass (where the grass goes beyond the perimeters). When cutting to an edge, the grass should be marked and cut so the grass comes just short (we’re talking millimeters) of the wall. Do this by rolling the edge of the grass back and pressing the backing up against the edge. Use a permanent marker to mark where to cut the grass (again, marking the back of the grass). Make a mark every few inches (closer together if the edge has a lot of movement), then pull the grass back and cut the grass from behind, tracing the marks made on the backing with the knife. On wrapped edges, the grass should be cut long so it can wrap over the edge. Mark the same way, just marking for a longer cut, then trim the grass from behind. Seaming The two pieces should be lined up. The backing should not overlap, or even touch. The two pieces should be just short of touching. Roll the grass edges away from the seam, place the seam tape down and roll the grass back into place. Put the side with the blades pointing away from the seam down on the Aplix tape first. Once the seam is lined up and properly set, you will want to walk the seam or roll the seam to ensure proper adhesion of the mechanical bond. Once installed, the seams (where two pieces of DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass are joined to create widths greater than 15’) are virtually invisible and very durable. Much of that is due to the seaming process implemented by ForeverLawn. We use our proprietary micromechanical bonding system, which does not require glue. This eliminates some of the variables and challenges presented by glue. Securing the Rolls If using a perimeter board: Secure the grass to the perimeter boards using 1/4” narrow crown galvanized staples that are 1” in length. Staples are placed every 2–3” apart, and within 1/2” of the board edge using a pneumatic staple gun. Take care not to trap the grass blades when stapling. If using spikes: Space the spikes about 8”–10” apart. Place the top of the spike between the grass rows and about 3/8”–1/2” away from the edge of the grass roll. Use a hammer to pound the spike in. Be careful to move the grass blades out of the way while pounding the spike in. Do not trap blades under the spike. Also, do not over pound or sink the spikes as this will create viable dimples in the grass. ---PAGE BREAK--- [PHONE REDACTED] I foreverlawn.com I DuPont ForeverLawn Installation Guidelines M0530 Rev. 05/19 Infill Blow, rinse, or sweep the turf area as needed to make sure it is clean prior to installing the infill. Spread the appropriate amount of granular rubber infill over the turf. Work this into the base of the grass blades using a stiff bristled push broom and/or plastic leaf rake. If available, you may want to rent a motorized power broom from an equipment rental store. The infill stands the grass blades up and cushions the product. Sand infill is not required as our product has a dimensionally stable backing. However, if sand is desired it will be installed the same way. Multiply the recommended amount of rubber fill by four to determine the amount of sand to use. Depending on the product you are installing you will want to apply the correct amount of infill per square foot of grass. Usually we recommend 3/4 lbs.–1lb. of infill per square foot. Most bags of rubber infill come in 50 lb. increments. This means, if you want to apply 1lb. per square foot, one bag of infill would cover 50 square feet. You would then lay out a grid of infill bags that measures 5’x10’. That one bag will then be evenly distributed within that 5’x10’ area. This will be repeated with all of the bags laying out in the install area. If using a push broom, push the broom against the lay of the grass, using a back and forth motion to work the rubber in. If using the power broom, you want to have the brush head in such a way that the brush is rotating away from you and pushing the infill down into the backing of the grass. You will be walking the power broom with the natural lay of the grass. Work the throttle of the machine in such a way that you are not on full throttle, but just enough to have a consistent rotation of the brush head pushing the rubber down into the grass (MM55 STIHL Yard Boss with brush head attachment). Clean Up On free standing edges, the material on the other side of the DuPont™ ForeverLawn® Select Grass (natural grass, stone, mulch, etc.) can now be filled up to the wrapped edge not exceeding the finish grade of the yard. Use a blower to get rid of loose blades (that result from cutting), and if the grass or area around it is dirty from the install, rinse off with hose and water. The grass is now ready to be used.
