In compliance with GEPA, those projects for which Federal funding is sought, and NEPA compliance is accomplished, are exempt from the requirements of GEP A. GEPA requires that environmental documentation be accomplished for County or City projects if more than 50 percent of the total project cost is funded by a grant of a State Agency or a grant of more than $250,000.00 is made by the State Agency to the municipality or County. The "responsible official of the government agency shall determine if a proposed governmental action is a proposed governmental action which may significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment". A. THE FOLLOWING PROJECTS WOULD NOT SIGNIFICANTLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT: Non-land disturbing activities and minor land disturbing activities which would not be anticipated to significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment include the following list. These types of projects funded with state money would not be subject to envirorime~t.al assessment of anykind. Hearing procedures outline in GEP A would not be applicable. ' 1. Minor roadway and non-historic bridge projects. a.

These studies would serve to document whether or not the County or municipality should anticipate that a project might significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment. Documentation of the studies will be accomplished through the use of the "GEP A Investigation Studies" checklist. The types of projects, which would fall under the category, would include: 1. Bridge replacement projects on new location of with a detour bridge, where there are no significant adverse impacts to historic or archaeological resources, no involvement with Federally listed threatened and endangered species and no significant adverse impact to wetlands. . 2.

The Contractor shall have at least one designated QCT person at the plant at all times except when daily total weight for all mix types is to be greater than 250 tons. If daily production for all mix types of the plant is ~50 tons or less, the QCT may be responsible for conducting tests at up to two plants, subject to random number selection. In addition, the Contractor is also required to have available, either at the plant site or within immediate contact by phone or radio, a Level 2-QCT person responsible for making prompt process control adjustments as necessary to correct the mix. 4. SAMPLING, TESTING AND INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS: Mixtures shall be ran~htmly sampled according to GDT -73 (Method C) and tested by .the QCT on a Lot basis at a minilllum frequency of one test per 500 tons. A copy of the computer generated random sampling data shall be maintained as a part of the project records. The Contractor's QCT shall perform all Sampling and Inspection duties in accordance with GSP-21. All sample containers, extractants, forms, diaries and other supplies shall be furnished by the contractor and are subject to approval of the Engineer. The Contractor's QCT shall perform extraction or ignition (GDT-83 or GDT-125), or digital print-out for asphalt cement content, and gradation analysis (GDT -38) of samples of the mixture produced each day and sampled in accordance with GSP-15. The extracted aggregate shall be properly labeled, stored in a suitable container and secured in a protected environment. If these samples are not procured by the Department within three working days, they may be discarded. If the ignition oven is used, a printout of sample weights shall become a part of the project records. The Contractor shall maintain a Process Control Flow chart for each sieve specified on the Job Mix Formula and including the percent asphalt cement content. Such chart shall include a graph plot of the deviations from the Job Mix Formula' for each test as well as the allowable range based on the Mixture Control Tolerances specified in Section 828. If Acceptance test results are outside Mixture Control Tolerances specified in Section 828, lhe QCT shall immediately notify the Testing Management Operations Supervisor of results. The . Level 2-QCT shall determine if a plant adjustment is needed and immediately run a Process Control sample. If the Process Control sample is also out of Mixture Control Tolerances, an immediate plant adjustment shall be required and additional Process Control samples shall be taken as necessary to assure the corrective action taken was appropriate to control the mix. If the Contractor's QCT obtains 2 consecutive Acceptance samples out of the Mixture Control Tolerances specified in Section 828, production shall stop immediately. Mixture already in storage which deviates no more than 10% in gradation and no more than 0.7% in asphalt cement content from the Job Mix Formula may be transported to and placed on the project subject to visual inspection and density and smoothness requirements. Any mixture remaining in surge bins or silos shall be rejected and disposed of at the Contractor's expense if a sample representative of the mixture deviates more than 10% in gradation or more than 0.7% in asphalt cement content from the Job Mix Formula. A plant correction shall be made prior to resuming production. Upon restarting production, no mixture shall be transported to the project before test results of a Process Control sample from the mixture indicate that quality control of the mixture has been restored by meeting Mixture Control Tolerances. Any mixture produced at initial restarting that does not meet Mixture Control tolerances shall be rejected. The QCT shall measure the temperature of the mixture and record the results on the load ticket each time a sample is taken. The respective load ticket shall also be signed by the QCT for each load from which a sample is taken. When hydrated lime is to be included in the mixture, calibration of the lime system shall be checked for accuracy a minimum of .twice weekly during production and the results of these calibration checks shall be posted at the plant for review. Additionally, records of materials (Asphalt Cement, Aggregates, Hydrated Lime, etc.) invoices shall be made available upon request. 5. COMPARATIVE AND QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM: Periodic comparative testing , will be required of each QCT and will be coordinated by the Department to monitor consistency of equipment and test procedures. In addition, the Department will take independent samples to monitor the Contractor's Quality Control Program. For clarification, . Department samples taken from opposite quarters of material sampled by the Contractor are defined as Comparison Samples. Other independent samples which are taken by the Department from material produced during the same Lot are defined as Quality Assurance samples. This Program is further defined as follows: a. Comparison Sampling and Testing: During the quartering process of Hot Mix samples, the opposite quarters from the test specimen shall be labeled by the QCT and retained for Department comparison testing. In addition, the remaining material removed from the total sample shall be labeled and retained for possible Referee testing, These samples shall be stored in a suitable container and secured in a protected environment. If the Contractor's Acceptance Test results are within Mixture Control Tolerances and if the Department does not procure these retained samples within three working days of the represented mix being produced, these samples may be discarded. The Department will test comparison samples on a random basis at a frequency deemed ,necessary to assure that the Contractor's testing techniques are yielding accurate results. Results of Department tests will be compared ,to the respective Contractor's Acceptance tests. The maximum tolerance allowed for Comparison Samples as defined above shall be as follows: MAXIMUM DIFFERENCE SIEVE SIZE 12.5 mm 9,5mm 4.75 mm 2.36 mm 75 11m A.C. SURFACE 3.5% 3.5% 2.5% 2.0% 0.4% SUBSURFACE 4.0% 4.0% 3.5% 3.0% 2.0% 0.5% If Comparison tests are within these tolerances, production may continue and at the discretion of the Engineer, the Contractor's tests can be used as the acceptance tests for the affected Lot. If test results are not within these tol~rances, the corresponding Referee Samples shall be tested by another Departmental Technician and compared to the tolerance for Comparison Samples as given above. If test Results of Referee Samples,. when. compared to the respective QCT's sample, are within these tolerances, the Contractor's tests can be used as Acceptance Tests for the effected Lot. If tests results are not within these tolerances, the Contractor's Quality Control methods shall be reviewed by the Office of Materials and Research and a thorough investigation will be made if deemed necessary. b. Quality Assurance Sampling and Testing: . The Department will take samples for the purpose of monitoring the effectiveness of the Contractor's Quality Control Program. These samples may be obtained from the same load as QCT samples were taken or other loads at the plant or roadway, or samples obtained immediately behind the spreader and prior to compaction. The samples will be tested and analyzed by the Department in accordance with standard procedures. The Department shall randomly take and test a minimum of two Quality Assurance (QA) samples from each five days or five Lots of production regardless of mix type or number of projects to assure that the mixture is being adequately controlled and accurately sampled and tested. The maximum tolerance for QA samples as defined above, when compared to the Job Mix Formula,' shall be the same as the Mixture Control Tolerances as outlined in Section 828. If test results are not within these tolerances, the Department may take another sample from the respective mix. If tests results of the additional sample are within these tolerances, production may continue. If test results of the additional sample are not within these tolerances, produclion may continue bul the Department will investigate by taking random samples from throughout the Lot in accordance with Subsection 400:07.F. These samples shall be used for Acceptance and the Contractor QCT test results for the respective Lot will not be included in the Lot calculations. Should the Engineer determine that Quality Control requirements are not being met or that' unsatisfactory results are being obtained, prompt corrective action shall be taken by the Contractor. Failure to take prompt corrective action will be cause for the Engineer to discontinue acceptance of the mix. If the Engineer determines that any material is unacceptable to leave in place, the material shal} be removed and replaced at the Contractor's expense. Any test results for materials not used in the Work shall not be included in the calculations for Lot Acceptance. If it is determined by the Department that the QCT has not followed procedures specified in GSP-21 or has provided erroneous information, his or her certification may be withdrawn, and the Contractor may be subject to punitive or legal action. Technicians who lose their certification due to falsification of test data will not be ,eligible for re-certification in the future unless apptoved by the State Materials and Research Engineer. In-place material represented by unacceptable tests will be evaluated by cores in accordance with Subsection 400.07.F. These core samples shall be used for acceptance. ~ 6. GRADATION AND ASPHALT CEMENT CONTENT: Quality Acceptance of the mixture will be based upon the mean of the deviations from the Job Mix Formula for control sieves and asphalt cement content of the specified number of test results per Lot. This mean will be determined by averaging the actual numeric value of the individual deviations from the Job Mix Formula, disregarding whether the deviations are positive or negative amounts. The samples shall be taken randomly in accordance with GDT -73. In the event that the designated random load is not sampled, or less than the specified number of samples are taken, the Contractor shall take at least two representative six inch cores from the roadway (to assure adequate sample size). These cores shall be taken from the area where the appropriate random lo~d was placed, or for each portion of mix that was not sampled, and acceptance will be based on the mean of the deviations from the Job Mix Formula of the total number of tests run. For asphalt cement content only, on plants with digital recorders, digital printouts of liquid asphalt cement weights may be substituted in lieu of an extraction test. The asphalt cement content shall be calculated from the ticket representing the mixture tested for gradation. The asphalt cement content calculated from each ticket will be considered a test. The control sieves used in Quality Acceptance for the various types of mix are as indicated below: TABLE 400.07.A MIX TYPE' MIXTURE CONTROL 25 mm Superpave, 12.5 mm, 2.36 mm Sieves and Asphalt Cement 19 mm Superpave, 12.5 mm Superpave 9.5 mm, 2.36 mm Sieves and Asphalt Cement 9,5 mmSuperpave 4.75 mm, 2.36 mm Sieves and Asphalt Cement 4,75 mm Mix 2.36 mm Sieve and Asphalt Cement 400.07B.: COMPACTION: Delete this Subsection and substitute the following: The compaction of the mixture as determined by either GDT-39, or GDT-59, will be accepted in Lots as defined in Subsection 400.07.A. and shall be within the same Lot boundaries as the mixture accept~nce.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION STATE OF GEORGIA SPECIAL PROVISION SECTION 828 - HOT MIX ASPHALTIC CONCRETE MIXTURES Delete and substitute the following: 828.01 DESCRIPTION: This specification covers the requirements that are applicable to all Hot Mix Asphaltic Concrete Mixtures. Materials used in the preparation of these mixtures shall be approved by the Engineer prior to incorporating in the Work. This work consists of producing and constructing one or more courses of hot mix asphalt pavement. Superpave mixes shall be designed in accordance with the Superpave System for Volumetric Design (AASHTO TP4 and AASHTO PP2) to meet test properties as shown unless otherwise stated herein. All mixtures are designated based on the Nominal Maximum Sieve Size as defined in Subsection 828.02 and shall conform to the following unless otherwise stated herein: --r A. The Contract Pay Item will 'specify the aggregate group, or blend, where applicable. See Subsection 828.04 for explanation of aggregate groups and blends. B. The percent finer than 7511mwill be determined in accordance wilh GDT-2, Alternate A or B. C. Mixture Control Tolerances are based on the results of individual tests and are for mix uniformity control purposes only. D. Group I or Group II aggregate or a blend of both may be used for patching or leveling. Mixes for patching and leveling are listed in Subsections 828.02 and 828.03, E. Hydrated lime shall be included in all paving courses where noted. The lime shall be added at a minimum rate of one percent of the total dry aggregate weight. In recycled mixtures, lime shall be added at a minimum rate of one percent of the virgin aggregate portion plus a minimum of 0.5 percent of the aggregate in the Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) portion of the mixture. Additional lime, as well as im approved heat stable anti-stripping additive, which meets requirements of Subsection 831.04, may be required in any particular mixture when necessary for satisfaction of governing Specification requirements. No additional payment will be made by the Department for any such required additional materials. ' 828.01 (Continued) F. On projects designated at Mix Design Level A, as design,ated in the project Plans or project Gener'!.l Notes, the Asphalt Cement (AC) used in all mixtures may, at the Contractor's discretion, include an approved heat stable anti-stripping additive, which meets requirements of Subsection 831.04, in lieu of hydrated lime unless noted otherwise. The addition rate will be a minimum of 0.5 percent of the AC portion. When a heat stable anti-stripping additive is used in these mixes in lieu of hydrated lime, the minimum tensile splitting ratio will be 0.4 for Asphaltic Concrete 4.75 mm mix and 0.6 for all other Asphaltic concrete mixtures. G. Asphalt Cement used in production of asphaltic concrete mixtures shall meet the requirements of Subsection 820.01. Asphalt Cement used in the production of these mixtures shall meet requirements of Subsection 820.01. The AC used in all mixtures shall be PG 67-22 with the following exceptions: a. For projects designated at Mix Design Level A, as designated in the project Plans or project General Notes, PG 64-22 may be used at the discretion of the Contractor. b. For mixtures which utilize ~eclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP), the AC 'grade to be used will be determined by the Engineer. c. AC meeting requirements of PG 76-22 shall be used in the top dense-graded surface, course, excluding shoulder construction, for projects or portions of a project designed at Level Cor 0, as designaled in the project Plans or project General Notes, H. Local sand, not to exceed 20% of the total aggregate' weight, may be used as an ingredient iil all Asphaltic Concrete mixtures placed on the mainline and ramps of non-interstate rqutes designed at Mix Design Level A. On non-interstate projects designed at Mix Design Level B, C, or D, as designated in the project Plans or project General Notes, the use of loc'al sand shall be limiled to Asphaltic Concrete 25 mm Superpave mixtures only and shall not exceed 20% of the total aggregate weight. However, up to 2'0% local sand, based on the total aggregate weight, may be allowed as an ingredient in all Asphaltic Concrete mixtures used for shoulder construction unless specified otherwise. 828.01. (Continued) 1. When allowed, local sand shall meet the following gradation requirements: GRADING REQUIREMENTS % Passing 12.5 mm Sieve 100 % Passing 9.5 mm Sieve 90-100 % Passing 4.75 mm Sieve 80-100 % Passing 2.36 mm Sieve 60-100 % Passing 300 J.lm Sieve 12-70 % Passing 75 J.lm Sieve 2-15 The clay content of local sand shall be no more than 7%. Local sand shall also be free of clay lumps as determined by AASHTO: T 112. 828.02 SUPERPA VE ASPHALTIC CONCRETE MIXTURES A. Gradation Requirements: Superpave utilizes the FHW A 0.45 Power gradation chart to define permissible gradations, This chart uses a unique graphing technique to judge the cumulative particle size distribution of a blend. The ordinate (y axis) of the chart is percent passing, ranging from zero to one hundred percent. The abscissa (x axis) is an arithmetic scale of sieve size opening in microns raised to the 0.45 power. Superpave defines nominal maximum sieve size and maximum sieve size as follows: Nominal Maximum Sieve Size: One standard sieve size larger thari the first sieve to retain more than ten percent (10.0%). Maximum Sieve Size: One standard sieve size larger than the nominal maximum size. The 0.45 power maximum density line is drawn from the origin to one hundred percent (100.0%) passing the maximum sieve size. 828.02 {Continued) TABLE 828.02.A.l.
