IB-02 EXAMINATION OF WORK Each bidder shall, by careful examination, satisfy himself as to the nature and location of the work, the conformation of the ground, the character, quality and quantity of the facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the work or the cost thereof under the contract. No oral agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, or employee of the Owner, either before or after the execution of the contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations therein.

The Owner may make such investigations as are deemed necessary to determine the ability of the bidder to perform the work and the bidder shall furnish to him all such additional information and data for this purpose as may be requested.

Minor roadway ~nd non-historic bridge projects. a. Moderniza~ion of an existing highway by resurfacing, restoration, rehabil1tation, adding shoulders, widening a 5ingle lane or lUJ in each direction, and the addition of a median within previously disturbed existing right-of-way. b. Adding auxiliary lanes for localized purposes (weaVing, climbing, speed changes, etc.), and correcting substandard curves and intersections within previously distprbed existing rig~t-of- way. c. Non-historic bridge replacement projects in existing alignment with no detour bridge. /J~ r- / ~..

Highway landscaping and landscape modification, rest area projects and truck weigh stations within previously disturbed exis~ing right- of way. s. Construction of bus shelters and bays within existi~g right-of-~ay. 6. Temporary replacement of a highway facility which is commenced immediately after the occurrence of a natural disaster or catastrophic failure to restore t~e highway.for the health, welfare, and safety of the public. B. THE FOLLO\IING PRO.JECTS KAY NOT SIGNIFICANTLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT: For projects which will cause land disturbance and for which there is no anticipation that the project may significantly adversely affect the qlJallty of the environment, certain studies will be undertaken. 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 he use of the "GEPA Investigation Studies" checklist. The types of project which would fall under the category would include: 1. Bridge replacement project on new location or with a detour bridge, where there are no 5ignificant adverse impacts to historic or '~~'i:ogical -Y~'a)'h\.'C", ~o lnVblvemen~ 'vlth "'Fe!er~ill.y 11.'Sted threatened and endan~,.r,.ti It,,..,..4.e ....A ...... ..l__l ~l___.. _.1_____ 1_____ ~~..--.---..--- ....- --0...------- ----.-- --r"'w" to wetlands. 2.

Determination of the extent of any needed corrective work to the in.place mat will be in accordance with 400.07.0.8. below. Co Work will be allowed to continue only after the Contractor lubmits a written plan or measures' and/or actions which will be taken to prevent further segregation and the plan is approved by the Department. d. When work resumes, the Contractor will be allowed to place a test section not to exceed 500 tons of the affected mixture. for evaluation by .the Department. However, if' after a few loads it is apparent that the corrective actions taken were not adequate, the measures described beginning with Step 1.a. above will be followed. LikewiSe, if after 500 tons it is apparent that the problem has been solved, work will be allowed to continue. 7J() -,; Ie 1 Ii ,I" - I} I I I I I I I I I I I I I .

Unacceptable Segregation Suspected: 'When the Engineer observes segregation in the finished mat and suspects that it may be unacceptable the following measures will be pla.ced into effect. . L The Contractor may elect to continue work at his own risk; however, an immediate investigation will be initiated by the Department to determine the &everity of the apparent eegregation. Also, the Contractor shall immediately and continually 8(ljust his operation until the visually apparent segregated areas are eliminated from the finiahed mat. b. The investigation by the Department will include but not necessarily be limited to the taking of aU-inch cores from typical areas of IIUSpect segreption and testing for compliance with the MiJ:ture Control Tolerances in Section 828. Co When these tolerances are exceeded, work will be lIuspended for corrective action 88 outlined in 400.07G1. above. S. Corrective Work: Any &egreeated area found to vary 10% or more on the Control Sieves from the approved Job Mix Formula will be subject to removal and replacement at the Contractor's expense. The control sieves for each mix type are as shown in Sub-Section 400.07.A. For subsurface mixtures. the removal and replacement may be limited to the actual &egreeated areas or at the full' lane width within the limits of individual segregated areas, at the Contractor's discretion and 88 approved by the Engineer. For surface mixes, the removal and replacement shall not be less than the full width of the affected lane and ten feet in length. All surface tolerance requirements will apply to the corrected areas for both subsurface and surface mixes. Do ~ 19 2 I I; I I I ~ I I I I I . P' ...
