from the date specified in the Notice to Proceed issued by the City of Lubbock to the successful bidder.
The Contractor will be permitted to prosecute the work in the order of his own choosing, provided, however, the City
reserves the right to require the Contractor to submit a progress schedule of the work contemplated by the contract
documents. In the event the City requires a progress schedule to be submitted, and it is determined by the City that the
progress of the work is not in accordance with the progress schedule so submitted, the City may direct the Contractor to take

r
i
the contract documents have been paid in full and that there are no claims pending, of which the Contractor has been
notified
8. MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP
The intent of these contract documents is that only materials and workmanship of the best quality and grade will be
furnished. The fact that the specifications may fail to be sufficiently complete in some detail will not relieve the Contractor
of full responsibility for providing materials of high quality and for protecting them adequately until incorporated into the
project. The presence or absence of a representative of the City on the site will not relieve the Contractor of full
responsibility of complying with this provision. The specifications for materials and methods set forth in the contract
documents provide minimum standards of quality which the Owner believes necessary to procure a satisfactory project.
9. GUARANTEES
All equipment and materials incorporated in the project and all construction shall be guaranteed against defective materials
and workmanship. Prior to final acceptance, the Contractor shall furnish to the Owner, a written general guarantee which

proper prosecution of the work contemplated by the Contractor.
11. PROTECTION OF THE WORK
The Contractor shall be responsible for the care, preservation, conservation, and protection of all materials, supplies,
machinery, equipment, tools, apparatus, accessories, facilities, and all means of construction, and any and all parts of the
work whether the Contractor has been paid, partially paid, or not paid for such work, until the date the City issues its
certificate of completion to Contractor. The City reserves the right, after the bids have been opened and before the contract
has been awarded, to require of a bidder the following information:
(a) The experience record of the bidder showing completed jobs of a similar nature to the one covered by the intended
contract and all work in progress with bond amounts and percentage completed.
(b) A sworn statement of the current financial condition of the bidder.
(c) Equipment schedule.
12. TEXAS STATE SALES TAX
This contract is issued by an organization which qualifies for exemption provisions pursuant to provisions of Article 20.04
of the Texas Limited Sales, Excise and Use Tax Act.
The Contractor must obtain a limited sales, excise and use tax permit which shall enable him to buy the materials to be
incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase.
13. PROTECTION OF SUBSURFACE LINES AND STRUCTURES
It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to prosecute the work contemplated by the contract documents in such a way as to
exercise due care to locate and prevent damage to all underground pipelines, utility lines, conduits or other underground
structures which might or could be damaged by Contractor during the construction of the project contemplated by these
contract documents. The City of Lubbock agrees that it will furnish Contractor the location of all such underground lines
and utilities of which it has knowledge. However, such fact shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities
aforementioned. All such underground lines or structures cut or damaged by Contractor during the prosecution of the work
contemplated by this contract shall be repaired immediately by Contractor to the satisfaction of the City of Lubbock, Texas,
r at Contractor's expense.
14. BARRICADES AND SAFETY MEASURES
The contractor shall, at his own expense, furnish and erect such barricades, fences, lights and danger signals, and shall take
such other precautionary measures for the protection of persons, property and the work as may be necessary. The
Contractor will be held responsible for all damage to the work due to failure of barricades, signs, and lights to protect it, and
rwhen damage is incurred, the damaged portion shall be immediately removed and replaced by Contractor at his own cost
and expense. The Contractor's responsibility for maintenance of barricades, signs, and lights shall not cease until the date
r of issuance to Contractor of City's certificate of acceptance of the project.
1 15. EXPLOSIVES
The use of explosives will not be permitted unless written permission to do so is obtained by the Contractor from the City.
In all cases where written permission is obtained for the use of explosives, the Contractor shall assume full responsibility for
all damage which may occur as a direct or indirect result of the blasting. In addition, in all cases where explosives are
authorized to be used, the Contractor shall use utmost care so as not to endanger life or property and the Contractor shall
.� further use only such methods as are currently utilized by persons, firms, or corporations engaged in similar type of
construction activity.
i` Explosive materials shall not be stored or kept at the construction site by the Contractor.
In all cases where explosives are to be used during the construction of the project contemplated by this contract, it shall be
the duty of the Contractor to notify each utility company having structures (above or below the ground) in proximity to the
site of the work of Contractor's intention to use explosives, and such notice shall be given sufficiently in advance to enable
the companies to take such steps as they may deem necessary to protect their property from injury. Such notice, however,
shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for any damage resulting from his blasting operations.
16. CONTRACTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE
The successful bidder shall be required to have a responsible local representative available at all times while the work is in
progress under this contract. The successful bidder shall be required to furnish the name, address and telephone number
where such local representative may be reached during the time that the work contemplated by this contract is in progress.

to the City. Proof of coverage shall be furnished to the City and written notice of cancellation or any material change will
be provided ten (10) days in advance of cancellation or change. All policies shall contain an agreement on the part of the
insurer waiving the right to subrogation.
r
r
The insurance certificates furnished shall name the City as an additional insured and shall further state that all
subcontractors are named as additional insureds, or in the alternative, shall be accompanied by a statement from the
,•. Contractor to the effect that no work on this particular project shall be subcontracted.
18. LABOR AND WORKING HOURS
r Attention of each bidder is particularly called to the schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem wages included in these
contract documents. The wage rate which must be paid on this project shall not be less than specified in the schedule of
general prevailing rates of per diem wages as above mentioned. The bidders' attention is further directed to the
requirements of Article 5159a, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes providing for the payment of the wage schedules above
mentioned and the bidder's obligations thereunder. The inclusion of the schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem
wages in these contract documents does not release the Contractor from compliance with any wage law that may be
a
applicable. Construction work under this contract requiring an inspector will not be performed on weekends or holidays
unless the following conditions exist:
(1) The project being constructed is essential to the City of Lubbock's ability to provide the necessary service to its
citizens.
(2) Delays in construction are due to factors outside the control of the Contractor. The Contractor is approaching the
penalty provisions of the contract and Contractor can show he has made a diligent effort to complete the contract
within the allotted time.
Before construction work requiring an inspector is to be performed on weekends or holidays, the Contractor must notify the
Owner's Representative not less than three full working days prior to the weekend or holiday he desires to do work and
obtain written permission from the Owner's Representative to do such work. The final decision on whether to allow
construction work requiring an inspector on weekends or holidays will be made by the Owner's Representative.
In any event, if a condition should occur or arise at the site of this project or from the work being done under this contract
which is hazardous or dangerous to property or life, the Contractor shall immediately commence work, regardless of the day
of the week or the time of day, to correct or alleviate such condition so that it is no longer dangerous to property or life.
19. PAYMENT OF EMPLOYEES AND FILING OF PAYROLLS
The contractor and each of his subcontractors shall pay each of his employees engaged in work on the project under this
contract in full (less mandatory legal deductions) in cash, or by check readily cashable without discount, not less often than
once each week. The Contractor and each of his subcontractors engaged at the site of the work shall not later than the
seventh day following the payment of wages, file with the Owner's Representative, or Engineer, a certified, sworn, legible
copy of such payroll. This shall contain the name of each employee, his classification, the number of hours worked on each
day, rate of pay, and net pay. The affidavit shall state that the copy is a true and correct copy of such payroll, that no rebates
or deductions (except as shown) have been made, or will in the future be made from the wages paid as shown thereon. The
Contractor must classify employees according to one of the classifications set forth in the schedule of general prevailing rate
of per diem wages, which schedule is included in the contract documents.
The Contractor shall forfeit as a penalty to the City of Lubbock on whose behalf this contract is made, ten dollars for each
laborer, workman, or mechanic employed for each calendar day, or portion thereof, such laborer, workman or mechanic is
paid less than the wages assigned to his particular classification as set forth in the schedule of general prevailing rate of per
diem wages included in these contract documents.
20. PROVISIONS CONCERNING ESCALATOR CLAUSES

decreases in the cost of materials, labor or other items required for the project will be rejected and returned to the bidder
without being considered.

orders or instructions appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which he should receive compensation or an
adjustment in the construction time, he shall make written request to the Owner's Representative for a written order
authorizing such extra work Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute extra work or as to
the payment therefore, and the Owner's Representative insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the
work after making written request for written order and shall keep adequate and accurate account of the actual field cost

an extension of time by the Contractor supported by all requested documentation shall then submit such written request to
the City Council of the City of Lubbock for their consideration. Should the Contractor disagree with the action of City
Council on granting an extension of time, such disagreement shall be settled by arbitration as hereinafter provided.
37. HINDRANCE AND DELAYS
In executing the contract agreement, the Contractor agrees that in undertaking to complete the work within the time herein
fixed, he has taken into consideration and made allowances for all hindrances and delays incident to such work, whether
growing out of delays in securing material or workmen or otherwise. No charge shall be made by the Contractor for
hindrance or delays from any cause during the progress of any part of the work embraced in this contract except where the
work is stopped by order of the Owner or Owner's Representative for the Owner's convenience, in which event, such
expense as in the judgment of the Owner's Representative that is caused by such stoppage shall be paid by Owner to
Contractor.
38. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS
No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured or computed length, area, solid
contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided. In the event this contract is
let on a unit price basis, then Owner and Contractor agree that this contract, including the specifications, plans and other
contract documents are intended to show clearly all work to be done and material to be furnished hereunder. Where the
estimated quantities are shown for the various classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract,
they are approximate and are to be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing their
bids offered for the work It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and the materials to be
furnished under this contract may differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this
contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of work done and materials furnished on the
project..
39. PROTECTION OF ADJOINING PROPERTY
The Contractor shall take proper means to protect the adjacent or adjoining property or properties in any way encountered,
which may be injured or seriously affected by any process of construction to be undertaken under this agreement, from any
damage or injury by reason of said process of construction; and he shall be liable for any and all claims for such damage on
account of his failure to fully protect all adjacent property. The Contractor agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the
Owner against any claim or claims for damages due to any injury to any,adjacent or adjoining property, arising or growing
out of the performance of this contract, but such indemnity shall not apply to any claim of any kind arising out of the
existence or character of the work.
40. PRICE FOR WORK
In consideration of the furnishing of all necessary labor, equipment and material and the completion of all work by the
Contractor, and on the delivery of all materials embraced in this contract in full conformity with the specifications and
stipulations herein contained, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the price set forth in the bid attached hereto, which
has been made a part of this contract, and the Contractor hereby agrees to receive such price in full for furnishing all
materials and all labor required for the aforesaid work, also, for all expenses incurred by him and for well and truly
performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this agreement, the attached specifications,
plans, contract documents and requirements of Owner's Representative.
41. PAYMENTS
No payments made or certificates given shall be considered as conclusive evidence of the performance of the contract, either
wholly or in part, nor shall any certificate or payment be considered as acceptance of defective work. Contractor shall at
any time requested during the progress of the work furnish the Owner or Owner's Representative with a verifying certificate
showing the Contractor's total outstanding indebtedness in connection with the work. Before final payment is made,
Contractor shall satisfy Owner, by affidavit or otherwise, that there are no outstanding liens against Owner's premises by
reason of any work under the contract. Acceptance by Contractor of final payment of the contract price shall constitute a
waiver of all claims against Owner which have not theretofore been timely filed as provided in this contract.
42. PARTIAL PAYMENTS
On or before the tenth day of each month, the Contractor shall submit to Owner's Representative an application for partial
payment. Owner's Representative shall review said application for partial payment and the progress of the work made by
the Contractor and if found to be in order shall prepare a certificate for partial payment showing as completely as practical
the total value of the work done by the Contractor up to and including the last day of the preceding month; said statement
shall also include the value of all sound materials delivered on site of the work that are to be fabricated into the work
The Owner shall then pay the Contractor on or before the fifteenth day of the current month the total amount of the Owner's
Representative's Certificate of Partial Payment, less S% of the amount thereof, which S% shall be retained until final
payment, and further, less all previous payments and all further sums that may be retained by Owner under the terms of this
agreement. It is understood, however, that in case the whole work be near to completion, and this fact is certified to by
Owner's Representative and some unexpected and some unusual delay occurs due to no fault or negligence on the part of the
Contractor, the Owner may upon written recommendation of Owner's Representative pay a reasonable and equitable portion
of the retained percentage due Contractor.
43. FINAL COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
Within thirty-one (31) days after the Contractor has given the Owner's Representative written notice that the work has been
completed or substantially completed, the Owner's Representative and the Owner shall inspect the work and within said
time, if the work be found to be completed or substantially completed in accordance with the contract documents, the
Owner's Representative shall issue to the Owner and Contractor his certificate of completion, and thereupon it shall be the
duty of the Owner within thirty-one (31) days to issue a certificate of acceptance of the work to the Contractor.
44. FINAL PAYMENT
Upon the issuance of the certificate of completion, the Owner's Representative shall proceed to make final measurement and
prepare a final statement of the value of all work performed and materials furnished under the terms of the agreement, and
r. shall certify same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contractor on or before the 31 st day after the date of certificate of
completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of this agreement, provided he has fully performed his contractual
obligations under the terms of this contract; and said payment shall become due in any event upon said performance by the
Contractor. Neither the certificate of acceptance nor the final payment, nor any provisions in the contract documents shall
relieve the Contractor of the obligation for fa fillment of any warranty which may be required in the special conditions (if
any) of this contract or required in the specifications made a part of this contract.
F45. CORRECTION OF WORK BEFORE FINAL PAYMENT FOR WORK
Contractor shall promptly remove from Owners' premises all materials condemned by the Owner's Representative on
account of failure to conform to the contract, whether actually incorporated in the work or not, and Contractor shall at his
own expense promptly replace such condemned materials with other materials conforming to the requirements of the
contract. Contractor shall also bear the expense of restoring all work of other contractors damaged by any such removal or
replacement. If Contractor does not remove and replace any such condemned work within a reasonable time after a written
notice by the Owner or the Owner's Representative, Owner may remove and replace it at Contractor's expense.
i
46. CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT
Neither the final payment nor certificate nor any provision in this contract shall relieve the Contractor of responsibility for
faulty materials or workmanship, and he shall remedy any defects due thereto and pay for any damage to other work
resulting therefrom, which shall appear within a period of one (1) year from the date of substantial completion. The Owner
or the Owner's Representative shall give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness.
r
47. PAYMENT WITHHELD
The Owner may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any certificate to
such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of.
(a) Defective work not remedied.
(b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating possible filing of claims.
(c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments promptly to subcontractors or for materials or labor.
(d) Damage to another contractor.
When the above grounds are removed, or the Contractor provides a surety bond satisfactory to the Owner, which will
protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.
48. TIME OF FILING CLAIMS
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor shall be in
writing and filed with the Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) days after the Owner's Representative has given any
directions, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to take exception. The Owners' Representative shall reply to
such written exceptions by the Contractor and render his final decision in writing. In case the Contractor should appeal
from the decision of the Owner's Representative, any demand for arbitration shall be filed with the Owner's Representative
and the Owner in writing within ten (10) days after the date of delivery to Contractor of the final decision of the Owner's
Representative. It is further agreed that final acceptance of the work by the Owner and the acceptance by the Contractor of
the final payment shall be a bar to any claim by either party, except where noted otherwise in the contract documents.
49. ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR
In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from
the Owner or the Owner's Representative, or if the Contractor fails to comply with the orders of the Owner's Representative,
when such orders are consistent with this contract, this Agreement, or the Specifications hereto attached, then the Surety on
the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the
Contractor.
After receiving said notice of abandonment, the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machinery, equipment,
tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under the contract for
work, may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety of the Contractor, or another contractor, in completion of
the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefore (except when used in connection with Extra
Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under paragraph 24 of this contract); it being understood that the use of
such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement.
In case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinbefore provided for within ten
(10) days after service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work in either of the following
elective manners:
(a) The Owner may employ such force of men and use of machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as said
Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment,
tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the
Owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the Contractor under
and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under
this contract, if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then said Contractor shall receive the difference.
In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had
been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to
the Owner, or
i (b) The Owner, under sealed bids, after notice published as required by law, at least twice in a newspaper having a
general circulation in the County of location of the work, may let the contract for the completion of the work under
r substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract. In case of any increase in cost to
the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this contract, such increase
shall be charged to the Contractor and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefore. However, should the cost to
complete any such new contract prove to be less than that which would have been the cost to complete the work
under this contract, the Contractor or his Surety shall be credited therewith.
When the work shall have been substantially completed, the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and certificates of
completion and acceptance, as provided in paragraph 42 hereinabove set forth, shall be issued A complete itemized
statement of the contract accounts, certified to by Owner's Representative as being correct shall then be prepared and
delivered to Contractor and his Surety, whereon the Contractor or his Surety, or the Owner as the case may be, shall pay the
balance due as reflected by said statement within 30 days after the date of certificate of completion.
In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have been the
cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this contract, or when the Contractor
and/or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the Owner, then all machinery, equipment, tools,
materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the Contractor and/or his Surety. Should the cost to
complete the work exceed the contract price, and the Contractor and/or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the Owner
within the time designated hereinabove, and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the
site of the work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the
Contractor and his Surety at the respective addresses designated in this contract; provided, however, that actual written
r notice given in any manner will satisfy this condition. After mailing, or other giving of such notice, such property shall be
held at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety subject only to the duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect
such property. After fifteen (15) days from the date of said notice the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools,
materials or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety. Such sale
may be made at either public or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any
machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies which remain on the *jobsite and belong to persons other than the
Contractor or his Surety, to their proper owners.
50. ABANDONMENT BY OWNER
In case the Owner shall fail to comply with the terms of this contract, and should fail or refuse to comply with said terms
within ten (10) days after written notification by the Contractor, then the Contractor may suspend or wholly abandon the
work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools, and equipment, and all materials on the ground that have not been
included in payments to the Contractor and have not been incorporated into the work. Thereupon, the Owner's
Representative shall make an estimate of the total amount earned by the Contractor, which estimate shall include the value
t of all work actually completed by said Contractor at the prices stated in the attached bid, the value of all partially completed
work at a fair and equitable price, and the amount of all Extra Work performed at the prices agreed upon, or provided for by
the terms of this contract, and a reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the Contractor to carry the
r whole work to completion, and which cannot be utilized. The Owner's Representative shall then make a final statement of
the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the above estimate all previous payments by the Owner and all other sums
that may be retained by the Owner under the terms of this Agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner who shall pay to
the Contractor on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the notification by the Contractor the balance shown by said
final statement as due the Contractor, under the terms of this Agreement.
r 51. BONDS
` The successful bidder shall be required to furnish a performance bond and payment bond in accordance with Article 5160,
Vemon's Annotated Civil Statutes in the amount of 100% of the total contract price, in the event said contract price exceeds
$25,000.00. If the contract price does not exceed $25,000.00, the statutory bonds will not be required. All bonds, if
required, shall be submitted on forms supplied by the Owner, and executed by an approved Surety Company authorized to
do business in the State of Texas. ,And it is further agreed that this contract shall not be in effect until such bonds are so
furnished.
t
i
52. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
In the event special conditions are contained herein as part of the contract documents and said special conditions conflict
with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the special conditions shall control.
53. LOSSES FROM NATURAL CAUSES —
Unless otherwise specified herein, all loss or damage to the Contractor arising out of the nature of the work to be done, or
from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstance and the prosecution of the same, or from unusual
obstructions or difficulties which may be encountered in the prosecution of the work, shall be sustained and borne by the
Contractor at his own cost and expense.
54. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR _
Contractor is, and shall remain, an independent contractor with full, complete and exclusive power and authority to direct,
supervise, and control his own employees and to determine the method of the performance of the work covered hereby. The
fact that the Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right to observe Contractor's work during his performance and
to carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly reserved to and vested in the Owner or Owner's Representative
hereunder, is not intended to and shall not at any time change or effect the status of the Contractor as an independent —
contractor with respect to either the Owner or Owner's Representative or to the Contractor's own employees or to any other
person, firm, or corporation.
55. CLEANING UP
The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and at the
completion of the work he shall remove all such debris and also his tools, scaffolding, and surplus materials and shall leave
the work room clean or its equivalent. The work shall be left in good order and condition. In case of dispute Owner may
remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

7, MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION
1. GENERAL
The following paragraphs give the specifications on the
various materials which are to be used in this project. On
minor items a certificate from the manufacturer may be
required, certifying that the material or equipment meets the
specifications for such material as specified herein. All
materials shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer
before being used. All references in these specifications to
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) designations
shall be the latest revisions. All references in these
specifications to the Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT) Standard Specifications for Construction of Highways,
Streets and Bridges shall mean the 1993 Edition.
2. CONCRETE
A. Cement
Cement shall conform to ASTM C-150, Type I and Type III, and
shall be an approved brand.
B . Aggregate
Description
Concrete aggregates shall consist of natural, washed and
screened sand, and washed and screened gravel or clean
crushed stone conforming to ASTM C-33 and TxDOT Item 360.
Coarse aggregate for Class "C" Concrete Street Paving shall
be crushed limestone (Brownwood Type). The aggregate shall
be well graded from coarse to fine and shall be free from
injurious amounts of clay, soft or flaky materials, loam or
organic impurities. All aggregate shall be approved by the
Engineer before use. Maximum size of aggregate shall be 1-
1/2 inches. Aggregate for concrete construction proposed to
be used in this project shall have a loss not to exceed 18t
when subjected to 5 cycles of the Magnesium Sulfate
soundness test ASTM C-88.
Stockpiles
The location of all stockpiles of aggregate shall be
approved by the Engineer prior to unloading as to zoning
r requirements, smoothness and compaction of the ground, and
traffic conditions. Stockpiles of aggregate to be
incorporated into the project shall be protected from dust
�^ by drift fences of any suitable material approved by the
4 Engineer, when sandstorm possibilities exist. Care will be
taken to prevent dusty conditions in the stockpile area from
,,.. any sources.
M-1
N
C. Water
Water shall be clean, clear, free from oil, acid or organic
matter and free from injurious amounts of alkali, salts or.
other chemicals.
D. Concrete Materials Test
Pre -Construction Tests
The Contractor will submit test certificates from an
approved commercial laboratory on all aggregates proposed
for use on this work. Tests should be made approximately 20
days before beginning the concrete operation.
The Contractor will submit, in advance of construction, the
mix design and the result of compression tests made by a
commercial laboratory. These will be made on each type of
concrete mix design proposed for use on this project..
Tests shall be made on 6 cylinders for each mix, 3 tested in
3 or 7 days, 3 tested at 7 or 28 days. Additional tests
shall be furnished if material source is changed or if
concrete used varies from the original design.
The Engineer shall approve the mix design after the pre -
construction tests have been completed.
Construction Tests
Tests of the aggregates and the concrete will be made by the
Engineer during construction to determine conformity with
the specifications. Test cylinders will be made in
accordance with ASTM C-31. The specimens shall be cured
under standard moisture and temperature conditions in
accordance with requirements of ASTM C-31.
Strength tests shall be made, in general, for each day's
run, or for each 50 cubic yards of concrete if a day's run
greatly exceeds this amount, but these tests may be made
entirely at the discretion of the Engineer. Strength tests
on Class "C" Concrete shall be made for approximately each
30 cubic yards, or every third truck on each day's run. The
costs of all such testing will be borne by the City but the
Contractor shall cooperate in securing and storing samples
and shall furnish all materials required for sampling..
A strength test shall consist of five standard test
cylinders made from a composite sample obtained in
accordance with the requirements of ASTM C-172. Two of the
cylinders shall be'tested at 3 or 7 days and at 7 or 28
days. The fifth cylinder shall be held available for
subsequent testing, if determined necessary by the Engineer.
The test result shall be the average of the two 7 or 28 day
specimens, except that, if one specimen in the test shows
M-2
r manifest evidence of improper sampling, molding, or testing,
it shall be discarded and the remaining two strengths
averaged. Should more than one specimen representing a
given test show definite defects, due to improper sampling,
molding or testing, the entire test shall be discarded.
!.. The result of the 7 or 28 day strength tests shall be used
! as the basis for accepting or rejecting the concrete
represented.
The results of the 3 or 7 day strength tests will be
compared with the 3 or 7 day strength of the preconstruction
test cylinders for the type and slump of the concrete being
r produced. Should the 3 or 7 day strengths indicate a
deficiency in the 7 or 28 day strengths, the Engineer may
require a temporary change in proportions to correct such
deficiency. Such change shall remain in effect until the 7
or 28 day strength of the material in question is
determined, at which time the change shall become permanent
or shall be rescinded, depending upon the results of the 7
" or 28 day test.
The Engineer shall record the delivery ticket number for the
concrete and the exact location in the work at which each
load represented by a strength test is deposited.
E. Concrete Desicrn
Concrete conforming to these.specifications may be "Ready
Mix" but transporting vehicles shall be operated such as to
insure delivery and placement in forms without loss or
segregation of ingredients and within one hour of mixing
time. Concrete will be mixed continuously during transit.
Mix Design
All concrete for curb and gutter, valley gutters, fillets
{� and alley stubs, alley slabs, drainage channels, inlet
{ boxes, headwalls, and medians shall have 526 air entrainment
(±1-1J2% tolerance). The concrete mix design shall be based
�-* on water -cement ratio, and shall be as follows for the
different classes of concrete.
Minimum Sacks Max. Gal. Max. Slump
Class Cement per C.Y. Water per sack in inches
F
A 5 6.5 4
C 6 6 3
E 5.5 5.5 3
F 6 5.5 2
The concrete mix design for the different classes shall also
be such that the compressive and flexural strength for each
1r, class shall not be less than the following:
I
M-3
Minimum,Average for
Class any test
3 DAY 7 DAY BEAM STRENGTH 28 DAY
A ---- 2100 --- 3000
C ---- 3000 600 3600
E 2500 3000 --- ----
F 2900 3500 --- ----
Any concrete failing to meet these strength requirements or
air content shall be -removed and replaced.
Low Strength Concrete
Any class of concrete incorporated in any part of the
project which does not meet the strength requirements
specified above, shall be considered low strength concrete.
Low strength concrete shall.be removed and replaced at the
expense`of the Contractor.
The Engineer shall determine the exact limits of any low -
strength concrete required to be removed and replaced under
the provisions of this paragraph. The methods to be used in
removing and replacing such concrete shall be approved by
the Engineer.
F. Classification
Unless otherwise shown on the plans: Class A concrete shall
be used for curb and gutter, fillets, drainage channels,
medians, inlet boxes, headwalls and sidewalks; Class C
concrete shall be used for concrete paving and valley
gutters constructed in thoroughfare and collector streets;
Class E concrete shall be used for valley gutters on streets
other than thoroughfares and collectors and for alley
returns, alley paving and reinforced gutter sections; Class
F concrete is used for railroad sections.
G. Mixing
All aggregates shall be accurately weighed or measured by
volume. The concrete shall be mixed in an approved batch
mixer equipped with an accurate water measuring tank, and
shall be mixed for one and one-half minutes after all
material is in the mixer. "Ready Mixed" or "Transit
Mixed" concrete may be used. If used, it shall conform to
these specifications and ASTM C-94 and TxDOT Item 522.
After mixing, the concrete shall be transported to the
forms in a manner which will prevent separation or
segregation of the aggregates and shall be placed without
undue delay. It shall be deposited as nearly as
practicable in its final position in order to avoid
M-4
r
rehandling or flowing of the concrete. No water shall be
added to the concrete to facilitate finishincr.
H. Curing Compounds
Compounds used to form an air tight
concrete surface for curing purposes
Item 526 and ASTM C-309.
3. REINFORCING MATERIALS
A. Wire Mesh
membrane over fresh
shall conform to TxDOT
Wire mesh reinforcing shall conform to ASTM A-185.
Mesh reinforcement shall be of the size shown on the plans.

The mixture produced from each type of mixer shall
not vary from the specified mixture by more than
the tolerances herein specified.
The asphaltic mixture from each type of mixer shall
be at a"temperature between 3000 F and 3500 F when
discharged from the mixer. The Engineer will
approve the temperature within, the above limitations,
and the mixture when discharged from
the mixer shall not vary from this selected
M-20
temperature more than 250 F. but in no case shall
the temperature exceed 360° F.
H. Construction Methods
i.Temperature Requirements
a. HMAC - November 1 until April 1
(1) The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the
air temperature is below 55° F and falling.
(2) The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 50° F and rising.
b. HMAC - April 1 until November 1
(1) The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the
air temperature is below 50° F and falling.
(2) The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 450 F and rising.
r c. Asphalt Stabilized Base
(1) The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the
air temperature is below 450 F and falling.
(2) The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 400 F and rising.
The Engineer may use his discretion to require a cover over
the asphaltic mixture when being hauled from the plant to
the job site. The air temperature shall be taken in the
shade away from artificial heat or as reported by the
National Weather Service on their hourly report (Telephone
No. 762-0141). It is further provided that the prime coat,
tack coat or asphalt stabilized base shall be placed only
when the general weather conditions and temperature and
moisture conditions of the subbase or subgrade, in the
opinion of the Engineer, are suitable.
If, after being discharged from the mixer and prior to
placing, the temperature of the asphaltic mixture is 250 F
or more below the temperature approved by the Engineer, all
or any part of the load may be rejected and payment will not
be made for the rejected material.
1. Prime Coat
r- The prime coat shall consist of an application of 0.25
gallons per square yard of MC asphalt. The asphalt
stabilized base shall not be applied on a previously
primed course until the prime coat has completely cured
H
to the satisfaction of the Engineer.
r" M-21
i
2. Tack Coat
Before the asphaltic mixture is laid, the surface upon
which the tack coat is to be placed shall be cleaned
thoroughly to the satisfaction of the Engineer. The
surface shall be given a uniform application of tack coat
using asphaltic materials of this specification. This
tack coat shall be applied, as directed by the Engineer,
with an approved sprayer at a rate not to exceed 0.10
gallon per square yard of surface. Where the mixture
will adhere to the surface on which it is to be placed
without the use of a tack coat, the tack coat may be
eliminated by the Engineer. All contact surfaces of
curbs and structures and all joints shall be painted with
a thin uniform coat of the asphaltic material meeting the
requirements for tack coat. During the application of
tack coat, care shall be taken to prevent splattering of
adjacent pavement, curb & gutter and structures. The
tack coat shall be rolled with a pneumatic tire roller
when directed by the Engineer.
3. Transporting
The asphaltic mixture, prepared as specified above shall
be hauled to the work in tight vehicles previously
cleaned of all foreign material. The dispatching of the
vehicles shall be arranged so that all material delivered
may be placed, and all rolling shall be completed during
daylight hours. The inside of the truck body may be
given a light coat of oil, lime slurry or other material
satisfactory to the Engineer, if necessary, to prevent
mixture from adhering to the body. In cool weather or
for long hauls, canvas covers and insulating of truck
bodies may be required. Vehicles of the semi -trailer
type are prohibited.
4. Placinct
Generally, the asphaltic mixture shall be dumped and
spread on the approved prepared surface with the
specified spreading and finishing machine. When properly
compacted, the finished course will be smooth, of uniform
density, and will conform with the typical sections shown
on the plans and to the lines and grades established by
the Engineer.. During the application of asphaltic
material, care shall be taken to prevent splattering of
adjacent pavement, curb and gutter and structures.
The mixture shall be spread and compacted in layers or
lifts as specified on the plans or as directed by the
Engineer. The sequence of compacting shall be such that
undue displacement of the edge of the course does not
occur. On deep lifts, the edge of the course may be
rolled with a motor grader wheel or similar equipment or
M-22
r
supported by blading a roll of `earth against the edge of
the course prior to compacting the surface.
When the asphaltic mixture is placed in a narrow strip
along the edge of an existing pavement, or used to level
up small areas of an existing pavement or placed in small
irregular areas where the use of a finishing machine is
not practical, the finishing machine may be eliminated
when authorized by the Engineer, provided a satisfactory
surface can be obtained by other approved methods.
I. Compaction
1.As directed by the Engineer, the asphalt stabilized
base shall be compacted thoroughly and uniformly with
the specified rollers. In lieu of the rolling
equipment specified, the Contractor may, upon written
permission from the Engineer, operate other compacting
equipment that will produce equivalent relative
compaction as the specified equipment. If the
substituted compaction equipment fails to produce the
desired compaction as would be expected of the specified
equipment, as determined by the Engineer, its use shall
be discontinued. When directed by the Engineer, the
initial compaction shall be accomplished with pneumatic
tire rollers.
2. When rolling with the three wheel, tandem, or vibratory
rollers, rolling shall start longitudinally at the
sides and proceed toward the center of the pavement,
overlapping on successive trips by at least half the
width of the rear wheel unless otherwise directed by the
Engineer. Alternate trips of the roller shall be
r,
slightly different in length. On super -elevated curves,
rolling shall begin at the low side and progress toward
the high side unless otherwise directed by the Engineer.
When rolling with vibratory steel wheel rollers, the
r"
manufacturer's recommendation shall be followed unless
L
directed otherwise by the Engineer. Rolling with
pneumatic -tire roller shall be, done as directed by the
Engineer. Rolling shall be continued until no further
increase in density can be obtained and all roller marks
are eliminated. The motion of the roller shall be slow
r,
enough at all times to avoid displacement of the mixture.
If any displacement occurs, it shall be corrected at once
by the use of a rake, and of fresh mixtures where
required. The roller shall not be allowed to stand on
any portion of the pavement mixture which has not been
fully compacted. To prevent adhesion of the mixture to
the roller, the wheels shall be kept thoroughly moistened
•-
with water, but an excess of water will not be permitted.
All rollers must be in good mechanical condition.
Necessary precautions shall be taken to prevent the
dropping of diesel, gasoline, oil, grease or other
ro
M-23
foreign matter on the roadway, either when the rollers
are in operation or when standing.
3. Hand Tampincq
The edges of the pavement along curbs, headers and
similar structures, and all places not accessible to
the roller, or in such positions as will not allow
thorough compaction with the rollers, shall be
thoroughly compacted with lightly oiled tamps.
J. Surface Finish
The compacted materialshallconform to the typical cross
sections, lines and grades as shown on plans and directed by
the Engineer and shall have a smooth surface with a
reasonably uniform texture acceptable to the Engineer.
Unacceptable finished surfaces may be corrected by the
placement of additional mixture, all at the expense of the
Contractor.
K. Protection Of The Work And Openincr To Traffic
The completed asphalt stabilized base course shall be opened
to traffic as provided by the plans and as directed by the
Engineer. All construction traffic allowed on the base
course shall comply with the State laws governing traffic on
highways unless otherwise authorized by the Engineer. When
another roadway surface is provided for the traveling public
and construction traffic through the project, the Engineer
may prohibit traffic on the completed base course.
L. Surface Density Test
City personnel will provide density test and results
throughout the construction process at no cost to the
Contractor.
Samples of the completed pavement shallberemoved from
locations designated by the Engineer to enable him to
determine the composition, compaction, and density of the
pavement. Samples for each day or fraction thereof shall be
taken by City personnel. The Contractor shall replace the
pavement removed from core holes at no cost to the City. If
the pavement is deficient in composition, compaction, or
thickness, satisfactory correction shall be made as directed
by the Engineer.

* The asphalt supplier shall furnish the City of Lubbock
testing laboratory samples of the base asphalt and latex
emulsion used in making the finished product.
** A 350 gram sample of the asphalt cement -latex additive
blend is stored for 48 hours at 325°F. Upon completion of
the storage time the sample is visually examined for
separation of rubber from the asphalt (smoothness and
homogeneity). If a question still exists about the
.separation of rubber a sample will be taken from the top and
bottom for Infrared Spectroscopy analysis to determine
actual rubber contents. A difference of 0.4% or more
between the top and bottom concentration levels constitutes
separation. When the latex modified asphalt is to be used
in asphaltic concrete and the latex additive is introduced
separately at the mix plant, either by injection into the
asphalt line or into the mixer, the compatibility and
stability of the asphalt cement -latex additive combination
shall be determined by preparing a laboratory blend and
storing it for five hours at 325°F. Upon completion of
storage time, the sample shall be examined as indicated
above.

D. Laboratory Control
If the Contractor or supplier wishes to use a material or
location not previously approved by the City of Lubbock, he
will be required to request approval in writing of the
material not less than 60 days prior to anticipated use of
the material. The City of Lubbock laboratory test results
shall be the sole consideration for approval of materials,
mix designs, adequacy of procedures, etc.. The results of
such testing shall be evaluated and final approval given by
the City Engineer.
The City of Lubbock will utilize its own testing laboratory
to monitor the plant mixing for Black Base and Hot Mix.
This laboratory control will be provided by the City of
Lubbock. A representative of the City Engineer will be at
the plant with full authority to control the mixing
operation.
In those instances where irregularities occur and the limits
of the specification are exceeded for aggregate, black base,
or hot mix, appropriate corrections will be required.
E. Tolerances
The Engineer will designate the exact grading of the
aggregate and asphalt content to be used in the mixture (Job
Mix Formula). The paving mixture produced shall not vary
from the designated grading and asphalt content by more than
the tolerances allowed herein and shall remain within the
limitation of the master grading specified. The respective
tolerances, based on the percent by weight of the mixture,
are listed as follows:

3. Sampling and Testing
It is the intent of this specification that the mixture
will be designed to produce a mixture of optimum density
and stability, as determined by the Engineer, when tested
in accordance with these specifications and applicable
ASTM procedures.
Samples of the completed pavement shall be removed from
locations designated by the Engineer to enable him to
determine the composition, compaction, and density of the
pavement. Samples for each day or fraction thereof shall
be taken by City personnel. The Contractor shall replace
the pavement removed from core holes at no cost to the
City. If the pavement is deficient in composition,
compaction, or thickness, satisfactory correction shall
be made as directed by the Engineer.
Tests on Marshall specimens shall be made twice daily or
as directed by the Engineer to retain job control. The
mixture shall comply with the requirements of Table (2)
above when tested in accordance with the Marshall method
procedures contained in Chapter III of the Asphalt
Institute's Manual Series No. 2 (MS-2), current addition.
If the laboratory stability and/or field tests of the
M-34
mixture produced has a value lower than that specified,
and in the opinion of the Engineer is not due to change
in source or quality of materials, production may
P" proceed, and the mix shall be changed until the
laboratory/field tests equals or exceeds the specified
values. If there is, in the opinion of the Engineer, an
apparent change in any material from that used in the
design mixtures, production will be discontinued until a
new design mixture is determined by trial mixes.
11. SILO STORAGE
A silo storage system may be used during the normal day's
operation. The mixture, coming out of the silo storage must be
of equal quality and temperature to that coming out of the
mixing plant. Any operation that has tendency to segregate
the mixture or fails to maintain a thorough and uniform
mixture and temperature shall not be used. If any load of
mixture coming out of the silo storage system fails to meet
the asphalt specifications or gradation requirements, then the
total contents of the silo storage system shall be condemned.
12. BARRICADES AND SIGNS
r
Barricades shall be constructed of clean, sound lumber, shall
` be of first-class workmanship, and all surfaces above ground
shall be painted with an approved brand of white paint to
secure thorough coverage and a uniform white color. In no
case shall less than two coats be used. The paint for
barricade stripes shall be reflective orange and reflective
white. All dimensions, striping, lighting, painting, coloring
and placement of barricades shall be in accordance with the
details and design as set forth in the Texas Manual on UNIFORM
P" TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES for Street and Highways, Part VI.
The Contractor shall maintain each barricade in a neat
acceptable condition and furnish replacements when necessary

DETAILS OF CONSTRUCTION
1. CONCRETE
A. CURB AND GUTTER (CLASS A -CONCRETE)
Description
r. This item shall consist of Portland Cement 24" concrete curb
and gutter or 24" separate gutter as shown on the plans or
as directed by the Engineer, and shall be constructed of
Class A concrete. Included in the curb and gutter item is
the subgrade preparation and the filling and shaping of the
area behind the curb.
1. Curb Openings
Separate gutter sections will be placed only across
alleys and driveways presently in use or where definitely
planned for future property improvements. It shall be
the responsibility of the Contractor to contact the
property owner and determine the proper location of
driveways before curb and gutter is constructed. All
gutters across new or proposed driveways must meet the
requirements set forth in the City Sidewalk and Driveway
Regulations, Ordinance Number 1466 and amendments thereto
and gutters across existing driveways will be required to
conform to said regulations if no hardship to the
existing property improvements is involved. In any
event, all curb and gutter to be poured must have the
Engineer's approval as to driveway widths and location,
in addition to the section, and line and grade approval
before any pour is started on any curb and gutter unit.
2.Excavation and Subgrade
Excavation for the curb and gutter shall be made with the
excavation of the entire street. The excavation shall be
done to the lines and grades set by the Engineer and in
such a manner as to require a maximum 1/2" (inch) of fill
to bring the subgrade to the correct elevation. Subgrade
that is undercut 1" (one inch) or more shall be brought
to the correct elevation by scarifying, wetting, disking,
blading, rolling and compacting to 95k Standard Proctor
Density (ASTM D-698) with pneumatic rolling to correct
elevation prior to setting forms. Before completion of
curb and gutter, all traffic signs and street name
markers found in the way of paving will immediately be
relocated behind the proposed curb and gutter by the
Contractor.
�, D-1
3. Setting Forms
Forms for concrete and gutter shall be set to the lines
and grades established by the Engineer after the subgrade
has been prepared. The forms shall be held together and
in place in such a manner that they will not move during
the placing and working of the concrete. The forms shall
be cleaned and oiled prior to pouring concrete. Face
forms and construction joints (removable metal plates)
shall be set to hold the concrete for the curb in place
until it is to be finished.
Forms for radii shall be set in the same manner as the
straight forms except that no face form will be required
if a true section is obtained by other methods. The
radii forms shall be set in such a manner that the curve
will be true.
4. Placement (Including Making Joints)
Sufficient concrete shall be placed to allow for
shrinkage and extra material for finishing, and the
concrete shall be floated and troweled to the approximate
section, and only after the concrete receives a partial
set shall the face forms be removed. The section shall
then be shaped to the true cross-section by the use of a
metal -screed which is shaped to the true cross-section.
A "mule" screed shall be used only to shape to true
cross-section when topping material is provided and
pushed along on the front edge of the mule.
Curb and gutter shall be constructed with an expansion —
joint at the tangent point of each return at
intersections and at intervals of no more than forty (40)
feet between the intersections. Forty feet intervals may -
be waived if curb and gutter machine is used. Expansion
joints shall be of the material hereinbefore specified.
Construction joints formed by removable metal plates _
(templates) accurately shaped to the cross-section of the
curb and gutter shall be located at the mid -point of each
section between expansion joints or as directed by the
Engineer. Contraction joints shall be placed at ten foot r
intervals. All joints shall be perpendicular to the
surface of the concrete and to the axis of the section.
5. Finishing
A ten (10) foot metal "straight -edge" shall be used to
strike the flow line to grade, continuously along the `
flow line of the gutter. This operation shall be
followed with a four (4) foot spirit level to assure the
D-2 -
r..
P
continuous grade down the flow -line the length of the
gutter.
Curb and gutter shall be finished uniformly by wood
troweling to an accurate cross-section. Extra water will
not be added for finishing. The final finish will be
accomplished with a brush, the last stroke being one from
the back of curb to the lip of gutter. Both sides of all
joints, the lip of gutter, and the back edge of the curb
shall be finished with a 1/4" radius edging tool before
the final brushing. Curves at the top and bottom of the
section shall present a uniform appearance without
"waves" in the face of the curb or "pockets" in the
gutter.
Concrete shall
not be poured during sand storms.
Concrete shall
be protected to maintain temperature of
not less than
50 degrees F. for five days after
placement. If
aggregate and water are heated, they shall
not be heated
placed when the
above 90 degrees F. Concrete shall not be
ambient temperature is less than 40
degrees F. It
shall be the responsibility of the
Contractor to
anticipate as nearly as possible changes in
weather conditions
which would affect the placement and
protection of
the concrete, and be prepared to protect
freshly placed
concrete when sudden changes in the
weather make such
protection necessary.
6. Removing Forms
Special care is required of the Contractor in his
removing of pins and of forms. Pins shall be pulled from
the ground to free forms. If hammering is found to be
necessary, a light, one (1) pound hammer shall be used.
The Contractor shall not place forms or pins on newly
finished concrete. Loading and unloading of forms from a
truck shall be executed by two workmen. It is the duty
of the Contractor to remove any warped forms found in any
section of forms, before it is poured. When forms are
pointed out as defective, those forms shall then be
removed from the job site and not returned until they
have been inspected by the Engineer.
7.Machine Laid Curb and Gutter
Class A concrete shall be used for machine laid curb and
gutter. The slump of the concrete shall be as directed
by the Engineer. Reinforcing steel, if required, shall
conform to Section 3 under Materials of Construction.
The curb and gutter shall be laid by an extrusion machine
approved by the Engineer. Immediately prior to placing
the curb and gutter, the previously approved. foundation
r shall be thoroughly cleaned.

The line for top of curb shall be maintained from a
guideline set by the Contractor from survey marks
established by the Engineer. Curb outline shall strictly
conform to the details shown on the plans.
The approved mix shall be fed into the machine in such a
manner and at such consistency that the finished curb
will present a well compacted mass with a surface free
from voids and honeycombs and true to established shape,
line, and grade.
Additional surface finishing shall be performed
immediately after extrusion. Extra water will not be
added for finishing. Unless otherwise specified by the
Engineer, joints shall be constructed as follows:
Expansion joints shall be located at each end radius at
intersections and alley returns and at the beginning of
the pour, and dummy grooved joints shall be spaced at 10
foot intervals between the expansion joints.
8. Curincr
All concrete work shall be covered with heavy water -proof
type paper to prevent loss of moisture and to prevent
direct sunlight from striking the concrete, as soon as it
has set sufficiently enough to prevent marking.
In lieu of this method of curing, the curb and gutter may
be cured by applying a liquid membrane coating to all
exposed surfaces, provided such material and method is
first approved by the Engineer.
9. Filling Behind Curb
After the forms are removed and the concrete has cured,
the Contractor shall fill the area behind the curb with
top soil. The area between the sidewalk and the curb or
property line and curb, if no sidewalk exists, shall be
leveled and sloped toward the curb in a manner
satisfactory to the property owner and/or Engineer. Fill
should be done prior to placement of base materials.
10.Replacement of Damacted Curb and Gutter or Gutter

specified by the plans or as approved by the Engineer.
Deformed wire may be used for tie bars and load transfer
bars that require bending.
When fabricated steel bar or rod mats are specified, the
mats shall meet the requirements of ASTM A-184.
10. Mechanical Vibratory Equipment
All concrete placed for pavement shall be consolidated by
approved mechanical vibrators designed to vibrate the
concrete internally. The internal type will be used for
full -depth placement. Vibratory members shall extend
across the pavement practically to, but shall not come in
contact with the side forms. Mechanically operated
vibrators shall be operated in such a manner as to not
interfere with the transverse or longitudinal joints.
Separate vibratory units shall be operated at
sufficiently close intervals to provide uniform vibration
and consolidation to the entire width of the pavement.
The frequency in air of the internal spud type vibratory
units shall be not less than 8,000 cycles per minute and
not less than 5,000 cycles per minute for tube types and
the method of operation shall be as directed by the
Engineer. The Contractor shall have a satisfactory
tachometer available for checking the vibratory elements.
The pavement vibrators shall not be used to level or
spread the concrete but shall be used only for purposes
of consolidation. The vibrators will not be operated
where the surface of the concrete, as spread, is below
the elevation of the finished surface of the pavement,
except for the first lift of concrete where the double
strike off method of placement is employed, and the
vibrators shall not be operated for more than 15 seconds
while the machine upon which they are installed is
standing still.
Approved hand manipulated mechanical vibrators shall be
furnished in the number required for provision of proper
consolidation of the concrete along forms, at joints and
in areas not covered by mechanically controlled
vibrators. These vibrators shall be sufficiently rigid
to insure control of the operation position of the
vibrating head.
r
D-13
Complete and satisfactory consolidation of the concrete
pavement is a most important requirement of this
specification. Cores taken shall be carefully examined
for voids, honeycombing or other evidence of incomplete
consolidation. If such evidence is present, changes in
the consolidation procedures and/or equipment will be
made to insure satisfactory consolidation.
11. Finishin
Machine -Finishing. All concrete pavement shall be
finished mechanically with approved power -driven
machines, except as herein provided. Hand -finishing will
be permitted on the transition from a crowned section to
a superelevated section without crown or curves, and on
straight line superelevation sections less than 300 feet
in length. Hand -finishing will also be permitted on that
portion of a widened pavement outside the normal pavement
width, on sections where the pavement width is not
uniform, or required monolithic widths are greater than
that of available finishing machines.
Machine -finishing of pavement shall include the._use of
power -driven spreaders, power -driven vibrators, power -
driven transverse strike -off, and screed, or such
alternate equipment as may be substituted and approved by
the Engineer.
All concrete shall be consolidated by a mechanical
vibrator. As soon as the concrete has been spread
between the forms, the approved mechanical vibrator shall
be operated to consolidate the concrete and remove all
voids. Hand -manipulated vibrators shall be used for
areas not covered by the mechanical vibratory unit.
The transverse finishing machine shall first be operated
to compact and finish the pavement to the required
section and grade, without surface voids. The machine
shall be operated over each area as many times and at
such intervals as directed. At least two trips will be
required and the last trip over a given area shall be a
continuous run of not less than 40 feet. After
completion of finishing with the transverse finishing
machine a transverse drag float may be used.
The consistency of the concrete as placed should allow
the completion of all finishing operations without the
addition of water to the surface. When field conditions
are such that additional moisture is needed for the final
concrete surface finishing operation, the required water
shall be applied to the surface by fog spray only and
shall be held to a minimum.
D-14
After finishing is complete and the concrete still
workable, the surface shall be tested for trueness with
�.
an approved 10-foot steel straightedge. The straightedge
shall be operated from the side of the pavement, placed
parallel to the pavement centerline and passed across the
slab to reveal any high spots or depression. The
r
straightedge shall be advanced along the pavement in
".
successive stages of not more than one-half its length.
Practically perfect contact of the straightedge with the
�-
surface will be required, and -the pavement shall be
leveled to this condition, in order to insure conformity
with the surface test required below, after the pavement
has fully hardened. Any correction of the surface
required shall be accomplished by adding concrete if
required and by operating the longitudinal float over the
area. The surface test with the straightedge shall then
be repeated.
For one -lane pavement placement and uniform widening, the
�^
equipment for machine -finishing of concrete pavement
f
shall be as directed by the Engineer but shall not exceed
the requirements of these specifications.
After completion of the straightedge operation, as soon
l
as construction operations permit, texture shall be
applied with 1/6-inch wide metal tines with clear spacing
between the tines being not less than 1/4 inch nor more
than 1/2 inch. If approved by the Engineer, other
equipment and methods may be used, provided that a
surface texture meeting the specified requirements is
obtained. The texture shall be applied transversely. It
is the intent that the average texture depth resulting
from the number of tests directed by the Engineer be not
s
less than 0.060 inch with a minimum texture depth of
0.050 inch for any one test when tested in accordance
with Test Method Tex-436-A. Should the texture depth
i-
fall below that intended, the finishing procedures shall
be revised to produce the desired texture.
12. Proportionincr of Concrete
Concrete shall be composed of Portland cement, fine
aggregate, coarse aggregate, mineral filler and/or
admixture if used and water, mixed in proportions as
!
approved by the Engineer in the mix design as submitted
by a commercial laboratory and in the manner set forth in
this specification. On the basis of job and laboratory
I
investigations of the proposed materials, the Engineer
will fix the proportions by weight of water, coarse
p
aggregate, fine aggregate, cement, admixture and mineral
filler where required, in order to produce concrete of
ll
the specified strength and workability.
r+ D-15
13. Concrete Strength
The concrete mix will be designed with the intention of
producing a minimum average flexural strength (Modulus of
rupture) of 600 pounds per square inch and compressive
strength of 3000 psi at 7 days and/or a 28 day
compressive strength of 3,600 pounds per square inch.
The coarse -aggregate factor (dry, loose volume of coarse
aggregate per unit volume of concrete) shall not exceed
0.85. Unless otherwise shown on plans the concrete shall
contain not less than six ,sacks of cement per cubic yard
of concrete. The water -cement ratio (net gallons of
water per sack of 94 pound cement) shall not exceed 6.0
gallon/sack . Concrete specimens shall be prepared, cured
and tested as outlined in TxDOT Bulletin C-11.
14. Workability of Concrete
Concrete shall be uniformly plastic, cohesive and
workable. Workable concrete is defined as concrete which
can be placed without honeycomb and without voids in the
surface of the pavement. Workability shall be obtained
without producing a condition such that free water
appears on the surface of the slab when being finished as
specified. Where water appears on the surface of the
concrete after finishing and this condition cannot be
corrected by reasonable adjustment in the batch design,
the bleeding will be immediately corrected by one of the
following measures or a combination of two or more of the
following listed measures:
a. Redesign of the batch
b. Addition of mineral filler to fine aggregate
C. Increase of cement content
In the event that the measures taken do not eliminate
the bleeding immediately, concrete placement operations
will be suspended, as directed by the Engineer, and will
remain suspended, until such time as additional trial
mixes demonstrate that.a non -bleeding batch design has
been achieved. Failing to achieve a satisfactory
laboratory batch design the Contractor will be required
to use different materials and to submit samples thereof
for additional trial mixes and pilot beamsasspecified
in TxDOT Bulletin C-11.
The mix will be designed with the intention of producing
concrete which will have a slump of 1-1/2 inches when
tested in accordance with TxDOT Bulletin C-11. The slump
shall not be less than'l inch nor more than 3 inches.
D-16
15. Mix Design
Prior to the beginning of the concrete placement, and
thereafter before any change in source or characteristics
of any of the ingredients except mineral filler,
sufficient compression tests using various quantities of
cement and aggregates proposed for use shall be.supplied
the Engineer for consideration.
Mixes will be designed and made in sufficient number to
represent a wide range of water -cement ratios. These
mixes shall comply with the requirements herein
prescribed for workability. From these preliminary tests
the water -cement ratio required to produce concrete of
the specified strength will be selected by the Engineer.
The Contractor may at any time present in writing a
suggested mix design and the Engineer will make the tests
necessary to determine its acceptability under these
specification requirements.
For mixing the concrete to be used in making the
j" preliminary test specimens, the Contractor shall furnish
and operate the mixer approved for use on this project.
A minimum one cubic yard batch shall be mixed or a batch
r- of sufficient size to afford proper mixing, whichever is
the greater. In lieu of the above mixer and procedure,
the Contractor may furnish a portable mixer of sufficient
POW rated capacity to mix a minimum three -sack batch; in
x which case, the batch mixed for the preliminary test
shall not be less than the rated capacity of the mixer
furnished.
No additional compensation will be allowed for equipment,
materials or labor involved in making preliminary test
specimens.
After the mix proportions and water -cement ratio required
to produce concrete of the specified strength have been
determined, placing of the concrete may be started.
Type I cement shall have a specified surface area within
a range of 1,600 to 1,900 square centimeters per gram. A
change in the specific surface of the cement of more than
100 square centimeters per gram may require a new mix
design.
16. Subgrade and Forms
Preparation of Subarade.
Rolling and sprinkling shall be performed when and to the
extent directed, and the roadbed shall be completed to or
1
D-17
above the plane of the typical sections shown on the
plans and the lines and grades established by the
Engineer.
Drainage of the roadbed shall be maintained at all times.
Sealed or treated subgrade cut in the preparation of the
subgrade or setting of pavement forms shall be resealed
or the subgrade restored to the original conditions as
directed by the Engineer. See Section D-2.
The subgrade shall be maintained in a smooth, compacted
condition in conformity with the required section and
established grade until the pavement is placed and shall
be kept thoroughly wetted down sufficiently in advance of
placing any pavement to insure its being in a firm and
moist condition for at least 2 inches below the prepared
surface. Sufficient subgrade shall always be prepared in
advance to insure satisfactory prosecution of the work.
No equipment or hauling shall be permitted on the
prepared subgrade, except by special permission of the
Engineer, which will be granted only in exceptional cases
and only where suitable protection in the form of two-ply
timber mats or other approved material is provided.
17. Placing and Removing Forms
The subgrade under the forms shall be firm and cut true
to grade so that each form section when placed will be
firmly in contact for its whole length and base width,
and exactly at the established grade. Forms shall be _
staked with at least three pins for each 10-foot section.
A pin shall be placed at each side of every joint. Form
sections shall be tightly joined and keyed to prevent
relative displacement. Forms shall be cleaned and oiled
each time they are used. I
Forms shall be set for a sufficient distance in advance
of the point where concrete is being placed to permit a
finished and approved subgrade length of not less than
300 feet ahead of the mixing. Conformity of the grade _
and alignment of forms shall be checked immediately prior
to placing concrete, and all necessary corrections made
by the Contractor. where any forms have been disturbed
or any subgrade becomes unstable, the forms shall be
reset and rechecked. In exceptional cases, the Engineer
may require stakes driven to the grade of the bottom of
the forms. Sufficient stability of the forms to support _
the equipment operated thereon and to withstand its
vibration without springing or settlement shall be
required. If forms settle and/or deflect over 1/8 inch
under finishing operations, paving operations shall be
stopped and the forms shall be reset to line and grade.
D-18
r
Forms shall remain in place for not less than 12 hours
after the concrete has been placed. They shall be
carefully removed in such a manner that little or no
r'
damage will be done to the edge of the pavement. Any
G
damage resulting from this operation shall be immediately
repaired. After the forms have been removed,.the ends of
all joints shall be cleaned, and any honeycombed areas
pointed up with approved mortar. Immediately after
pointing is completed, the form trench, if used, shall be
r_
filled with earth from the shoulders in such a manner as
f
to shed water from rainfall or curing away from the edge
of the pavement. On completion of the required curing,
the subgrade or shoulders adjacent to the pavement shall
be graded in a condition to maintain drainage.
Allowable grade revisions shall in no way affect the
governing finishing and surface requirements of the
completed pavement.
All grade revisions shall be established by the Engineer.
No additional payment over the contract unit price will
be made for any pavement of a thickness exceeding that
required on the plans as a result of adjustment of the
forms.
I. CONCRETE MIXING AND PLACING
1. Mixina
The aggregates, mineral filler if required, cement and
water shall be measured separately, introduced into the
mixer, and mixed for a period of not less than 50 seconds
nor more than 90 seconds, measured from the time the last
aggregate enters the drum to the time discharge of the
concrete begins. The required water shall be introduced
into the mixing drum during the first 15 seconds of
mixing. The entire contents of the drum shall be
discharged before any materials of the succeeding batch
are introduced.
The Engineer may increase the minimum mixing time to that
necessary to produce thoroughly mixed concrete based on
inspection or appropriate uniformity tests. The mixing
time may be varied at any time necessary to produce
acceptable concrete.
`.. If Ready -Mix concrete is used, the concrete shall be
i discharged into the specified hauling equipment and
delivered to the road site. If truck agitators are used,
the concrete shall be continuously agitated at not less
r" than one nor more than six rpm as directed by the
I
Engineer.
r.. D-19
t
The initial batch of concrete mixed after each time the
mixer is washed out shall be enriched by additional
mortar. The additional mortar shall be one sack of
cement and three parts of sand.
2. Placing
Any concrete not placed as herein prescribed within 30
minutes after mixing shall be rejected and disposed of as
directed except as provided otherwise herein. Except by
specific written authorization of the Engineer, concrete
shall not be placed when the temperature is below 400F,
the temperature being taken in the shade and away from
artificial heat.
When such permission is granted, the Contractor shall
furnish an approved enclosure, such as canvas -covered
framework, to enclose and protect all pavement so placed,
and shall maintain the temperature of the air surrounding
the concrete at not less than 50OF for not less than 5
days. When concrete is being placed in cold weather,
other than under the conditions stated above, the
Contractor shall have available a sufficient supply of an
approved covering material to immediately protect
concrete if the air temperature falls to 320F, or below,
before concrete has been placed 4 hours. Such protection
shall remain in place during the period the temperature
continues below 320F or for a period of not more than 5
days. Neither salt nor other chemical admixtures shall
be added to the concrete to prevent freezing. The
Contractor shall be responsible for the quality and
strength of concrete under cold weather conditions and
any concrete damage by freezing shall be removed and
replaced at his expense. Concrete shall not be placed
before sunrise and shall not.be placed later than will
permit the finishing of the pavement during sufficient
natural light.
Concrete shall be placed only on approved subgrade or
sub -base, and unless otherwise indicated on plans, the
full width of the pavement shall be constructed
monolithically. The concrete shall be deposited on the
subgrade or sub -base in such manner as to require as
little rehandling as possible. Where hand spreading is
necessary, concrete shall be distributed to the required
depth by use of shovels. The use of rakes will not be
permitted. Workmen will not be permitted to walk in the
concrete with any earth or foreign material on their
boots or shoes. The placing of concrete shall be rapid
and continuous.
Concrete shall be distributed
consolidated and finished, the
plans will be obtained at all
to such depth that when
slab thickness required by
points and the surface
D-20
M
shall not, at any point, be below the established grade.
Special care shall be exercised in placing and spreading
r. concrete against forms and at all joints to prevent the
forming of honeycombs and voids.
4
If in the opinion of the Engineer, the temperature, wind
and/or humidity conditions are such that the quality of
1 the concrete will not be adversely affected, the
specified placing time may be extended to a maximum of 45
minutes.
3. Reinforcing Steel
All reinforcing steel, including steel wire fabric
reinforcement, tie bars, and dowel bars shall be
accurately placed and secured in position in accordance
with details shown on plans. Reinforcing bars shall be
securely wired together at alternate intersections,
following a pattern approved by the Engineer, and at all
splices, and shall be securely wired to each dowel
intersected. When wire fabric is used, it shall be
securely wired together at all splices and to each dowel
intersected. Tie bars shall be installed in the required
position by the method and device shown on plans or by
approved method and device equivalent thereto.
Tightly adhered scale or rust which resists removal by
vigorous wire brushing need not be removed except that
excessive loss of section to the reinforcement due to
rust shall be cause for rejection. Excessive loss of
section shall be defined as loss of section to the extent
that the reinforcement will no longer meet the physical
requirements for the size and grade of steel specified.
Where plans require an assembly of parts at pavement
joints, the assembly shall be completed,.placed at
required location and elevation, and all parts rigidly
secured in required position by the method and devices
shown on plans. Dowel bars shall be accurately installed
in joint assemblies in accordance with plans, each
parallel to the pavement surface and to the center line
of the pavement, and shall be rigidly secured in required
position by such means (as shown on plans) that will
prevent their displacement during placing and finishing
of the concrete.
4. Joints
` When the placing of concrete is stopped, a bulkhead of
sufficient cross sectional area to prevent deflection,
accurately notched to receive the load transmission
i devices or dowels if required, and shaped accurately to
the cross section of the pavement shall be provided and
r" installed as a back-up for the joint filler and rigidly
r D-21
secured in required position to permit accurate finishing
of the concrete up to the joint. After concrete has been
finished to the joint, formation of the joint seal space
and finishing of the joint shall be executed. The back-
up bulkhead shall remain in place until immediately prior
to the time when concrete placing is resumed, when it
shall be carefully removed in such manner that no element
of the joint assembly will be disturbed. The exposed
portion of the joint assembly shall be free of adherent
concrete, dirt or other material at the time placing of
concrete is resumed.
If necessary for proper installation of joint sealer,
excessive spalling of the joint groove shall be repaired
to the satisfaction of the Engineer in the manner which
he prescribes.
Careful workmanship shall be exercised in the
construction of all joints to insure that the concrete
sections are completely separated by an open joint or by
the joint materials and to insure that the joints will be
true to the outline indicated.
5. Weakened Plane Joints
Weakened plane joints shall consist of transverse
contraction joints and longitudinal joints and shall be
sawed as specified on the plans or as directed by the
Engineer. When the joints are sawed, the saw shall be
power driven, shall be manufactured especially for the
purpose of sawing concrete, and shall be capable of
performing the work. Saw blades shall be designed to
make a clean smooth cut having a width and depth of cut
as detailed on the plans. Tracks adequately anchored,
chalk, string line or other approved methods shall be
used to provide true alignment of the joints. The
concrete saw shall be maintained in good operating
condition and the Contractor shall keep a stand-by power
saw on the project at all times when concrete operations
are underway.
If membrane curing is used, the portion of the seal which
has been disturbed by sawing operations shall be restored
by the,Contractor by spraying the area with additional
curing seal.
6. Contraction Joints
Transverse contraction joints shall be formed or sawed
joints perpendicular to the centerline and surface of the
pavement. Where sawed joints are used, contraction
joints at approximately 10 to 15-foot intervals shall be
sawed as soon as sawing can be accomplished without
damage to the pavement and before 12 hours after the
D-22
r
rconcrete has been placed, the exact time to be approved
by the Engineer. The remaining contraction joints shall
be sawed in a uniform pattern as directed by the
Engineer, and they shall be completed before uncontrolled
cracking of the pavement takes place. All joints shall
be completed before permitting traffic to use the
pavement.
7. Longitudinal Joints
Longitudinal joints shall be sawed within two days after
construction of the pavement. Sawing shall. not cause
damage to the pavement and the grooves shall be cut with
a minimum of spalling. No traffic (including
construction traffic) shall be permitted on the pavement
until the longitudinal joint is cut.
8. Joint Sealers
After the joints in the hardened concrete have been
repaired (if necessary) and cleaned to the satisfaction
of the Engineer, the joints will be filled with the W.R.
Meadows SOF-SEAL. After the sealant is installed it will
effectively seal the joints against water, dirt and
stones throughout repeated cycles of expansion and
contraction.
9. Asphalt Board
r, Premolded materials, wherever used, shall be anchored to
the concrete on one side of the joint by means of copper
wire or nails not lighter than No. 12 B&S gage. Such
anchorage shall be sufficient to overcome the tendency of
the material to fall out of the joint.
10. Spreading and Finishing
All concrete pavement shall be consolidated by a
mechanical vibrator. As soon as the concrete has been
spread between the forms, the approved mechanical
vibrator shall be operated to consolidate the concrete
and remove all voids. Hand manipulated vibrators shall
be used for areas not covered by the mechanical vibratory
unit.
After finishing is completed and the concrete still
f., workable, the surface shall be tested for trueness with
an approved 10-foot steel straightedge. The straightedge
shall be operated from the side of the pavement, placed
parallel to the pavement centering and passed across the
slab to reveal any high spots or depressions. The
straightedge shall be advanced along the pavement in
successive stages of not more than one-half its length.
I" Practically perfect contact of the straightedge with the
i-
r.. D-23
surface will be required, and the pavement shall be
leveled to this condition, in order to insure conformity
with the surface test required after the pavement has
fully hardened. Any correction of the surface required
shall be accomplished by adding concrete if required and
by operating the longitudinal float over the area. The
surface test with the straightedge shall then be
repeated. Extra water will not be added for finishing.
After completion of the straightedge operation, the first
pass of the burlap drag shall be made as soon as
construction operations permit and before the water sheen
has disappeared from the surface. This shall be followed
by as many passes as required to produce the desired
texture depth. There shall be no unnecessary delays
between passes. The drag shall be wet during use and
maintained clean and free from encrusted mortar. It is
the intent that the average texture depth resulting from
the number of tests directed by the Engineer be not less
than 0.025 inches with a minimum texture depth of 0.020
inches for any one test. Should .the texture depth fall
below that intended, the finishing procedures shall be
revised to produce the desired texture.
The Contractor shall have available at all times hand
brooms with stiff bristles for the purpose of providing
textures when the pavement surface is in such a condition
that the burlap drag or other methods being employed will
not provide the desired texture.
After completion of dragging and about the time the
concrete becomes -hard; the edge of the slab and joints
shall be carefully finished as directed by the Engineer,
and the pavement shall be left smooth and true to line.
11. Protection of Pavement and Opening to Traffic
The Contractor shall erect and maintain the barricades
required by plans and such other standard and approved
devices as will exclude public traffic and traffic of his
employees and agents from the newly placed pavement for
the periods of time and at locations hereinafter
prescribed by the Engineer. Portions of the roadway, or
crossings of the roadbed required to be maintained open
for use by traffic, shall not be obstructed by the above
required barricades.
The pavement shall be closed to all traffic, including
vehicles of the Contractor, until the concrete is at
least 7 days old. This period of closure to all traffic
may be extended if, in the opinion of the Engineer,
weather or other conditions make it advisable to provide
an extension of the time of protection.
D-24
At the end of the 7 day period and as long thereafter
as
ordered by the Engineer, and if so desired by
the
r,
Contractor, the pavement may opened for use
by
vehicles of the Contractor provided the gross
weight
(vehicle plus load) of such vehicles does not
exceed
14,000 pounds. Such opening, however shall in
no manner
relieve the Contractor from his responsibilities
for the
work. On those sections of the pavement thus
opened to
traffic, all joints shall first be sealed, the
pavement
�-
cleaned and earth placed against the pavement
edges
before permitting vehicles thereon.
After the concrete in any section is 14 days old, or as
long thereafter as ordered by the Engineer, such section
of pavement may be opened to all traffic as required by
plans or when so directed by the Engineer. On those
sections of the pavement thus opened to traffic, all
G joints shall first be sealed, the pavement cleaned, earth
placed against the pavement edges and all other work
r, performed as required for the safety of traffic.
When High Early Strength Concrete, resulting from the use
of Type III cement as required by plans or special
provisions, is used, the pavement may be opened to all
traffic after the concrete is 7 days old, or as long
thereafter as ordered by the Engineer, subject to the
same provisions governing the opening after 14 days as
above prescribed.
Where the Contractor desires to move any equipment not
licensed for operating on public streets, on or across
any pavement opened to traffic, he shall protect the
pavement from all damage by means of two-ply timber mats
of 2 inch stock or runways of heavier material laid on a
I layer of earth, all as approved by the Engineer.
The Engineer may require the opening of pavement to
traffic prior to the minimum time specified above under
conditions of emergency which in his opinion require such
action in the interest of the public. In no case shall
the Engineer order opening of the pavement to traffic
within less than 72 hours after the last concrete in the
section is placed. The Contractor shall remove all
obstructing materials, place earth against the pavement
edges and perform other work involved in providing for
the safety of traffic as required by the Engineer in
ordering emergency opening. Orders for emergency opening
of the pavement to traffic will be issued by the Engineer
in writing.

GUTTERS AND EARTH WORK.
Description
Sub -grade preparation shall include the removal, haul and
disposal of all obstructions, including existing curbs,
gutters, paving materials, base materials, concrete slabs
and other obstructions shown on the plans or as designated
by the Engineer and all scarifying, pulverizing, wetting,
disking, blading and rolling with compactors to a depth of
at least 611 on residential streets and to a depth of 12" on
major thoroughfares and collector streets. Compactors will
be used from the bottom to the finished sub -grade elevation
to compact the subgrade to 9501 Standard Proctor Density
(ASTM D-698) in conformity to the line, grade and sections
as shown on the plans or as established by the Engineer.
After the obstructions have been removed, or in conjunction
with such removal, the street bed and/or alley return
foundation and/or sidewalk foundation shall be excavated and
shaped in conformity with the typical section and to the
line and grades as shown on the plans or as established by
the Engineer.
All unstable or otherwise objectionable material shall be
removed from the subgrade and replaced with approved
material. The excavation shall be done in such a manner as
to require a minimum of fill to bring the subgrade to the
correct elevation. When the subgrade is too low as
initially excavated, the Contractor shall place additional
soil or caliche in layers not exceeding four (411) inches and
compact each layer by moistening and rolling.
1.Scraper Work
The utilization of a scraper for excavation and shaping of
subgrade and base is permitted with exceptions which are
determined by depths of utility lines. Unless otherwise
specified by the Engineer, the scraper shall not exceed 23
cubic yards capacity as rated loaded flush by the
manufacturer.
2. Compaction
Subgrade shall be compacted to 95%
(ASTM D-698) for all improvements
collector street paving. Subgrade
100; Standard Proctor Density for
street paving.
Standard Proctor Density
except thoroughfare and
shall be compacted to
thoroughfare and collector
D-26
Density tests (ASTM D-2922) will be performed and test
rolling will be observed by City inspectors.
Swelling subgrade (soils with plasticity index of 20 or
more) shall be sprinkled as required to provide not less
than optimum moisture during compaction. Other subgrade
soils will be compacted at a moisture content of plus or
minus 2% of optimum moisture or other moisture content
directed by the Engineer.
Test rolling will be accomplished with a 25 ton pneumatic
tire roller or other pneumatic tire roller approved by the
Engineer. The Engineer may require up to six passes of the
roller in determining the condition of the subgrade.
Any soft or unstable areas found by test rolling will be
corrected by removing the soft or unstable material and
replacing it with suitable material compacted to specified
density. The areas so corrected shall be test rolled as
specified above.
3. Intersection
Special care shall be exercised in grading street
intersections where dips are located so that the cross
profiles present a smooth riding surface and so that the
compacted base thickness will not be less than six (611) or
nine (911). Crown section shall begin to decrease 60 feet
back of end of radius for residential streets. Wider street
dips will be blue topped as shown on the detail sheet.
4. Prosecution of the Work
The Contractor may proceed with subgrade preparation on any
schedule he may select except that, unless hindered by
factors beyond his control, not more than seven (7) calendar
days shall elapse between the time subgrade preparation is
begun and the spreading and compacting of the base has
started. Measures shall be taken by the Contractor not to
leave driveways impassable during the night hours.
5. Excess Materials
r Materials excavated in excess of that needed in fill and
backfill behind curb shall be wasted by the Contractor.
Care shall be taken by the Contractor to use only topsoil in
the backfill behind the curbs. The Contractor may dispose
of the surplus excavated material in any manner not
objectionable to the public, and it is his responsibility to
r locate a suitable site for dumping the waste excavation. In
any event, the Contractor shall not dispose of the surplus
materials in any of the lake areas either outside or within
the city limits. Location of disposal sites near any lake
area must be approved by the Engineer.

t�
6. Subgrade for Alley Paving
The preparation of the subgrade for concrete alley paving
shall be done inthesame manner as other subgrade
excavation which requires scarifying, wetting, disking,
blading, rolling, and compacting. The Contractor will be
required to ,excavate around existing improvements such as
gas meter, water meters, poles, etc. Each of these
obstructions shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.
Trees that conflict with the improvements shall be removed
by the Contractor upon approval of the Engineer.
The Contractor shall shape to subgrade to the cross-section
shown on the plans and to the lines and grades established
by the Engineer. After the forms are set and before the
reinforcing is placed, the Contractor shall finally shape
the subgrade so that there will be a minimum thickness of
concrete of five (511) inches at the centerline and seven and
one-half inches (7-1/211) at the outside edges. All areas
where fill material is required shall be compacted. The
subgrade shall be wetted and rolled to secure 9001 Proctor
Density in the upper six (611) making a firm foundation for
the alley paving.
The Contractor will be required to shape the portion of the
alley outside of the limits of the concrete slab so that all
drainage in the alley will be to the invert of the concrete
slab. Excess excavated materials shall be hauled to any
approved location.
Description
Prior to placing any embankment, all "Preparing Right -Of -
Way" and/or "Clearing and Grubbing" operations shall have
been completed on the excavation sources and areas over
which the embankment is to be placed. Stump holes or other
small excavations in the limits of the embankment shall be
backfilled with suitable material and thoroughly tamped by
approved methods before commencing embankment construction.
The surface of the ground, including plowed loosened ground,
or surface roughened by small washes or otherwise, shall be
restored to approximately its original slope by blading or
other methods and where indicated on plans or required by
the Engineer, the ground surface thus prepared shall be
compacted by sprinkling and rolling.
Where embankments are to be placed adjacent to or over
existing roadbeds, the -roadbeds slopes shall be plowed or
scarified to a depth of not less than six (611) inches and
the embankment built up in successive layers, as hereinafter
specified, to the level of the old roadbed before its height
is increased. Then, if directed, the top of the roadbed
D-28
r shall be scarified and recompacted with the next layer of
the new embankment. The total depth of the scarified and
added material shall not exceed the permissible depth of
layer.
Trees, stumps, roots, vegetation, or other unsuitable
materials shall not be placed in embankment.
Except as otherwise required by the plans, all embankment
shall be constructed in layers approximately parallel to the
finished grade of the roadbed and unless otherwise specified
each layer shall be so constructed as to provide a uniform
slope of 1/4" inch per foot from the center line of the
roadbed to the outside.
Embankments shall be constructed to the grade established by
the Engineer and completed embankments shall correspond to
the general shape of the typical sections shown on the plans
and each section of the embankment shall correspond to the
detailed section or slopes established by the Engineer.
After completion of the roadway, it shall be continuously
maintained to its finished section and grade until the
project is accepted.
R Except as otherwise specified, earth embankments shall be
constructed in successive layers for the full width of the
r individual roadway cross section and in such lengths as are
best suited to the sprinkling and compaction methods
utilized.
Layers of embankment may be formed by utilizing equipment
which will spread the material as it is dumped, or they may
be formed by being spread by blading or other acceptable
methods from piles or windrows dumped from excavating or
hauling equipment in such amounts that material is evenly
distributed.
Minor quantities of rock encountered in constructing earth
embankment shall be incorporated in the specified embankment
layers, or may be placed in accordance with the requirements
for the construction of rock embankments in the deeper fills
within the limits of haul shown on the plans, provided such
placement of rock is not immediately adjacent to structures.
Also, rock may be placed in the portions of embankments
outside the limits of the completed roadbed width where the
size of the rock prohibits their incorporation in the normal
embankment layers.
Each layer of embankment shall be uniform as to material,
density and moisture content before beginning compaction.
Where layers of unlike materials abut each other, each layer
shall be featheredged for at least 100 feet or the material
shall be so mixed as to prevent abrupt changes in the soil.
No material placed in the embankment by dumping in a pile or
d
r D-29
windrow shall be incorporated in a layer in thatposition,
but all such piles or windrows shall be moved by blading or
similar methods. Clods or lumps of material shall be broken
and the embankment material mixed by blading, disking, or
similar methods to the end that a uniform material or
uniform density is secured in each layer. Water required
for sprinkling to bring the material to the moisture content
necessary for maximum compaction shall be evenly applied and
it shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to secure a
uniform moisture content throughout the layer by such
methods as may be necessary. In order to facilitate uniform
wetting of the embankment material, the Contractor shall
water at the material source if the sequence and methods
used are such as not to cause an undue waste of water. Such
procedure shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer.
1. Compaction
The compaction method shall require that each layer shall
be compacted to the required density by any method, type,
and size of equipment,which will give the required
compaction. The depth of layers, prior to compaction,
shall depend upon the type of sprinkling and compaction
equipment used. Prior to and in conjunction with the _
rolling operation, each layer shall be brought to the
moisture content necessary to obtain the required density
and shall be kept leveled with suitable equipment to
insure uniform compaction over the entire layer.
For each layer of earth embankment and select material, _
it is the intent of this specification to provide the
density as required herein, unless otherwise shown on the
plans. The required compaction shall be 95% Standard
Proctor Density ASTM D-698.
After each section of earth embankment or select material
is complete, tests as necessary will be made by the
Engineer. If the material fails to meet the density.
specified, the course shall be reworked as necessary to
obtain the specified compaction, and the compaction
method may be altered on subsequent work to obtain
specified density. Such procedure shall be determined
by, and subject to, the approval of the Engineer.
At any time, the Engineer may order proof rolling to test
the uniformity of compaction of the embankment subgrade.
All irregularities, depressions, weak or soft areas which
develop shall be corrected immediately by the Contractor.
Should the subgrade, due to any reason or cause, lose
required stability, density, or finish before the
pavement structure is placed, it shall be recompacted and
refinished at the sole expense of the Contractor.
Excessive loss of moisture in the subgrade shall be --
D-30
prevented by sprinkling, sealing, or covering with a
subsequent layer of granular material. Excessive loss of
�.. moisture shall be construed to exist when the subgrade
soil moisture content is more than 4 percent below the
optimum for compaction to Standard Proctor Density. (Also
see Section D, Item 2.A.2. Compaction.)
2. At Culverts
Embankments adjacent to culverts which cannot be
compacted by use of the blading and rolling equipment
used in compacting the adjoining sections of embankment
shall be compacted in the manner prescribed below.
l The following requirements shall apply to the backfilling
of pipe culverts in addition to the pertinent portions of
the general requirements given in the preceding section.
s
After the bedding has been prepared and the pipe
installed as required by the pertinent specifications,
selected materials from excavation or borrow shall be
placed along both sides of the pipe equally, in uniform
layers not to exceed six (611) inches in depth (loose
measurement), wetted and thoroughly compacted so that on
each side of the pipe there shall be a berm of thoroughly
compacted materials at least as wide as the: external
diameter of the pipe, except insofar as undisturbed
material obtrudes into this area. The method and degree
of compaction shall be same as specified above.
Filling and/or backfilling shall be continued in this
manner to the elevation of the top -of the pipe. Special
care shall be taken to secure thorough compaction of the
material placed under the haunches of the pipe. All fill
or backfill below the top of the pipe shall be compacted
mechanically in the same manner and to the density
prescribed above, regardless of whether or not such
material is placed within the limits of the: embankment or
roadbed. In the case of embankments, the remainder of
the fill above the top of pipe shall be placed in
accordance with the provisions for placing roadway
embankment as prescribed in the pertinent specification
included in the contract. No construction traffic will
be permitted to cross any pipe culvert until the minimum
depth of fill above the pipe as determined by the
Engineer has been placed and consolidated.
3.BASE COURSE
The base course shall consist of a minimum of six (611) or nine
(911) inches of compacted approved caliche, black base or
combination of caliche and black base material shaped in
accordance with the typical cross -sections provided in the
r' plans and to the grades established by the Engineer.
r D-31
A. HAULING AND PLACING
Approved base material shall be hauled in vehicles of
uniform capacity to the site and dumped evenly so that an
adequate quantity of material will be placed to provide a
minimum of six (611) inches of compacted base material on all
units except major thoroughfares streets. On these streets
the Contractor will construct nine (911) inches of compacted
base material.
B. PROCESSING
Processing of caliche base shall be accomplished in multiple
lifts of three (311) inches in compacted depth. Each lift or
layer shall be thoroughly moistened and rolled as it is cut
from the windrow. After all of the material is cut from the
windrow to the sides, it shall be cut back,to the center in
,lifts of three (311) inches and thoroughly moistened and
rolled again. Succeeding layers shall then be placed
similarly until the caliche base course is completed.
Caliche base shall be compacted to 9511 Standard Proctor
Density (ASTM D-698) for all improvements except
thoroughfare street paving shall be compacted to 100s
Standard Proctor Density.
Density tests (ASTM D-,2922) will be performed and test
rollingfor base will be observed by City inspectors.
Caliche base shall be compacted at a moisture content of
plus or minus 2°s optimum moisture or other moisture content
directed by the Engineer.
The finished caliche base shall be test rolled with a 25 ton
pneumatic tire or other approved roller. The Engineer may
require up to six passes of the roller in determining the
condition of the base.
All nine (911) inch compacted caliche base shall be
accomplished in three (311) inch lifts. The caliche course
shall then be sprinkled as required and rolled with
compactors as directed until a uniform compaction of
specified "Standard Proctor Density" is secured. Throughout
this entire operation, the shape of the course shall be
maintained by blading; and the surface upon completion shall
be smooth and in conformity with the typical sections shown
on plans and to the established lines and grade.
Traffic may be allowed to travel on the caliche base, as
directed by the Engineer, during construction. During this
D-32
period, the caliche base shall be satisfactorily maintained
by the use of water trucks, blades, drags and such other
equipment as may be required. The base course shall be so
maintained until the wearing surface is placed thereon. The
surface shall not be placed on base course that exceeds
optimum mixture by two percent (2%).
Processing of asphaltic base shall be as directed by the
Engineer and similar to that described under Hot Mix
Asphaltic Concrete Surface. Lift thickness will be
indicated by the Engineer or as shown on the paving plans:
Electronic screed controls will be required for placing
black base on grade. The density required will be
determined by the Engineer after material to be used has
been approved. All areas and "nests" of segregated coarse
or fine material shall be corrected or removed and replaced
with well graded material as directed by the Engineer.

The finished caliche base shall be checked for density
requirements and by test rolling. Materials that fails
the density requirement shall be reworked as necessary
until passing. The full depth of caliche base shall be
compacted to the extent necessary to remain firm and
stable under test rolling. All irregularities,
depressions or weak spots which develop shall be
corrected immediately by scarifying the areas affected,
adding suitable material as required, reshaping and
recompacting by.sprinkling and rolling. If. the
Contractor chooses, he may repair the weak spot by
removing the material involved and replacing it with Type
"C" hot mix or asphalt stabilized base. In this case,
the surface may applied as soon as the hot mix patch
has been compacted and cooled to ambient temperature.
rn D-33
2. Allowable Deviation in Finish
Immediately prior to placing of surfacing, the base shall
be checked and any deviation in excess of three -eighths
(3/8) inch from the established grade or true cross
section shall be corrected as provided above for defects.
Longitudinally a straightedge 10 feet long shall be used
to detect any deviation which shall be corrected as
defects.
4. HOT MIX ASPHALTIC CONCRETE SURFACE
Description
This item shall consist of 1-1/2" compacted C.O.L. Type "C" or
Type I'D" hot mix asphaltic concrete surface, using approved
crushed stone aggregate, constructed over a compacted base.
The base shall be primed and a tack coat applied as required.
A. Sampling and Testing Hot Mix Asphaltic Concrete for
Compaction
Hot mix asphaltic concrete will be accepted on a lot basis.
A lot will consist of 1000 tons or each days production and
will be divided into three (3) equal sublots. Pavement
density will be determined by taking the average density for
each lot, from the three sublots, the average Maximum
Theoretical Density, taken from trucks delivering hot mix
asphaltic concrete to the site. The samples will be tested
in accordance with ASTM D-2041.
Each lot of compacted pavement will be accepted, with
respect to density, when the average field density is within
the below listed specifications. Four field density
determinations will be made for each lot. Cores taken from
the pavement will be used to test the field density. The
density of the cored samples will be determined in
accordance with ASTM D-2726.
Density Specifications
Based on Maximum Theoretical Density
Minimum = 92.50
Optimum = 96.O06
Maximum = 9 7 . 5 °s
If the mixture produced does not have the specified
qualities, it.shall be adjusted until it does. The pavement
shall be constructed on the previously completed and
approved subgrade, base, existing pavement, bituminous
surface or in the case of a bridge, on the prepared floor
slab, as herein specified and in accordance with the details
shown on the plans.

B. Temperature Requirements
1. November 1 until April 1
a. The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the air
temperature is below 55 degrees F and falling.
b. The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 50 degrees F and rising.
2. April 1 till November 1
a. The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the air
temperature is below 50 degrees Fund falling.
b. The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 45 degrees F and rising.
3.Asphalt Stabilized Base
a. The asphaltic mixture shall not be placed when the air
temperature is below 45 degrees F and falling.
b. The asphaltic mixture may be placed when the air
temperature is above 40 degrees F and rising.
The air temperature shall be taken in the shade away from
artificial heat or as reported by the National Weather
Service on their hourly report (Telephone No. 762-0141).
The Engineer may use his discretion to require a cover
over the asphaltic mixture when being hauled from the
plant to the job site.
If the temperature of a load of asphaltic concrete
measured while passing through the lay -down machine is 25
degrees F less than the mixing temperature, the load may
be rejected by the Engineer and payment will not be made
for the rejected material.
4. Preparation of Base and Areas Bordering
The compacted base upon which the hot mix asphaltic
concrete surface is to be placed shall be prepared and
cleaned, as required by the Engineer, before the prime
coat is applied.
5. Prime Coat
The prime coat shall consist of an application of 0.25
gallons per square yard of MC asphalt.
�- D-35
6. Tack Coat
Before the asphaltic mixture is laid, the surface upon
which the tack coat is to be placed shall be cleaned
thoroughly to the satisfaction of the Engineer. The
surface shall be given a uniform application of tack coat
using asphaltic materials of this specification. This
tack coat shall be applied, as directed by the Engineer,
with approved sprayer. Where the mixture will adhere to
the surface on which it is to be placed without the use
of a tack coat, the tack coat may be eliminated by the
Engineer. All contact surfaces of curbs and structures
and all joints shall be painted with a thin uniform coat
of the asphaltic material meeting the requirements for
tack coat. The tack coat shall be rolled with a
pneumatic tire roller as directed by the Engineer.
7. Transporting Asphaltic Concrete
The asphaltic mixture, prepared as specified above shall
be hauled to the work site in tight vehicles previously
cleaned of all foreign material. The dispatching of the
vehicles shall be arranged so that all material delivered
may placed, and all rolling shall be completed during
day -light hours. The inside of the truck body may be
given a light coat of oil, lime slurry or other material
satisfactory to the Engineer, if necessary, to prevent
mixture from adhering to the body. In cool weather or
for long hauls, canvas covers and insulating of truck
bodies may be required. Vehicles of the semi -trailer
type are prohibited.
8. Placing
Generally the asphaltic mixture shall be dumped and
spread on the approved prepared surface with the
specified spreading and finishing machine in such manner that when properly compacted the finished pavement will
be smooth, of uniform density and will meet the
requirements of the typical cross sections and the
surface tests. During the application of asphaltic
material, care shall be taken to prevent splattering of
adjacent pavement, curb and gutter, and structures.
The surface course shall be laid in a.compacted layer
with a minimum compacted thickness of one and one-half
inches (1-1/211).
A level up course, 1/2" or more in thickness, shall
require the use of black base or a coarse grade of hot
mix approved by the Engineer. It shall be spread and
compacted to lines and grades as established by the
Engineer.
D-36
r
7 When the asphaltic mixture is placed in a narrow strip
along the edge of an existing pavement, or used to level
up small areas of an existing pavement or placed in small
irregular areas where the use of a finishing machine is
not practical, the finishing machine may be eliminated
when authorized by the Engineer, provided a satisfactory
surface can be obtained by other approved methods.
Adjacent to flush curbs, gutters, liners and structures,
the surface shall be finished uniformly high so that when
compacted it will be slightly above the edge of the curb
and flush structure.
rAll
joints shall present the same texture density, and
r
smoothness as other sections of the course. The joints
between old and new pavements or between successive days
work shall be carefully made to insure a continuous bond
between old and new sections of the course.
The transverse edges of old pavement and, if required by
the Engineer, the successive days pavement shall be sawed
" with an approved concrete saw to expose an even vertical
surface for the full thickness of the course. All
contact surfaces of previously constructed pavement shall
R be painted with a thin uniform coat of hot bituminous
material before the fresh mixture is placed.
n
9. Compacting
As directed by the Engineer, the pavement shall be
l compacted thoroughly and uniformly to the required
l density. The specified rollers shall be used, except as
provided in paragraph (3) below.
}!
Rolling with the three wheel and tandem rollers shall
start longitudinally at the sides and proceed toward the
r.
center of the pavement, overlapping on successive trips
x
by at least half the width of the rear wheels unless
otherwise directed by the Engineer. Alternate trips of
the roller shall be slightly different in length. On
super -elevated curves, rolling shall begin at the low
side and progress toward the high side unless otherwise
directed by the Engineer. Rolling with pneumatic roller
shall be done as directed by the Engineer. Rolling shall
be continued until required compaction is obtained and
all roller marks are eliminated. One tandem roller, two
r,
pneumatic rollers and at least one three wheel roller, as
specified above, shall be provided for each job.
Additional rollers shall be provided if needed. The
motion of the roller shall be slow enough at all times to
avoid displacement of the mixture. If any displacement
l
4
occurs, it shall be corrected at once by the use of rakes
and of fresh mixture where required. The roller shall
r'
t.'
not be allowed to stand on pavement which has not been
r. D-37
fully compacted. To prevent adhesion of the surface to
the roller, the wheels shall be kept thoroughly moistened
with water, but an excess of water will not be permitted.
All rollers must be in good mechanical condition.
Necessary precautions shall be taken to prevent the
droppings of diesel, gasoline, oil, grease or other
foreign matter on the pavement, either when the rollers
are in operation or when standing.
When indicated on the plans or permitted by the Engineer in writing, the pavement may be compacted to the required
density by the use of compacting equipment other than
that specified herein.
Hand tamping. The edges of the pavement along curbs,
headers and similar structures, and all places not
accessible to the roller, or in such positions as will
not allow thorough compaction with the roller, shall be
thoroughly compacted with lightly oiled tamps.
Rolling with the trench type roller will be required on
widening areas in trenches and other limited areas where
satisfactory compaction cannot be obtained with the three
wheel and tandem rollers.
10. Surface Tests
The surface of the pavement, after compaction, shall be
smooth and true to the established line, grade and cross
section, andwhentested with a 10 foot straight edge —
placed parallel to the centerline of the roadway or
tested by other equivalent and acceptable means, except
as provided herein, the maximum deviation shall not _
exceed 1/8 inch in 10 feet, and any point in the surface
not meeting this requirement -shall be corrected as
directed by the Engineer. When placed on existing
surfaces, the 1/8 inch deviation in 10 feet requirement
may be waived by the Engineer.
11. Surface Density Test
See Section M, Item 10.(D), Laboratory Control.
12. Equipment
Spreading and Finishing Machine. The spreading and
finishing machine shall be of a type approved by the
Engineer, shall be capable of producing a surface that
will meet the requirements of the typical cross section

satisfactory manner when the mixture is dumped into the
finishing machine. The finishing machine shall be
equipped with a flexible spring and/or hydraulic type _
D-3 8 r-
rhitch sufficient in design and capacity to maintain
contact between the rear wheels of the hauling equipment
�., and the pusher rollers of the finishing machine while the
mixture is being unloaded. The finishing machine shall
be operated in a low gear, or as directed by the
Engineer, at a speed to produce a surface that will meet
the requirements of the typical cross section and surface
test.
r- Any vehicle which the finishing machine cannot push or
propel in such a manner as to obtain the desired lines
and grade without resorting to hand finishing will not be
allowed to dump directly into the finishing machine.
Vehicles dumping into the finishing machine shall be
mechanically and/or automatically operated in such a
manner that overloading the finishing machine being used
r' cannot occur and the required lines and grade will be
obtained without resorting to hand finishing.
Dumping of the asphaltic mixture in a windrow and then
placing the mixture in the finishing machine with loading
equipment will be approved by the Engineer, provided that
the loading equipment is constructed and operated in such
a manner that substantially all of the mixture deposited
on the roadbed is picked up and placed in the finishing
machine without contamination by foreign material of the
mixture. The loading equipment will be so designed and
operated that the finishing machine being loaded will
obtain the required line, grade and surface without
resorting to hand finishing. Any operation of the
loading equipment resulting in the accumulation and
subsequent shedding of this accumulated material into the
asphaltic mixture will not be permitted.
Forms. The use of forms will not be required except
where necessary to support the edges of the pavement
t^ during rolling. If the pavement will stand rolling
without undue movement, binder twine or small rope may be
used to align the edges.
r Motor Grader. The motor � grader, if used, shall be self-
propelled power motor grader; it shall be equipped with
pneumatic tired wheels; shall have a blade length of not
less than 12 feet; shall have a wheel base of not less

the wheels wet and adjustable road wheel so that the
roller may be kept level during rolling. The drive shall
be not less than 20 inches wide. The roller under
working conditions shall produce 325 pounds per linear
inch of roller width and be so geared that a speed of 1.8
miles per hour is obtained in low gear.
Straightedges and Templates. When directed by the
Engineer, the Contractor shall provide acceptable 10 foot
straightedges for surface testing. Satisfactory
templates shall be provided by the Contractor as required
by the Engineer.
All equipment shall be maintained in good repair and
operating condition and shall be approved by the
Engineer.
The Contractor shall furnish such suitable machinery,
equipment and construction forces as may be necessary, in
the opinion of the Engineer, for the proper prosecution
of the work, and failure to do so may cause the Engineer
to withhold all estimates which have or may become due or
the Engineer may suspend work until his requests are
complied with.
13. Opening to Traffic
The pavement shall be opened to traffic when directed by
the Engineer. All construction traffic allowed on the
pavement shall comply with City Ordinance governing
traffic on City Streets.
D-40
r
s
i
r
If the surface ravels, corrugates or shoves, it will be
the Contractor's responsibility to correct this condition
,M at his expense.
5.CLEANUP
Within three days after completion of any Sub -Unit of paving
the Contractor shall clean, remove rubbish and temporary
structures from the street, restore in an acceptable manner
all property, both public and private, which has been damaged
during the prosecution of the work, and leave the site of the
work in a neat and presentable condition throughout. The cost
of the "cleanup" shall be included as a part of the cost of
the various items of work involved, and no direct compensation
will be made for this work. This work shall be done before
final acceptance of the Sub -Unit will be considered.
The cleanup shall include the sloping, filling and shaping of
the area between the curb and property line. This area shall
be filled with good top soil. When the ground behind the curb
is higher than the top of the curb, the Contractor will be
required to cut this area down to provide a smooth, even slope
between the property line and the curb.
6. PROTECTION OF EXISTING UTILITIES
A.ADJUSTMENT OF VALVES AND MANHOLES
The City Forces will place valve boxes and manholes on
finished grade after the base has been finished to grade.
The Contractor shall allow the City Forces at least 3 days
to do this work after finishing the base and before
application of asphalt. It shall be the responsibility of
the Contractor to notify the Water and Sewer Department 48
hours after curb and gutter has been completed so that the
City Forces can properly schedule their work. In all alleys
the City Forces will set the valve boxes and manholes to
grade after the forms are in place. Any variation in this
procedure that causes expense to the City shall have the
approval of the Engineer, and such expense shall be borne by
the Contractor.
B. INSTALLATION ADJUSTMENTS AND PROTECTION OF UTILITIES
AND TRAFFIC INSTALLATIONS
The plans show only approximate locations of utilities as
r• obtained from the various utility companies and shall not
relieve the Contractor from familiarizing himself with all
underground utilities. It is not implied that all existing
utilities are shown on the plans. The City of Lubbock does
not assume any responsibility for any utility lines which
are not shown on the plans.
r
D-41
The utility companies will attempt to move all utilities
that can be reasonably removed prior to beginning of
construction; however, this does not relieve the Contractor
from any damage that he might do to any utility property.
In case of any damage, the Contractor shall immediately
notify the utility company.

Sequence: The sequence of utility adjustments has been
mutually agreed upon by the utility companies in the City of
Lubbock and will attempt to follow the following schedule:
Plans for contract project will be delivered to all utility
companies two weeks prior to opening bids. As a general
rule, these projects will have been staked.
The utility companies will relocate all items necessary,
locate and flag all meters, valves, manholes, underground
cables, etc., prior to the date the Contractor is to begin
construction.
After the subgrade is completed on alley paving projects,
and after the base is completed on all street paving
projects, all manholes, valve boxes, etc., will be set to
finished grade by the utility companies. The site shall be
left in a clean condition.
On all projects, including private contracts, the Contractor
shall exercise care not to damage any sanitary sewer pipe or
manholes, storm sewer pipe or manholes, or telephone cable
or manholes, water or gas lines, valve boxes , meter boxes,
nor any other pipe or utility. If necessary, the Contractor
shall call the department or company concerned and make
arrangements for adjusting the manhole,:valve box, meter
box, or other utility to grade. On all projects for which
he is awarded a contract, the Contractor will be responsible
during the construction period for any damages to manholes,
valve boxes, meter boxes and other utilities.
D42
r
Should any item be damaged during the process of
construction, the Contractor is to notify the affected
utility company and the City inspector. The utility company
will immediately repair the damaged item. Any bills for
damage will be sent through the Department of Engineering.
The Department of Engineering will process all bills and fix
responsibility for damage and govern the extent of repair.
Private contracts do not have plans, but utility companies
will be furnished cut sheets and notified of impending
construction by letter. Other items such as adjustments,
damages, etc. will be handled the same as for bid let
projects.
The utility companies will schedule their work with the
Contractor. When utility adjustments commence before the
contract is awarded, it will be the responsibility of the
utility company to barricade the project.
Unless otherwise agreed upon by the City and the utility
companies involved, the sequence of installation of
underground utilities shall be as follows:
Utility
Sewer
Electric (Primary)
Electric (Secondary)
Telephone

On all projects, including private contracts, the Contractor
r" shall not place curb and gutter or base material at points
where underground utilities cross or propose to cross until
such utilities have been adjusted or installed.
7.SALVAGING AND REPLACING BASE
Description
"Salvaging and Replacing Base" shall consist of removing the
existing base material where shown on plans, such temporary
r storage as is necessary, and the replacement of this material
r' D-43
on the prepared roadbed as herein specified and in conformity
with the typical sections shown on plans and to the lines and
grades as established by the Engineer.
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
_1.Salvaaina Existing Base
The existing base, including any bituminous mat not shown
on plans to be salvaged, shall first be cleaned of all —
dirt or other objectionable material by blading, brooming
or other approved methods, then scarified to the width
and depth as may be required to provide the estimated
amount of salvaged material per station as shown on the
plans. Subgrade shall be reworked, if necessary, as
directed by the Engineer. Any bituminous mat encountered
shall be broken into particles not more than two inches in size, and incorporated uniformly with the existing
base. The material thus salvaged shall be placed in
stockpiles or windrows until sufficient subgrade has been
prepared to receive the salvaged material; then, if the
Contractor so elects, the remaining old base material as
salvaged may be placed directly upon the prepared
subgrade as directed by the Engineer, thus eliminating

the Contractor will be required to provide additional
equipment.
r`
J.It is the intent of these requirements to construct the
improvements listed in this contract with the least
inconvenience to the property owners and the traveling
public. In the event damage occurs to pavement in the area
of a fire hydrant, which was caused by the Contractor's
employees negligence to shut off the valve on the loading
rack, it will be the Contractor's responsibility and expense
to repair the paving and replace curb and gutter if required
by the Engineer.
SC-5
K. Any damage to existing paving, curb & gutter or any other
public facilities will be corrected to the.Engineer's
satisfaction at the Contractor's expense.
10. REMOVING OBSTRUCTIONS
The Contractor shall familiarize himself with the existing
obstructions including sidewalks, trees, poles, etc., prior to
construction. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to
remove these obstructions at the direction of the Engineer
except that the utility companies will move their equipment at
no cost to the Contractor. The Contractor will receive no
compensation for delay caused by the Utility Companies in
relocating or removing theirequipment.
11. TEST OF MATERIALS
These requirements apply to this contract and all construction
work on all streets and alleys including new subdivisions,
streets and alley use permits.
The Contractor will bear the cost of all material tests on hot
mix design and concrete design. The City will bear the cost
on tests during construction such as density on caliche base,
gradation on concrete and paving aggregates and: density and
asphalt extraction test on hot -mix and black base.
A. Caliche Base Materials
Before materials can be used on any street, current (not
older than 30 days) test reports will be submitted to the
Engineer for approval and test reports will be required
every 30 days before this material can be used continuously
on City streets. During the construction period, tests that
fail will require re -testing by the City lab at the
Contractor's expense.
B. Concrete Mix Design (M-2-E) and Preconstruction Test (M-2-D
The Contractor or concrete supplier will submit a mix design
on the crushed stone and gravel approximately (20) days
before beginning the concrete operation for approval by the
Engineer. Contractors or Concrete Suppliers that supply
concrete for any contract, new -subdivision, street or alley
use permits will be required to submit to the City Engineer
a concrete mix design every thirty (30) to forty-five (45)
days for approval. Any Contractor or concrete supplier that
does not have a current mix design on file with the City
Engineer will not be permitted to furnish concrete for any
project within the City of Lubbock until mix design is
received.
SC-6
€
The City of Lubbock Testing Laboratory will make test
cylinders during the construction period. When test
cylinders fail to meet the required strength at the 7 or 28
day break, the concrete in question will be cored by the
City of Lubbock Testing Laboratory within three days after
the 7 or 28 day break. If the core samples fail to meet the
required strength, the concrete will be rejected and
removed. The cost of coring on concrete that fails on the
core test will be charged to the Contractor or Concrete
r.•
Supplier. After the mix design is submitted and approved by
the Engineer, no changes in the design or materials will be
permitted without approval of the Engineer.
C. Cement
Certified mill test on each car or transport.
D. Asphalt
Certified Lab Test.
E.Density Test
The City of Lubbock Testing Laboratory will provide density
tests on the base or subgrade. The City of Lubbock Lab will
be the final authority on all tests.
12. SUBCONTRACTORS
The Contractor shall not award any work to any Subcontractor
without prior written approval of the Owner, which approval
will not be given until the Contractor submits to the Owner a
written statement concerning the proposed award to the
r" Subcontractor, which statement shall contain such information
as the Owner may require.
r. The Contractor shall be as fully responsible to the Owner for
f the acts and omissions of his subcontractors, and of persons
either directly or indirectly employed by them, as he is for
the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by him.
The Contractor shall cause appropriate provisions to be
inserted in all subcontracts relative to the work to bind
subcontractors to the Contractor by the terms of the General
Conditions and other contract documents insofar as applicable
to the work of subcontractors and to give the Contractor the
same power as regard terminating any subcontract that the
Owner may exercise over the Contractor under any provision of
the contract documents.
Nothing contained in this contract shall create any
contractual relation between any Subcontractor and the Owner
SC-7
r
and said Subcontractor will look exclusively to Contractor for
any payments due Subcontractor.
13. UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
The Contractor's attention is directed to the fact that
pipelines and other underground installations as may be shown
of the plans have been taken from the best available
information. There may be other pipelines or installations.
The Contractor shall save harmless the City from any and all
suits or claims resulting from damage by his operations to any
pipeline or underground installation.
It is the Contractor's responsibility, during the period of
street construction, to insure ;that all utility cuts in the
limits of street construction have been properly backfilled,
compacted and the top 6" inches backfilled with 3-sack
concrete. It is not the intent to require the Contractor to
provide for the utility cut repair but for the individual
utility company making the cut to provide their own repairs.
In the case of a City underground installation, the Contractor
may be required, at the Engineer's option, to repair the cut
with 3-sack cement stabilized caliche at the unit price bid.
14. WORKING HOURS
Construction work under this contract requiring an inspector
will not be performed on weekends or holidays unless the
following conditions exist:
A. The project being constructed is essential to the City of
Lubbock's ability to provide the necessary services to it's
citizens.
B.Delays in construction are due to factors outside the
control of the Contractor. The Contractor is approaching
the penalty provisions of the contract and Contractor can
show he has made a diligent effort to complete the contract
within allotted time.
Before construction work requiring an inspector is to be
performed on weekends or holidays, the Contractor must notify
the Owner's Representative not less than three (3) full
working days prior to the weekend or holiday he desires to do
work and obtain written permission from the Owner's
Representative to do such work. The final decision on whether
to allow construction work requiring an inspector on weekends
or holidays will be made by the Owner's Representative.
SC-8
r
F
In any event, if a condition should occur or arise at the site
of this project or from the work being done under this
contract which is hazardous or dangerous to property or life,
the Contractor shall immediately commence work regardless of
the day of the week or the time of day, to correct or.
alleviate such condition so that it is no longer dangerous to
property or life.
No work will be allowed from November 1st througtz January 2nd
unless approved by the Engineer.
15. PARTIAL PAYMENTS
On or before the tenth day of each month, the Contractor shall
submit to Owner's Representative an application for partial
payment. Owner's Representative shall review said application
for partial payment and the progress of the work made by the
Contractor and if found to be in order shall prepare a
certificate for partial payment showing as completely as
practical the total value of the work done by the Contractor
up to and including the last day of the preceding month.
16. CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT
Neither the final payment nor certificate nor any provision in
this contract shall relieve the Contractor of responsibility
for faulty materials or workmanship, and he shall remedy
defects due thereto and pay for any damage to other work
resulting therefrom, which shall appear within a period of one
(1) year from date of final acceptance of the project. The
r' Owner or the Owner's Representative shall give notice of
observed defects with reasonable promptness.
17. EXTENSION OF TIME - TIME FOR COMPLETION
An extension of time will not be allowed on this project. The
project completion will be based on working days allowed
instead of calendar days allowed.
All places in these documents referring to the number of
calendar days to complete the project are hereby revised and
termed the number of working days to complete the project.
A working day is defined as a calendar day, not including
Saturdays, Sundays, or designated City of Lubbock holidays, in
which weather or other conditions not under the control of the
.. Contractor will permit the performance of the principal unit
I of work underway for a continuous period of not less than
seven (7) hours between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. For every
Saturday or designated City of Lubbock holiday on which the
r Contractor chooses and has the proper authorization to work,
�- one day will be charged against the contract working time when
•■ SC-9
r
weather conditions will permit seven (7) hours of work as
delineated above. Work on Sunday will not be permitted except
in cases of extreme emergency and then only with the written
permission of the Engineer. If Sunday work is permitted,
working time will be charged on the same basis as week days.
The Contractor shall complete the work within the number of
working days stated in these documents. For the purpose of
computation, working days will be considered to begin with the
effective date stated in the "Notice to Proceed".
The Engineer will furnish the Contractor a monthly statement
showing number of working days charged during the month, total
number of working days allowed in contract, and the working
days remaining under contract. The Contractor will be allowed
ten (10) days in which to protest the correctness of the
statement. This protest shall be in writing, and shall show
cause. Not filing a protest within the allowed ten (10) days
for any statement will indicate the Contractor's approval of
the time charges as shown on that time statement and future
consideration of that statement will not be permitted. If the
satisfactory completion of the contract shall require
unforeseen work or work and materials in greater amounts than
these set forth in the contract, then additional working days
or suspension of time charge will be allowed the Contractor
equal to the time which, in the opinion of the Engineer, the
work as a whole is delayed. If the Contractor fails to
complete the contract in the working days specified, the
stated liquidated damages will be charged for each working day
thereafter.

EXTENSION OF 66TH STREET
FROM CHICAGO AVENUE
TO SLIDE ROAD
LUBBOCK, TEXAS
I. SITE DATA
A. Proiect Name:
Extension of 66th Street from Chicago Avenue to Slide Road.
B. Project Location:
In the northeast quarter of Section 27, Block E-2
Approximate Latitude 33*31'59" N.
Approximate Longitude 101055'38" W.
C. Project Overator(s):
1. Owner: City.of Lubbock
1625 13th Street
Lubbock, TX 79457
(806) 767-2341
2. Contractor: To be determined.
D. Nature of Anticipated Construction Activities:
The project involves the relocation and adjustment of underground and surface utilities as well as
earthwork, underground storm sewer and paving construction for a collector street. Work to be performed
by independent contractors under contract with the owner includes the construction of municipal
earthwork, paving and drainage improvements. City crews will be responsible for making necessary
adjustments to water valve boxes, manhole rings and lids as well as adjusting any other City -owned utility
as necessary. Other underground utilities with some surface elements will be adjusted or relocated by the
respective municipally franchised utility companies, including natural gas lines, electric power distribution
lines, telephone lines, and cable television lines. Most of the site will be disturbed.
E. Sequence of Anticipated Construction Activities:
It is anticipated that necessary relocation and adjustment of utilities will occur first with construction of
paving and drainage improvements following closely.
F. Site Area and Proiected Disturbed Area:
The site area is approximately 6.1 acres within the current right-of-way limits. It is projected that the
entire area within the construction limits will be disturbed dining the course of construction of the
referenced improvements. The areas to be disturbed are under one ownership with all development to be
constructed concurrently by one general contractor.
SW-1
r
t
G. Soil Data and Storm Water Runoff Coefficient:
The site was previously used as farm and ranch land. As such, no improvements exists on the site.
Data taken from Soil Survey of Lubbock County, Texas, USDA Soil Conservation Service, April 1979,
describes general soil properties expected for the project site. Soils on site are classified as Acuff -Urban
land complex.
Acuff -urban land complex is described as deep, nearly level to gently sloping on uplands and made up of
55 percent Acuff soils, 35 percent Urban land, and 10 percent other soils. The surface layer is friable,
neutral, brown loam about 12 inches thick. From 12 to 28 inches is friable, mildly alkaline, reddish
brown sandy clay loam From 28 to 38 inches is friable, moderately alkaline, yellowish red sandy clay
loam. From 38 to 58 inches is friable, moderately alkaline, pink sandy clay loam that is about 40 percent
by volume calcium carbonate. From 58 to 80 inches is friable, moderately alkaline, light reddish brown
sandy clay loam that is about 15 percent by volume calcium.
Urban land consists of residential and commercial buildings, driveways, streets, sidewalks, and parking
lots. This particular site contains only a modest amount of improvements at this time which should not
contribute an appreciable increase in run-off. The Acuff type soils on the remainder of the site are high
in natural fertility. Permeability is moderate and available water capacity is high; therefore, surface
runoff is low.
These soils are used for lawn grasses, ornamental trees and shrubs, and flower and vegetable gardens.
The potential is high for urban and residential use. They are corrosive to uncoated steel and have low
strength, but these limitations can be overcome by good design and careful installation. The potentials are
high for recreational use and low for cropland and rangeland.
As discussed previously, final use of the project site will be a municipal collector street. Based on normal
circumstances in the area, it is expected that the majority of the area will be paved. Under these
conditions, an average runoff coefficient for the site of 0.95 would be applicable (after Design and
Construction of Sanitary and Storm Sewers, ASCE- Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice - No.
37, 1969).
For this project, the composite runoff coefficient after stabilization is estimated as 0.95 (applicable to
completely paved areas and storm events with a return frequency of up to 10 years).
H. SWPPP Site Plan:
The SWPPP Site Plan is included in the construction plans as sheet 11 of 11 herein. The plan indicates
SWPPP features including existing and proposed grading/drainage patterns, structural and non-structural
controls, stabilization areas, and locations where storm water will be discharged from the site.
I. Receiving Water Information:
Storm water discharged from the site will be collected and conveyed via "channelization" in ditches, city
streets, and State highway right-of-way. An underground storm sewer system will be constructed as part
of this project to carry a portion of the runoff. All of the storm flow associated with this project will
eventually reach a system of playa lakes designated by the City of Lubbock as "System Southwest". This
system consists of a series of four lakes designated as'Playas 30, 29, 28 and 91. Approximately 90% of
the storm flow associated with this project will be directed to Playa 30 which is located directly adjacent
to the southwest portion of the project. Both the overland drainage channel and the underground storm
SW-2
7
sewer will direct flow to this playa. A portion of the storm flow from this project will be directed
eastward along the new collector street to Slide Road and then southerly, eventually into Playa 29 located
approximately one-half mile south of the project site. No wetland areas exist at the site of proposed
construction.
II. CONTROLS
A. Erosion and Sediment Controls:
Primary means for controlling erosion and sediment transport during project construction are indicated on
the SWPPP Site Plan.
1. Stabilization Methods:
a. Ultimately, a municipal collector street will be constructed on the site. The area unused for
street and drainage improvements will be developed as greenspace or park area.
b. It is not anticipated that there will be any periods of no construction activity exceeding 21
days from the time utility construction is begun through final stabilization. If unforeseen
delays occur which exceed 21 days, stabilization methods will be instituted within 14 days.
C. Stabilized construction vehicle ingress -egress and staging areas will be provided as indicated
on the SWPPP Site Plana To the extent practicable, construction employees will be directed
to park their personal vehicles on side -streets adjacent to the project to help prevent tracking
of sediments off -site, particularly during wet periods. Contractor -operators will be required
to clean up any significant amounts of mud tracked off -site onto adjacent streets on an as -
needed basis. Additionally, it is expected that normal City of Lubbock street cleaning
operations will continue to be implemented according to the City's schedule for same.
d. Final stabilization will include development of grasses and other vegetation along the right-
of-way and in shallow and odd -shaped City -owned lots along the route.
2. Structural Methods:
a. The subject property is situated topographically such that there is good opportunity for off -
site overland flows to enter the site, especially at the northwest end of the project and along
the northern edge of the proposed site. A majority of the flow entering the site is currently
directed down Bangor Avenue. This is expected to remain the case after some slight
alterations near the intersection of 66th Street. Prevailing slopes are generally to the south
and southwest for most of the adjacent property. The subject property is bounded on the
north side by fully developed and paved apartment and office complexes. All other portions
of the project are located in undeveloped areas.
b.: After the ingress -egress areas have been stabilized but before utility construction begins, a
temporary diversion swale will be cut along the proposed drainage channel. Small check
dams will be provided at appropriate intervals in this swale to aid in trapping sediments.
The outlet at the west end of this Swale will be controlled by staked silt fencing and also by
hay bale or sand bag barricades at the point of discharge. Staked silt fencing will also be
utilized along the entire north and south sides of the eastern end of the project where the
proposed curb grades will be above the prevailing ground elevations to prevent any
discharge of silt onto adjacent developments or highways. Additionally, sand bag and/or
SW-3
x
f
r
r
hay bale barricades will be utilized at all intersections and new storm inlets or any other
points of concentrated flows as necessary. These diversion swales, barricades, and silt
fencing will be removed when the utility and street construction has been completed and
immediately prior to final stabilization of the site.
!' C. Excess earth spoil will be temporarily stockpiled at the locations indicated on the plans prior
j to being either incorporated into the project or properly disposed of by the contractor.
ri
d. No storm sewer inlets currently exist on the site. Several trees exist near the east end of the
project site near a former home site. Some of these trees will need to be removed in order
to construct the street. Also, one other tree outside of the construction area will be removed
due to its poor condition.
e. The NPDES General Permit requires provision of a temporary sediment basin providing
3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained for common drainage locations serving 10 or
more disturbed acres at one time, "where attainable." Due to the nature of this project
(relatively narrow tracts for street right-of-way) and the relatively small project acreage (less
than 7 acres), it would not be feasible to construct basins of this size on -site. Additionally,
access to adjacent property down gradient for purposes of constructing large sediment basins
is not available. For these reasons, minimum structural controls incorporating diversion
swales, silt fencing, and smaller sedimentation controls are proposed as indicated on the
SWPPP Site Plan. All structural controls proposed are temporary and will be removed after
site stabilization.
B. Storm Water Management:
w
t
1.
2.
roll
3.
Storm water management during construction will be accomplished through implementation of the
erosion and sedimentation controls previously detailed and as indicated on the SWPPP Site Plan.
As discussed previously, final use of the property will be a municipal collector street. Per normal
practice in the area, it is expected that parkway areas will eventually be seeded with native grasses
and other landscape plantings as moisture conditions allow.
Longitudinal street slopes will very from 0.2-1.5% with a majority of the streets constructed at the
minimum slope. Cross -slopes for paved street areas will likely average 1-3%. These relatively
gentle prevailing slopes combined with the expected landscaping indicate that there will be need
for velocity dissipation controls only at the outlet of the drainage channel and underground storm
sewer. This will be accomplished by construction of temporary ditch checks and a permanent
riprap field.
r C. Waste Collection and Disposal:
All solid and liquid waste materials generated on -site will be collected, temporarily stored, and finally
disposed of as necessary to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. No waste materials will be
E buried or otherwise disposed of on -site. Burning of waste materials on -site is prohibited.
D. State and/or Local Plan Approvals:
At the time of preparation of this SWPPP, there are no known existing state or local plan preparation or
approval requirements for erosion and sediment control.
SW-4
III. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTIONS
A. Maintenance:
Maintenance and repair of all erosion, sedimentation, and stabilization methods identified in the SWPPP
or its amendments shall be performed in a timely manner on an as -needed basis. All controls shall be
kept in good operating condition to assure their effective implementation. The site operator(s) responsible
for implementation of specific measures shall also be responsible for their maintenance and repair.
B. Inspections:
1. The site operator(s) responsible for implementation and maintenance of specific measures shall
provide a qualified person or persons to perform regular inspections of the measures and to
complete appropriate inspection reports.
2. Inspections shall be performed on the following:
a. Disturbed areas and storage areas exposed to precipitation shall be checked for evidence of
and the possibility for discharge of pollutants.
b. Erosion and sediment control measures identified in the SWPPP and its amendments shall
be checked to assure they are performing the intended function.
C. Storm water discharge locations shall be checked to determine if erosion control measures
implemented are effective in the prevention of significant impacts upon the receiving waters
identified in the SWPPP.
3.
4.
d. Vehicle ingress -egress areas shall be checked to determine if off -site tracking of sediment is
being effectively controlled.
Inspections will be performed at least once every seven (7) calendar days and within twenty-four
(24) hours after a rain event totalling one-half inch (0.5") or more. However, for portions of the
site which have been finally stabilized or during seasonal dry periods, these inspections may be
performed at least once each month.
If warranted based on inspection reports identifying specific needs, the site description information
and the pollution prevention practices specified in the SWPPP shall be revised as appropriate. In
no instance shall the required revisions be implemented later than seven (7) calendar days beyond
the date of the inspection.
5. Inspection reports shall be made for each inspection performed and shall be retained as part of the
SWPPP for a minimum period of three (3) years following the date of final stabilization of the
site. Inspection reports shall contain the following information:
a. Summary of scope of the inspection
b. Name(s) and qualifications of person(s) performing the inspection
C. Date(s) of the inspection
SW-5
r
d. Major observations with respect to the implementation of the various measures detailed in
the SWPPP and its amendments
e. Actions taken in accordance with Item 4 above
6. Where an inspection report does not identify any incidents of non-compliance, the report shall
contain a certification that the facility is in compliance with the SWPPP and the published NPDES
General Permit for Storm Water Discharges From Construction Activities that are classified as
"Associated With Industrial Activity."
7. All inspection reports shall be signed in accordance with requirements of the referenced General
Permit including certification provisions therein.
IV. NON -STORM WATER DISCHARGES
A. Anticipated Sources of Non -Storm Water:
1. Fire hydrant and potable water line flushings
2. Water used for soil or base conditioning
3. Water used for vehicle washing or dust control
4. Water used for trench backfill consolidation
5. Pavement washwater (non -detergent) where spills of toxic or hazardous materials have not occurred
(or have been completely removed)
B. Pollution Prevention Measures:
1. All vehicles on -site will be monitored for leaks.
2. Concrete trucks will be required to discharge surplus concrete or drum wash at a single designated
spot. These waste materials will be removed from the site at least once per week during dry
periods and more often during expected wet periods. These materials will be legally disposed of
off -site. Alternatively, concrete trucks will not be allowed to discharge waste materials on -site.
3. All products kept on -site will be stored in their original containers with manufacturer's labels
intact. Material safety data sheets (MSDS) will be kept if applicable. All products will be used
according to manufacturer's instructions, and all spills will be cleaned up immediately. Containers
shall not be exposed to precipitation.
4. Final disposal of all excess product and product containers shall be accomplished according to the
manufacturer's instructions and in accordance with all applicable rules, regulations, and laws.

1. Site description. Each planahall.
provide a description of pollutant
sources and other information as
indicated:
a. A description of the nature of the
construction activity;
b. A description of the intended
sequence of major activities which
disturb soils for major portions of the
site (e.g. grubbing, excavation, grading);
c. Estimates of the total area of the
site and the total area of the site that is
expected to be disturbed by excavation,
grading, or other activities;
d. An estimate of the runoff coefficient
of the site after construction activities
are completed and existing data
describing the soil or the quality of any
discharge from the site;
e. A site map indicating drainage
patterns and approximate slopes
anticipated after major grading
activities, areas of soil disturbance, an
outline of areas which not be disturbed,
the location of major structural and
nonstructural controls identified in the
plan, the location of areas where
stabilization practices are expected to
occur. surface waters (including
wetlands), and locations where storm
water is discharged to a surface water,
and
f. The name of the receiving water(s),
and areal extent of wetland acreage at
the site.
2. Controls. Each plan shall include a
description of appropriate controls and
measures that will be implemented at
the construction site. The plan will
clearly describe for each major activity
identified in Part IV.D.l.b appropriate
control measures and the timing during
the construction process that the
measures will hc! implemented. (Fur
example, perimeter controls for one
portion of the site will be installed after
the clearing and grubbing necessary for
installation of the measure, but before
the clearing and grubbing for the
remaining portions of the site. Perimeter
controls will be actively maintained
until final stabilization of those portions
of the site upward of the perimeter
control. Temporary perimeter controls
will be removed after final
stabilization). The description and
implementation of controls shall address
the following minimum components:
a. Erosion and sediment controls —(I).
stabilization practices. A description of
interim and permanent stabilization
practices, including site -specific
scheduling of the implementation of the '
practices. Site plans should ensure that
existing vegetation is preserved where
attainable and that disturbed portions of
the site are stabilized. Stabilization
practices may include: temporary
seeding, permanent seeding, mulching,
geotextiles, sod stabilization, vegetative
buffer strips, protection of trees,
preservation of mature vegetation, and
other appropriate measures. A record of
the dates when major grading activities
occur, when construction activities
temporarily or permanently cease on a
portion of the site, and when
stabilization measures are initiated shall
be included in the plan. Except as
provided in paragraphs IV.D.2.(a).(1).(a),
(b), and (c) below, stabilization
measures shall be initiated as soon as
practicable in portions of the site where
construction activities have temporarily
or permanently ceased, but in no case
more than 14 days after the construction
activity in that portion of the site has
temporarily or permanently ceased.
(a). Where the initiation of
stabilization measures by the 14th day
after construction activity temporary or
permanently cease is precluded by snow
cover, stabilization measures shall be
initiated as soon as practicable.
(b). Where construction activity will
resume on a portion of the site within 21
days from when activities ceased, (e.g.
the total time period that construction
activity is temporarily ceased is less
than 21 days) then stabilization
measures do not have to be initiated on
that portion of site by the 14th day after
construction activity temporarily
ceased.
(c). In arid areas (areas with an
average annual rainfall of 0 to 10 inches)
and semi -arid areas (areas with an
average annual rainfall of 10 to 20
inches), where the initiation of
stabilization measures by the 14th day
after construction activity has
temporarily or permanently ceased is
pnytluded by seasonal and conditions.

check dams, subsurface drains, pipe
slope drains, level spreaders, storm
drain inlet protection, rock outlet
protection, reinforced soil retaining
systems, gabions, and temporary or
permanent sediment basins. Structural
practices should be placed on upland
soils to the degree attainable. The
installation of these devices may be
subject to Section 404 of the CWA.
(a) For common drainage locations
that serve an area with 10 or more
disturbed acres at one time, a temporary
(or permanent) sediment basin providing _
MW cubic feet of storage per acre
drained, or equivalent control measures,
shall be provided where attainable until
final stabilization of the site. The 3,600
cubic feet of storage area per acre
drained does not apply to flows from
offsite areas and flows from onsite areas
that are either undisturbed or have
undergone final stabilization where such "—
flows are diverted around both the
disturbed area and the sediment basin.
For drainage locations which serve 10 or
more disturbed acres at one time and
where a temporary sediment basin
providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per
acre drained, or equivalent controls is
not attainable, smaller sediment basins --
and/or sediment traps should be used.
At a minimum, silt fences, or equivalent
sediment controls are required for all
sideslope and downslope boundaries of
the construction area.
(b) For drainage locations serving less
than 10 acres, sediment basins and/or
sediment traps should be used. At a
minimum, silt fences or equivalent
sediment controls are required for all
sideslope and downslope boundaries of
the construction area unless a sediment
basin providing storage for 3,600 cubic
feet of storage per acre drained is
provided.
b. Storm water management. A
description of measures that will be
installed during the construction process
to control pollutants in storm water
discharges that will occur after _
construction operations have been
completed. Structural measures should
be placed on upland soils to the degree
attainable. The installation of these
devices may be subject to Section 404 of
the CWA. This permit only addresses
