Freeman: Option A: Bee Run Fee Machine 1. Remove existing temporary gravel surface as necessary and stockpile material at the Bee Run stockyard located beside Bee Run Campground. 2. Grade the area such that the new surface will tie-in to the existing roadway grade (elevation) and drain away from the existing roadway. si 3. Install Item 307 Crushed Aggregate Base Course. The Minimum Thickness of the base shall be 8", however, the aggregate base thickness may be reduced as necessary if competent solid rock is encountered within the proposed elevation of the base. 4. Install a minimum 3.5-inch thick (compacted) course of Item 401 Base II Asphalt. 5. Mill an Edge Key along the edge of the existing roadway pavement where it abuts the new pavement being installed. Edge key depth shall be 1.5" and the width shall be a minimum of 12" and a maximum of 24". 6. Install a minimum 1.5-inch thick (compacted) layer of Item 401 Wearing Course III Asphalt over the new asphalt base course and edge key; including Item 408 Tack Coat and Item 708.9 Joint Sealant. Tack Coat is required between the new surface course and the existing asphalt and new base course. Joint sealant is required in the crack between the new surface course and existing pavement. 7. Approximate area is 616 square yards as shown in Exhibit A. Option B: Bee Run Road Repair 1. Approximately 110 yards roadway affected. Install a minimum 1.5-inch thick (compacted) layer of Item 401 Wearing Course III Asphalt over the new asphalt base course and edge key; including Item 408 Tack Coat and Item 708.9 Joint Sealant. Tack Coat is required between the new surface course and the existing asphalt and new base course. Joint sealant is required in the crack between the new surface course and existing pavement. Approximate location is shown in Exhibit B. Option C: Gerald R Freeman Road Repair 1. Approximately 450 yards roadway affected. Install a minimum 1.5-inch thick (compacted) layer of Item 401 Wearing Course III Asphalt over the new asphalt base course and edge key; including Item 408 Tack Coat and Item 708.9 Joint Sealant. Tack Coat is required between the new surface course and the existing asphalt and new base course. Joint sealant is required in the crack between the new surface course and existing pavement. Approximate location is shown in Exhibit C. Contractor shall bid on each option as a separate line item. The government may award complete contract or individual options. Asphalt paving requirementS Crushed Aggregate Base Course: The Contractor shall remove the existing stone surface and excavate to grade to accommodate the new pavement cross-section. All removed stone shall be stockpiled at the Boneyard area as shown on Attachment A. A new Item 307 Crushed Aggregate Base Course shall be installed a minimum of 8" thickness and compacted in accordance with Section 307 of the WVDOH Standard Specifications. The base course thickness may be reduced if competent solid rock is encountered within the limits of the required thickness of the base course such that the specified surface grade and asphalt pavement cross-section is maintained. Surface Preparation: The Contractor shall clean any existing pavement surfaces that will overlain immediately prior to paving by sweeping or flushing well with water or a combination of both. Contractor shall ensure that the surface is free of dust, dirt, grease, vegetation, oil, standing water or any type of objectionable surface film. The Contractor shall remove oil or grease that has not penetrated the asphalt pavement by scraping or by scrubbing with a general-purpose detergent and washing thoroughly with clean water. After cleaning, these areas shall be treated with an oil spot primer. The Government will remove and re-install parking blocks. The Contractor is not responsible for moving any parking blocks (if present). The Contractor will need to pave around the fee machines in the area as shown in Exhibit D. Milling shall be performed by the Contractor to provide an Edge Key in the areas where existing asphalt roadways adjoin the new surface overlay. The Contractor shall mill the areas to a minimum depth of 1.5 inches to accommodate a smooth transition with the new pavement. Edge key shall be extended up to 10-feet past the new paving limits to remove any damaged or weathered pavement that abuts the new work. Milling width shall be 12" minimum and 24" maximum but shall be extended as needed to remove adjoining damaged or weathered pavement. The Contractor shall apply a tack coat of emulsified asphalt or equivalent in accordance with Section 408 of the WVDOH Standard Specifications. Immediately prior to paving, the tack coat shall be applied to the clean surface at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gallons per square yard. Pools of primer material remaining on the surface after application shall be removed. All traffic not essential to the work shall be kept off the tack coat. Care shall be taken when applying the tack coat to prohibit the spray from adhering to any objects other than the surface to be paved. The Contractor shall be responsible for removing over-spray tack coat. The Contractor shall apply the tack coat only to the areas he/she will resurface each day. Materials: Overlay wearing course asphalt shall be plant-mixed 64/22 Mix Dense-graded Asphalt or equivalent, having a small Nominal Maximum Aggregate Size (NMAS) of #8 or less. The aggregate shall be skid resistant. Base course asphalt shall be used for the repaired areas. Base shall be a plant-mixed asphalt equivalent to the industry standard for West Virginia - plant mix type Base 2 aggregate or equivalent. Application: Asphalt courses shall be spread and struck off with a screed-type paving machine. Any irregularities in the surface of the pavement course shall be corrected directly behind the paver. Excess material forming high spots shall be removed with a shovel or lute. Indented areas shall be filled with hot mix and smoothed; casting of mix over such areas shall not be permitted. Paving operations shall be as continuous as possible. The Contractor shall arrange paving to provide hot joints wherever possible. Where it is necessary to leave a cold joint, the edge shall be squared vertically and horizontally and compacted. When matching a cold joint, the Contractor shall paint the joint with emulsion prior to paving. Areas where it is impractical to use a paver or spread box, asphalt surface courses may be spread and finished by hand. Wood or steel forms, rigidly supported to assure correct grade and cross section, may be used. Placing by hand shall be performed carefully to avoid segregation of the mix. Broadcasting of the material shall not be permitted. Any lumps that do not break down readily shall be removed. The Contractor shall maintain existing crown and slope and ensure that final grade properly drains surface water. Compaction: The Contractor shall utilize rolling equipment of adequate size and weight and begin rolling as soon as the hot mix material can be compacted without displacement. Rolling shall continue until thoroughly compacted and all roller marks have been worked out. In areas too small for roller, a vibrating compactor or hand tamper shall be used to achieve thorough compaction. Prior coordination with the Resource Manager is required to minimize impacts to the park users and project personnel.
