About this file

This is an Acceptable Quality Levels exhibit document for the State of Oregon's Interstate 5 MP 48.3 to 50 Clear Zone Tree Removal project. The document establishes quality standards and performance requirements for tree removal and clearing work intended to improve sight distance along the specified highway corridor. The work encompasses clearing trees and limbs, trimming marked trees, establishing clear zones for signage, and removing and disposing of trees and limbs within designated areas as directed by the contracting agency.

The exhibit defines specific quality standards organized by defect category, distinguishing between major and minor defects with corresponding allowable tolerances per mile. Major defect categories include tree damage exceeding 30 percent of the tree bole, horizontal clearance failures affecting more than 20 percent of the work area, vertical clearance deficiencies, height clearance issues, and drainage impedance. Minor defects allow up to ten occurrences per mile for tree damage, five per mile for clearance issues, and two per mile for drainage concerns. Oversized material remaining on road surfaces or in drainage structures is subject to zero tolerance regardless of classification. All defects require rework, with work suspension mandated for non-compliance with approved safety plans, traffic control measures, and signage requirements. The contractor must maintain work area management practices that do not impede sight distance.
