GENERAL PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:

Upper Macungie Township is an upper-middle class suburban municipality with numerous local roads along which are located various housing types including apartments, townhouses and duplex and single-family houses.

Given the age of many of the roadways, the Township is required to undertake extensive roadway maintenance and rehabilitation projects in order to preserve and/or extend the design life of the numerous roads.

In the past the Township made extensive use of the standard "oil and chip" process to maintain what at the time were primarily two-lane rural roads along which were located very few houses. With the suburbanization of the

Township over the past several decades, many of the current roadways are within developments along which there are many houses. This changed condition has compelled the Township to resort to alternatives to "oil and chip" to eliminate the adverse impacts on Township residents stemming from the shedding of loose chips and the "tracking" of asphalt which not only damages vehicles but impacts the interior of homes when the asphalt adheres to footwear.

Prior experience on projects has demonstrated that the use of High-Performance Chip Seal followed by an application of Quick Set Fog Seal such as Grip-Tight or approved equal is a cost-effective roadway rehabilitation method to accomplish the above goal without the historical problems associated with standard "oil and chip" treatment.

The following general performance standards in addition to the material specifications will govern the use of one-size aggregate and the determination as to the acceptability of Fog Seal products other than Grip-Tight for use on the project:

• Fast curing time after application with the surface generally available for traffic after 30 minutes and ready for the application of striping after one hour.

• No traffic restrictions are required during application of High-Performance Chip Seal.

• Maximum tire friction due to the contact of tires with more chips resulting from the uniform aggregate gradation.

• Minimal shedding of chips following placement of the Fog Seal.

• Minimal bleeding and "tracking" of asphalt due to the penetration and "knitting" of the underlying asphalt to the uniform stone and the quick set time of the Fog Seal surface treatment.

• Resistance to water intrusion due to the Fog Seal surface treatment.

7.07 Concerning Subcontractors and Suppliers

A. Contractor may retain Subcontractors and Suppliers for the performance of parts of the Work.

Such Subcontractors and Suppliers must be acceptable to Owner. The Contractor's retention of a Subcontractor or Supplier for the performance of parts of the Work will not relieve

Contractor's obligation to Owner to perform and complete the Work in accordance with the

Contract Documents.

B. Contractor shall retain specific Subcontractors and Suppliers for the performance of designated parts of the Work if required by the Contract to do so.

C. Subsequent to the submittal of Contractor's Bid or final negotiation of the terms of the

Contract, Owner may not require Contractor to retain any Subcontractor or Supplier to furnish or perform any of the Work against which Contractor has reasonable objection.

D. Prior to entry into any binding subcontract or purchase order, Contractor shall submit to

Owner the identity of the proposed Subcontractor or Supplier (unless Owner has already deemed such proposed Subcontractor or Supplier acceptable during the bidding process or otherwise). Such proposed Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed acceptable to Owner unless Owner raises a substantive, reasonable objection within 5 days.

E. Owner may require the replacement of any Subcontractor or Supplier. Owner also may require Contractor to retain specific replacements; provided, however, that Owner may not require a replacement to which Contractor has a reasonable objection. If Contractor has submitted the identity of certain Subcontractors or Suppliers for acceptance by Owner, and

Owner has accepted it (either in writing or by failing to make written objection thereto), then

Owner may subsequently revoke the acceptance of any such Subcontractor or Supplier so identified solely on the basis of substantive, reasonable objection after due investigation.

Contractor shall submit an acceptable replacement for the rejected Subcontractor or

Supplier.

F. If Owner requires the replacement of any Subcontractor or Supplier retained by Contractor to perform any part of the Work, then Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment in

Contract Price or Contract Times, with respect to the replacement; and Contractor shall initiate a Change Proposal for such adjustment within 30 days of Owner's requirement of replacement.

G. No acceptance by Owner of any such Subcontractor or Supplier, whether initially or as a replacement, will constitute a waiver of the right of Owner to the completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
