About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document from a federal contract solicitation addressing project specifications for pavement construction work.
The document clarifies three key project requirements. First, regarding stone base depth, the Statement of Work specifies a minimum of 8 inches of base rock compacted to 95 percent Maximum Dry Density, using Aggregate Base Course Type A that meets Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) standards. Second, the asphalt mix depth specification requires a minimum of 4 inches of asphalt to be installed across the entire site. Third, for water supply during grading operations, the USDA has identified two potential sources: water access at Building 7 (pressure unknown) and a fire hydrant on the other side of Building 4. The contractor must comply with all state and local regulations if using the fire hydrant, and the USDA assumes no responsibility for such use.
