1.7 IMPORTED MATERIAL ACCEPTANCE

A. All imported earth materials specified in this section are subject to the following requirements:

1. The Contractor shall make all gradation tests to locate acceptable sources of imported material.

The Contractor shall perform two initial gradation tests for all material to be imported from off-site locations. For each additional 1,000 cubic yards of material, the contractor shall perform one additional gradation test. Certification that the material conforms to the Specification requirements along with copies of the test results from a qualified commercial testing laboratory shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer for approval at least 21 calendar days before the material is required for use. All material samples shall be a minimum of 40 pounds and furnished by the Contractor at the Contractor's sole expense. Samples shall be representative and be clearly marked to show the source of the material and the intended use on the project. Sampling of the material source shall be done by the Contractor in accordance with ASTM D-75. Tentative acceptance of the material shall be based on an inspection of the source by the Contracting Officer and/or the certified test results submitted by the Contractor to the Contracting Officer at the Contracting Officer’s discretion. No imported materials shall be delivered to the site until the proposed source and the Contracting Officer tentatively accepted materials tests in writing. Final acceptance will be based on Quality Control and Quality Assurance tests made on samples of material taken from the completed and compacted course.

2. Gradation tests for the proposed materials shall be made on samples taken at the place of production prior to shipment. Samples of the finished product for gradation testing shall be taken as directed by the Contracting Officer if variation in gradation is occurring, or if the material appears to depart from the Specifications. Test results shall be forwarded to the Contracting Officer within 48 hours of testing.

3. If tests conducted by the Contractor or the Contracting Officer indicate that the material does not meet Specification requirements, material placement will be terminated until corrective measures are taken. Material that does not conform to the Specification requirements and is placed in the work shall be removed and replaced at the Contractor's sole expense. Retesting of material that does not meet specification requirements shall be performed at the Contractor's sole expense.

4. The Contractor shall sample all imported soil at a minimum frequency of one (1) per thousand (1,000) cubic yards to verify materials free of contamination. The soil shall be tested for the following: volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (EPA method 8260), Poly-Nuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) (EPA method 8270), total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH), and RCRA 8 Metals.
