Parking Lot Sealcoat Treatment and Striping

1. BACKGROUND:

The National Weather Service (NWS), Weather Forecast Office (WFO’s) in Pocatello, ID and Las Vegas, NV have parking lots that have not been resealed in 10-15 years and are in severe need of treatment. The existing surface has deteriorated with large cracks.

2. GENERAL INTENTION:

To obtain the services of crack repair, seal coat and re-striping parking stalls to include one handicap stall with handicap symbol.

3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:

The contractor shall provide all supervision, labor, tools, materials and equipment necessary to perform work as stated. All work and materials supplied shall be in accordance with these instructions, manufacturer’s specification, all applicable federal, state, local, OSHA, EPA, NEC, NFPA, building and facilities codes and criteria.

The Contractor Shall:

3.1. Provide, as necessary, sufficient traffic barricades while the work is in progress to restrict access to the work area until the sealer application and re-striping work is completed. Remove the barricades only after notifying the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) that the work is complete and vehicle access is authorized.

3.2. Contractor shall verify all measurements stated below for WFO specifications.

Total Asphalt area for each site is listed below.

● Pocatello, ID - 14,350 ft2

● Las Vegas, NV - 14,500 ft2

3.3. The material used is within its manufacturer stated shelf life; proof of shelf life shall be provided to the

COR.

3.4. Prior to surface cleaning, clean out all cracks using compressed air, and seal all cracks between 1/8” to 2” in the pavement using an approved crack sealant. The crack sealant shall be compatible with the surface sealer being applied to the asphalt paved areas of this project.

3.5. Repair cracks that are larger than 2” in width by saw cutting. Remove 6” of old material on each side of the crack (1 foot in total). Pack removed area with new asphalt.

3.6. Before applying the sealer, all foreign material shall be removed from the surfaces to be treated including stall striping tape, loose material, dirt, clay, oil and grease spots. Oil and grease spots shall be cleaned and spot primed. After the cleaning operation and prior to application of the sealer, the

Contractor will inspect the area to be treated to determine its ability to receive the sealer.

3.7. The asphalt sealer shall be of a type that has been used commercially in the specified areas for at least the past three years. The sealer shall also have a proven record of satisfactory performance based on the ability of the material to reduce the rate of loss of fines and to retard crack propagation of the pavement.

3.8. All pavement markings which existed prior to the application of the surface sealer shall be reestablished by the contractor after the manufacturer-recommended curing period. All guidelines and templates shall be furnished by the contractor. Finished edges of all markings shall be sharply outlined.
