About this file
This document is a federal specification for remove and end haul materials (Section 832), dated October 2016, detailing technical requirements for loading, hauling, and disposing of slide, slough, or excess materials during road construction or maintenance projects. The specification outlines two primary placement methods: Method 1 involves side casting and end dumping with a requirement to fill voids with smaller materials, while Method 2 requires layer placement with materials compacted in horizontal layers no more than 12 inches thick. Measurement and payment are structured in cubic yards or yard miles, with four distinct pay items: removal, haul, and disposal using either Method 1 or Method 2, each with specific unit pricing to be determined in the contract's Schedule of Items.

b. Slide and slough materials to be removed shall include those in the area extending approximately six (6) feet vertically above the road surface and that area extending not more than four (4) feet down slope from the roadbed. Material shall be disposed of at designated sites as shown on Drawings or identified in Special Project Specifications.
c. The slope which generated the slide material shall be reshaped as nearly as practical to its original condition by equipment operating from road surface. Reshaping of roadside ditches in slide area shall be in accordance with Section 831.
d. When ordered by the Government, slumps shall be filled by compacting selected materials into roadway depressions. Compaction shall be by Method (2).
e. All materials removed and placed in disposal sites shall be placed by one or more of the following methods as shown in Road Listing, Special Project Specifications, or

1) Method 1: Side Casting and End Dumping. Material may be placed by side casting and end dumping. Where materials include large rocks, a solid fill shall be provided by working smaller pieces and fines into voids. The finished surfaces shall be shaped to drain.
2) Method 2: Layer Placement - Surfaces on which materials are to be placed shall be stepped or roughened prior to placing any material. Materials shall be placed in approximately horizontal layers no more than twelve (12) inches thick. Each layer shall be compacted by operating hauling and spreading equipment over the full width of each layer.
3. MEASUREMENT
a. Removal will be measured by the cubic yard, determined by equipment measure, for materials acceptably removed.
b. Except as provided in 2(a) of this Section, haul of materials will be measured by the cubic yard mile, determined by the number of miles hauled times the cubic yards.
Mileage will be measured one way rounded to the nearest 1/10 mile.
c. Placement of materials in disposal sites will be measured by the cubic yard in the hauling vehicle for materials acceptably placed.
4. PAYMENT
a. The accepted quantity will be paid for at the contract unit price shown in the Schedule of
Items.
b. Payment will be made under:
Pay Item Description Pay Unit
