SPECIFICATION T-800 DEFINITIONS

Wherever the following terms or pronouns are used, the intent and meaning shall be interpreted as follows:

800-1.1—Agreement—Maintenance projects require a mutually acceptable method to resolve the problems which arise when incompatible situations arise between drawings and specifications and actual conditions on the ground to allow orderly and satisfactory progress of the maintenance.

These specifications have been developed in anticipation of those problem areas and have provided that such changes will be by Agreement.

It is intended that drawings and specifications will govern unless "on-the-ground" conditions warrant otherwise, when specifications call for "Agreement", "agreed", or "approval" such Agreement or approval shall be promptly confirmed in writing.

800-1.2—Annual Road Maintenance Plan—A plan prepared by various users of one or several roads. The plan is an Agreement on maintenance responsibilities to be performed for the coming year.

800-1.3—Base Course—Material used to reinforce Subgrade or, as shown on drawings, placed on Subgrade to distribute wheel loads.

800-1.9—Drainage Dip—A dip in the Traveled Way which intercepts surface runoff and diverts the water off the Traveled Way. A Drainage Dip does not block the movement of traffic.

800-1.10—Drainage Structures—Manufactured structures which control the runoff of water from the Roadway including Inslope, overside drains, aprons, flumes, downdrains, downpipes, culverts and the like.

800-1.11—Dust Abatement Plan—A table which lists the road, dust palliative, application rates, and estimated number of subsequent applications.

800-1.12—Lead-off Ditches—A ditch used to transmit water from a Drainage Structure or Drainage Dip outlet to the natural drainage area.

800-1.13 —Material—Any substances specified for use in the performance of the work.

800-1.14—Prehaul Maintenance—Road maintenance work which must be accomplished to maintain the roads to a satisfactory condition commensurate with the Contractor's use, provided Contractor's operations do not damage improvements in Section H.21 of the contract/solicitation or National Forest resources and hauling can be done safely. This work will be shown in the above Road Maintenance Requirements.

Prehaul Maintenance work the Contractor elects to perform will be in compliance with the Road Maintenance T- Specifications.

Page 7 of 19 Northern Hills Ranger District

800-1.15—Right-of-Way—A general term denoting:

(1) The privilege to pass over land in some particular line (including easement, lease, permit, or license to occupy, use, or traverse public or private lands), or

800-1.17—Road Maintenance Requirements—A table which shows applicable road maintenance specifications to be performed by Contractor on specific roads.

800-1.18—Roadside—A general term denoting the area adjoining the outer edge of the Roadway.

800-1.19—Roadway—The portion of a road within the limits of excavation and embankment.

800-1.20—Shoulder—That portion of Roadway contiguous with Traveled Way for accommodation of stopped vehicles, for emergency use, and lateral support of base and Surface Course, if any.

800-1.21—Slide—A concentrated deposit of Materials from above or on backslope extending onto the Traveled Way or Shoulders, whether caused by mass land movements or accumulated raveling.

800-1.22—Slough—Material eroded from the backslope which partially or completely blocks the ditch, but does not encroach on the Traveled Way so as to block passage of traffic.

800-1.23—Slump—A localized portion of the Roadbed which has slipped or otherwise become lower than that of the adjacent Roadbed and constitutes a hazard to traffic.

For roads without Base Course or Surface Course, that portion of Roadbed prepared as the finished wearing surface.

800-1.26—Surface Course—The Material placed on Base Course or Subgrade primarily to resist abrasion and the effects of climate. Surface Course may be referred to as surfacing.

800-1.27—Surface Treatment Plan—A table which lists the roads and surface treatments to be applied.

800-1.28—Traveled Way—That portion of Roadway, excluding Shoulders, used for the movement of vehicles.

800-1.29—Turnouts—That portion of the Traveled Way constructed as additional width on single lane roads to allow for safe passing of vehicles.

800-1.30—Water Source—A place designated on the Road Maintenance Map for acquiring water for road maintenance purposes.

800-1.31—Waterbar—A dip in the Roadbed which intercepts surface runoff and diverts the water off the Roadway. A Waterbar is not designed to be traversable by logging trucks.

3.4—Potholes (deep patch)—Surface Course and Base Course Materials shall be excavated to a depth necessary to reach firm, suitable Material. The minimum depth of excavation shall be 2 inches and the maximum depth of excavation shall be to the top of the Subgrade.

The edges of the prepared hole shall be extended to form a vertical face in unfractured asphalt surfacing. The prepared hole shall generally be circular or rectangular in shape, dry, and cleaned of all loose Material.

Prepared potholes shall be patched or barricaded immediately.

The faces of the prepared hole shall be tacked with a slow-setting emulsified asphalt.
