About this file
This document outlines the additional requirements for a state and local contract opportunity for aggregate/screenings in the state of Nevada, involving the Carson City jurisdiction. The contract requires the successful bidder to supply pre-coated screenings with specific asphalt content and moisture levels, and deliver the materials to designated stockpile locations. The contract is primarily for use by the Nevada Department of Transportation, though other state agencies, cities, counties, or political subdivisions may also place orders. The contract does not specify a definite quantity, and the state reserves the right to obtain materials from the next lowest bidder if the awarded contractor cannot supply the materials. The contract also includes insurance requirements, weight slip provisions, and clauses regarding pricing, cancellation, and deductions for excess moisture content.
The document outlines specific pricing terms, including that product price increases will not be honored during the contract term. Invoices must reference the corresponding requisition or purchase order number and delivery ticket number, and will be paid directly to the vendor by the using agency upon verification and approval. The state reserves the right to bid separately on jobs requiring more than 500 tons if it can realize a savings by doing so on a definite quantity/firm delivery basis.

The policies are to contain or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions: |
| 1. The State of Nevada, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers are to be covered as additional insured’s as respects: liability arising out of activities performed by or on behalf of the Contractor and said coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded the State. | |

16) Material Pit Designation and Usage: Unless an NDOT material site is specifically designated for use, it shall be assumed that no such NDOT facility is available for use on this contract.
17) Supply pre-coated screenings in the quantity as specified in the estimate. Pre-coat the screenings with 0.75% AC-10, PG 58-28 or PG 70-22TR, as specified at the time of order, by dry weight of aggregate. Pre-coat the screenings by combining the aggregates and asphalt in a Hot Plant. Stockpile the pre-coated screenings no more than three weeks prior to use. To prevent loss of adhesion between screenings and asphalt, ensure that the aggregates meet all specifications, including gradation and cleanness value, prior to coating.
18) Moisture of 5% is allowable on all aggregate material purchases. If moisture content of ordered material is above the allowable 5%, that moisture above the 5 % will be deducted from the total weight on the invoice. For example if 500 tons is ordered at $20 per ton for a total of $10,000, and test results indicate 8% moisture, multiply 500 tons by the percent moisture that is above the 5% allowable (3%); Example (500 tons X .03 moisture = 15 tons of moisture). Therefore, 15 tons will be subtracted from the total of 500 tons, and payment will be adjusted to 485 tons at $20 for a total due of $9,700.
19) Stockpile Location: The Department of Transportation will specify the acceptable type of haul truck (belly dump, end dump, transfer, side dump, etc.) at the time the order is placed with the successful vendor. Material delivered must be placed at requested stockpile location. NDOT will stack material delivered unless otherwise specified with in this bid.
