Governing Specifications

The Standard Specifications for Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects, FP-

03, USDOT, shall be the governing specifications for this project. The contract documents, details and drawings are the governing provisions applicable to this project.

Project Areas

The project area is located in Pocahontas County, West Virginia approximately 8 miles northwest of

Marlinton in the upper Williams River watershed. This contract involves prescribed road decommissioning and road storage treatments for the following roads on the Marlinton Ranger District of the Monongahela National Forest: FR1797, M-176, WR-15, M-151, M-174, WR-11, WR-12, M-154 and all intersecting skid roads.

Project Area Access

Forest Roads 86, 216, 461, 1796, and State Route 17/4 provide access to the project area. Any damages to Forest Service System roads resulting from equipment mobilization must be rehabilitated. Example:

damage to existing road surfaces or drainage features must be repaired.

Base Bid and Optional Bid Items

This contract consists of a Base Bid and 1 Optional Bid Item. Contractors should bid on all items.

Bids should reflect the potential for this contract to be awarded for the Base Bid Item as a minimum award. The Optional Bid Item will be awarded as funding allows.

Other Contracts

Contract work shall not interfere with or inhibit work on other contracts in the area.

Equipment Cleaning

Equipment and vehicles used during the project shall be free of soil, seeds, vegetative debris, or other matter that could contain seeds or plant parts when such equipment arrives on National Forest land. Any necessary cleaning of equipment and vehicles shall not be conducted on National Forest land.

Waste Sites

No waste sites have been identified for this project. Any excess material will be wasted along the road in conjunction with road obliteration activities.

Decompaction of Road Tread

Existing road tread will be decompacted to a minimum depth of 12 inches. This will be completed in areas of outslope, concave areas and decompaction only areas. The cost for this decompaction will be included in items 211.01(b)- Road Obliteration, and in 211- Decompaction.

Outsloping

In areas requiring outsloping, the road will be outsloped to the minimum slope specified (for example, 15%) by removing road fill material and placing it on the cut slope and inside portion of the road. This will be completed in a manner that results in a gradual transition between the newly established grade and the existing slopes immediately adjacent to the treated areas. Where the natural slope above and below the road corridor is less than the degree of outsloping prescribed for the road, the final outslope of

General Notes Page 2 of 3 the road shall match that of the natural grade. Roads segments with a full recontour prescription will require similar actions as other outsloping prescriptions except all the road fill material will be removed and placed on the cut slope to achieve a final slope the reflects the natural slope as much as possible. If material on site is not sufficient to obtain the prescribed degree of outsloping or full recontouring, the greatest degree of outsloping that can be attained with the material on site shall be sufficient. No additional material will be brought in to achieve the outslope prescription. Outsloping at the intersections of two or more roads will reflect a continuous outslope of the excavated intersection.

Areas requiring a concave crossing are included in this item. Concave crossings will be constructed so that fill will be removed from the outside edge of the road, but will not be deposited on the inside edge, therefore achieving a depression across the entire road corridor. The excess material from concave crossings will be wasted along an adjacent outsloped area. See Project Drawings and Project Details for more information.

Channel Restoration Sites

Channels and floodplain areas will be excavated to reflect and blend with more natural conditions found upstream and downstream from the road crossing. See Project Details and Project Drawings for appropriate channel dimensions. The cost for channel crossings will be included in item 211.01(b) of

Road Obliteration actions such as Outsloping and Outsloping without Decompaction.

Stream Crossings

Stream crossings are similar to channel restoration sites, in that they will be excavated to reflect and blend with more natural conditions found upstream and downstream from the road crossing. These are typically smaller than channel restoration sites, and therefore require less excavation. The location and width requirements for stream crossings are identified in the Project Drawings and the Road Log. The cost for stream crossings will be included in item 211.01(b) of Road Obliteration actions such as

Outsloping and Outsloping without Decompaction.

Areas of No Excavation

In areas requiring no excavation, if ruts develop in the road bed during implementation of this project, they shall be removed. Ruts in this context shall be defined as extending deeper than 2 inches into the road bed and extending for greater than 40 feet.

Removal of Existing Drainage Structures

Existing culverts will be removed from the project area and public land, and will become property of the contractor. The road log identifies the locations of culverts. All culverts encountered in areas of outsloping and full recontour shall be removed, even if not specifically identified in road log. The cost for removal shall be included in item 211.01(b) of Road Obliteration actions such as Outsloping and

Outsloping without Decompaction.

Removal of Trees and Vegetation

All trees that need to be felled to facilitate road obliteration will be left on site. They will be evenly scattered throughout the final grade or in stream crossings, as directed by contract administrators. Trees will not be windrowed on the final grade. The contractor will make every effort to avoid disturbing larger trees. The cost for vegetation removal shall be included in item 211.01(b) of Road Obliteration actions such as Outsloping and Outsloping without Decompaction.

General Notes Page 3 of 3

Sediment and Pollution Control

Sediment runoff will be controlled at all stream and water crossings during travel to and from active work site. This may include temporary hay bale placement at outflows.

All equipment shall be equipped with a spill kit in case of fluid leaks or spills. This shall include fluid absorption pads. Any equipment leak or spill shall be reported to contract administrators as soon as possible.

Seeding and Mulching

All disturbed areas shall be seeded and mulched within 7 days of disturbance. Seeding and mulching must be done in a manner that does not leave ruts in or compact the finished grade. See project details for more information.

Barrier Rocks

Boulders will be placed in the locations identified in the Road Logs to help prevent motor vehicle access to roads being treated under this contract. Boulder placement may be directed by the designated contract administrator. Boulders will be approximately 4’ median diameter, be partially buried to inhibit their movement, and be positioned to effectively restrict motor vehicle access (including ATVs). Native rocks may be used if they are available on site and occur within the typical disturbance perimeter of other actions required by this contract.

Waste Materials

All trash in the project area, whether pre-existing or produced as a by-product of activities required in this contract, shall be removed from National Forest Systems lands and disposed of properly.

Final Grade

The final grade of all excavated areas shall be bucket placed to eliminate the potential for soil compaction or rutted surfaces.

Utilities

It is the responsibility of the contractor to contact MISS UTILITY (1.800.245.4848) prior to beginning construction on this contact to determine the need for special precautions related to public utilities.

Q- Do you have to do both contracts at the same time or can you do one then the other?

A- Both contracts have time limits from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed that must be met.

Q- So are you doing away with the roads?

A- Some will be decommissioned and some will be put in a state of storage because we will not need them for awhile. The road prescriptions include full recontour, outslope, decompacting and storage. Refer to the road log for locations.

Q- What do we do with the timber and brush cut? Do we chip it?

A- All vegetation will be left on the finished surface scattered about, not windrowed and not buried in the fill.

Q- How is the overflow spillway paid?

A- The stone is included in the riprap item and the excavation in the outsloping.

Q- Is ATV access allowed?

A- Yes, we are allowing access by ATV and behind gates after 1pm for potential bidders by issuing permits that must be on hand while field reviewing. Bidders must inform the Marlinton Ranger Station when and where they will be.

Q- What is the weight limit on the bridge on FR999?

A- Not sure, although loaded logging trucks travel over it. Contractors would want to look for a turnaround spot up this road, may need to unload before bridge anyway.

Q- What types of streams are available on these roads for hydroseeding?

A- This varies by road. Contractor will need to look at potential water sources and include this as part of their proposal.

Q- Are all of the culverts to be removed metal?

A- Yes, most are corrugated metal pipes and some are steel pipes.

Q- When do you anticipate this project starting?

A- Probably late June, early July. We are planning on having both completed this field season.

Q- Do we need to remove the gate on FR171 and do we get to keep it?

A- It will be removed but left on site. Although the removed culverts become the property of the contractor and must be disposed of properly.

Q- Does our erosion control plan need to be approved by the DEP?

A- No, this will be included as part of your proposal and method to accomplish work.

Q- Will we just bring up the fill and place it on the cut slope to achieve the outslope?

A- Yes, the fill will be placed on the inside of the road bed to accomplish the outslope. All road surfaces must be decompacted to a minimum of 12 inches unless otherwise specified.

Q- If there is a pool below a culvert is that sufficient for a sediment control pond?

A- Yes, if necessary but we would prefer to prevent the sediment reaching the stream to begin with. Sediment should be controlled as soon as possible on the downhill side of the project, generally before a pool. That is good aquatic habitat and we do not want to fill it up with sediment. Any sediment collected down slope from the project should be removed when finished with that site.

Q- Will you be able to drive through the ditch and culvert relief dips?

A- They are not designed that way.

Q- Can the concrete footers to be removed be crushed and left on site?

A- No, they must be removed. It is up to the contractor to remove any waste and dispose of it properly.

Q- What do we do with the allotment?

A- All improvements within the allotment accessing M-171A shall be maintained and left in a state as good as or better than before the project. Cattle will be in the allotment during the project and they must continue to be contained in the allotment throughout construction.

Q- Will we need to bring in rock to armor the stream crossings?

A- No, but if you encounter large rock while excavating down to the stream bottom, we would prefer that it be left in the crossing for armor.

Q- Are we allowed to ATV into the project before 1 pm on Sunday?

A- Yes, that is allowed since there is no hunting on Sundays.
