SUMMARY

PART 1 GENERAL

1.01 SUMMARY

A. Project information.

B. Work covered by Contract Documents.

C. Use of premises.

D. Work restrictions.

E. Specification formats and conventions.

1.02 PROJECT

A. Project Name: Garnet Hill Recreation Area

1. Project Location: Pole Line Road, Ely, Nevada 89139.

B. Web-Base Project Software: Project software administered by Contractor will be used for purposes of managing communication and documents during the construction stage.

1. See Section 01 31 00 - Project Management and Coordination for requirements for using web-based Project software.

1.03 CONTRACT DESCRIPTION

A. Contract Type: A single prime contract based on a Stipulated Price as described in Document 00 52 00 - Agreement Form.

1.04 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

A. The Work consists of the following:

1. The project Garnet Hill Access Road begins at US 50 just after the Ruth turnoff. It is approximately 3.1 miles long winding through a series of switchbacks up to the Garnet Hill Trailhead facilities. Along the route are the Lower and the Upper Garnet Hill Campgrounds. The access road itself is between 10 and 14 feet wide in various places with unimproved shallow ditches running down each side of the single lane dirt road.

2. The intended improvements are to widen the road to a minimum of 20-feet to accommodate 2 lanes of traffic, to improve the drainage to mitigate seasonal washouts of the road and temporary flooding. Typical hydraulic tools for this include possible riprap ditches or other means of energy dissipation for higher flows and Arizona-crossings at low points of reoccurring flooding like at the approach from US 50. Further considerations are riprap slopes at potential riling or sloughing slopes on the route up the road in the steeper drop offs.

3. Proposed improvements also include a small 10-15 vehicle parking area at the edge of NDOT right of way at the beginning edge of the access road with signage as close to the turnout as allowable. Overhead power and underground fiber markings were observed in this area. In the first half mile of the road in the first curve up the canyon, three sizable limestone rock outcroppings were observed that limited access road width. An additional geotechnical investigation was performed to determine acceptable methods of outcropping removal to allow for widening efforts. These outcroppings will likely need to be removed and retaining walls will be added to provide hillside stability.

4. Widening this road will require a significant amount of fill to widen the road, as efforts will look to minimize cutting into the mountainside as much as practical to maintain site stability. Final drainage improvements may include placement of riprap protection and Arizona-crossings (concrete).

5. Additional improvements include the construction of campgrounds and trailheads along the access road per the design documents.

Conduct work in a manner that will minimize needs for disruption of normal Government operations. Provide minimum 72 hours advance notice to COR of activities that will impact normal Government operations. Secure COR's written approval of activities that will impact normal Government operations to avoid delays in overall construction and permit proper installation or work.

2. Driveways and Entrances: Keep driveways, parking and entrances serving premises clear and available to Government, Government employees, and emergency vehicles at all times. Do not use these areas for parking or storage of materials unless coordinated with the COR.

a. Schedule deliveries to minimize use of driveways and entrances.

b. Schedule deliveries to minimize space and time requirements for storage of materials and equipment on-site.

1.06 WORK RESTRICTIONS

A. On-Site Work Hours: Work shall be generally performed during normal business working hours of 5:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except when otherwise indicated.

1. Work Hours outside normal business hours may be allowed as coordinated with the COR.

C. No signs or advertisements shall be displayed on the construction site or within the premises unless approved by the COR.

D. Existing Utilities

1. Existing Utilities: Notify COR and utility companies of proposed locations and times for excavation.

2. Contractor shall be responsible for locating and preventing damage to known utilities. If damage occurs, repair utility at no additional expense to the Government.

3. If damage occurs to an unknown utility, repair utility. An equitable adjustment will be made in accordance with the Changes clause of the contract.

E. Existing Utility Interruptions: Do not interrupt utilities serving facilities occupied by Government or others unless permitted under the following conditions and then only after arranging to provide temporary utility services according to requirements indicated:

1. Notify COR not less than two business days in advance of proposed utility interruptions.

2. Do not proceed with utility interruptions without COR's written permission.
