SCOPE OF WORK

Statement of Work and Specifications

Repair and Resurfacing: Entrance Road and Paved Areas in Upstream Recreation Area Beech Fork Lake (Lavalette, WV)

GENERAL/OVERVIEW:

This contract is for repair and resurfacing of various identified sections of paved roadway at Beech Fork Lake, including portions of the primary entrance roadway, the juncture of the primary entrance roadway and the access road atop the dam, and a section of roadway exiting the Marina/Upstream Recreation Area parking lot and small connecting portion of the lot. The contract includes a base contract and three options. The entrance roadway ends at the Marina/Upstream Recreation Area parking lot. Traffic flow is one way and loops through the lot.

To exit the project traffic utilizes a paved exit lane connected to the lot that reconnects to the same two-way roadway.

The base contract consists of repair and resurfacing a section of approximately 210’ X 20’ of the existing entrance roadway to the Beech Fork Lake project. It is a two-lane double yellow-striped roadway. This section of pavement in the base contract is the most severely deteriorated and roughest section of pavement of all areas included herein. In addition to the age of the existing pavement, insufficient drainage issues within this stretch have compounded problems to the roadway. The inadequate drainage issues allow water to pond in the roadway and alongside it for extended durations after precipitation. As a result, water is attempting to migrate subsurface downgrade under the pavement, leading to stability issues in the road base and pavement. The base contract also includes the installation of an 18” culvert at a low elevation point within this stretch to remedy drainage issues and prevent water from laying upon and adjacent to the new pavement. Additionally, the 210’ base section will require replacement of the existing compromised base material to adequately support the new pavement. Further details for the base contract and both options will be listed for each directly below in the “Scope of Work” section.

Option 1 consists of repair and resurfacing of two sections of the existing entrance roadway that adjoin both the start and terminus of the 210’ X 20’ section in the base contract. The section entering the project prior to the base contract section is approximately 685’ x 20’ and the section beyond the base section is approximately 180’ x 20’. These two sections are also double yellow-striped roadway. Both sections have widespread damage to the pavement surface throughout, but not near the extent of the section in the base contract. There is an existing culvert in the 685’ stretch, located immediately after a gravel access road on the left in need of replacement. The culvert inlet is in the left ditch as you enter the project at this location and the outlet daylights on the base of the bank to the right of the roadway. The interior of the existing 15” galvanized culvert is over 50% filled with sediment and debris. A new 18” culvert at this low point is included to allow for adequate drainage for the paved roadway and gravel access roadway that has a ditch that also drains towards the culvert. The remaining 180’ x 20’ section beyond the base contract portion will only require repair and resurfacing with asphalt, no drains or excavations are required in this section of Option 1.

Option 2 of the contract consists of a portion of the paved upstream parking lot and the paved exit access road that it is connected to. The portion of the lot and the connected access exit road total approximately 3,600 square feet of paved surface. There are both pavement deterioration issues and drainage issues within this reach that need addressed. Temporary patching and repairs performed on the parking lot portion and transition to the access road completed almost 20 years ago were not performed correctly. As a result, water repeatedly ponds after precipitation in an 8- 10-foot-long section in this reach. Significant potholes have developed from these ongoing conditions. Grading measures along with adequate drainage features need to be incorporated into the repair in addition to the resurfacing work. Otherwise, any new pavement and resurfacing performed in this area will result in continuing ponding conditions and subsequent damages to new pavement. The project has purchased cold patch asphalt repair materials repeatedly over the years in attempt to temporarily remedy the potholes, but such repairs do not even last a full year.

The parking lot portion and transition area where the water repeatedly ponds are very flat, with the transition area being slightly lower. Just beyond the transition area where the road narrows there is an existing 18” galvanized culvert approximately 3.5-4’ below the roadway and drainage ditch on both sides that catch and convey runoff from other portions of the parking lot and areas upgrade and adjacent. Shortly after the culvert the access road increases in elevation rapidly compared to the transition area. Removal of the existing culvert and installing a slotted inlet riser drain and culvert would require extensive grading work to accomplish and would remove a structurally sound culvert that is performing adequately. To achieve adequate drainage and overcome grading constraints the installation of a load-rated precast grated surface drain is proposed. The grated surface drain would extend perpendicular across the roadway at the far end of the transition area when exiting. Minor regrading work will need to be performed from the beginning of the parking lot portion to this location to ensure water reaches the drain and the drain is at the lowest point from the lot and beyond the drain while exiting. The precast surface drain would need to have built-in slope and drainage would flow across the roadway from left to right and daylight into the same drainage ditch system via an outlet pipe that connects to the low end (east side upon exit) of the grated surface drain.

Option 3 includes repair and resurfacing of a smaller section of paved roadway. This section entails the beginning of the asphalt roadway on the crest of the dam where it ties into the access roadway to the project. The total area of pavement in need of repair and resurfacing at this location is approximately 450 square feet. To accomplish the repair and resurfacing the existing damaged 450 square foot pavement area will need to be milled and removed prior to the placement of new pavement. The new pavement will need to be installed in a manner that creates a smooth transition at the juncture of the two roadways and slightly sloped to allow water to drain readily to the east and prevent it from laying at the interface of the two roads to prevent future pavement damages.

The contractor will have 45 calendar days from the day the Contracting Officer issues the Notice to Proceed to complete all work on the base contract. Then with each Option (Option 1, Option 2 and Option 3) that is exercised, there will be an additional 45 calendar days added for the contract completion.

More information, details, figures, and pictures for the base contract and all three options will be included in the Scope of Work (SOW) section below for each and associated appendices. All figures/maps within the SOW are displayed in a northern orientation.

SCOPE OF WORK:

Base Contract: The contractor shall be responsible for having the entire area within the base contract surveyed for any underground utilities to allow them to be avoided or addressed appropriately and ensure safety to workers. The contractor shall utilize West Virginia 811 to survey for any underground utilities.

The general description of work to be performed under the base contract will require the contractor to furnish all equipment, materials, labor, supplies, and supervision necessary to accomplish the milling/removal of existing pavement, required repairs, subgrade removal and replacement, paving, and striping. The work will also require the contractor to furnish all equipment, materials, labor, supplies, and supervision necessary to install a new 18” culvert at a specified location within the base contract footprint specified by the government representative onsite. Additionally, the contractor will be responsible for providing all traffic control resources and equipment to accomplish such work and in accordance with all safety requirements contained within Appendix A of this document.

Contractor shall excavate trench and install approximately 40’ of 18” high density polypropylene pipe (rated for highway applications) across the roadway at a location specified by the government representative onsite. The 18” pipe shall have a smooth interior and annular exterior corrugations. The culvert shall have a slope of 1/8” per linear foot from the inlet to the outlet of the pipe. The inlet of the pipe will be off the right shoulder of the entrance road in the ditch line, on the exiting lane of the roadway. The outlet will extend just beyond the shoulder on the opposite side. Rip-Rap (4”x8”) stone protection shall be placed 3’ from the centerline of the pipe in each direction immediately adjacent to the inlet and 3’ from the centerline of the outlet in each lateral direction and extending 6’ below and beyond the outlet. The contractor shall excavate the pipe trench to allow for 18” of uniform trench on each side of the 18” diameter culvert to allow for a vibratory compactor to be used on each side of the pipe to properly compact gravel on each side. A minimum of 4” of crushed aggregate (free of particles less than 1 1/2”/40 mm) shall be placed below the pipe throughout its length prior to placing the pipe in the trench. The bedding aggregate under the center 1/3 of the pipe shall be loosely placed and uncompacted to allow for cradling of the pipe bottom, and the bedding outside of the middle 1/3 shall be compacted.

Contractor shall place and compact crushed aggregate (free of particles less than 1 1/2”/40 mm) on each side of the pipe in no more than 4” lift increments and shall be placed and compacted over the pipe to a level that results in a minimum of 18’’ of cover atop the pipe when combined with asphalt base layer and asphalt wearing course layers. Care shall be taken to compact the material under the haunches of the pipe, to place the backfill evenly on each side of the pipe to retain its vertical axis, and to avoid displacement. The backfill and compaction efforts shall be advanced simultaneously on both sides of the pipe. Compaction must be completed to a level of 90% of standard proctor on all the aggregate backfill material.

Note: The contractor shall install culvert prior to any other work included in the base contract to minimize the amount of time the roadway will have to be closed to traffic. The culvert shall be installed within one day, and work shall be limited to a non-holiday weekday to reduce the impacts to traffic and increased project visitation on weekends. Contractor shall notify the project no less than 24 hours in advance of the day they intend to install culvert. USACE and Beech Fork Lake Marina personnel will make provisions to have personal vehicles beyond the culvert location should they need to exit the project in the event of an emergency or essential circumstance. Upon completion of culvert installation, the contractor shall utilize West Virginia Division of Highways (WVDOH) approved steel road plates if grade conditions require them to allow traffic to pass until final paving work is completed.

Contractor shall install and maintain traffic control, saw cut perpendicular across the full width of the roadway at the start and end of the base contract section of roadway as specified by the government representative on site. These locations will be marked with high visibility marking paint by the government representative. Contractor shall mill/remove all existing asphalt in the marked 210’ x 20’ base section and additionally excavate approximately 12” total which will extend beyond the existing asphalt. Contractor shall remove existing aggregate base materials under asphalt with the grade of the existing section. Once removed to the specified level the contractor shall place and compact approximately 6” of Class 1 aggregate base to match existing grade conditions throughout the base section. Contractor shall apply asphalt bonding agent equally to the entire area of aggregate base and follow with placement of 4” of base course asphalt pavement to the entire section. After the base course has been completed the contractor shall place 2” inches of wearing course asphalt throughout the entire section to create the final paved roadway surface. Pavement shall be double striped at the center of the roadway width throughout the base section and shall be crowned at the centerline with a 2% slope extending to each side of the road shoulders upon completion of final wearing course pavement. Work shall be done in accordance with all current State & Federal Road Construction Specification, Rules & Regulations. Figure 1 on the following page shows the 210’ section of the base contract and where each portion of Option 1 connects to it.

Except for the day the new 18” culvert is installed, the contractor shall maintain traffic access for one lane of traffic, with a maximum of ½ hour delay and total closure during all other repair and paving operations. The contractor shall maintain traffic control and signage throughout the entire duration of the base contract and in accordance with the safety plan.

The contractor shall dispose of any excess soil, aggregate, and any asphalt millings not repurposed nearby onsite on lands owned by the Corps. The site is approximately ½ mile or less from all work areas included in this scope of work and is readily accessible. The disposal site is essentially flat and there are no grade/slope issues for hauling to the site. Figure 2 on page 7 shows the location of the disposal area. The government representative on site will show the contractor the disposal location. The contractor shall be responsible for the proper disposal offsite of all other excess materials not listed above generated during performance of the base contract.

Rip-Rap (4”x8”) stone protection shall be placed 3’ from the centerline of the pipe in each direction immediately adjacent to the inlet and 3’ from the centerline of the outlet on each lateral direction and extending 6’ below and beyond the outlet. The contractor shall excavate the pipe trench to allow for 18” of uniform trench on each side of the 18” diameter culvert to allow for a vibratory compactor to be used on each side of the pipe to properly compact gravel on each side. A minimum of 4” of crushed aggregate (free of particles less than 1 1/2”/40 mm) shall be placed below the pipe throughout its length prior to placing the pipe in the trench. The bedding aggregate under the center 1/3 of the pipe shall be loosely placed and uncompacted to allow for cradling of the pipe bottom, and the bedding outside of the middle 1/3 shall be compacted. Contractor shall place and compact crushed aggregate (free of particles less than 1 1/2”/40 mm) on each side of the pipe in no more than 4” lift increments and shall be placed and compacted over the pipe to a level that results in a minimum of 18’’ of cover atop the pipe when combined with asphalt base layer and asphalt wearing course layers. Care shall be taken to compact the material under the haunches of the pipe, to place the backfill evenly on each side of the pipe to retain its vertical axis, and to avoid displacement. The backfill and compaction efforts shall be advanced simultaneously on both sides of the pipe. Compaction must be completed to a level of 90% of standard proctor on all the aggregate backfill material.

Note: The contractor shall install culvert prior to any other work included in Option 1 to minimize the amount of time the roadway will have to be closed to traffic. The culvert shall be installed within one day, and work shall be limited to a non-holiday weekday to reduce the impacts to traffic and increased project visitation on weekends. Contractor shall notify the project no less than 24 hours in advance of the day they intend to install culvert. USACE and Beech Fork Lake Marina personnel will make provisions to have personal vehicles beyond the culvert location should they need to exit the project in the event of an emergency or essential circumstance. Upon completion of culvert installation, the contractor shall utilize West Virginia Division of Highways (WVDOH) approved steel road plates if grade conditions require them to allow traffic to pass.

Contractor shall install and maintain traffic control, saw cut perpendicular across the full width ofthe roadway at the start of the beginning and end of each section of roadway in Option 1. The contractor shall mill 2” of the existing asphalt throughout each section of Option 1. Contractor shall apply asphalt bonding agent equally to the entire area within each of the section. The contractor shall level milled surface in required spots on shoulders and spots within each section requiring leveling with scratch asphalt. The contractor shall place 2” of wearing course asphalt throughout the entire extent of each section. The pavement shall be double striped at the center of the roadway width throughout each section of Option 1 and shall be crowned at the centerline with a 2% slope extending to each side of the road shoulders upon completion of final wearing course pavement. Work shall be done in accordance with all current State & Federal Road Construction Specification, Rules & Regulations.

Except for the day the new 18” culvert is installed, the contractor shall maintain traffic access for one lane of traffic, with a maximum of ½ hour delay and total closure during all other repair and paving operations within Option 1. The contractor shall maintain traffic control and signage throughout the entire duration of Option 1 and in accordance with the safety plan.

The contractor shall dispose of any aggregate and asphalt millings not repurposed nearby onsite on lands owned by the Corps at the same location discussed in the base contract and shown in Figure 2 above. The contractor shall be responsible for the proper disposal offsite of all other excess materials not listed above generated during performance of Option 1.

Reference photos of the existing Option 1 sections can be found in Appendix C.

Option 2: The contractor shall be responsible for having the entire area within Option 2 surveyed for any underground utilities to allow them to be avoided or addressed appropriately and ensure safety to workers. The contractor shall utilize West Virginia 811 to survey for any underground utilities.

The general description of work to be performed under Option 2 will require the contractor to furnish all equipment, materials, labor, supplies, and supervision necessary to accomplish asphalt milling, leveling, required repairs, and paving within Option 2. The work will also require the contractor to furnish all equipment, materials, labor, supplies, and supervision necessary to install a pre-cast heavy duty grated drain at a specified location within the footprint of Option 2 specified by the government representative onsite. The entire area of Option 2 is approximately 3,600 square feet. Figure 3 on page 11 shows the boundary of the area with the “blue” line as the approximate location where the precast drain is to be installed. The exact location will be marked by the government representative onsite with high visibility paint. The larger area with a “red” perimeter (1,150 square feet) that adjoins the parking will require asphalt milling and paving sloped to transition drainage to the drain, as will the smaller area with a “red” perimeter (250 square feet). The gravel outflow parking lot directly to the east of the area of Option 2 has an exit lane that ties into the north portion of Option 2. The contractor shall direct traffic to utilize the overflow lot and its exit lane for all work performed during Option 2 that is south of where the exit lane ties in. This will allow for continual traffic flow for the drain installation which will require concrete placement, formwork, and time to properly cure. The area of Option 2 in Figure 3 with a “yellow” perimeter will only entail milling of 1.5” of existing asphalt, asphalt leveling to any spots and shoulders within the area requiring leveling and paving with a new 1.5” surface course of asphalt. For the duration of the work to be performed in the northern portion of the exist lane the contractor shall direct traffic back through the entry lane just to the west with placement of divider markers in the center of the entry lane.

The contractor shall install the precast grated drain system and associated concrete prior to performing any of the other pavement work entailed in Option 2. The overflow parking lot and exit roadway shall be utilized during all associated drain work and the contractor shall convey traffic via signage and barricades to the route.

The contractor shall install a 24’ long precast drain across the exit lane at the location specified by the government official onsite. The location will also be marked across the roadway with a line of high visibility paint. The precast drain shall have built in slope to allow water to drain readily from left to right (west to east). The drain shall be 4” wide at the bottom throughout its entire length and be capped at the west end with an outlet on the east end that will connect to a 4”diameter PVC drain pipe, that will daylight out to the existing ditch on the eastern side of the exit lane. The precast drain system and grating shall have a “D” load rating (90,000 pounds). The drain shall have tamper resistant iron grating across the entire top of the 24’ long drain.

The contractor shall saw cut and excavate a trench across the exit lane of the parking lot at the location marked by the government representative onsite. The trench must be at a depth to allow for a minimum of 6” of concrete to be under the entire channel system. The contractor shall form the trench at a width no less than 20” and no greater than 24” in width and the drain system shall 10 be situated in the center of the formed trench. The system shall be installed so that the outlet is on the east side of the exit lane where it will discharge into an existing ditch downgrade and an end cap shall be installed at the west side/start of the drain system. There is no inlet on the system as water will enter through the grating from both the south and north side of the exit lane.

The contractor shall perform milling, grading, and paving measures to ensure water from both the south and the north will flow readily to the drain. The final grade of the cover on the drain system shall be 1” lower than the existing surface elevation of the preconstruction pavement to allow for grading and paving measures to align on each side of the drain and allow water to flow to the drain after the final course of pavement.

Upon completion of the installation of the drain system the contractor shall place and compact crushed aggregate (free of particles less than 1 1/2”/40 mm) in lifts no greater than 4” in the voids on each side of the trench and allow for 4” of base course asphalt and 1.5” of wearing course asphalt atop the compacted crushed aggregate to be at grade with each side of the concrete form. Compaction must be completed to a level of 90% of standard proctor on all the aggregate backfill material. The contractor shall not move any vehicles or equipment across the drain once installed as paving operations can be completed from each side of the drain.

Within the larger area with a “red” perimeter (1,150 square feet) shown in Figure 3 on the following page the contractor shall mill/excavate the existing asphalt to a depth of approximately 4” on the southern extent of the area and gradually extend milling/excavation to approximately 6” to the interface of the concrete drain form. Contractor shall apply asphalt bonding agent equally to the entire area and place leveling asphalt in any required spots within the area. The contractor shall follow with the placement of 2.5” of base course asphalt and 1.5” of wearing course asphalt throughout the entire area.

Within the smaller area with a “red” perimeter (250 square feet) the contractor shall mill/excavate starting at 4” at the northern boundary and extending to 6” at the interface of the concrete drain form. Contractor shall apply asphalt bonding agent equally to the entire area and place leveling asphalt in any required spots within the area. The contractor shall follow with the placement of 2.5” of base course asphalt and 1.5” of wearing course asphalt throughout the entire area.

For the remainder of the area of Option 2 within the “yellow” perimeter (2,200 square feet) in Figure 3 the contractor shall mill 1.5” of the existing asphalt within the area. Contractor shall apply bonding agent equally to the area and place leveling asphalt in any required spots within the area. Contractor shall follow with the placement of 1.5” of wearing course asphalt. No striping is required within any of the sections within Option 2. For the milling, leveling, and paving work to be completed in the portion of Option 2 that is north/beyond the tie in lane from the gravel overflow parking lot to the east the contractor shall install a cone/barricade divider line in the center of the entrance lane to the Upstream Recreation parking lot and provide traffic control signage and control throughout this portion of work to be completed in Option 2. The one-way entrance lane is wide enough to allow for opposing traffic, but signage, markers, and control must be maintained throughout.

Reference photos of the existing Option 2 section can be found in Appendix C.

Option 3: The contractor shall be responsible for having the entire area within Option 3 surveyed for any underground utilities to allow them to be avoided or addressed appropriately and ensure safety to workers. The contractor shall utilize West Virginia 811 to survey for any underground utilities.

The general description of work to be performed under Option 3 will require the contractor to furnish all equipment, materials, labor, supplies, and supervision necessary to accomplish asphalt milling, leveling, required repairs, and paving for Option 3. Figure 4 on the following page shows the boundary of Option 3 outlined in yellow.

Contractor shall install and maintain traffic control, saw cut perpendicular across the full width of the dam access roadway at the start and end of the section specified by the Government official on site. The limits will be marked with high visibility paint as well. The entire section of Option 3 is approximately 450 square feet. Figure 4 on the following page shows the extent of Option 3. Contractor shall mill the entire extent of Option 3 to a depth of approximately 4”.

Contractor shall apply asphalt bonding agent equally to the entire area and follow with the placement of 2.5” of base asphalt. Next, the contractor shall place 1.5” of wearing course asphalt to the entire area. No striping is required for this section. The Contractor shall install the new pavement in a manner that creates a smooth transition at the juncture of the two roadways and slightly sloped to allow water to drain readily to the east and prevent it from laying at the interface of the dam access roadway and Beech Fork Road to prevent future pavement damages.

The contractor shall maintain traffic control and signage throughout the entire duration of Option 3 and in accordance with the safety plan. Additionally, for Option 3, the Contractor shall maintain one lane of traffic on Beech Fork Road throughout the performance of Option 3. Work shall be done in accordance with all current State & Federal Road Construction Specification, Rules & Regulations.

The contractor shall dispose of the asphalt millings nearby onsite on lands owned by the Corps at the same location discussed in the base contract and shown in Figure 2 above. The contractor shall be responsible for the proper disposal offsite of all other excess materials not listed above generated during performance of Option 3.
