1.1 SUMMARY OF WORK

This summary of work is a generalized description of work to be performed under this contract; specific descriptions of the work to be performed are contained in more detail in the body of the contract.

The project is located in Teton County, Wyoming, near the town of Jackson.

The project consists of 29 levees, 48 levee access roads, 4 small riprap stockpile sites, and the major stockpile site adjacent to the Walton levee. This work is to replenish the stockpile of levee fill material to support flood fight and annual maintenance efforts for the Jackson Hole Project for up to a five year period. This project will supply fill material to the major stockpile site and to remote sites as required to support ongoing levee work. In the event the Government directs fill material to be delivered directly to work sites on the levees, the Contractor will be reimbursed a surcharge based on additional haul mileage. Fill material deliveries will typically commence 15 August, and be complete by 15 November of any contract year, due to the onset of winter.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 DELIVERY AND STOCKPILING

3.1.1 Delivery

The Contractor is responsible for delivery of all fill material. After the Contractor has begun delivery of fill material, they shall continue delivery, without interruption, until the total specified quantity has been delivered. The Contractor's scheduled days off will not be considered an interruption in the delivery. If the material being delivered to the delivery site does not meet specified requirements, delivery will be refused and the material shall be removed at the Contractors expense.

3.1.1.1 Stockpiling Fill Material

When delivering fill material to remote locations, the Contractor shall ensure dumped material does not damage the levee surface or obstruct levee traffic. If levee width or slopes inhibit the Contractor's actions to dump on the slopes of the levee, the Contractor shall use a loader or other wheeled equipment to push material off crest to maintain traffic flow.

3.1.2 Location

All fill material to be stockpiled, shall be delivered to a designated area of the main stockpile site. The main stockpile site will be located approximately five (5) miles northwest of the city of Jackson, Teton County, Wyoming, in the NE 1/4 of Section 24, Township 41 North, Range 117 West, Latitude 43.5075, Longitude -110.8309. Access to the main stockpile site is via the Walton Levee immediately North and East of Snake River Bridge on Highway 22.

The actual stockpile location and limits of the stockpile area will be staked and/or flagged in the field by the Government Representative prior to delivery of fill materials, with an approximate area of 0.6 Acres.

The entrance to the access road for the main stockpile site is on the North side of Highway 22 and is immediately east of Highway 22 bridge.

3.1.3 Piling of Materials

Locate the stockpile to occupy as small an area as practical leaving adequate working room for removing the materials later. The stockpile sites only have a minimum amount of room for stockpiling material so the Contractor shall move the material accordingly to get the maximum amount of material in the defined stockpile location. The final height of the stockpile shall not exceed 30 feet, nor have side slopes steeper than 1H:1V, unless directed. Any method of stockpiling that would cause segregation or degradation of material will not be permitted. Unless otherwise allowed, place the material in horizontal layers not more than 4 feet in thickness. Each layer shall be completed over the entire area of the pile before depositing material in the succeeding layer. The material shall not be dumped so that any part of it runs down and over the lower layers in the stockpile. When stockpiling, the Contractor shall maintain as constant and regular a cross section as possible to facilitate surveying for quantities if necessary.
