About this file
This is a standard specifications document issued by Greenville County Public Works for Section 02110: Site Clearing, applicable to the Suffolk Drive Drainage Improvements project in Greenville, South Carolina. The specifications outline the scope of work required for clearing and grubbing operations, including the removal and disposal of trees, brush, debris, stumps, roots, and other objectionable organic material within designated grading areas. The work encompasses cutting and removal of all trees and brush, with grubbing operations requiring removal of stumps entirely and extraction of roots and matted roots to a minimum depth of 18 inches below the existing ground surface. All cleared and grubbed materials must be removed from the site and disposed of off-site. The specifications require that designated trees to be retained must be carefully protected during grading operations, with any damaged or destroyed trees to be replaced at fair market value as determined by the County Engineer at the Contractor's expense. Certification of clearing and grubbing operations by the County Engineer is required prior to rough grading, filling, or as mandated by local government agencies.
The specifications establish standard technical requirements and procedures to be followed by contractors performing site clearing work on County projects. Traffic control requirements for work in public streets, roads, and highways must comply with applicable regulatory authority requirements, including adherence to the South Carolina Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways (1982, latest revision) as a minimum standard for State Highway work. The specifications reference related sections of the overall contract documents, including General Provisions and Special Provisions, which apply to all sections of work. No specific pricing, contract term, bonding requirements, or award information is contained within this specifications section, as it serves as a technical standard document rather than a project-specific bid solicitation.
