About this file
This document is an attachment for a state and local contract opportunity issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) for the Elk State Forest (FD13) project. The contract requires the delivery, paver-placement, and compaction of approximately 4,509 tons of limestone Driving Surface Aggregate (DSA) to the East Cowley Run Road. The document outlines the technical specifications for the DSA product, including sieve analysis, pH, LA Abrasion, Plasticity Index, and optimum moisture content requirements. Contractors or quarries must acknowledge and confirm their ability to supply the DSA that meets these specifications by completing and signing the appropriate acknowledgement form.
The related state and local contract opportunity is for the F.D. #13 DSA East Cowley Road project, located in Potter County, Pennsylvania. An addendum has been issued to provide additional information regarding the infrequent turnarounds and pull-offs along the narrow project route and how it will affect the required productivity rate of deliveries.

CONTRACTOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF DSA PRODUCT
Solicitation # 6100060672 FD13 - Elk East Cowley Run Road Approximate Tonnage – 4509 (Tonnage is estimated and can increase or decrease based on the needs of the Department.)
By signing this acknowledgement I, _______________________________________ (Print Name), an authorized representative of ____________________________________________ (Name of Contractor), confirms that ___________________________________________ (Name of Contractor) has the ability to competently create and supply certified Driving Surface Aggregate (DSA) for the Solicitation listed above that meets the following specifications.

The fines passing the #200 sieve must be rock material. No clay or silt soil may be added. Limestone material passing the #200 sieve may be used to make up a deficit in the distribution of sandstone aggregate rock, and vice versa. All added material passing the #200 sieve must be derived from rock material that conforms to program specifications. The amount of particles passing the #200 sieve will be determined using the washing procedures specified in PTM No. 100.
*If the Plasticity Index for the Material is 2 or below, then the #200 sieve is permitted to be 11-17%.
pH: 6 – 12.45 as measured by EPA 9045C LA Abrasion: < 45% loss based on Los Angeles Abrasion test, AASHTO T-96 [ASTM C 131] Plasticity Index: ≤ 4 based on ASTM D4318 – Standard Test Method for Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, and Plasticity Index of Soils.
Optimum Moisture: Material will be delivered and placed at optimum moisture content, or up to 2% below that value, as determined for that particular source. The optimum percentage moisture will be determined using Proctor Test ASTM D698, procedure C, Standard.
