OREGON STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION. The 2024 Oregon Standard Specifications for Construction (“Standard Specifications”) include detailed specifications in Part 00200 and beyond (“technical specifications”) that apply to this Project. Some sections of the technical specifications may be identified and modified in the Contract Documents. Sections of the technical specifications not identified in the Contract Documents remain applicable to the Contract according to their original terms.

Sections 00120-00199 in Part 00100 of the Standard Specifications are not applicable to the Contract unless they are specifically identified in a Contract Document as being applicable. However, if a section in Part 00100, Section 00120—00199, that has been identified as being applicable references another section in Part 00100, or if a technical specification references a section from Part 00100, that section from Part 00100 applies to the Contract for purposes of supporting and giving full effect to the specification that referenced it. Abbreviations, definitions, and conventions in Part 00100, Section 00110, apply to the ITB and any resulting Contract as required for context within the Contract Document. The Standard Specifications can be accessed online at:

SILENCE OF SPECIFICATIONS. The apparent silence of the specifications as to any detail, or the apparent omission of a detailed description concerning any point, shall be regarded as meaning that only the best commercial practice is to prevail and that only materials and workmanship of first quality are to be used.

LOCATION. The general project location is along I5 in the northbound and southbound directions from mile point 233.20 – 237.66. The ROW fencing is typically found between I5 and Century Dr on the east side of the highway and between I5 and Old Salem Rd on the west side of the highway. Attached to this solicitation is a .KML file that can be uploaded to geospatial software such as Google Earth (phone, desktop, or online versions), ArcGIS, ONX, Backcountry Navigator, etc.. for the contractor’s use in locating the work areas in the field. Note that the specific colors and names of the lines and pins in the .KML might not transfer to your viewing software of choice if not using Google Earth.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK:

The work to be done under this Contract consists of the following:

The contractor is to remove and replace 22,476 linear feet of ROW fence and install 850 linear feet of new ROW fence and install a new single swing gate. See standard drawings RD810 for fencing (Type 2 fence) and RD850 for the gate. Contractor to use metal posts to match existing. Although lane closures are not anticipated, section 00220.40(e)(1) below provides the lane closure hours for Century Dr. and Old Salem Rd., and there is a line item for traffic control on the bid pricing form in case the Offeror thinks traffic control will be necessary.

In the .KML file there is a pinned location for the new 12’ single swing gate. Yellow lines named “NB Section” 1, 2, 5, 6, and “SB Section” 1, 2, and 3 are fence runs to be removed and replaced. Red lines named “NB Section” 3 and 4 are new fence runs to be installed. The exact location of the new fence runs are to be marked in the field by the Resident Project Representative.

It is highly advised that prospective Offerors visit the worksite to become familiar with the working locations, conditions, available workspace, and vegetation to be removed.

The presence of checking on the surface of the post will not be cause for rejection unless the width of the widest check, shake, or split exceeds 1/2 inch (surface measurement).

If an otherwise acceptable treated post has a through check, shake, or end split in the same slope of grain or plane as the bolt hole and extending from the top of the post to within 3 inches of the bolt hole, the post is rejected unless it is provided with a tight fastening across the separation, centered on the post, and 2 inches below the top.

Inspection of treated posts for compliance with the requirements of 02110.10(e) is according to applicable AWPA standards, except as follows:

The Inspector will choose the number of treated posts from any one charge of the treating cylinder for determining penetration of treatment.

Each post selected for testing is representative as a basis of acceptance or rejection of a pro rata number of posts in the charge.

If 20 percent of the posts randomly selected for testing fail to conform to requirements, all of the posts in the entire charge from where they are selected may be classed as unacceptable.

At the Inspector's discretion, each treated post or a representative random selection of treated posts may be inspected for compliance with the requirements of 02110.10(f) "Seasoning and Checking".

Posts that fail to conform to requirements of this Subsection are subject to rejection at the treating plant singly, by partial lots, or by whole lots. (A "lot" comprises the posts in any charge of the treating cylinder.)
