3. UTILITY SERVICES: Contractor shall notify Contracting Officer for approval prior to removal or disconnecting of government-owned utilities.

4. PROTECTION OF EXISTING WORK: All existing building surfaces, utilities, equipment, and fixtures shall be protected by the contractor from damaged during work under this contract, and any damage to such items due to work under this contract shall be promptly repaired by the contractor at his own expense. Any taxiway lighting damaged by construction shall be repaired by the contractor at his expense.

5. DESCRIPTION OF WORK: a. Work specified shall consist of removing existing asphaltic concrete pavement by cold milling. Contour (header) cuts shall be required. The resulting asphalt aggregate shall become the property of the contractor and shall be removed from Government property and legally disposed of by the end of the project delivery order.

(1) Traffic Maintenance. The contractor shall maintain at least one lane of traffic in each direction;

however, from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. local time, the contractor may be allowed to restrict traffic to one-way operations for short periods of time, provided adequate means of traffic control are effected, traffic is not unreasonably delayed and subject to Contracting Officer approval. The contractor shall be required to provide all flagmen, traffic cones, barricades, warning lights, signs, etc., necessary to provide for the safe and efficient flow of traffic. Also, the contractor shall submit a traffic plan for each delivery order at least 10 days in advance for review and approval by the Contracting Officer. Work shall not begin until this traffic plan has been approved.

The traffic plan shall include expected traffic flow and placement of flagmen, signs, cones, barricades, etc. All flagmen and traffic control personnel shall be required to have on their person a two-way radio or other communication device that gives them instant access to every member of the traffic control team and the contractor's general superintendent.

(2) Equipment. The equipment for this operation shall be a machine capable of maintaining a depth of cut and cross slope which will achieve the results specified herein. The machine shall be equipped with automatic grade controls which operate by sensing from one or more skids moving along the pavement surface and where required shall produce a skid resistant surface texture.

The machine shall be equipped with a means to effectively limit the amount of dust escaping from the removal operation. If the machine is equipped with preheating devices, special attention is directed to the fact that local environmental and other regulations governing operation of this type equipment may vary considerably from place to place. It shall be the contractor's responsibility to familiarize himself and comply with all such local regulations, as well as State and Federal rules, and to obtain all necessary permits.

(3) Construction. Where indicated on the drawings, removal shall be to a specified depth and shall produce a specified cross slope. The longitudinal profile of the milled surface shall be established by a skid sensor on the side of the cut nearest the centerline of the taxiway, street, road or parking lot. The cross slope of the milled surface shall be established by a second skid sensing device near the outside edge of the cut or by an automatic cross slope control mechanism. The contractor may elect to make multiple cuts to achieve the required configuration or depth of cut. The milling machine shall be operated to effectively minimize the amount of dust being emitted from the machine.

Prewetting of the pavement may be required.

02050-1

(4) Finished Surface. The finished base shall have a reasonably uniform texture and shall be within 1/4" of a true profile grade and shall have no deviation in excess of 1/4" from a 15' straightedge applied to the pavement perpendicular to the centerline. The contractor shall be required to have one 15' straightedge at the job site during all operations. Areas varying from a true surface in excess of the above stated tolerances may be accepted without correction if the Contracting Officer determines that they were caused by conditions over which the contractor could not have reasonably exercised control. Any unsuitable texture or profile, as determined by the Contracting Officer, shall be corrected by the contractor at no additional cost to the government.

(5) Milling Machine Travel Speed. The milling machine shall not mill at a rate faster than 20 feet per minute (FPM).
