R5 FERM BPA

Pay Item & Spec description assumptions

For the purposes of evaluating quotes for R5 FERM solicitation; the following assumptions will be made for each specific pay item. Vendors shall not include mobilization in any of the line items. Vendors should assume they are onsite and price commercial rates accordingly. Mobilization will be included in future call orders for real work. In addition, the pricing will not be subject to future call orders as current market condition will change, however, the Government reserves the right to review pricing and verify for work similar in nature and scope.

811 BLADING (5/97)

This work consists of surface blading an aggregate roadbed to a condition to facilitate traffic and provide proper drainage. Roads shall be bladed and shaped to produce a surface which is uniform, consistent to grade, and crowned or cross-sloped as indicated by the character of the existing surface.

Compaction will be accomplished by working equipment and service trucks breaking track over the width of road (Compaction A). Water truck is not ordered.

832 REMOVE AND END HAUL MATERIALS (5/97)

Work consists of ordered loading, hauling, and placing of slide, slough, or excess materials such as rock, soil, vegetation, and other materials to designated disposal sites.

834 DRAINAGE STRUCTURE MAINTENANCE (5/97)

This work consists of cleaning culverts (24” and under) inlets, catch basins and outlet channels. The transition from the ditch line to the catch basin shall be cleaned a distance of ten (10) feet. Outlet channels and lead-off ditches shall be cleaned a distance of six (6) feet. Debris and vegetation shall be removed and placed so as to not enter the channel or ditch or obstruct traffic. Cleaning is limited to the first four (4) feet of inlet and outlet determined along the top of the structure.

861 MAINTENANCE OF CATTLEGUARDS (5/97)

This work consists of cleaning and restoring cattleguards and appurtenances. The cattleguard deck shall be removed prior to cleaning and reinstalled upon completion. The area beneath the cattleguard deck shall be cleaned of dirt and other materials to the full depth of the foundation over the entire width of the installation. Where there are existing leadoff or drainage ditches, cleaning shall include removing material from the ditch to provide for water flow through the installation. Assume 6” of welding is required.

836 ROAD OBLITERATION (5/97)

This work shall consist of closing designated roads to use by vehicles over 42 inches wide. Earth barricades shall be constructed in locations specified in accordance with the attached Drawings.

842 CUTTING ROADWAY VEGETATION (5/97)

This work consists of cutting all vegetative growth within 4’ of shoulder (assume no ditch) including trees and other vegetation less than four (4) inches in diameter. Limbs and chunks in excess of three (3) inches in any dimension shall be removed from the traveled way and shoulders. Assume consistent vegetation entire length of project.

854 HAZARD REMOVAL AND CLEANUP (5/97)

This work consists of removing and disposing of marked hazards such as danger trees.

Removal of trees shall include the felling and subsequent treatment of danger trees designated by the Government. Trees and snags felled away from and at right angles to the road centerline and resting entirely beyond the roadside limits of five (5) feet beyond roadway slopes shall be limbed to provide ground contact over two-thirds (2/3) or more of its length.

When the ground contact condition cannot be met, additional bucking will be done to achieve the two-thirds (2/3) contact control. Trees and snags falling cross slope shall be limbed and bucked into manageable lengths, and re-oriented at right angles to the road centerline. Woody debris and slash in excess of one (1) foot in length or three (3) inches in diameter shall not remain in ditches, drainage channels, or on back slopes, traveled way, shoulders or turnouts.

Note: The following items will be constructed or installed per FP-14 and Forest Service Supplemental Specifications (FSSS)

Construct Drain Dip

This work consists of constructing a new dip by excavating existing roadbed to elevations specified on detail and using that material to shape and meet profile as shown. See rolling dip typical. Shape to drain.

Install Cattleguard

Install new 14’ steel cattleguard in native surfaced road. Cattleguard will be furnished by the Government (GFM).

Install CMP

Install new 24” CMP (GFM). Assume minimum cover of 18” is all that is needed.

Pothole Patching

Patching shall be accomplished with hot mix (GFM). Assume all material will be used on same road and within same general vicinity to maintain temperature control.

Install Steel Gate

Install new 14’ steel gate (GFM). Assume all other materials i.e., concrete, rebar, signs etc.

are GFM. We are looking for installation costs only for bidding purposes.

Install Corrugated Metal Spillway

Install new corrugated metal spillway (GFM)

Stockpiled Aggregate

Assume 10,000 cubic yards requested, source is at the site, no mobilization, grade D (FP-14), no site development, material is shot and ready to crush, site for equipment is already developed.
