65. ONE WEEK PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF WORK ON THE THIN OVERLAY WORK, FIELD TESTING SHALL BE

REQUIRED AT AN AS YET TO BE DETERMINED LOCATION. THE INTENT OF THE TESTING SHALL BE TO DETERMINE

SEVERAL FACTORS.

THE FIRST FACTOR IS THE ABILITY TO OVERLAY PREVIOUSLY CRACK SEALED PAVEMENTS WITHOUT THE NEED TO MILL

THE EXISTING PAVEMENT TO REMOVE THE SEALANT.

CONTRACT NUMBER- T202606501 CENTRAL MAINTENANCE (CED) PAGE 14 OF 20

THEREFORE, A 250 TON +/- TEST STRIP FOR ITEM 401054 SHALL BE APPLIED AT THE LOCATION TO BE DESIGNATED BY

THE DEPARTMENT. THE ACTUAL THIN BITUMINOUS MATERIAL PLACED SHALL BE PAID UNDER THE UNIT PRICE BID FOR

ITEM 401054. MAINTENANCE OF TRAFFIC NECESSARY TO PERFORM THE WORK AT THIS LOCATION SHALL BE PAID AT

THE UNIT PRICE BID FOR ITEM 801500.

PRIOR TO PLACEMENT OF THE 250 TON +/- TEST STRIP, THE APPROVED TACK TRUCK SHALL BE TESTED TO CONFIRM
