3.0 MATERIAL TESTS

3.1 MATERIAL QUALITY TESTING:

3.1.1 Prior to the delivery of the material, the Contractor shall submit, to the USACE Technical Point of Contact for approval, an analysis, from a State Highway Department approved independent laboratory, of the proposed material to be supplied.

3.1.2 The Contractor shall supply test results to the USACE Technical Point of Contact. The results of the analysis shall be approved by the Technical Point of Contract prior to the notice to proceed being issued.

3.1.3 At any time during the period of this contract, the USACE Technical Point of Contact may require the Contractor to perform, at his/her own expense, quality testing of the materials furnished or proposed to be furnished with samples to be taken either at the delivery point or at the pit (as deemed necessary by the USACE Technical Point of Contact). This quality testing will include that for gradation, sieve analyses, liquid limits and plasticity index. All samples will be taken by the Contractor in the presence of a Government representative. The number and frequency of these samplings and tests will be determined by the Government representative.

3.1.4 Also, the laboratory facilities used for such testing shall be subject to inspection and/or approval by the Government representative and the Government reserves the right to be present during the performance of directed testing. From the date of receipt of notification of any requirement for such testing, the Contractor shall accomplish the testing within five (5) working days and provide the test results to the Government representative within seven

(7) working days.

3.2 TESTS:

3.2.1 General

The Contractor shall perform gradation tests to assure compliance with contract requirements and shall maintain detailed records.

3.2.2 Reporting

Reporting shall be in accordance with paragraph GRADATION TEST.

3.2.3 Standard Test Method for Gradation of Riprap and Graded Stone

a. Select a representative sample (See Note No. 1), weigh and dump on hard stand.

b. Select specific sizes (see example) on which to run "individual weight larger than" test. (See Note No. 2).

Procedure is similar to the standard aggregate gradation test for "individual weight retained".

c. Determine the largest size stone in the sample. (100 percent size)

d. Separate by "size larger than" the selected weights, starting with the larger sizes. Use reference stones, with identified weights, for visual comparison in separating the obviously "larger than" stones. Stones that appear close to the specific weight must be individually weighed to determine size grouping. Weigh each size group, either individually or cumulatively.

e. Paragraph d above will result in "individual weight retained" figures. Calculate individual percent retained (heavier than) cumulative percent retained and cumulative percent passing (lighter than). Plot percent passing, along with the specification curve on ENG Form 4794-R.

NOTE NO. 1: Sample Selection: The most important part of the test and the least precise is the selection of a representative sample. No "standard" can be devised; larger quarry run stone is best sampled at the shot or stockpile by given direction to the loader; small graded stone is best sampled by random selection from the transporting vehicles. If possible, all parties should take part in the sample selection, and agree before the sample is run, that the sample is representative.

NOTE NO. 2: Selection of Size for Separation: It is quite possible and accurate to run a gradation using any convenient sizes for the separation, without reference to the specifications. After the test is plotted on a curve, then the gradation limits may be plotted. Overlapping gradations with this method are no problem. It is usually more convenient, however, to select points from the gradation limits, such as the minimum 50 percent size, the minimum 15 percent size, and one or two others, as separation points.

3.2.4 Gradation Test

The Contractor shall perform a gradation test or tests on the riprap at the quarry in accordance with “STANDARD TEST METHOD FOR GRADATION OF RIPRAP AND GRADED STONE”. The sample shall be taken by the Contractor in the presence of the Government Representative. The Contractor shall notify the Government representative not less than 3 days in advance of each test. In the event of unavailability of a Government representative; the Contractor shall perform the tests and certify to the Government representative that the riprap shipped complies with the specifications. At least one gradation test shall be performed per each 50,000 tons of each size of riprap. The gradation tests shall be reported using the forms, GRADATION TEST DATA SHEET and ENG FORM 4794-R. The Contractor shall designate on the test form that portion in tons of the lot tested which is applicable to this contract. Any deviation from the reported tonnage shall be corrected and recorded on a revised GRADATION TEST DATA SHEET. The sample shall consist of not less than 25 tons of each size of riprap required, and shall be collected in a random manner which will provide a sample which accurately reflects the actual gradation arriving at the worksite. Failure of the test on the initial sample and on an additional sample will be considered cause for rejection of the quarry and/or quarry process, and all riprap represented by the failed tests shall be set aside and not incorporated into the work. Any additional tests required because of the failure of an initial test sample will not be considered as one of the other required tests. If collected by the truckload, each truckload shall be representative of the gradation requirements. The Government Representative may direct additional testing of the riprap at the project site if the riprap appears by visual inspection, to be out of gradation. The Contractor shall provide all necessary screens, scales and other equipment, the operating personnel, and shall grade the sample.

Certification and test results shall represent riprap shipped from the quarry. Certification and tests results must be received by the Government representative at the worksite before the riprap is accepted.

The Quality Control POC shall: be onsite at the delivery location for each day of scheduled deliveries, communicate daily delivery information with the on-site Government Quality Assurance POC, be the primary POC for the USACE Technical POC assigned to the project, responsible for delivery load ticket management, and ensure deliveries are compliant with the contract specifications.

The government reserves the right to decrease or increase the final quantities of each delivery order depending on unit prices and available funding.

LEVEE SURFACING MATERIAL:

The material shall meet the contract gradation requirements for the levee surfacing material, refer to the section titled 610 Limestone Specifications located in section C of this solicitation. The contractor shall provide a certified gradation sheet for the material to be delivered prior to beginning delivery. The material shall not include excess or free water.

DELIVERY:

The contractor will not be allowed to deliver material until the local sponsor has determined the delivery location is suitable. USACE will have personnel & equipment on-site. USACE will manage and maintain material as it is delivered/dumped. The contractor may be limited to one-way traffic on levees during truck loading and unloading operations. Close coordination, careful pre-planning, and continuous communication between the contractor and the local sponsor must be maintained. The contractor may work 12 hours per day, 7 days per week, and on weekends to deliver the stone provided the local sponsor is able to support the contractor’s delivery schedule.

The contractor shall implement measures to promote safe working conditions; the contractor shall adhere to EM385-1-1 Corps Safety Manual, and traffic control plan requirements. The contractor shall deliver between 1,000 and 2,000 tons of stone per day.

The contractor shall quote a delivery schedule as a number of days after the NTP (notice to proceed) is issued. Deliveries must begin within 10 calendar days of the notice to proceed being issued. Deliveries are not required on Saturdays, Sundays, or federal holidays unless authorized by the Government and agreed upon between the contractor and Government. Upon approval of all post award submittals, the contractor will have two business days to confirm/coordinate the delivery dates with the USACE Technical POC. The notice to proceed will not be issued until the delivery dates have been confirmed/coordinated with the Government Technical POC. The contractor shall submit to the USACE Technical POC an updated schedule every 2 weeks or as needed.

When weather or other conditions affect the delivery schedule the contractor shall update the delivery schedule immediately (daily if necessary) to account for impacts to the initial schedule.

Any changes to the original completion date must be justified by impacts that cannot be controlled by the contractor.

GENERAL:

The inspection and acceptance procedures specified herein set forth a general policy that only the supplies meeting the requirements of this contract will be accepted. Neither the presence nor the absence of Government inspection shall relieve the Contractor from any contract requirements.

PIT VISIT:

Prior to the issuance of Notice-To-Proceed, the Government may elect to visit the proposed source (pits) to inspect the materials. Accordingly, the Contractor shall furnish to the Government representative the location(s) of the pit or pits where the materials will be obtained.

The Contractor shall insure that the Government has access to these pits for such inspections. If the Government elects to inspect a pit, the Contractor will be advised, and visit arrangements will be mutually compatible between the Government and the Contractor. Determinations made by the Government related to such visits shall not relieve the Contractor from any contract requirements.

MEASUREMENT:

Measurement of materials for payment shall be in tons by industry standards to include either barge measurement or certified scale/weight measurement. Each truck load shall be weighed to the nearest 0.01 ton and the final quantity rounded to the nearest 0.1 ton. The method of measurement for payment of materials, barge measurement versus scale weight measurement shall be established and discussed with the USACE Technical POC prior to beginning delivery at each location. If the materials are unloaded from barges at a port (Greenville, Vicksburg, Natchez, St. Joseph, etc.), barge measurements will not be accepted and a certified scale system shall be used to weigh each truck load of material and account for each truck load of stone hauled to the delivery site; if the certified scale system is not used, then barge measurements will not be accepted. If barges are offloaded within 10 miles of the delivery site location, not at a port, then barge measurement may be used if an accounting system is used that will account for each truck load of material loaded at the barge site and unloaded at the delivery site/levee. For example, an accounting system shall include a paper ticket for every truck load of material loaded at the barge site with a paper copy provided to the government representative at the delivery site, verifying delivery. The use of barge measurements for deliveries in excess of 10 miles from the point of unloading will require the approval of the USACE Technical POC. All barge measurements shall be made by the contractor in the presence of a government representative. Any free or excess water in the barges shall be pumped out before the initial barge measurements. The initial barge measurements shall be made before moving any material from the barges. Material that is loaded out, hauled to the delivery location, and found to contain excessive moisture, or, free water will be rejected.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION:

It is the contractor's responsibility to determine their tax exemption status on projects. The Government will provide a Tax Exemption Certificate to the awardee.

County road bonds are not required for this project. The contractor is responsible for complying with public roadway laws/regulations

DELIVERY/HAULING VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION:

To facilitate identification and logging of delivery vehicles, the Contractor shall insure that each vehicle to be used in executing deliveries has an individual identification number or license plate number; or, where trailers are to be used, individual identification numbers or license plate numbers for each trailer. If license plate numbers are used, the Contractor shall keep all license plates clean and otherwise legible. Vehicles with dirty or illegible license plates or identification numbers will not be allowed to dump until these plates or ID numbers are made legible by the Contractor. All ID numbers shall be on the sides of the delivery vehicles. Any other vehicle or trailer identification system used by the Contractor shall provide for uniform, plainly visible, and permanent numbering affixed to the vehicle or trailer. Such numbering shall make each vehicle and trailer individual with respect to delivery activities under this contract, i.e., each truck or trailer shall have its own number.

DELIVERY TICKETS:

The Contractor shall provide serialized delivery tickets with each load delivered. These tickets shall be in duplicate and contain a carbon sheet or an equivalent method of transferring notations thereon from one ticket to its copy. At a minimum, the following information shall be shown on each ticket:

Contractor's Name Delivery Vehicle ID Number Ticket Serial Number Date of Delivery Contract Number Location of Delivery Delivery Order Number Quantity Loaded on Truck

In addition to this information, the ticket shall have sufficient space for the Government inspector to indicate thereon the amount measured as delivered, the time of delivery, and his/her signature. Subsequent to delivery and measurement, the Contractor shall provide the delivery ticket to the Government inspector for this notation and signature, whereupon the inspector will keep the original and give the copy back to the Contractor. The Government inspector will not sign a delivery ticket where the material does not meet the requirements of this purchase order or under circumstances where other conditions of this purchase order were violated. Also, signatures on a delivery ticket by anyone other than the authorized Government inspector will not be accepted for payment purposes.

UNSATISFACTORY MATERIAL:

Any material furnished to a delivery point that is found not to be in compliance with these specifications shall be promptly removed by the Contractor at his/her own expense. The fact that material may have been dumped before it was found unsatisfactory shall have no bearing on the Contractor's responsibility for removal under these circumstances.

SAFETY:

The Contractor shall strictly comply with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1, this manual, and all subsequent revisions of the manual, as it applies to the activities under this contract.

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.246-2 INSPECTION OF SUPPLIES--FIXED-PRICE (AUG 1996)

(a) Definition. "Supplies," as used in this clause, includes but is not limited to raw materials, components, intermediate assemblies, end products, and lots of supplies.

(b) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering supplies under this contract and shall tender to the Government for acceptance only supplies that have been inspected in accordance with the inspection system and have been found by the Contractor to be in conformity with contract requirements. As part of the system, the Contractor shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under the system and the outcome. These records shall be kept complete and made available to the Government during contract performance and for as long afterwards as the contract requires. The Government may perform reviews and evaluations as reasonably necessary to ascertain compliance with this paragraph. These reviews and evaluations shall be conducted in a manner that will not unduly delay the contract work. The right of review, whether exercised or not, does not relieve the Contractor of the obligations under the contract.

(c) The Government has the right to inspect and test all supplies called for by the contract, to the extent practicable, at all places and times, including the period of manufacture, and in any event before acceptance. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work. The Government assumes no contractual obligation to perform any inspection and test for the benefit of the Contractor unless specifically set forth elsewhere in this contract.

(d) If the Government performs inspection or test on the premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall furnish, and shall require subcontractors to furnish, at no increase in contract price, all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and convenient performance of these duties. Except as otherwise provided in the contract, the Government shall bear the expense of Government inspections or tests made at other than the Contractor's or subcontractor's premises; provided, that in case of rejection, the Government shall not be liable for any reduction in the value of inspection or test samples.

(e)(1) When supplies are not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, the Contracting Officer may charge to the Contractor the additional cost of inspection or test.

(2) The Contracting Officer may also charge the Contractor for any additional cost of inspection or test when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary.

(f) The Government has the right either to reject or to require correction of nonconforming supplies. Supplies are nonconforming when they are defective in material or workmanship or are otherwise not in conformity with contract requirements. The Government may reject nonconforming supplies with or without disposition instructions.

(g) The Contractor shall remove supplies rejected or required to be corrected. However, the Contracting Officer may require or permit correction in place,promptly after notice, by and at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall not tender for acceptance corrected or rejected supplies without disclosing the former rejection or requirement for correction, and, when required, shall disclose the corrective action taken.

(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either (1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and charge the cost to the Contractor or (2) terminate the contract for default. Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the supplies within the delivery schedule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and make an equitable price reduction. Failure to agree to a price reduction shall be a dispute.

(i)(1) If this contract provides for the performance of Government quality assurance at source, and if requested by the Government, the Contractor shall furnish advance notification of the time (i) when Contractor inspection or tests will be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract and (ii) when the supplies will be ready for Government inspection.

(2) The Government's request shall specify the period and method of the advance notification and the Government representative to whom it shall be furnished. Requests shall not require more than 2 workdays of advance notification if the Government representative is in residence in the Contractor's plant, nor more than 7 workdays in other instances.

(j) The Government shall accept or reject supplies as promptly as practicable after delivery, unless otherwise provided in the contract. Government failure to inspect and accept or reject the supplies shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility, nor impose liability on the Government, for nonconforming supplies.

(k) Inspections and tests by the Government do not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for defects or other failures to meet contract requirements discovered before acceptance. Acceptance shall be conclusive, except for latent defects, fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or as otherwise provided in the contract.

(l) If acceptance is not conclusive for any of the reasons in paragraph (k) hereof, the Government, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law, or under other provisions of this contract, shall have the right to require the Contractor (1) at no increase in contract price, to correct or replace the defective or nonconforming supplies at the original point of delivery or at the Contractor's plant at the Contracting Officer's election, and in accordance with a reasonable delivery schedule as may be agreed upon between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer;

provided, that the Contracting Officer may require a reduction in contract price if the Contractor fails to meet such delivery schedule, or (2) within a reasonable time after receipt by the Contractor of notice of defects or nonconformance, to repay such portion of the contract as is equitable under the circumstances if the Contracting Officer elects not to require correction or replacement. When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation cost from the original point of delivery to the Contractor's plant and return to the original point when that point is not the Contractor's plant. If the Contractor fails to perform or act as required in (1) or (2) above and does not cure such failure within a period of 10 days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure, the Government shall have the right by contract or otherwise to replace or correct such supplies and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned the Government thereby.
