INTRODUCTION Our field work consisted of deflection testing using our falling weight pavement deflection testing device in general accordance with CTM 356, coring to measure the existing pavement thickness, and a visual condition survey. This work was performed by Brett Long, Carlos Cardona, and Justin Custer of PEI’s staff. Visual evaluations were performed by Steven Holm of PEI’s engineering staff. The traffic indexes used in this analysis were provided by the City of San Luis Obispo. We have summarized our analysis on the deflection summary sheets for the street segments following this report. Included on the summary sheets is the coring data for existing pavement thickness, visual condition survey, deflection test results analysis, and rehabilitation recommendations. ANALYSIS The rehabilitation alternatives have been designed using structural requirements from the deflection analysis contained in CTM 356, reflective cracking criteria, and the visual condition survey. Reflection cracking requirements are determined as a minimum of one-half the bonded layer section per current Caltrans recommendations for reflective cracking. Engineering judgment and experience has been used in applying these criteria to the individual street segments. The rehabilitation alternatives evaluated in this analysis include HMA and RHMA overlays, milling and replacement with HMA, and Partial Depth Recycling (PDR). Reconstruction alternatives are also provided including Full Depth Reclamation (FDR), Full Depth HMA, and HMA over aggregate base. Hai Nguyen, PE December 4, 2024 Project No. 240140 Page 2 OVERLAYS The recommended overlays must meet both the structural requirements from the deflection analysis and reflective cracking requirements. The minimum recommended overlay thickness is 1-3/4 inches to ensure that the HMA can be properly compacted. For HMA overlays, typically a HMA leveling course is recommended if pavement fabric is placed. The leveling course provides a uniform surface and fills cracks to ensure the fabric is bonded properly to the overlay. Pavement fabric is not typically recommended unless needed to reduce the overlay thickness required for reflective cracking. PEI recommends placing a leveling course under RHMA overlays. The leveling course helps provide a uniform surface for placing the RHMA to ensure the thickness of the RHMA overlay. Minimum thickness for RHMA overlays is critical for compaction. MILLING AND REPLACEMENT Milling and replacement is generally recommended when overlay requirements for reflective cracking exceed 3-1/2 inches and are structurally adequate by deflection. Overlays which exceed 3-1/2 inches are not usually feasible due to geometric constraints. Mill and replacement alternatives allow for resurfacing the pavement to match the existing profile. This alternative can also reduce the lift thickness to meet reflective cracking requirements if the pavement is structurally adequate. The expected pavement life for milling and replacing is like an overlay. Milling and replacement is a green alternative also, because asphalt suppliers use the removed asphalt in Rap (recycled asphalt pavement) mixes if fabric is not present. PEI does not recommend Milling and Replacement when the pavement is less than 5 inches thick. Construction traffic can cause significant failures in pavements that are milled and leave less than 3 inches. PARTIAL DEPTH RECYCLING (PDR) PDR is an option when pavements are structurally adequate or slightly structurally deficient. It can be especially useful when pavements are thick (greater than 6 inches). PDR helps reduce crack history in thicker pavement and provides a green approach by using existing materials. PDR consists of either an emulsion process or a foaming process. The cold foam process can include mixing aggregate base with asphalt concrete. Hai Nguyen, PE December 4, 2024 Project No. 240140 Page 3 RECONSTRUCTION Reconstruction can consist of various alternatives including Full Depth HMA, HMA over aggregate base, or Full Depth Reclamation (FDR). Full Depth HMA is the fastest for construction but typically has higher costs than other reconstruction alternatives. FDR HMA can be a cost-effective approach but takes much longer to construct than HMA. HMA over aggregate base has a lower cost than Full Depth HMA but has significant impact on the public due to the slower construction process. FDR involves treating the existing base and soil with either cement or lime depending on the makeup of the materials. FDR is a green alternative because it uses existing materials and reduces the amount of imported materials. PROJECT ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OVERVIEW The street segments that were evaluated for this project are as follows: Location 1: x Calle Joaquin – Motel 6 to City Limits x Industrial Way – Broad Street to East End x Sacramento Drive – Via Esteban to Industrial Way Location 2: x Tank Farm Road – South Higuera to East City Limits x Tank Farm Road – West City Limits to Broad Street x Tank Farm Road – Broad Street to Righetti Ranch Road x Tank Farm Road – Righetti Ranch Road to Wavertree Street x Orcutt Road – Spanish Oaks Drive to City Limits Location 3: x Broad Street – Sweeney Lane to Tank Farm Road Location 4: x Foothill Boulevard – California Boulevard to City Limits These roadways are classified as arterials with higher design traffic indexes (9.5). Most of the R-values tested were less than 20. The recommendations for each section vary based on existing structural section thicknesses and structural requirements by deflection analysis. Hai Nguyen, PE December 4, 2024 Project No. 240140 Page 4 PEI evaluated multiple alternatives for rehabilitating the pavements. The estimated design life of each recommended alternative is provided in the following table: Proposed Treatment Expected Service Life HMA and RHMA Overlays 7-12 years Milling and Replacement 7-12 years Partial Depth Recycling (PDR) 7-12 years Full Depth Reclamation (FDR) 15-20 years Full Depth HMA 15-20 years HMA Over Aggregate Base 15-20 years Each alternative should be evaluated by the design engineer for cost, constructability, and impact on the public during construction. The Deflection Summary Sheets following this report provide the coring data, deflection data, and visual condition evaluations used in PEI’s analysis. The recommended repair strategies have been provided for rehabilitation alternatives. Following the summary sheets are the deflection data print outs, R-values and photos. MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION HMA recommended for leveling courses less than 1 inch should be constructed using 3/8-inch maximum HMA or #4 mix. The leveling course should be rolled and compacted with an 8 to 12 ton pneumatic-tire roller. HMA with thicknesses of 1 to 2 inches should be constructed using 1/2-inch maximum HMA. HMA layer thicknesses greater than 2 inches can be constructed with either 1/2 or 3/4-inch maximum HMA. RHMA should be constructed with 3/8 inches maximum aggregate for overlays less than 2 inches and 1/2-inch maximum size aggregate for overlays greater than or equal to 2 inches. All HMA and RHMA work should be placed in accordance with Caltrans 2010 Section 39 using the standard process or Caltrans 2018 Section 39 that is modified for City/County work.

ANALYSIS The existing pavement consists of 3 to 7 inches of asphalt concrete over 9 to 17 inches of aggregate base. PEI could not identify if pavement fabric was present in the asphalt concrete layer. The native soils are brown sandy clays with R-values ranging from 14 to 19. Based on the deflection analysis, the pavement is structurally deficient by 1-3/4 inches of HMA. For this pavement, PEI is providing recommendations for overlaying with HMA and RHMA, full depth reclamation (FDR) and reconstruction with Full Depth HMA or HMA over aggregate base. Milling and replacement and partial depth recycling (PDR) are not recommended because of the thinner existing asphalt concrete layer and structural deficiency. RECOMMENDATIONS Overlay Options HMA We recommend 6-inch pavement repairs of base failures and placing a 2-1/2-inch HMA overlay. RHMA We recommend 6-inch pavement repairs of base failures, placing a 1/2-inch HMA leveling course and a 1-3/4-inch RHMA overlay. The pavement should be evaluated for the base failures present. If the amount of base failure exceeds 10%, then placing overlays may not be cost effective. Milling and Replacement Option Milling and replacement is not recommended because of the thinner existing pavement layer and structural deficiency. Partial Depth Recycling Option (PDR) Partial Depth Recycling (PDR) is not recommended because of structural deficiency. HMA Overlay Requirement (Inches)* Pavement Fabric Required (Yes or No) 1-3/4 Yes Deflection and Structural Summary Project No. 240140 2025 Roadway Paving Project Client: City of San Luis Obispo FDR Option We recommend uniformly pulverizing 16 inches of existing asphalt concrete, aggregate base, and native soil, removing 8 inches of pulverized material, treating the remaining pulverized material and native soil with cement/lime to a depth of 15 inches and placing 8 inches of new HMA in 3 lifts. This recommendation is based on an unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of 300 psi. Reconstruction Options Full Depth HMA We recommend removing to a depth of 13-1/2 inches and placing 13-1/2 inches of HMA in 5 lifts. HMA over Aggregate Base We recommend removing to a depth of 23 inches, installing a SEG fabric, placing 16-1/2 inches of aggregate base and 6-1/2 inches of HMA in 2 lifts. Both reconstruction alternatives could develop unstable grade from construction traffic during the construction process. Stabilization allowances should be included if one of these alternatives is chosen. As previously discussed in the report, rehabilitation alternatives may have different anticipated service lives. The design engineer should evaluate each alternative based on cost, constructability, and impact on the public.

If excavations must be made within the drip line of trees (or extending tree roots) along the right of way, the trenches must be hand dug and the utility routed beneath or around root structure. Major tree roots must not be cut or damaged. Additionally, the exposed roots must be wrapped and kept moist until the excavation is back filled with the native material. Requests for exceptions must be accompanied by an Arborist’s recommendation. Tree Trimming This permit does not authorize the removal of any trees. This permit does not allow for topping of conifer trees. Any tree trimming must be performed in accordance with good horticultural practices and the International Society of Arboriculture. Tree trimming must be coordinated with the Caltrans Permit Inspector and the local Caltrans Tree Maintenance Supervisor. The Permittee or Permittee's contractor must remove all debris from the State right of way, to the satisfaction of the State Inspector. No tree limbs or trunks shall be allowed to fall onto the paved roadway. Cuttings may be safely lowered to the planned work zone encompassing portions of the roadway pavement. Permittee shall be responsible to repair damage caused by debris impacting the roadway pavement as directed by the State Permit Inspector. Archaeological/Cultural Requirements If archaeological resources or human remains are accidentally discovered during construction, work must be halted within 150 feet of the find until a qualified professional archaeologist can evaluate it.

Notification shall be submitted to the State Inspector by 12:00 PM (noon) Monday, prior to the week of the proposed closure or detour. Notifications submitted after the deadline cannot be approved for the upcoming week. All traffic control requiring the temporary closure of lanes or detour of traffic shall be approved in advance by the State Inspector. Ramp Closures 14 to 7 calendar days prior to an approved ramp closure, notice shall be posted at the ramp entrance using the appropriate SC6 sign. In addition, an SC8 or portable changeable message sign shall be posted for the preceding ramp the day of the closure unless otherwise approved by the Caltrans Permit Inspector. Caltrans Lane Closure System (LCS) Compliance Work authorized by this permit may require compliance and proper notification in LCS. If not identified elsewhere in this permit, you or your contractor must provide the contact information for two personnel, who will be ensuring LCS compliance during the pre-job meeting with the Caltrans Permit Inspector. Contact information shall include personnel’s full names, phone numbers and email addresses. You or your Contractor’s LCS contact will be required to properly notify the District Traffic Management Center (TMC) as described below. When a lane closure or lane shift has been identified by the Inspector with a Lane Closure ID # and Log #, you will be required to provide the TMC notification status when you are placing the lane closure, when you remove the lane closure, or when you cancel the lane closure. When providing the status of the lane closure to the TMC you will need to follow these steps, 1. Obtain the Lane Closure ID and Log # assigned for the approved scheduled lane closure event from the Caltrans Permit Inspector a minimum of one weekday prior to the closure day or duration. 2. Call the TMC/Lane Closure Phone Number (805) 549-3837 to provide the Lane Closure ID Status For a stationary closure on a traffic lane, use code: 1. 10-97 immediately before you place the 1st cone on the traffic lane 2. 10-98 immediately after you remove all of the cones from the traffic lane For a stationary closure on the shoulder, use code: 1. 10-97 immediately before you place the 1st cone after the last advance warning sign 2. 10-98 immediately after you remove the last cone before the advance warning signs For a moving closure, use code: 1. 10-97 immediately before the actual start time of the closure 2. 10-98 immediately after the actual end time of the closure For closures not needed on the authorized date, use code 10-22 within 2 hours after the authorized start time. When calling the TMC to provide the status on your lane closure you will say something to the effect of (substituting your lane closure ID number and Log number for example ID “P101CA” and Log number “1” below), “1097”- “This is (your name, phone number) calling to provide a 1097 status to lane closure ID P101CA and log number 1. That is a 1097 for Papa 101 Charlie Alpha log number 1.” “1098”- “This is (your name, phone number) calling to provide a 1098 status to lane closure ID P101CA, log number 1. That is a 1098 for Papa 101 Charlie Alpha log number 1.” “1022”- “This is (your name, phone number) calling to provide a 1022 status to lane closure ID P101CA, log number 1. That is a 1022 for Papa 101 Charlie Alpha log number 1.” Failure to properly status the lane closures will result in a written warning by the Caltrans Permit Inspector on the first violation. If there is a 2nd violation, your permit may be suspended until a Contractor or new Contractor (C-31 or General Engineering A License preferred) who is experienced in traffic control and LCS notification is hired. Additional violations will result in the revocation of the permit and may impact the processing of future encroachment permit application packages.

All rights reserved. ENCROACHMENT PERMIT GENERAL PROVISIONS TR-0045 (REV. 12/2022) 1. AUTHORITY: The California Department of Transportation (“Department”) has authority to issue encroachment permits under Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 1, Sections 660 through 734 of the Streets and Highways Code. 2. REVOCATION: Encroachment permits are revocable on five (5) business days’ notice unless otherwise stated on the permit or otherwise provided by law, and except as provided by law for public corporations, franchise holders, and utilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in an emergency situation as determined by the Department, an encroachment permit may be revoked immediately. These General Provisions and any applicable Special Provisions are subject to modification or abrogation by the Department at any time. Permittees’ joint use agreements, franchise rights, reserved rights or any other agreements for operating purposes in State of California (“State”) highway right-of-way may be exceptions to this revocation. 3. DENIAL FOR NONPAYMENT OF FEES: Failure to pay encroachment permit fees when due may result in rejection of future applications, denial of encroachment permits, and revocation of the encroachment permit if already issued. 4. PERMITTEE AUTHORIZATION FOR OTHERS TO PERFORM WORK: This encroachment permit allows only the Permittee and/or Permittee’s authorized contractor or agent to work within or encroach upon the State highway right-of-way, and the Permittee may not assign or transfer this encroachment permit. Any attempt to assign or transfer this encroachment permit shall be null and void. Permittee shall provide to the Department a list of Permittee’s authorized contractors/agents, in the form and at the time specified by the Department but if no time is specified then no later than the pre-construction meeting. Permittee shall keep the list current and shall provide updates to the Department immediately upon any change to the list of authorized contractors/agents, including but not limited the addition, removal, or substitution of an authorized contractor/agent, or a new address or contact information for an existing authorized contractor/agent. Permittee is responsible for the acts and/or omissions of any person or entity acting on behalf of the Permittee, even if such person or entity is not included on Permittee’s list of authorized contractors and/or agents. 5. ACCEPTANCE OF PROVISIONS: Permittee, and the Permittee’s authorized contractors and/or agents, understand and agree to accept and comply with these General Provisions, the Special Provisions, any and all terms and/or conditions contained in or incorporated into the encroachment permit, and all attachments to the encroachment permit (collectively “the Permit Conditions”), for any encroachment, work, and/or activity to be performed under this encroachment permit and/or under color of authority of this encroachment permit. Permittee understands and agrees the Permit Conditions are applicable to and enforceable against Permittee as long as the encroachment remains in, under, or over any part of the State highway right-of-way. The Permittee’s authorized contractors and/or agents, are also bound by the Permit Conditions. Non-compliance with the Permit Conditions by the Permittee’s authorized contractor and/or agent will be deemed non-compliance by the Permittee. 6. BEGINNING OF WORK: When traffic is not impacted (see General Provision Number 35), the Permittee must notify the Department’s representative two (2) business days before starting permitted work. Permittee must notify the Department’s representative if the work is to be interrupted for a period of five (5) business days or more, unless otherwise agreed upon. All work must be performed on weekdays during regular work hours, excluding holidays, unless otherwise specified in this encroachment permit. 7. STANDARDS OF CONSTRUCTION: All work performed within State highway right-of-way must conform to all applicable Departmental construction standards including but not limited to: Standard Specifications, Standard Plans, Project Development Procedures Manual, Highway Design Manual and Special Provisions. Other than as expressly provided by these General Provisions, the Special Provisions, the Standard Specifications, Standard Plans, and other applicable Departmental standards, nothing in these General Provisions is intended to give any third party any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim with respect to the encroachment permit and/or to these General Provisions or any provision herein. These General Provisions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Permittee and the Department. Where reference is made in such standards to “Contractor” and “Engineer,” these are amended to be read as “Permittee” and “Department’s representative,” respectively, for purposes of this encroachment permit. 8. PLAN CHANGES: Deviations from plans, specifications, and/or the Permit Conditions as defined in General Provision Number 5 are not allowed without prior approval from the Department’s representative and the Federal Highway Administration (“FHWA”) representative if applicable. 9. RIGHT OF ENTRY, INSPECTION AND APPROVAL: All work is subject to monitoring and inspection. The United States, the State, the Department, and the Directors, officers, employees, agents, and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, and other state, and federal agencies, and the FHWA, through their agents or representatives, must have full access to highway STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT GENERAL PROVISIONS Page 2 of 6 © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All rights reserved. facilities/encroachment area, at any and all times for the purpose of inspection, maintenance, activities needed for construction/reconstruction, and operation of the State highway right-of-way. Upon completion of work, Permittee must request a final inspection for acceptance and approval by the Department. The local public agency Permittee must not give final construction approval to its contractor until final acceptance and approval by the Department is obtained. 10. PERMIT AT WORKSITE: Permittee and Permittee’s authorized contractors/agents must keep the permit package and current list of authorized contractors/agents, or copies thereof, at the work site at all times and must show such documents upon request to any Department representative or law enforcement officer. If the permit package or current list of authorized contractors/agents, or copies thereof, are not kept and made available at the work site at all times, then all work must be suspended. 11. CONFLICTING ENCROACHMENTS: Permittee must yield start of work to ongoing, prior authorized work adjacent to or within the limits of the Permittee’s project site. When existing encroachments conflict with Permittee’s work, the Permittee must bear all cost for rearrangements (e.g., relocation, alteration, removal, etc.). 12. PERMITS, APPROVALS, AND CONCURRENCES FROM OTHER AGENCIES AND/OR ENTITIES: This encroachment permit is invalidated if the Permittee has not obtained all permits, approvals, and concurrences necessary and required by law, including but not limited to those from the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”), California Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“Cal-OSHA”), local and state and federal environmental agencies, the California Coastal Commission, and any other public agency and/or entity having jurisdiction. Permittee is responsible for providing notice of the encroachment to, and obtaining concurrence from, any person or entity (whether public or private) affected by the scope of work described in the encroachment permit, regardless of whether such notice or concurrence is required by law; the Department is not responsible to provide such notice or obtain such concurrence. Permittee warrants all such permits, approvals, and concurrences have been obtained before beginning work under this encroachment permit. The Department may, at the Department’s discretion, require the Permittee to demonstrate that Permittee has obtained all such permits, approvals, and concurrences, and Permittee shall demonstrate this at the time and in the manner specified by the Department. 13. PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLIST SAFETY: A safe continuous passageway must be maintained through the work area at existing pedestrian or bicycle facilities. At no time must pedestrians be diverted onto a portion of the street used for vehicular traffic. At locations where safe alternate passageways cannot be provided, appropriate signs and barricades must be installed at the limits of construction and in advance of the limits of construction at the nearest crosswalk or intersection to detour pedestrians to facilities across the street. Attention is directed to Section 7-1.04 “Public Safety,” and to Section 12-4.04 “Temporary Pedestrian Access Routes,” and to Section 16-2.02 “Temporary Pedestrian Facility,” of the Department’s Standard Specifications, and to California Vehicle Code section 21760, subdivision (c). 14. PUBLIC TRAFFIC CONTROL: The Permittee must provide traffic control protection, warning signs, lights, safety devices, etc., and take all other measures necessary for the traveling public’s safety as required by law and/or the Department. While providing traffic control, the needs of all road users, including but not limited to motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians, including persons with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, must be an essential part of the work activity. Lane, Bike Lane, Sidewalk, Crosswalk, and/or shoulder closures must comply with the Department’s Standard Specifications and Standard Plans for Temporary Traffic Control Systems & Temporary Pedestrian Access Routes, and with the applicable Special Provisions. Where issues are not addressed in the Standard Specifications, Standard Plans, and/or Special Provisions, the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Part 6, Temporary Traffic Control) must be followed. 15. MINIMUM INTERFERENCE WITH TRAFFIC: Permittee must plan and conduct work so as to create the least possible inconvenience to the traveling public (motorized vehicles, unmotorized vehicles such as bicycles, pedestrians, person(s) with disabilities, etc.), such that traffic is not unreasonably delayed. 16. STORAGE OF EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS: The storage of equipment or materials is not allowed within State highway right-of-way, unless specified within the Special Provisions of this encroachment permit. If encroachment permit Special Provisions allow for the storage of equipment or materials within the State highway right-of-way, the equipment and material storage must also comply with Section 7-1.04, Public Safety, of the Department’s Standard Specifications. 17. CARE OF DRAINAGE: Permittee must provide alternate drainage for any work interfering with an existing drainage facility in compliance with the Department’s Standard Specifications, Standard Plans, and/or as directed by the Department’s representative. 18. RESTORATION AND REPAIRS IN STATE HIGHWAY RIGHT-OF-WAY: Permittee is responsible for restoration and repair of State highway right-of-way resulting from permitted work (Streets and Highways Code, section 670 et seq.). 19. STATE HIGHWAY RIGHT-OF-WAY CLEAN UP: Upon completion of work, Permittee must remove and dispose of all scraps, refuse, brush, timber, materials, etc. off the State highway right-of-way. The aesthetics of the highway must be as it was before work started or better. 20. COST OF WORK: Unless stated otherwise in the encroachment permit or a separate written agreement with the Department, the Permittee must bear all costs STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT GENERAL PROVISIONS Page 3 of 6 © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All rights reserved. incurred for work within the State highway right-of-way and waives all claims for indemnification or contribution from the United States, the State, the Department, and from the Directors, officers, and employees of the State and/or the Department. Removal of Permittee’s personal property and improvements shall be at no cost to the United States, the State, and the Department. 21. ACTUAL COST BILLING: When specified in the permit, the Department will bill the Permittee actual costs at the currently set Standard Hourly Rate for encroachment permits. 22. AS-BUILT PLANS: When required, Permittee must submit one (1) set of folded as-built plans within thirty (30) calendar days after completion and acceptance of work in compliance with requirements listed as follows: a) Upon completion of the work provided herein, the Permittee must submit a paper set of As-Built plans to the Department’s representative. b) All changes in the work will be shown on the plans, as issued with the permit, including changes approved by Encroachment Permit Rider. c) The plans are to be prominently stamped or otherwise noted “AS-BUILT” by the Permittee’s representative who was responsible for overseeing the work. Any original plan that was approved with a Department stamp, or by signature of the Department’s representative, must be used for producing the As- Built plans. d) If construction plans include signing or striping, the dates of signing or striping removal, relocation, or installation must be shown on the As-Built plans when required as a condition of the encroachment permit. When the construction plans show signing and striping for staged construction on separate sheets, the sheet for each stage must show the removal, relocation, and installation dates of the appropriate staged striping and signing. e) As-Built plans must contain the Encroachment Permit Number, County, Route, and Post Mile on each sheet. f) The As-Built Plans must not include a disclaimer statement of any kind that differs from the obligations and protections provided by sections 6735 through 6735.6 of the California Business and Professions Code. Such statements constitute non-compliance with Encroachment Permit requirements and may result in the Department retaining Performance Bonds or deposits until proper plans are submitted. Failure to comply may also result in denial of future encroachment permits or a provision requiring a public agency to supply additional bonding. 23. PERMITS FOR RECORD PURPOSES ONLY: When work in the State highway right-of-way is within an area under a Joint Use Agreement (JUA) or a Consent to Common Use Agreement (CCUA), a fee exempt encroachment permit is issued to the Permittee for the purpose of providing a notice and record of work. The Permittee’s prior rights must be preserved without the intention of creating new or different rights or obligations. “Notice and Record Purposes Only” must be stamped across the face of the encroachment permit. 24. BONDING: The Permittee must file bond(s), in advance, in the amount(s) set by the Department and using forms acceptable to the Department. The bonds must name the Department as obligee. Failure to maintain bond(s) in full force and effect will result in the Department stopping all work under this encroachment permit and possibly revoking other encroachment permit(s). Bonds are not required of public corporations or privately-owned utilities unless Permittee failed to comply with the provisions and/or conditions of a prior encroachment permit. The surety company is responsible for any latent defects as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15. A local public agency Permittee also must comply with the following requirements: a) In recognition that project construction work done on State property will not be directly funded and paid by State, for the purpose of protecting stop notice claimants and the interests of State relative to successful project completion, the local public agency Permittee agrees to require the construction contractor to furnish both a payment and performance bond in the local public agency’s name with both bonds complying with the requirements set forth in Section 3-1.05 Contract Bonds of the Department’s Standard Specifications before performing any project construction work. b) The local public agency Permittee must defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the United States, the State and the Department, and the Directors, officers, and employees of the State and/or Department, from all project construction related claims by contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers, and from all stop notice and/or mechanic’s lien claimants. The local public agency also agrees to remedy, in a timely manner and to the Department’s satisfaction, any latent defects occurring as a result of the project construction work. 25. FUTURE MOVING OF INSTALLATIONS: Permittee understands and agrees to relocate a permitted installation upon notice by the Department. Unless under prior property right or agreement, the Permittee must comply with said notice at the Permittee’s sole expense. 26. ENVIRONMENTAL: a) ARCHAEOLOGICAL/HISTORICAL: If any archaeological or historical resources are identified or encountered in the work vicinity, the Permittee must immediately stop work, notify the Department’s representative, retain a qualified archaeologist who must evaluate the site at Permittee’s sole expense, and make recommendations to the Department’s representative regarding the continuance of work. b) HAZARDOUS MATERIALS: If any hazardous waste or materials (such as underground storage tanks, asbestos pipes, contaminated soil, etc.) are identified or encountered in the work vicinity, the Permittee must immediately stop work, notify the Department’s representative, retain a qualified hazardous STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT GENERAL PROVISIONS Page 4 of 6 © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All rights reserved. waste/material specialist who must evaluate the site at the Permittee’s sole expense, and make recommendations to the Department’s representative regarding the continuance of work. Attention is directed to potential aerially deposited lead (ADL) presence in unpaved areas along highways. It is the Permittee’s responsibility to take all appropriate measures to protect workers in conformance with California Code of Regulations Title 8, Section 1532.1, “Lead,” and with Cal-OSHA Construction Safety Orders, and to ensure roadway soil management is in compliance with Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) requirements. c) BIOLOGICAL: If any regional, state, or federally listed biological resource is identified or encountered in the work vicinity, the Permittee must immediately stop work, notify the Department’s representative, retain a qualified biologist who must evaluate the site at Permittee’s sole expense, and make recommendations to the Department’s representative regarding the continuance of work. 27. PREVAILING WAGES: Work performed by or under an encroachment permit may require Permittee’s contractors and subcontractors to pay appropriate prevailing wages as set by the California Department of Industrial Relations. Inquiries or requests for interpretations relative to enforcement of prevailing wage requirements must be directed to the California Department of Industrial Relations. 28. LIABILITY, DEFENSE, AND INDEMNITY: The Permittee agrees to indemnify and save harmless the United States, the State, the Department, and the Directors, officers, employees, agents and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, including but not limited to the Director of Transportation and the Deputy Directors, from any and all claims, demands, damages, costs, liability, suits, or actions of every name, kind, and description, including but not limited to those brought for or on account of property damage, invasion of privacy, violation or deprivation of a right under a state or federal law, environmental damage or penalty, or injury to or death of any person including but not limited to members of the public, the Permittee, persons employed by the Permittee, and/or persons acting on behalf of the Permittee, arising out of or in connection with: (a) the issuance and/or use of this encroachment permit; and/or (b) the encroachment, work, and/or activity conducted pursuant to this encroachment permit, or under color of authority of this encroachment permit but not in full compliance with the Permit Conditions as defined in General Provision Number 5 (“Unauthorized Work or Activity”); and/or (c) the installation, placement, design, existence, operation, and/or maintenance of the encroachment, work, and/or activity; and/or (d) the failure by the Permittee, or by anyone acting for or on behalf of the Permittee, to perform the Permittee’s obligations under any part of the Permit Conditions as defined in General Provision Number 5, in respect to maintenance or any other obligation; and/or (e) any change to the Department’s property or adjacent property, including but not limited to the features or conditions of either of them, made by the Permittee or anyone acting on behalf of the Permittee; and/or (f) a defect or obstruction related to or caused by the encroachment, work, and/or activity whether conducted in compliance with the Permit Conditions as defined in General Provision Number 5 or constituting Unauthorized Work or Activity, or from any cause whatsoever. The duty of the Permittee to indemnify and save harmless includes the duties to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the Civil Code. It is the intent of the Department and the Permittee that except as prohibited by law, the Permittee will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless as set forth in this General Provision Number 28 regardless of the existence or degree of fault or negligence, whether active or passive, primary or secondary, on the part of: the United States, the State; the Department; the Directors, officers, employees, agents and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, including but not limited to the Director of Transportation and the Deputy Directors; the Permittee; persons employed by the Permittee; and/or persons acting on behalf of the Permittee. The Permittee waives any and all rights to any type of expressed or implied indemnity from or against the United States, the State, the Department, and the Directors, officers, employees, agents, and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, including but not limited to the Director of Transportation and the Deputy Directors. The Permittee understands and agrees to comply with the obligations of Titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the conduct of the encroachment, work, and/or activity whether conducted pursuant to this encroachment permit or constituting Unauthorized Work or Activity, and further agrees to defend, indemnify, and save harmless the United States, the State, the Department, and the Directors, officers, employees, agents, and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, including but not limited to the Director of Transportation and the Deputy Directors, from any and all claims, demands, damages, costs, penalties, liability, suits, or actions of every name, kind, and description arising out of or by virtue of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The Permittee understands and agrees the Directors, officers, employees, agents, and/or contractors of the State and/or of the Department, including but not limited to the Director of Transportation and the Deputy Directors, are not personally responsible for any liability arising from or by virtue of this encroachment permit. For the purpose of this General Provision Number 28 and all paragraphs herein, “contractors of the State and/or of the Department” includes contractors, and their subcontractors, under contract to the State and/or the Department.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA - DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT STEEL PLATE BRIDGING UTILITY PROVISIONS TR -0157 (Rev. 04/2018) To accommodate excavation work, steel plate bridging may be necessary. All conditions for use of steel plate bridging should be set forth in the special provisions. Consideration of steel plate bridging should take into account the following factors: 1. Traffic speed. 2. Traffic Volume and Composition. 3. Duration and dimensions (width & daily estimated lengths) of the proposed excavation. 4. Weather conditions. When backfilling operations of an excavation in the traveled way, whether transverse or longitudinal, cannot be properly completed within a work day, steel plate bridging with a non- skid surface and shoring (see Trenching & Shoring) may be required to preserve unobstructed traffic flow. In such cases, the following conditions shall apply: 1. Steel plate bridging on freeways is not allowed. 2. Steel plates used for bridging must extend a minimum of 12" beyond the edges of the trench. 3. Steel plate bridging shall be installed to operate with minimum noise. 4. The trench shall be adequately shored, (as mentioned in Section 603.6B-2 of the Encroachment Permits Manual) to support the bridging and traffic loads. 5. Temporary paving with cold asphalt concrete shall be used to feather the edges of the plates, if plate installation by Method (2) described below, is used. 6. Bridging shall be secured against displacement by using adjustable cleats, shims, or other devices. As required by the district, steel plate bridging and shoring shall be installed using either Method (1) or (2): Method 1 For speeds of 45 MPH or greater: The pavement shall be cold planed to a depth equal to the thickness of the plate and to a width and length equal to the dimensions of the plate. Approach plate(s) and ending plate (if longitudinal placement) shall be attached to the roadway by a minimum of 2 dowels pre-drilled into the corners of the plate and drilled 2" into the pavement. Subsequent plates are to be butted and tack welded to each other. Method 2 For Speeds less than 45 mph: Approach plate(s) and ending plate (if longitudinal placement) shall be attached to the roadway by a minimum of 2 dowels pre-drilled into the corners of the plate and drilled 2" into the pavement. Subsequent plates are to be butted and tack welded to each other. Fine graded asphalt concrete shall be compacted to form ramps, maximum slope 8.5 % with a minimum 12" taper to cover all edges of the steel plates. When steel plates are removed, the dowel holes in the pavement shall be backfilled with either graded fines of asphalt concrete mix, concrete slurry, epoxy or an equivalent that is satisfactory to the Caltrans' representative. The permittee is responsible for maintenance of the steel plates, shoring, asphalt concrete ramps, and ensuring that they meet minimum specifications. Unless specifically noted or granted in the special provisions, or approved by the State representative, steel plate bridging shall not exceed 4 consecutive working days in any given week. Backfilling of excavations shall be covered with a minimum 3" temporary layer of cold asphalt concrete. The following table shows the advisory minimal thickness of steel plate bridging required for a given trench width (A-36 grade steel, designed for HS20-44 truck loading per Caltrans Bridge Design Specifications Manual). Trench Width Minimum Plate Thickness 10” ½” 1’-11” ¾” 2’-7” 7/8” 3’-5” 1” 5’-3” 1 ¾” NOTE: For spans greater than 5'-3", a structural design shall be prepared by a California registered civil engineer. All steel plates within the right of way whether used in or out of the traveled way shall be without deformation. Inspectors can determine the trueness of steel plates by using a straight edge and should reject any plate that is permanently deformed. Steel plates used in the traveled portion of the highway shall have a surface that was manufactured with a nominal Coefficient Of Friction (COF) of 0.35 as determined by California Test Method 342 (See Appendix H, Encroachment Permits Manual). If a different test method is used, the permittee may utilize standard test plates with known coefficients of friction available from each Caltrans District Materials Engineer to correlate skid resistance results to California Test Method 342. Based on the test data, the permittee shall determine what amount of surface wear is acceptable, and independently ascertain when to remove, test, or resurface an individual plate. Caltrans Inspectors should not enforce plate removal unless it is permanently deformed or delivered without the required surfacing. However, an inspector should document in a diary all contacts with the contractor. A “Rough Road” (W8-8) sign and a “Steel Plate Ahead” (W8- 24) sign with black lettering on an orange background must be used in advance of steel plate bridging along with the required construction area signs. These signs must be used along with any other construction area signs. Surfacing requirements are not necessary for steel plates used in parking strips, on shoulders not used for turning movements, or on connecting driveways, etc., not open to the public.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT SPECIAL PROVISIONS © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All Rights Reserved. TREE PRUNING (TRIMMING) AND CHEMICAL APPLICATION TR – 0159 (Rev. 07/2022) In addition to the attached Encroachment Permit General Provisions (TR-0045), the following special provisions are also applicable: I. GENERAL (Applies to BOTH Non-Utility and Utility Projects): 1. Scheduled pruning work may be restricted by Caltrans to maintain mobility during special events, commuter traffic, or other periods of projected high traffic volumes. i. Traffic control is generally authorized from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Extended traffic control hours may be required by Caltrans. ii. Traffic control must conform to requirements shown in the State Standard Plans. When required, the use of a flashing arrow board is MANDATORY. iii. Suspend work during inclement weather, such as heavy fog, if lane or shoulder closures will be required. Do not perform pruning work during periods of high wind to minimize the spread of debris into the traveled way. 2. Prune trees in compliance with the most recent version of ANSI A300-Pruning Part 1, the American National Standard for Tree Care Operations, Tree, Shrub and Other Woody Plant Maintenance-Standard Practices (Pruning), and the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Tree Pruning Best Management Practices. 3. Prune trees in compliance with the seasonal tree pruning restrictions specified in the Migratory Bird Act and meet the seasonal requirements of specific tree species. Perform pruning based upon the age of the tree (newly planted or established), type of tree (evergreen or deciduous), purpose for pruning (maintenance of form, structure, maintaining sight lines, utility clearance), and to minimize the spread of disease (pine pitch canker, eucalyptus psyllid, eucalyptus borer beetles, Dutch elm disease, or mistletoe). 4. Tree trimmers must be licensed by the California State Contractors State License Board and hold a current C61/D49 license. 5. Do not use climbing spurs to prune trees, except when working in the tops of Eucalyptus, Palms, and Conifers. 6. Prune trees to maintain their natural structure and shape. If unbalanced growth already exists, first thin and head prune the tree. Where prior topping or side pruning has resulted in excessive growth over the State right-of-way, prune to restore a balanced , symmetrical shape. Avoid creating large holes in the canopy. Upon completion of work, trees should present a balanced, symmetrical shape that is characteristic of their species. 7. Prune trees to maintain their natural open crown structure. Do not cut young growth year after year at the same fixed distance from the trunk. This technique creates very dense growth at the tree canopy margin, growth called “crow’s nests” or “brooms”. Maintain the natural open crown structure by thinning out dense growth. 8. Prune trees to restore an open crown structure. Remove limbs larger than 2-inches in diameter as necessary to open up dense growth, called “crows' nests” or “brooms.” Make these cuts at laterals or parent branches in older wood so that the following season’s growth will result in a crown structure free of dense, disfiguring growth. STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT SPECIAL PROVISIONS © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All Rights Reserved. 9. Prune trees to avoid redirecting growth over the highway. Maintain the terminal bud of the leader. Perform top or center pruning only after these trees have recovered their natural balance and form. 10. Final cuts must not leave stubs. Prune in ways that maximize wound recovery from callus growth. Keep wounds as small as practicable, reasonably flush, within the shoulder ring area, keeping cambial tissues at the cut edge alive and healthy. Do not make extreme flush cuts that produce large wounds and weaken the tree. 11. Remove debris, cuttings, and tree limbs from the State right-of-way at the end of each workday, leaving the work area in a safe and presentable condition. In regions where pruned limbs and bark might harbor pests or disease (such as pine pitch canker, eucalyptus psyllid, eucalyptus borer beetles, Dutch elm disease, or sudden oak death) dispose pruned materials in accordance with Federal, State, and local agency requirements. 12. Topping of trees is not allowed. 13. Prune trees to allow 8 feet over sidewalks and 17 feet over vehicular pavement. 14. Pruning must not change the character of the tree. II. ADDITIONAL TREE PRUNING REQUIREMENTS FOR UTILITIES ONLY: Comply with the requirements under “I. General” above, and the following: 1. Severity of utility tree pruning work may be restricted by the District Landscape Specialist to preserve the appearance of trees that possess high value due to local community significance, historic landscape potential, or documented horticultural value. 2. Limit pruning severity such that required minimum clearances are maintained for no more than two years. 3. Comply with minimum utility clearances as established by the CPUC General Orders, California Public Resources Code and Federal and State laws. Clearances that exceed the established minimum must be agreed upon by Caltrans and the Utility Company. For most locations, pruning should not take place more frequently than once per year. Pruning clearances and pruning frequencies must reflect the species, growth habit, condition, and health of each tree. 4. Prune trees receiving their first pruning, or recently pruned trees with “directional pruning” as defined in the ISA Tree-Pruning Guidelines. Trees that cannot be directionally pruned, such as older trees that have been topped many times may be submitted for consideration of removal. 5. Do not perform initial, severe “V” shaped pruning on trees along any highway, expressway or freeway without approval from the District Landscape Specialist or District Landscape Architect. Do not perform severe “V” pruning on any tree along a state or federally designated scenic highway without approval first from the local agency and then the District Landscape Architect. 6. Maintain previously “rounded over” trees consistent with past practices, unless Caltrans and the Electric Utility owner agree that the tree can be directionally pruned or have its crown restored without creating structural defects or growth that presents a liability. III. CHEMICAL CONTROL: 1. Do not apply chemicals to trees located on scenic highways. 2. Upon approval by Caltrans to use chemicals, also obtain approval by the County Agricultural Commissioner. STATE OF CALIFORNIA • DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ENCROACHMENT PERMIT SPECIAL PROVISIONS © 2018 California Department of Transportation. All Rights Reserved. 3. Control resprouting tree species using integrated vegetation management program techniques, including chemical and non-chemical methods. 4. Prior to chemical application, obtain a pest control recommendation from a licensed Pest Control Advisor. Submit a copy of the recommendation to the Caltrans District Landscape Specialist or their designee. 5. Utility Companies must maintain a list of locations, chemical types, and quantities used for treatment in pruning operations. Provide this information upon expiration of your annual permit or upon request of the Department during the annual/biennial permit period. 6. Utility Companies must submit copies of MSDS sheets for all chemical compounds used in tree pruning operations along with their permit application. 7. Utility Companies must notify the District Encroachment Permits Office when they change or modify the chemicals used in their pruning operations.

Potholing of utilities, as required for verification of utility depths and protection of existing infrastructure, will be paid for by the lump sum potholing bid item as specified in the bid item list. Additionally, no extra compensation will be allowed for any intermittent operations, delays, or adjustments to paving activities that may arise due to the shallow depth of utilities identified through the potholing process. The contractor is responsible for planning and executing the work to minimize disruptions but will not be entitled to any compensation beyond the lump sum bid item for potholing activities. In addition, the contractor will be liable for repairing any utilities damaged during paving operations if they fail to accurately identify the location of existing utilities.

Manufactured sand is fine aggregate produced by crushing rock or gravel. The hot mix asphalt to be used will be as follows unless modified by the plans or these special provisions: Digouts: 1/2-inch Type A, 3/4-inch Type A may be used if the lift thickness is greater than 0.20-foot. Base Courses: 1/2-inch Type A, 3/4-inch Type A may be used if the lift thickness is greater than 0.20-foot. Leveling Courses: 3/8-inch Type A or No. 4 Type A Surface Courses: 1/2-inch Type A or 3/8-inch Type G if RHMA is specified Skin Patches: 3/8-inch Type A or No. 4 Type A. 39B-1.02F Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement You may substitute RAP for part of the virgin aggregate in a quantity up to 25 percent of the aggregate blend. Provide enough space at your plant for complying with all RAP handling requirements. Provide a clean, graded base, well drained area for stockpiles. If RAP is from multiple sources, blend the RAP thoroughly and completely before fractionating. For RAP substitution greater than 15 percent of the aggregate blend, fractionate RAP stockpiles into 2 sizes, a coarse fraction RAP retained on 3/8-inch sieve and a fine fraction RAP passing 3/8-inch sieve. For RAP substitution of 15 percent of the aggregate blend or less, fractionation is not required. You may use the coarse fractionated stockpile, the fine fractionated stockpile, or a combination of the coarse and fine fractionated stockpiles. Isolate the processed RAP stockpiles from other materials. Store processed RAP in conical or longitudinal stockpiles. Processed RAP must not be agglomerated or be allowed to congeal in large stockpiles. The coarse RAP stockpile shall have 100% passing the 1-inch sieve and the fine RAP stockpile shall have 98-100% passing the 3/8-inch sieve. For Type A HMA mixtures using RAP, the maximum allowed binder replacement is 25.0 percent in the upper 0.2 foot exclusive of OGFC and 40.0 percent below. The binder replacement is calculated as a percentage of the approved JMF target asphalt binder content. For RAP substitution of 15 percent or less, the grade of the virgin binder must be the specified grade of asphalt binder for Type A HMA. For RAP substitution greater than 15 percent and not exceeding 25 percent, the grade of the virgin binder must be the specified grade of asphalt binder for Type A HMA with the upper and lower temperature classification reduced by 6 degrees C. Hamburg wheel track requirements are based on the grade of asphalt binder specified for Type A HMA. RAP SHALL NOT BE USED IN RHMA OR OGFC. 39B-1.03 HOT MIX ASPHALT MIX DESIGN REQUIREMENTS 39B-1.03A General The mix design process consists of performing California Test 367 and laboratory procedures on combinations of aggregate gradations and asphalt binder contents to determine the OBC and HMA mixture qualities. The results become the proposed JMF. Use the Contractor Hot Mix Asphalt Design Data form to record aggregate quality and mix design data. Use the Contractor Job Mix Formula Proposal form to present the JMF. Laboratories testing aggregate qualities and preparing the mix design and JMF must be qualified under the Department's Independent Assurance Program. Take samples under California Test 125. The Engineer reviews the aggregate qualities, mix design, and JMF and verifies and authorizes the JMF. You may change the JMF during production. Do not use the changed JMF until it is authorized. Except if adjusting the JMF as specified in section 39B-1.03E, perform a new mix design and submit a new JMF submittal if you change any of the following: 1. Target asphalt binder percentage 2. Asphalt binder supplier 3. Asphalt rubber binder supplier 4. Component materials used in asphalt rubber binder or percentage of any component materials 5. Combined aggregate gradation 6. Aggregate sources 7. Substitution rate for RAP aggregate of more than 5 percent 8. Any material in the JMF For OGFC, submit a complete JMF submittal, except for asphalt binder content. The Department determines the asphalt binder content under California Test 368 within 20 days of your complete JMF submittal and provides you a Caltrans Hot Mix Asphalt Verification form. 39B-1.03B Hot Mix Asphalt Mix Design Perform a mix design that produces HMA with the values for the quality characteristics shown in the following table: HMA Mix Design Requirements Quality characteristic Test HMA type method A B RHMA-G Air void content (%) California Test 367 4.0 4.0 3.5 Voids in mineral aggregate (% min.)

Moisture_Tests@dot.ca.gov 39B-1.03D Job Mix Formula Review The Engineer reviews each mix design and proposed JMF within 5 business days from the complete JMF submittal. The review consists of reviewing the mix design procedures and comparing the proposed JMF with the specifications. The Engineer may verify aggregate quality characteristics during this review period. 39B-1.03E Job Mix Formula Verification If you cannot submit a Department-verified JMF on a Caltrans Hot Mix Asphalt Verification form dated within 12 months before HMA production, the Engineer verifies the JMF. Based on your testing and production experience, you may submit an adjusted JMF on a Contractor Job Mix Formula Proposal form before verification testing. JMF adjustments may include a change in the: 1. Asphalt binder content TV up to ±0.6 percent from the OBC value submitted on a Contractor Hot Mix Asphalt Design Data form, except for RHMA-G, do not adjust the TV for asphalt rubber binder below 7.0 percent 2. Aggregate gradation TVs within the TV limits specified in the aggregate gradation tables For HMA Type A, Type B, and RHMA-G, the Engineer verifies the JMF from samples taken from HMA produced by the plant to be used. Notify the Engineer at least 2 business days before sampling materials. In the Engineer's presence and from the same production run, take samples of: 1. Aggregate 2. Asphalt binder 3. RAP 4. HMA Sample aggregate from cold feed belts or hot bins. Sample RAP from the RAP system.

Air void content, design value ±2.0 percent 4.2. Voids filled with asphalt, report only if an adjustment for asphalt binder content TV is less than ± 0.3 percent from OBC 4.3. Dust proportion, report only if an adjustment for asphalt binder content TV is less than ±0.3 percent from OBC The Engineer prepares 3 briquettes from a single split sample. To verify the JMF for stability and air void content, the Engineer tests the 3 briquettes and reports the average of 3 tests. The Engineer ttes if the range of stability for the 3 briquettes is more than 8 points. The Engineer may use the briquettes used for stability testing to determine bulk specific gravity under California Test 308. If the same briquettes are used and the tests using bulk specific gravity fail, the Engineer prepares 3 new briquettes and determines a new bulk specific gravity. If the JMF is verified, the Engineer provides you a Caltrans Hot Mix Asphalt Verification form. If tests on plant-produced samples do not verify the JMF, the Engineer notifies you and you must submit a new JMF submittal or submit an adjusted JMF based on your testing. JMF adjustments may include a change in: 1. Asphalt binder content TV up to ±0.6 percent from the OBC value submitted on a Contractor Hot Mix Asphalt Design Data form except do not adjust the TV for asphalt rubber binder for RHMA-G below 7.0 percent 2. Aggregate gradation TVs within the TV limits specified in the aggregate gradation tables You may adjust the JMF only once due to a failed verification test. An adjusted JMF requires a new Contractor Job Mix Formula Proposal form and verification of a plant-produced sample. The Engineer reverifies the JMF if HMA production has stopped for longer than 30 days and the verified JMF is older than 12 months. For each HMA type and aggregate size specified, the Engineer verifies at the Department's expense up to 2 proposed JMF, including a JMF adjusted after verification failure. The Engineer deducts $3,000 from payments for each verification exceeding this limit. This deduction does not apply to verifications initiated by the Engineer or if a JMF expires while HMA production is stopped longer than 30 days. 39B-1.03F Job Mix Formula Renewal You may request a JMF renewal by submitting: 1. Proposed JMF on a Contractor Job Mix Formula Proposal form 2. Previously verified JMF documented on a Caltrans Hot Mix Asphalt Verification form dated within 12 months 3.

Take 1 density core for every 250 tons of HMA from random locations the Engineer designates. Take density cores in the Engineer's presence and backfill and compact holes with authorized material. Before submitting a density core, mark it with the density core's location and place it in a protective container. If a density core is damaged, replace it with a density core taken within 1 foot longitudinally from the original density core. Relocate any density core located within 1 foot of a rumble strip to 1 foot transversely away from the rumble strip. 39B-1.04G Briquettes Prepare 3 briquettes for each stability and air void content determination. Report the average of 3 tests. Prepare new briquettes and test again when the range of stability for the 3 briquettes is more than 8 points. You may use the same briquettes used for stability testing to determine bulk specific gravity under California Test 308. If you use these briquettes and tests using bulk specific gravity fail, you may prepare 3 new briquettes and determine a new bulk specific gravity. 39B-1.05 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA HMA acceptance is specified in the sections for each HMA construction process. The Department samples materials for testing under California Test 125 and the applicable test method, except samples may be taken: 1. At the plant from a truck or an automatic sampling device 2. From the mat behind the paver Sampling must be independent of Contractor quality control, statistically based, and random. If you request, the Department splits samples and provides you with a part. HMA acceptance is based on: 1. Authorized JMF 2. Accepted QC plan for Standard construction process projects 3. Compliance with the HMA acceptance tables 4. Visual inspection The Department prepares 3 briquettes for each stability and air void content determination. The average of 3 tests is reported. If the range of stability for the 3 briquettes is more than 8 points, new briquettes are prepared and tested. The Department may use the briquettes used for stability testing to determine bulk specific gravity under California Test 308. If the Engineer uses the same briquettes and the tests using that bulk specific gravity fail, the Engineer prepares 3 new briquettes and determines a new bulk specific gravity. 39B-1.06 DISPUTE RESOLUTION Work with the Engineer to avoid potential conflicts and to resolve disputes regarding test result discrepancies. Notify the Engineer within 5 days of receiving a test result if you dispute the test result. If you or the Engineer dispute each other's test results, submit quality control test results and copies of paperwork including worksheets used to determine the disputed test results. An independent third party performs referee testing. Before the independent third party participates in a dispute resolution, the party must be accredited under the Department's Independent Assurance Program. The independent third party must be independent of the project. By mutual agreement, the independent third party is chosen from: 1. Department laboratory 2. Department laboratory in a district or region not in the district or region the project is located 3. Transportation Laboratory 4. Laboratory not currently employed by you or your HMA producer If split quality control or acceptance samples are not available, the independent third party uses any available material representing the disputed HMA for evaluation. 39B-1.07 PRODUCTION START-UP EVALUATION The Engineer evaluates HMA production and placement at production start-up. Within the first 750 tons produced on the 1st day of HMA production, in the Engineer's presence and from the same production run, take samples of: 1. Aggregate 2. Asphalt binder 3. RAP 4. HMA Sample aggregate from cold feed belts or hot bins. Take RAP samples from the RAP system.

Mat behind the paver For aggregate, RAP, and HMA, split the samples into at least 4 parts and label their containers. Submit 3 split parts and keep 1 part. For Standard construction process projects, you and the Department must test the split samples and report test results within 3 business days of sampling. If you proceed before receipt of the test results, the Engineer may consider the HMA placed to be represented by these test results. For Standard construction process projects, take 4- or 6-inch diameter density cores within the first 750 tons on the 1st day of HMA production. For each density core, the Department reports the bulk specific gravity determined under California Test 308, Method A, in addition to the percent of maximum theoretical density. You may test for in-place density at the density core locations and include them in your production tests for percent of maximum theoretical density. 39B-1.08 PRODUCTION 39B-1.08A General Produce HMA in a batch mixing plant or a continuous mixing plant. Proportion aggregate by hot or cold feed control. HMA plants must be Department qualified. Before production, the HMA plant must have current qualification under the Department's Materials Plant Quality Program. During production, you may adjust: 1. Hot or cold feed proportion controls for virgin aggregate and RAP 2. Set point for asphalt binder content 39B-1.08B Mixing Mix HMA ingredients into a homogeneous mixture of coated aggregates. Asphalt binder must be from 275 to 375 degrees F when mixed with aggregate. Asphalt rubber binder must be from 350 to 425 degrees F when mixed with aggregate. When mixed with asphalt binder, aggregate must not be more than 325 degrees F, except aggregate for OGFC must be not more than 275 degrees F.

HMA with or without RAP must not be more than 325 degrees F. 39B-1.08C Asphalt Rubber Binder Deliver scrap tire crumb rubber and high natural rubber in separate bags. Either proportion and mix asphalt binder, asphalt modifier, and CRM simultaneously or premix the asphalt binder and asphalt modifier before adding CRM. If you premix the asphalt binder and asphalt modifier, the asphalt binder must be from 375 to 425 degrees F when you add the asphalt modifier. Mix for at least 20 minutes. When you add CRM, the asphalt binder and asphalt modifier must be from 375 to 425 degrees F. Do not use asphalt rubber binder during the first 45 minutes of the reaction period. During this period, the asphalt rubber binder mixture must be from 375 to the lower of 425 degrees F or 25 degrees F below the asphalt binder's flash point described in the MSDS. If any asphalt rubber binder is not used within 4 hours after the reaction period, discontinue heating. If the asphalt rubber binder drops below 375 degrees F, reheat before use. If you add more scrap tire crumb rubber to the reheated asphalt rubber binder, the binder must react for 45 minutes. The added scrap tire crumb rubber must not exceed 10 percent of the total asphalt rubber binder weight. Reheated and reacted asphalt rubber binder must comply with the viscosity specifications for asphalt rubber binder in section 39B-1.02D. Do not reheat asphalt rubber binder more than twice. 39B-1.09 SUBGRADE, TACK COAT, AND GEOSYNTHETIC PAVEMENT INTERLAYER 39B-1.09A General Prepare subgrade or apply tack coat to surfaces receiving HMA. If specified, place geosynthetic pavement interlayer over a coat of asphalt binder. The work shall consist of preparing the existing street surfaces prior to the commencement of paving. Such work shall include removing raised pavement markers, removing thermoplastic traffic markings and legends, controlling nuisance water, sweeping, watering, and removing loose and broken pavement and foreign material as specified in the Standard Specifications and these Technical Provisions, and as directed by the Engineer. 39B-1.09B Subgrade Subgrade to receive HMA must comply with the compaction and elevation tolerance specifications in the sections for the material involved. Subgrade must be free of loose and extraneous material. If HMA is paved on existing base or pavement, remove loose paving particles, dirt, and other extraneous material by any means including flushing and sweeping. 39B-1.09C Tack Coat Apply tack coat: 1. To existing pavement, including planed surfaces 2. Between HMA layers 3. To vertical surfaces of: 3.1. Curbs 3.2. Gutters 3.3. Construction joints Before placing HMA, apply tack coat in 1 application. The application rate must be the minimum residual rate specified for the underlying surface conditions shown in the following tables: Tack Coat Application Rates for HMA Type A, Type B, and RHMA-G HMA overlay over: Minimum residual rates (gal/sq yd) CSS1/CSS1h, SS1/SS1h and QS1h/CQS1h asphaltic emulsion CRS1/CRS2, RS1/RS2 and QS1/CQS1 asphaltic emulsion Asphalt binder and PMRS2/PMCRS2 and PMRS2h/PMCRS2h asphaltic emulsion New HMA (between layers) 0.02 0.03 0.02 PCC and existing HMA (AC) surfaces 0.03 0.04 0.03 Planed PCC and HMA (AC) surfaces 0.05 0.06 0.04 Tack Coat Application Rates for OGFC OGFC over: Minimum residual rates (gal/sq yd) CSS1/CSS1h, SS1/SS1h and QS1h/CQS1h asphaltic emulsion CRS1/CRS2, RS1/RS2 and QS1/CQS1 asphaltic emulsion Asphalt binder and PMRS2/PMCRS2 and PMRS2h/PMCRS2h asphaltic emulsion New HMA 0.03 0.04 0.03 PCC and existing HMA (AC) surfaces 0.05 0.06 0.04 Planed PCC and HMA (AC) surfaces 0.06 0.07 0.05 If you dilute asphaltic emulsion, mix until homogeneous before application. For vertical surfaces, apply a residual tack coat rate that will thoroughly coat the vertical face without running off. If you request and if authorized, you may: 1. Change tack coat rates 2. Omit tack coat between layers of new HMA during the same work shift if: 2.1. No dust, dirt, or extraneous material is present 2.2. Surface is at least 140 degrees F Immediately in advance of placing HMA, apply additional tack coat to damaged areas or where loose or extraneous material is removed. Close areas receiving tack coat to traffic. Do not track tack coat onto pavement surfaces beyond the job site. Asphalt binder tack coat must be from 285 to 350 degrees F when applied. 39B-1.09D Geosynthetic Pavement Interlayer Place geosynthetic pavement interlayer under the manufacturer's instruction. Before placing the geosynthetic pavement interlayer and asphalt binder: 1. Repair cracks 1/4 inch and wider, spalls, and holes in the pavement. These repairs are change order work. 2. Clean the pavement of loose and extraneous material. Immediately before placing the interlayer, apply 0.25 ± 0.03 gal of asphalt binder per square yard of interlayer or until the fabric is saturated. Apply asphalt binder the width of the geosynthetic pavement interlayer plus 3 inches on each side. At interlayer overlaps, apply asphalt binder on the lower interlayer the same overlap distance as the upper interlayer. Asphalt binder must be from 285 to 350 degrees F and below the minimum melting point of the geosynthetic pavement interlayer when applied. Align and place the interlayer with no folds that result in a triple thickness, except that triple thickness layers less than 1 inch in width may remain if less than 1/2 inch in height. Folds that result in a triple layer greater than a 1 inch width must be slit and overlapped in a double thickness at least 2 inches in width. The minimum HMA thickness over the interlayer must be 0.12 foot thick, including conform tapers. Do not place the interlayer on a wet or frozen surface. Overlap the interlayer borders from 2 to 4 inches. In the direction of paving, overlap the following roll with the preceding roll at any break. You may use rolling equipment to correct distortions or wrinkles in the interlayer. If asphalt binder tracked onto the interlayer or brought to the surface by construction equipment causes interlayer displacement, cover it with a small quantity of HMA. Before placing HMA on the interlayer, do not expose the interlayer to: 1. Traffic, except for crossings under traffic control, and only after you place a small HMA quantity 2. Sharp turns from construction equipment 3. Damaging elements Pave HMA on the interlayer during the same work shift. 39B-1.09E Vegetation Removal and Herbicide Prior to placing asphalt paving over an existing surface, the surface must be cleaned by vacuum sweeping, or other means necessary to remove all surface contaminates, to the satisfaction of the Engineer, including: 1. Loose particles of paving 2. Dirt 3. Grease 4. Oil spots 5. Other extraneous material Prior to vegetation removal spray an approved herbicide, which leaves behind a visible blue marker dye, a minimum of 48 hours in advance of vegetation removal. Submit to the Engineer a written recommendation, for herbicide intended to be used, by a Licensed Pest Control Adviser along with material safety data sheets of recommended products. Apply Herbicide in strict compliance with all: 1. Federal law 2. State law 3. Local law 4. Manufacturer’s recommendations Remove vegetation in pavement from the following locations prior to cleaning and placing HMA. 1. Cracks 2. Between pavement and gutter 3. Between pavement and curb 39B-1.10 SPREADING AND COMPACTING EQUIPMENT Paving equipment for spreading must be: 1. Self-propelled 2. Mechanical 3. Equipped with a screed or strike-off assembly that can distribute HMA the full width of a traffic lane 4. Equipped with a full-width compacting device 5. Equipped with automatic screed controls and sensing devices that control the thickness, longitudinal grade, and transverse screed slope Install and maintain grade and slope references. The screed must produce a uniform HMA surface texture without tearing, shoving, or gouging. Unless approved otherwise, ski-type devices with a minimum length of 30 feet shall be used to provide a reference for the grade sensor. Skis shall be constructed and installed in such a manner that a reference to the average elevation of the existing pavement, along the length of the ski, is maintained at the sensor point. When placing surfacing adjacent to surfacing previously placed in conformance with these provisions, a joint matching shoe of adequate size and type to properly sense the grade of the previously placed mat may be used in lieu of the 30-foot ski. The ski shall be mounted at a location which will provide an accurate reference for the surfacing being placed. This may require the ski to be mounted ahead of and inside the outer limits of the screed. Automatic cross slope control may be accomplished by use of a ski and grade sensor on each side of the paving machine. Automatic screed controls shall be installed in such a manner that the occasional manual adjustments necessary to maintain the attitude of the screed parallel to the underlying pavement are readily accomplished. Automatic screed controls shall be installed so that with little or no delay, use of the automatic controls can be discontinued and the screed controlled by manual methods. If it is determined by the Engineer that the existing grade and cross slope are too irregular for the automatic controls to provide the quality of work required, the use of the automatic controls shall be discontinued and the spreading equipment adjusted by manual methods. Use of automatic controls shall resume when the Engineer has determined that it is again practical and so orders. The paver must not leave marks such as ridges and indentations, unless you can eliminate them by rolling. Rollers must be equipped with a system that prevents HMA from sticking to the wheels. You may use a parting agent that does not damage the HMA or impede the bonding of layers. The number of rollers required for each paving operation shall be such that all rolling for density can be completed before the temperature of the hot mix asphalt mixture drops below 240 degrees Fahrenheit. Breakdown rolling shall commence when the hot mix asphalt is placed. Rolling shall be accomplished with the drive wheel forward and with the advance and return passes in the same line. Intermediate rolling shall be performed by an 8 to 12 ton pneumatic tire roller. The Contractor shall have hand-compaction equipment immediately available for compacting all areas inaccessible to rollers. Hand-compaction shall be performed concurrently with breakdown rolling. If for any reason hand-compaction falls behind breakdown rolling, further placement of hot mix asphalt shall be suspended until hand-compaction is completed. Hand-compaction includes vibraplates and hand tampers. Hand torches shall be available for rework of areas which have cooled. After compaction, the surface texture of all hand work areas shall match the surface texture of the machine placed mat. Any coarse or segregated areas shall be corrected immediately upon discovery. Failure to immediately address these areas shall cause suspension of hot mix asphalt placement until the areas are satisfactorily addressed, unless otherwise allowed by the Engineer. In areas inaccessible to spreading and compacting equipment: 1. Spread the HMA by any means to obtain the specified lines, grades, and cross sections. 2. Use a pneumatic tamper, plate compactor, or equivalent to achieve thorough compaction. 39B-1.11 TRANSPORTING, SPREADING, AND COMPACTING Do not pave HMA on wet pavement or a frozen surface. You may deposit HMA in a windrow and load it in the paver if: 1. Paver is equipped with a hopper that automatically feeds the screed 2. Loading equipment can pick up the windrowed material and deposit it in the paver hopper without damaging base material 3. Activities for deposit, pickup, loading, and paving are continuous 4. HMA temperature in the windrow does not fall below 260 degrees F You may pave HMA in 1 or more layers on areas less than 5 feet wide and outside the traveled way, including shoulders. You may use mechanical equipment other than a paver for these areas. The equipment must produce uniform smoothness and texture. HMA handled, spread, or windrowed must not stain the finished surface of any improvement, including pavement. Do not use petroleum products such as kerosene or diesel fuel to release HMA from trucks, spreaders, or compactors. HMA must be free of: 1. Segregation 2. Coarse or fine aggregate pockets 3. Hardened lumps Longitudinal joints in the top layer must match specified lane edges. Alternate the longitudinal joint offsets in the lower layers at least 0.5 foot from each side of the specified lane edges. You may request other longitudinal joint placement patterns. Until the adjoining through lane's top layer has been paved, do not pave the top layer of: 1. Shoulders 2. Tapers 3. Transitions 4. Road connections 5. Driveways 6. Curve widenings 7. Chain control lanes 8. Turnouts 9. Turn pockets If the number of lanes changes, pave each through lane's top layer before paving a tapering lane's top layer. Simultaneous to paving a through lane's top layer, you may pave an adjoining area's top layer, including shoulders. Do not operate spreading equipment on any area's top layer until completing final compaction. If leveling with HMA is specified, fill and level irregularities and ruts with HMA before spreading HMA over the base, existing surfaces, or bridge decks. You may use mechanical equipment other than a paver for these areas. The equipment must produce uniform smoothness and texture. HMA used to change an existing surface's cross slope or profile is not paid for as HMA (leveling). A leveling course of variable thickness shall be placed and compacted prior to placing the surface course at locations where directed by the Engineer. The leveling course will be used to correct pavement irregularities such as rutting, variable cross slope, or variable longitudinal slope. Where two overlays of different thickness abut at a longitudinal joint, the Contractor shall add to the thinner section to match the thicker lift and provide a smooth transition and uniform cross-fall. Cold-planing ridges or other rises in the pavement surface may be required by the Engineer. The Engineer will determine the exact limits and thickness of the leveling courses, hot mix asphalt fills, and transitions. If placing HMA against the edge of existing pavement, sawcut or grind the pavement straight and vertical along the joint and remove extraneous material. Rolling must leave the completed surface compacted and smooth without tearing, cracking, or shoving. Complete finish rolling activities before the pavement surface temperature is: 1. Below 150 degrees F for HMA with unmodified binder 2. Below 140 degrees F for HMA with modified binder 3. Below 200 degrees F for RHMA-G If a vibratory roller is used as a finish roller, turn the vibrator off. Do not use a pneumatic-tired roller to compact RHMA-G. For Standard construction processes, if 3/4-inch aggregate grading is specified, you may use 1/2-inch aggregate grading if the total layer thickness is from 0.125 to 0.20 foot thick. Spread and compact HMA under sections 39B-3.03 and 39B-3.04 if any of the following applies: 1. Specified paved thickness is less than 0.15 foot. 2. Specified paved thickness is less than 0.20 foot and 3/4-inch aggregate grading is specified and used. 3. You spread and compact at: 3.1. Asphalt concrete surfacing replacement areas 3.2. Leveling courses 3.3. Areas for which the Engineer determines conventional compaction and compaction measurement methods are impeded Do not allow traffic on new HMA pavement until its mid-depth temperature is below 160 degrees F. If you request and if authorized, you may cool HMA Type A and Type B with water when rolling activities are complete. Apply water under section 17-3. Spread sand at a rate from 1 to 2 lb/sq yd on new RHMA-G, RHMA-O, and RHMA-O-HB pavement when finish rolling is complete. Sand must be free of clay or organic matter. Sand must comply with section 90- 1.02C(4)(c). Keep traffic off the pavement until spreading sand is complete. The Contractor shall construct temporary pavement transitions at all transverse paving joints greater than 1 inch prior to allowing traffic onto the paved surface. Temporary pavement transitions shall have a maximum slope of 20:1 or as approved by the engineer and be constructed on Kraft paper or other suitable bond breaker such that upon removal of the temporary pavement transition, a clean notch remains. The temporary transitions may be constructed of either cold mix or hot mix. The Contractor shall continuously maintain the temporary pavement until final paving. Each temporary transition shall be inspected by the Contractor and repaired as necessary to comply with these provisions at the end of each day including weekends and holidays. Failure to comply with these provisions will result in a liquidated damage of $250 per day per transition and/or the cost of City crews making the repairs if necessary to correct for public safety. The Contractor shall layout and mark the location of the edges of the paving passes of the surface course to match the new layout of the lane lines. The layout shall be made at least 24 hours prior to paving. The layout shall be approved by the Engineer prior to paving. If the striping is to remain unchanged, the edges of the paving passes shall conform to existing lane edges. In all cases where practical, each lane shall be paved in a single pass. In tapered transition areas, the shoulder areas shall be paved first, then the through lane shall be paved immediately after the shoulder paving. For paving which incorporates new quarterpoints or gradebreaks due to keycuts or other conditions, the Contractor shall provide equipment capable of adjusting to the new surface profile at the appropriate locations. The profile adjustments shall be within twelve inches of the actual gradebreak or quarterpoint. The Contractor shall take sufficient measurements during laydown to ensure that the full design hot mix asphalt layer depth is provided at each quarterpoint, gradebreak, or transition. Failure to provide the design depth at these areas will result in rejection of the work. Correction of this rejected work will include milling out the new hot mix asphalt from the road edge to the centerline or nearest inside lane line and repaving. The minimum length of the milled and corrected area shall be fifty feet. The finished hot mix asphalt surface shall be flush with, to 1/4 inch (0.20 feet or 6 mm) above, the gutter lips. The finished pavement surface shall not be lower than the gutter lips. The average pavement thickness shall be equal to the specified thickness for the project. For total pavement thicknesses of less than four inches, the minimum allowable thickness will be 1/4 inch less than that specified. For total pavement thicknesses of four inches or more, the minimum allowable thickness will be 1/2 inch less than that specified. NO HMA OR RHMA OR OGFC SHALL BE PLACED AFTER 3:00 PM. 39B-1.12 SMOOTHNESS 39B-1.12A General Determine HMA smoothness with a straightedge. Smoothness specifications do not apply to OGFC placed on existing pavement not constructed under the same project. If concrete pavement is placed on HMA: 1. Cold plane the HMA finished surface to within specified tolerances if it is higher than the grade ordered. 2. Remove and replace HMA if the finished surface is lower than 0.05 foot below the grade ordered. 39B-1.12B Straightedge The top layer of HMA pavement must not vary from the lower edge of a 12-foot straightedge: 1. More than 0.01 foot when the straightedge is laid parallel with the centerline 2. More than 0.02 foot when the straightedge is laid perpendicular to the centerline and extends from edge to edge of a traffic lane 3. More than 0.02 foot when the straightedge is laid within 24 feet of a pavement conform 39B-1.12C Inertial Profiling Upon the request of the Engineer, comply with Section 39B-2.01A(4)(i)(iii) “Pavement Smoothness” and Section 36-3 “PAVEMENT SMOOTHNESS” of the 2024 Caltrans Standard Specifications. The procedures, specifications, corrective actions, and deductions therein shall apply.39B-1.12D Smoothness Correction If the top layer of HMA Type A, Type B, or RHMA-G pavement does not comply with the smoothness specifications, grind the pavement to within specified tolerances, remove and replace it, or place an overlay of HMA. Do not start corrective work until your choice of methods is authorized. Remove and replace areas of OGFC not in compliance with the must-grind and straightedge specifications, except you may grind OGFC for correcting smoothness: 1. At transverse joints separating the OGFC from pavement not constructed under the same project 2. Within 12 feet of a transverse joint separating the OGFC from a bridge deck or approach slab Corrected HMA pavement areas must be uniform rectangles with edges: 1. Parallel to the nearest HMA pavement edge or lane line 2. Perpendicular to the pavement centerline Measure the corrected HMA pavement surface with a 12-foot straightedge and correct the pavement to within specified tolerances. If a must-grind area or straightedged pavement cannot be corrected to within specified tolerances, remove and replace the pavement. On areas ground but not overlaid with OGFC, apply fog seal coat under section 37-2. 39B-1.13 HOT MIX ASPHALT ON BRIDGE DECKS Produce and place HMA on bridge decks under the Method construction process. Aggregate must comply with the 1/2-inch HMA Types A and B gradation. If authorized, aggregate may comply with the no. 4 HMA Types A and B gradation for a section or taper at a bridge end that is less than 1 inch in total depth. If a concrete expansion dam is to be placed at a bridge deck expansion joint, tape oil-resistant construction paper to the deck over the area to be covered by the dam before placing the tack coat and HMA across the joint. Do not leave a vertical joint more than 0.15 foot high between adjacent lanes open to traffic. The tack coat application rate must be the minimum residual rate specified in section 39B-1.09C. For HMA placed on a deck seal, use the minimum residual rate specified for a PCC underlying surface. HMA placed on a deck seal must be placed in at least 2 approximately equal layers. The 1st layer must be at least 1 inch thick after compaction. Protect the deck seal throughout all operations. For placement of the 1st HMA layer on a deck seal: 1. Comply with the HMA application temperature recommended by the deck seal manufacturer. 2. Deliver and place HMA using equipment with pneumatic tires or rubber-faced wheels. Do not operate other vehicles or equipment on the bare deck seal. 3. Deposit HMA on the deck seal in such a way that the deck seal is not damaged.

If the production start-up is used for verification the Engineer may require removal and replacement of the HMA, at his discretion, in the event of verification failure. The contractor shall have a quality control inspector present with a nuclear gauge actively monitoring compaction throughout the shift for all paving operations where compaction is an acceptance criterion; the quality control inspector shall be devoted to that purpose and shall not have another role on the paving crew. Failure to have a quality control inspector present with a nuclear gauge will result in liquidated damages of $2000 per day. Contractor quality control materials testing is optional. However, if the contractor fails to submit quality control results to the engineer within 72 hours of HMA placement, the contractor waves all rights to dispute the Engineer’s results. In the event of asphalt binder or Hamburg wheel track testing by the Engineer, the contractor has 5 days to submit their test results from the time the Engineer informs the contractor that he is performing testing or the contractor waves the right to dispute the Engineer’s results. The Engineer shall test for conformance with aggregate quality characteristics at the beginning of the project. The Engineer shall test air void content and Hveem stability at least once per day, additional testing is at the discretion of the Engineer. The Engineer may sample the hot mix asphalt from the windrow or the mat behind the paver at the discretion of the Engineer. The Contractor shall facilitate the sampling process Perform sampling and testing at the specified frequency for the quality characteristics shown in the following table: Minimum Quality Control—Standard Construction Process Quality characteristic Test method Minimum sampling and testing frequency HMA type A B RHMA-G OGFC Aggregate gradationa California Test 202 1 per 750 tons and any remaining part JMF Toleranceb JMF Toleranceb JMF Toleranceb JMF Toleranceb Sand equivalent (min)c California Test 217 47 42 47 -- Asphalt binder content (%) California Test 379 or 382 JMF 0.45 JMF 0.45 JMF 0.50 JMF 0.50 HMA moisture content (%, max) California Test 226 or 370 1 per 2,500 tons but not less than 1 per paving day 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Percent of maximum theoretical density (%)d, e QC plan 2 per business day (min.) 92–97 92–97 92–97 -- Stabilometer value (min)c, f No. 4 and 3/8" gradings 1/2" and 3/4" gradings California Test 366 1 per business day (min.) 30 37 30 35 23 23 -- -- Air void content (%)c, g California Test 367 TV 1.5 TV 1.5 TV 1.5 -- Aggregate moisture content at continuous mixing plants and RAP moisture content at continuous mixing plants and batch mixing plantsh California Test 226 or 370 2 per day during production -- -- -- -- Percent of crushed particles coarse aggregate (%, min) One fractured face Two fractured faces Fine aggregate (%, min) (Passing no. 4 sieve and retained on no. 8 sieve.)

No single test result may represent more than 750 tons, one street, or 1 day's production, whichever is less. For any single quality characteristic except smoothness, if 2 consecutive acceptance test results do not comply with the specifications: 1. Stop production. 2. Take corrective action. 3. Take samples and split each sample into 4 parts in the Engineer's presence. Test 1 part for compliance with the specifications and submit 3 parts to the Engineer. The Department tests 1 part for compliance with the specifications and reserves and stores 2 parts. 4. Demonstrate compliance with the specifications before resuming production and placement. The Engineer may withhold acceptance in the event of any failing test result until the Contractor has addressed the failing material to the Engineer’s satisfaction. Lots to determine compaction testing shall be based on the following: Each 750 tons, or part thereof, placed on an individual street in a paving day. If over 750 tons are placed in a single paving day on an individual street, up to 150 tons over 750 tons can be moved into the previous 750 ton lot. If multiple streets are paved in a day, each street will be considered its own lot with multiple lot on streets where greater than 750 tons are placed. Density testing shall be required on all layers that are at least 1.75 inches in thickness unless the engineer determines area is not suitable for traditional compaction methods. The in-place density shall be between 92.0 percent and 97.0 percent of maximum theoretical specific (Rice) gravity using a nuclear gauge. At the Engineer’s discretion, compaction testing may be performed using a nuclear gauge. Final compaction is based on the average nuclear gauge results for the lot. The nuclear gauge will be core correlated the first day of paving using as many cores as the Engineer deems appropriate. If nuclear gauge compaction testing results are failing, the contractor can request coring to verify the results. Three cores will be sampled for each lot and the average of the three cores for each lot will determine the in-place density. The core locations will be determined using random sampling charts in CTM 375. The engineer will mark the core locations. Cores may be taken up to 5 calendar days after placement and may be 4 or 6 inches in diameter. The engineer will provide results within 3 working days of receiving the cores. Passing cores shall be paid for by the owner. Failing cores will be paid for by the contractor. If the core testing produces both passing and failing cores, the cost will be prorated between the contractor and the owner. For the percent of maximum theoretical density, the following table shall apply to deductions for average compaction of a lot: Reduced Payment Factors for Percent of Maximum Theoretical Density HMA Type A and B and RHMA-G percent of maximum theoretical density Reduced payment factor HMA Type A and B and RHMA-G percent of maximum theoretical density Reduced payment factor 92.0 0.0000 97.0 0.0000 91.9 0.0125 97.1 0.0125 91.8 0.0250 97.2 0.0250 91.7 0.0375 97.3 0.0375 91.6 0.0500 97.4 0.0500 91.5 0.0625 97.5 0.0625 91.4 0.0750 97.6 0.0750 91.3 0.0875 97.7 0.0875 91.2 0.1000 97.8 0.1000 91.1 0.1125 97.9 0.1125 91.0 0.1250 98.0 0.1250 90.9 0.1375 98.1 0.1375 90.8 0.1500 98.2 0.1500 90.7 0.1625 98.3 0.1625 90.6 0.1750 98.4 0.1750 90.5 0.1875 98.5 0.1875 90.4 0.2000 98.6 0.2000 90.3 0.2125 98.7 0.2125 90.2 0.2250 98.8 0.2250 90.1 0.2375 98.9 0.2375 90.0 0.2500 99.0 0.2500 < 90.0 Remove and replace > 99.0 Remove and replace 39B-2.04 TRANSPORTING, SPREADING, AND COMPACTING Determine the number of rollers needed to obtain the specified density and surface finish. 39B-3 METHOD CONSTRUCTION PROCESS 39B-3.01 GENERAL Section 39B-3 includes specifications for HMA produced and constructed under the Method construction process. 39B-3.02 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA 39B-3.02A Testing The Department samples for acceptance testing and tests for the quality characteristics shown in the following table: HMA Acceptance—Method Construction Process Quality characteristic Test method HMA type A B RHMA-G OGFC Aggregate gradation a California Test 202 JMF tolerance b JMF tolerance b JMF tolerance b JMF tolerance b Sand equivalent (min) c California Test 217 47 42 47 -- Asphalt binder content (%) California Test 379 or 382 JMF 0.45 JMF 0.45 JMF 0.50 JMF 0.50 HMA moisture content (%, max) California Test 226 or 370 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Stabilometer value (min) c, d No. 4 and 3/8" gradings 1/2" and 3/4" gradings California Test 366 30 37 30 35 23 23 -- -- Percent of crushed particles Coarse aggregate (% min) One fractured face Two fractured faces Fine aggregate (% min) (Passing no. 4 sieve and retained on no. 8 sieve.)

For RHMA-G and OGFC, tarpaulins are not required if the time from discharging to the truck until transfer to the paver's hopper or the pavement surface is less than 30 minutes. HMA compaction coverage is the number of passes needed to cover the paving width. A pass is 1 roller's movement parallel to the paving in either direction. Overlapping passes are part of the coverage being made and are not a subsequent coverage. Do not start a coverage until completing the prior coverage. Start rolling at the lower edge and progress toward the highest part. Perform breakdown compaction of each layer of HMA Type A, Type B, and RHMA-G with 3 coverages using a vibratory roller. The speed of the vibratory roller in miles per hour must not exceed the vibrations per minute divided by 1,000. If the thickness of the HMA layer is less than 0.08 foot, turn the vibrator off.
