Per 930-P01 DEWATERING: Provide stormwater pumping as necessary during use of the temporary bypass at RP 103.180. Ensure the stormwater does not impact any buildings or structures. The estimated peak discharge for a 2-year storm event at this location is 4 cubic feet per second. There is no bypass at 103.18. At 103.18 is the deck overlay and no bypass is called for. Can you please clarify this and if the dewatering item is needed?

Question 5

Submit Additional Question for Question 5

Per SP 152(25) E. Full Depth Reclamation 1. General. Reclaim to the depth shown in the plans. Process reclaimed material so that the nominal aggregate size is 1.5 inches. Is the expectation that this material is to be hauled off the project and processed to meet 1.5" minus? A reclaimer is not able to size material to this exact requirement and there are no bid items for this work. Other reclaim jobs have been a 2" minus and have not used the work process. Please clarify.

DOT Response

The intent is not for the material to be hauled offsite for additional processing. The contractor should be able to adjust reclaimer’s mechanical settings to provide some control over the gradation during the reclamation process. The DOT does not view this requirement as a change from previous projects. The goal remains for 90–100% of the reclaimed material to pass the 1½-inch sieve. We anticipate the material will meet this requirement through the normal reclamation process without additional bid items.
