Specifications include, but are not limited to: This project consists of a slide around Mr. Fields house at Tan Yard Hollow Road in Letcher, County. Mr. Fields house is in imminent danger of sliding from its foundation and both the house and slide threatens access to the residences past his house and to Ky 931. This slide is located in Letcher County. To access the site from Whitesburg take Ky 931 in a northerly direction 3.88 miles to Tan Yard Hollow Road. Turn right and travel approximately 500 feet to reach the slide area on the left. The coordinates to the slide area are 3710'32.20"N, 8249'28.56"W. The Waste Area to be used is owned by the Mayking Fire Department and is an active fill site. The site is located beside US 119 in Letcher County approximately 3.4 miles south of the US 119 and Ky 15 junction in Whitesburg, Ky. The Coordinates are 378'15.80N, 8245'34.23W. The primary slide abatement planned consists of a railroad steel and guardrail lagging wall in front of the residence to prevent further damage to the residence and to protect the access of the other residents of Tan Yard Hollow Road and possible closure of Ky 931. Filter fabric and #2 stone backfill will be placed behind the wall. Mobilization is setup to provide for construction equipment to be delivered to the site. Utility Relocation/Replacement is set up in case any utility becomes impacted by the project. Traffic control is set up for road closures. Tan Yard Hollow Road will need to be closed for short periods of time to allow for material and equipment delivery. Structure Removal is setup to address the removal of a car port to facilitate access to the location. Pilot Holes are setup to determine rock line depths in areas that bedrock depths are unknown. This will allow for further determination for the length of rail steel used. Earthwork work bid item is included to excavate for the placement of the rail steel and guardrail lagging wall. A hoe ram and excavator bid item is set up to address any areas where rock or soil needs to be removed to facilitate access for the drill rig and placement of the rail steel. Residential seeding is included for all revegetation efforts within the site. Dense Grade is included to provide for access during normal reclamation. Silt barrier is set up to prevent loose material from reaching the ditch and Tan Yard Hollow Road. Any permits will be obtained prior to construction. No trees (equal to or greater than 5-inch breast height) will be disturbed outside of the winter clearing season (October 15 - March 31th), with the exception of those in the slide and transition areas. A Phase II project will follow to address the remaining slide that is impacting the property and roads below.
