This project shall consist of providing all labor and material necessary to resurface the tipping floor with asphalt at the Waste to Energy Facility. The dimensions of the floor are an approximation and are shown in Exhibit A. The County seeks proposals that would increase durability and longevity of the paving project at a competitive price, so the following recommendations have been suggested. Alternative solutions may be considered. o Target Airvoid in mixture is to be no more than 3% o To ensure adhesion to any exposed concrete, a tack cote shall be applied prior to initial paving coat. o Mixture to contain less than 15% recycled asphalt content o Mixture liquid to be PG64-28 to be both hard and flexible. o Sealant to be applied following the wear course to prevent oil and salt penetration into porous openings of wear coat. • The material to be used shall be MDOT classified as Bituminous Mixture 3C (2”) as a base course and 4EML (1-1/2 “) as a wear course. All material shall conform to the most recent edition of MDOT Standard Specifications of Construction. • The Bituminous mixture shall be placed directly upon the milled subbase. Placement must be in accordance with MDOT Standard Specifications for Construction. Page 2 of 4 • Milling of existing pavement should result in a sloped surface to ensure drainage is towards refuse pit. Milling should not be below concrete. • All Millings created during execution of the contract are to be disposed of by the contractor. • Paving and milling to be directly up to the steel bumper curbs at the edge of the refuse pit. • Work may begin after 5pm Friday and must be ready for truck traffic prior to 5 am Monday. • Facility moves and handles waste 24/7, if milling is completed Friday and is not immediately paved, it is highly likely that there will be light (fluffy) waste on the milled surface the following morning. It will be necessary to use a blower to return the waste to the refuse pit.
