General:The total surface area of the reinforced concrete bridge deck shall be completely

prepared by Hydrodemolition as necessary to provide a highly roughened and bondable surface prior to

placement of the proposed bridge deck overlay while removing any deteriorated and unsound concrete

in the initial pass. Unsound concrete is defined as existing bridge deck concrete that is deteriorated,

spalled, or determined by the engineer to be unsound.

With the use of Hydrodemolition surface preparation, the requirement to provide a minimum ¼”

clearance around all reinforcing bars that are more than ½” diameter exposed is waived, providing that

the existing concrete is sound. The amount of steel exposed shall be kept to a minimum.

Damaged or dislodged reinforcing steel shall be repaired or replaced at the Contractor's expense.

Replacement shall include the removal of any additional concrete required to position the new

reinforcing steel at the correct height and to provide the required lap splice lengths as required.

Calibration:Prior to commencement of the Hydrodemolition removal operation, the

Hydrodemolition equipment shall be calibrated on an existing sound concrete surface as designated by

the Engineer. The calibration area shall be a minimum of 7 feet wide by 7 feet long to demonstrate the

desired result of this specification.

Move the Hydrodemolition equipment to a second area (7’x7’) that is unsound as designated by the

Engineer to demonstrate the desired result of this specification which is providing a highly rough and

bondable surface and removing all unsound concrete during the initial pass is being achieved.

The Engineer shall verify the following settings:

1. Water pressure gauge (13,000 psi minimum)

2. Machine staging control (step)

3. Nozzle size

4. Nozzle speed (travel)

5. Depth of removal

6. Minimum water usage (43 gallons per minute)

During the Hydrodemolition operations of any or all of the above settings may be modified in order

to achieve removal of all unsound concrete and to provide a highly bondable surface. The settings may

be changed by the Contractor to achieve total removal of unsound concrete, but the Engineer must be

notified of all changes. The Engineer may change any or all of the settings in order to achieve the desired

results with Hydrodemolition. The removals and depth shall be verified, as necessary, and at least every

calibrated to insure the Hydrodemolition process achieves the desired results and removal of unsound

concrete.

Calibration shall be required on each structure; each time Hydrodemolition is performed and as

required to achieve the results specified by the plan.

Debris and Fluid Containment:Prior to commencement of the Hydrodemolition operation, the

Contractor shall submit a plan for approval to the engineer for control and filtering of all water

discharged during operation. The Contractor, at a minimum, shall block all drains on the deck and install

aggregate dams every 150 feet; 6 inches high by 1 foot wide minimum, to strain runoff. The deck shall

be used as a settlement basin within itself unless an alternate method of water control, satisfactory to

the Engineer and meeting the environmental requirements of any associated Regulatory Agency, is

required.

The Contractor shall provide shielding, as necessary, to insure containment of all dislodged concrete

within the removal area in order to protect the public from flying debris both on and under the work

site.

Cleaning

Cleaning shall be performed with a vacuum system capable of removing wet debris and water all in

the same pass. The vacuum equipment shall be capable of washing the deck with pressurized water

prior to the vacuum operation to dislodge all debris and slurry from the deck surface. Cleaning shall be

done in a timely manner, before debris and water is allowed to dry on the deck surface.

Resounding

After the Hydrodemolition operation has completed the removal, and the deck is cleaned and

allowed to dry, the deck shall be resounded to assure that the all unsound concrete deck material has

been removed. The final sounding of the deck shall be done by the Engineer and shall be performed

only when the entire deck is completely dry.In no case shall the final sounding be made unless the deck

is dry and frost-free. Final sounding shall consist of as many successive resounding as required to ensure

that all deteriorated and fractured concrete has been removed. Additional removal shall be performed

with 35 lb maximum weight jackhammers operated at an angle of no more than 45 degrees from

horizontal. Aerosol spray paint for outlining and sounding chains shall be provided by the Contractor.

Full Depth Repair

Where the deck is sound for less than one third of its original depth, the concrete shall be removed

full depth except for limited areas as may be designated by the Engineer. Forms shall be provided to

support concrete placed in full depth repair areas. The forms for areas of up to 4 square feet may be

suspended from wires from the reinforcing steel. For areas greater than 4 square feet, the forms shall be

701.03.08 Inspection of Pipe. The engineer will visually inspect all pipe.

The Department will

require camera/video inspection on a minimum of 50 percent of the linear feet of all installed pipe

structures.

Conduct camera/video inspection according to KM 64-

114. The pipe to be installed under

pavement will be selected first. If the total linear feet of pipe under pavement is less than 50 percent of

the linear feet of all pipe installed, the Engineer will randomly select installations from the remaining

pipe structures on the project to provide for the minimum inspection requirement. The pipe will be

selected in complete runs (junction

-junction or headwall-

headwall) until the total linear feet of pipe to be

inspected is at least 50 percent of the total linear feet of all installed pipe on the project.

Unless the Engineer directs otherwise, schedule the inspections no sooner than 30 days after

completing the installation and completion of earthwork to within 1 foot of the finished subgrade. When

final surfacing conflicts with the 30

-day minimum, conduct the inspections prior to placement of the

final surface. The contractor must ensure that all pipe are free and clear of any debris so that a complete

inspection is possible.

Notify the Engineer immediately if distresses or locations of improper installation are discovered.

When camera testing shows distresses or improper installation in the installed pipe, the Engineer may

require addit

ional sections to be tested. Provide the video and report to the Engineer when testing is

complete in accordance with KM 64

-114.

Pipes that exhibit distress or signs of improper installation may necessitate repair or removal as the

Engineer directs. These signs include, but are not limited to: deflection, cracking, joint separation,

sagging or other interior damage. If corrugated metal or thermoplastic pipes exceed the deflection and

installation thresholds indicated in the table below, provide the Department with an evaluation of each

location conducted by a Professional Engineer addressing the severity of the deflection

, structural

integrity, environmental conditions, design service life, and an evaluation of the factor of safety using

Section 12, “Buried Structures and Tunnel Liners,” of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design

Specifications. Based on the evaluation, the Departme

nt may allow the pipe to remain in place at a

reduced unit price as shown in the table below. Provide 5 business days for the Department to review the

evaluation. When the pipe shows deflection of 10 percent or greater, remove and replace the pipe. When

the camera/video or laser inspection results are called into question, the Department may require direct

measurements or mandrel testing.

The Cabinet may elect to conduct Quality Assurance verifications of any pipe inspections.

performed due to a disagreement or suspicion of additional distresses and the Department is found in

error, the Department will measure the quantity as Extra Work according to Subsection 104.03.

However, if additional dist

resses or non-conformance is found, the Department will not measure the

additional inspection for payment.

KRS CHAPTER 344

EFFECTIVE JUNE 16, 1972

The contract on this project, in accordance with KRS

Chapter 344, provides that during the performance of this

contract, the contractor agrees as follows:

1. The contractor shall not fail or refuse to hire, or

shall not discharge any individual, or otherwise discriminate

against an individual with respect to his compensation, terms,

conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such

individual's race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability

or age (between forty and seventy); or limit, segregate, or

classify his employees in any way which would deprive or

tend to deprive an individual of employment opportunities or

otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because

of such individual's race, color, religion, national origin, sex,

disability or age (between forty and seventy). The contractor

agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees

and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting

forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.

2. The contractor shall not print or publish or cause

to be printed or published a notice or advertisement relating to

employment by such an employer or membership in or any

agency, indicating any preference, limitation, specification, or

discrimination, based on race, color, religion, national origin,

sex, disability or age (between forty and seventy), except that

such notice or advertisement may indicate a preference,

limitation, or specification based on religion, or national origin

when religion, or national origin is a bona fide occupational

qualification for employment.

3. If the contractor is in control of apprenticeship or

other training or retraining, including on-the-job training

programs, he shall not discriminate against an individual

because of his race, color, religion, national origin, sex,

disability or age (between forty and seventy), in admission to,

or employment in any program established to provide

apprenticeship or other training.

4. The contractor will send to each labor union or

representative of workers with which he has a collective

bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a

notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers'

representative of the contractor's commitments under this

section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous

places available to employees and applicants for employment.

subcontract or purchase order as the administrating agency

may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including

sanctions for non-compliance.

III. PAYMENT OF PREDETERMINED MINIMUM

WAGES

1. These special provisions are supplemented

elsewhere in the contract by special provisions which set forth

certain predetermined minimum wage rates. The contractor

shall pay not less than those rates.

Contract ID: 122908

Page 64 of 74

records and information which will aid in determining the true

facts relating to the reported violations.

Any person or organization aggrieved by the action

taken or the findings established as a result of an informal

hearing by the Division of Contract Procurement may request

a formal hearing.

4. The wages of labor shall be paid in legal tender of

the United States, except that this condition will be considered

satisfied if payment is made by a negotiable check, on a

solvent bank, which may be cashed readily by the employee in

except in accordance with the classification set forth in the

schedule mentioned above; provided, however, that in the

event additional classifications are required, application shall

be made by the contractor to the Department of Highways and

(1) the Department shall request appropriate classifications

and rates from the proper agency, or (2) if there is urgent need

for additional classification to avoid undue delay in the work,

the contractor may employ such workmen at rates deemed

comparable to rates established for similar classifications

provided he has made written application through the

Department of Highways, addressed to the proper agency, for

the supplemental rates. The contractor shall retroactively

adjust, upon receipt of the supplemental rates schedule, the

wages of any employee paid less than the established rate and

may adjust the wages of any employee overpaid.

part of the contract work which may require or involve the

employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit

any laborer or mechanic in any work-week in which he is

employed on such work, to work in excess of eight hours in

any calendar day or in excess of forty hours in such work-

week unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation

at a rate not less than one and one half times his basic rate of

pay for all hours worked in excess of eight hours in any

calendar day or in excess of forty hours in such work-week. A

laborer, workman or mechanic and an employer may enter

into a written agreement or a collective bargaining agreement

to work more than eight (8) hours a calendar day but not more

than ten (10) hours a calendar day for the straight time hourly

rate. This agreement shall be in writing and shall be executed

prior to the employee working in excess of eight (8) hours, but

not more than ten (10) hours, in any one (1) calendar day.

12. Payments to the contractor may be suspended or

withheld due to failure of the contractor to pay any laborer or

mechanic employed or working on the site of the work, all or

part of the wages required under the terms of the contract.

The Department may suspend or withhold payments only after

the contractor has been given written notice of the alleged

violation and the contractor has failed to comply with the

wage determination of the Department of Highways.

13. Contractors and subcontractors shall comply

with the sections of Kentucky Revised Statutes, Chapter 337

relating to contracts for Public Works.

EXECUTIVE BRANCH CODE OF ETHICS

In the 1992 regular legislative session, the General Assembly passed and Governor Brereton Jones signed

Senate Bill 63 (codified as KRS 11A), the Executive Branch Code of Ethics, which states, in part:

KRS 11A.040 (6) provides:

No present or former public servant shall, within six (6) months of following termination of his office or

employment, accept employment, compensation or other economic benefit from any person or business

that contracts or does business with the state in matters in which he was directly involved during his

tenure. This provision shall not prohibit an individual from returning to the same business, firm,

occupation, or profession in which he was involved prior to taking office or beginning his term of

employment, provided that, for a period of six (6) months, he personally refrains from working on any

matter in which he was directly involved in state government. This subsection shall not prohibit the

performance of ministerial functions, including, but not limited to, filing tax returns, filing applications

for permits or licenses, or filing incorporation papers.

KRS 11A.040 (8) states:

A former public servant shall not represent a person in a matter before a state agency in which the

former public servant was directly involved, for a period of one (1) year after the latter of:

a) The date of leaving office or termination of employment; or

b) The date the term of office expires to which the public servant was elected.

This law is intended to promote public confidence in the integrity of state government and to declare as public

policy the idea that state employees should view their work as a public trust and not as a way to obtain private

benefits.

If you have worked for the executive branch of state government within the past six months, you may be subject

to the law's prohibitions. The law's applicability may be different if you hold elected office or are

contemplating representation of another before a state agency.

Also, if you are affiliated with a firm which does business with the state and which employs former state

executive-branch employees, you should be aware that the law may apply to them.

In case of doubt, the law permits you to request an advisory opinion from the Executive Branch Ethics

Commission, Room 136, Capitol Building, 700 Capitol Avenue, Frankfort, Kentucky 40601; telephone (502)

564-7954.

EMPLOYEE RIGHTS

UNDER THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT

THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR WAGE AND HOUR DIVISION

FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGE

At least 1 times your regular rate of pay for all hours worked over 40 in a workweek.

An employee must be at least 16 years old to work in most non-farm jobs and at least

18 to work in non-farm jobs declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor.

Youths 14 and 15 years old may work outside school hours in various non-manufactur-

ing, non-mining, non-hazardous jobs under the following conditions:

No more than

• 3hours on a school day or 18 hours in a school week;

• 8hours on a non-school day or 40 hours in a non-school week.

Also, work may not begin before 7 a.m. or end after 7 p.m., except from June 1

through Labor Day, when evening hours are extended to 9 p.m. Different rules

apply in agricultural employment.

Employers of “tipped employees” must pay a cash wage of at least $2.13 per hour if

they claim a tip credit against their minimum wage obligation. If an employee's tips

combined with the employer's cash wage of at least $2.13 per hour do not equal the

minimum hourly wage, the employer must make up the difference. Certain other

conditions must also be met.

The Department of Labor may recover back wages either administratively or through

court action, for the employees that have been underpaid in violation of the law.

Violations may result in civil or criminal action.

Employers may be assessed civil money penalties of up to $1,100 for each willful or

repeated violation of the minimum wage or overtime pay provisions of the law and up

to $11,000 for each employee who is the subject of a violation of the Act’s child labor

provisions. In addition, a civil money penalty of up to $50,000 may be assessed for each

child labor violation that causes the death or serious injury of any minor employee, and

such assessments may be doubled, up to $100,000, when the violations are determined

to be willful or repeated. The law also prohibits discriminating against or discharging

workers who file a complaint or participate in any proceeding under the Act.

• Certain occupations and establishments are exempt from the minimum wage and/or

overtime pay provisions.

• Special provisions apply to workers in American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the

Northern Mariana Islands.

• Some state laws provide greater employee protections; employers must comply with both.

• The law requires employers to display this poster where employees can readily see it.

• Employees under 20 years of age may be paid $4.25 per hour during their first 90

consecutive calendar days of employment with an employer.

• Certain full-time students, student learners, apprentices, and workers with disabilities

may be paid less than the minimum wage under special certificates issued by the

Department of Labor.
