CoNTRACTOR'S QUALTFTCATTON STATEM ENT
(RCW 39.O4.35O)
THE CITY WILL REVIEW THE CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSES TO THIS FORM TO
DETERMINE WHETHER THE BIDDING CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE TO
PERFORM THE CONTRACT WORK. THIS FORM INCLUDES CRITERIA
ESTABLISHED BY STATE LAW THAT MUST BE MET TO BE CONSIDERED A
RESPONSIB LE BIDDER AND QUALIFIED TO BE AWARDED THIS PUBLIC
WORKS PROJECT AS WELL AS ST'PPLEMENTAL CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY
THE CITY THAT ARE APPLICABLE TO THIS PUBLIC WORKS PRO]ECT.
THE BIDDER SHOULD READ AND RESPOAID TO THIS FORM CAREFULLY'
Indicia of contractor's responsibility inherently involve subjective determinations as to
the contractor's ability to perform and complete the contract work responsibly and to
the owner city's satisfaction. The city has an obligation and a duty to its citizens and
its taxpayers to administer its budgets and complete its projects in a businesslike
manner. Accordingly, it has a duty to exercise the type of inquiry and discretion a
business would conduct when selecting a contractor who will be responsible to
perform the contract work.
The city's supplemental criteria are based, in large part, on the qualification statement
form used by the American Institute of Architects. The city provides these criteria so
as to provide the most objective framework possible within which the city will make its
decision regarding the bidder's ability to be responsible to perform the contract work.
These criteria, taken together, will form the basis for the city's decision that a bidder
is or is not responsible to perform the contract work.
Any bidder may make a formal written request to the city to modify the criteria set
forth in this qualification statement, but that request may only be made within 48
hours of the date and time that the bidder first obtains the bid documents or three (3)
business days prior to the scheduled bid opening date, whichever occurs first' If the
city receives a modification request, it will consider any information submitted in the
request and will respond before the bid submittal deadline. If the city's evaluation
results in changed criteria, the city will issue an addendum establishing the new or
modified criteria.
If the city determines that, based on the criteria established in this statement, a
bidder is not responsible to perform the contract work, the city will provide written
notice of its determination that will include the city's reason for its decision' The
bidder has 24 hours from the time the city delivers written notice to the bidder that
the bidder is not responsible to perform the contract work to appeal the city's
determination, No appeals will be received after the expiration of this 24 hour appeal
period. The city may deliver this notice by hand delivery, email, facsimile, or regular
mail. In the event the city uses regular mail, the delivery will be deemed complete
three days after being placed in the U.S. Mail. The bidder's right to appeal is limited to
the single remedy of providing the city with additional information to be considered
before the city issues a final determination. Bidder acknowledges and understands
that, as provided by RCW 39.04,350, no other appeal is allowed and no other remedy
of any kind or nature is available to the bidding contractor if the City determines that
the bidder is not responsible to perform the contract work.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln
Project Number: 13-3007.5
22 May 24,2021
If the bidder fails to request a modification within the time allowed, or fails to appeal a
determination that the bidder is not responsible within the time allowed, the city will
make its determination of bidder responsibility based on the information submitted.
COMPLETE AND STGil THIS FORM AS PART OF YOUR BID. FAILURE TO
PROPERLY COMPLETE THIS FORM MAY ALSO RESI'LT IN A DETERMINATION
THAT YOUR BID IS A'OAI-RESPONSIVE AND THEREFORE VOID,
THIS DOCUMENT HAS IMPORTANT LEGAL CONSEQUENCES: CONSULTATION
WITH AN ATTORNEY TS ENCOURAGED WITH RESPECT TO ITS COMPLETION
OR MODIFICATION.
The undersigned certifies under oath that the information provided herein is true and

the City’s rights provided by this section nor shall the exercise of this
right diminish the City’s right to pursue any other remedy available
under law with respect to the Contractor’s failure to perform the work
as required.
DIVISION 1 IS SUPPLEMENTED BY ADDING THE FOLLOWING NEW SECTIONS:
1-05.8 City Provided Construction Staking
1-05.8(1) General
As used in this Section 1-05.5, the words, “stake,” “mark,” “marker,” or
“monument” will be deemed to include any kind of survey marking,
whether or not set by the City.
The City will supply construction stakes and marks establishing lines,
slopes and grades as set forth in Sections 1-05.8(2) through 1-05.8(6)
of the Kent Special Provisions. The Contractor shall assume full
responsibility for detailed dimensions, elevations, and excavation slopes
measured from these City furnished stakes and marks.
The Contractor shall provide a work site clear of equipment, stockpiles
and obstructions which has been prepared and maintained to permit
construction staking to proceed in a safe and orderly manner. A City
survey crew can stake a finite amount of work in a single day (see
Section 1-05.8(6) of the Kent Special Provisions). The Contractor shall
provide staking requests for a reasonable amount of work to the
Engineer at least 3 working days in advance to allow the survey crew
adequate time for setting stakes. If the work site is obstructed so that
survey work cannot be done, a new request for work shall be submitted
by the Contractor so that the survey can be rescheduled once the site is
properly prepared. Up to an additional 3 working days may be required
depending on work load for the city survey crew to complete the
rescheduled work. Note: A surveyor working day is a consecutive eight
hour period between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday,
except holidays as listed in Section 1-08.5.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 10 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
It is illegal under Revised Code of Washington 58.09.130 and
Washington State Administrative Code 332-120 to willfully destroy
survey markers. Stakes, marks, and other reference points set by City
forces, and existing City, State or Federal monumentation, shall be
carefully preserved by the Contractor. The Contractor shall notify the
Engineer immediately if it becomes apparent that a survey marker will
be disturbed due to construction. The Contractor will allow ample time
for City Survey Department personnel to acquire adequate information
so that the monument may be replaced in its original position after
construction. If the City is not notified, and a stake, marker or
monument is disturbed or destroyed the Contractor will be charged at a
rate of $300/hour for a city survey crew to replace the stake, marker or
monument that was not to be disturbed or damaged by the Contractor’s
operations. This charge will be deducted from monies due or to become
due to the Contractor.
Any claim by the Contractor for extra compensation by reason of
alterations or reconstruction work allegedly due to error in the
Surveyor’s line and grade will not be allowed unless the original control
points set by the Surveyor still exist, or unless the Contractor can
provide other satisfactory substantiating evidence to prove the error
was caused by incorrect city-furnished survey data. Three consecutive
points set on line or grade shall be the minimum points used to
determine any variation from a straight line or grade. Any such
variation shall, upon discovery, be reported to the Engineer. In the
absence of such report, the Contractor shall be liable for any error in
alignment or grade.
1-05.8(2) Environmental Surveys
The Engineer shall furnish to the Contractor, one time only, all principal lines,
grades and measurements the Engineer deems necessary for completion of the
work. The Engineer shall provide a design CAD file used in creating the plan
set of the work being completed in the City of Kent’s currently used horizontal
and vertical datums. The CAD file shall be in a final state reflecting the final
layers represented in the final plan set issued for construction.
1-05.8(3) Control Stakes
Stakes that constitute reference points for all construction work will be
conspicuously marked with an appropriate color of flagging tape. It will be the
responsibility of the Contractor to inform its employees and subcontractors of
the importance and necessity to preserve the stakes.
The Contractor shall determine appropriate construction stake offset distances
to prevent damage to stakes by its construction equipment. Should it become
necessary, for any reason, to replace these control stakes, the Contractor will
be charged at the rate of $300/hour for a city survey crew to replace the
stakes. The Contractor may not charge the City for any standby or “down”
time as a result of any replacement of control stakes. If the removal of a
control stake or monument is required by the construction operations of the
Contractor or its subcontractors, and advance notice of at least three (3) full
working days is given to the City, the City will reference, remove, and later
replace the stakes or monument at no cost to the Contractor.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 11 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
1-05.8(4) Roadway and Utility Surveys
The Engineer shall furnish to the Contractor, one time only, all principal
lines, grades and measurements the Engineer deems necessary for
completion of the work. These shall generally consist of one initial set
of:
1. Cut or fill stakes for establishing grade and embankments,
2. Curb or gutter grade stakes,
3. Centerline finish grade stakes for pavement sections wider than 25
feet as set forth in Section 1-05.8(5), subsection 2, and
4. Offset points to establish line and grade for underground utilities
such as water, sewers, storm drains, illumination and signalization.

centerline stakes.
On alley construction projects with minor grade changes, the Engineer
shall provide offset hubs on one side of the alley to establish the
alignment and grade. Alleys with major grade changes shall have
embankments staked to establish grade before offset hubs are set.
1-05.8(5) Bridge, Structure and Retaining Wall Surveys
For all structural work such as bridges and retaining walls, the
Contractor shall retain as a part of Contractor organization an
experienced team of surveyors under direct supervision of a licensed
surveyor. The Contractor shall ensure that required field measurements
and locations match the plan dimensions. The Contractor shall provide
all surveys required to complete the structure, except the following
primary survey control which will be provided by the City.
1. Sufficient horizontal control points to allow the Contractor to
establish centerline, abutments and pier centerline positioning and
stationing.
2. Up to 6 bench marks in close proximity to the work area.
3. Permanent monuments as shown on the drawings or as given by
the City.
The Contractor shall establish all secondary survey controls, both
horizontal and vertical, as necessary to assure proper placement of all
project elements based on the primary control points provided by the
City. Survey work shall be within the following tolerances:
1. Stationing +.01 foot
2. Alignment +0.1 foot (between successive points)
3. Superstructure Elevations +0.1 foot (from plan elevations)
4. Substructure Elevations +0.5 foot (from plan elevations)
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 12 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
During the progress of the work, the Contractor shall make available to
the City all filed books including survey information, footing elevations,
cross sections and quantities.
The Contractor shall be fully responsible for the close coordination of
field locations and measurements within appropriate dimensions of
structural members being fabricated.

conspicuously marked with an appropriate color of flagging tape. It will
be the responsibility of the Contractor to inform its employees and
subcontractors of the importance and necessity to preserve the stakes.
The Contractor shall determine appropriate construction stake offset
distances to prevent damage to stakes by its construction equipment.
Should it become necessary, for any reason, to replace these control
stakes, the Contractor will be charged at the rate of $300/hour for a
city survey crew to replace the stakes. The Contractor may not charge
the City for any standby or “down” time as a result of any replacement
of control stakes. If the removal of a control stake or monument is
required by the construction operations of the Contractor or its
subcontractors, and advance notice of at least three (3) full working
days is given to the City, the City will reference, remove, and later
replace the stakes or monument at no cost to the Contractor.
1-05.8(7) Staking Services
Work requests must be made at least 3 working days in advance
of the required staking.
The City will furnish the following stakes and reference marks:
1. Clearing Limits - One set of clearing limit stakes will be set at
approximately 25-foot stations where needed.
2. Rough Grading - One set of rough grade stakes will be set along
the construction centerline of streets at 50-foot stations as
required. (If superelevations require intermediate stakes along
vertical curves, the City will provide staking at closer intervals.)
One set of primary cut and fill stakes will be set for site work. One
set of secondary final grade cut and fill stakes will be set where
deemed applicable as determined by the Engineer.
3. Storm Sewers - Two cut or fill stakes for each inlet, catch basin or
manhole will be set at appropriate offsets to the center of the
structure. After installation and backfill, inverts will be checked for

Project Number: 13-3007.5
5. Water Main - One set of line stakes will be furnished for water
mains at 50-foot stations. Additionally, two reference stakes for
each valve, hydrant, tee and angle point location will be set
concurrently with these line stakes.
6. Staking for Embankments - Catch points and one line stake will be
set in those cases where the vertical difference in elevation from
the construction centerline to the toe or top of a cut or fill slope
exceeds 3 feet. In all other areas, stakes shall be set at an
appropriate offset to the street centerline to allow for the
preservation of said offsets through the rough grading phase. In
both cases the stakes shall be clearly marked with appropriate
information necessary to complete the rough grading phase.
7. Curb and Gutters - One set of curb and gutter stakes shall be set
at an appropriate offset at 25-foot intervals, beginning and end
points of curves and curb returns, wheelchair ramps, driveways,
and sufficient mid-curve points to establish proper alignment.
8. Base and Top Course - One set of final construction centerline
grade hubs will be set for each course, at not less than 50-foot
stations. No intermediate stakes shall be provided unless
superelevations require them. In those circumstances, one grade
hub left and right of construction centerline at the transition
stations will be set at an appropriate offset to centerline not less
than 25-foot stations.
9. Adjacent or Adjoining Wetlands - One set of stakes delineating
adjacent wetland perimeters will be set at 25 to 50-foot stations as
required.
10. Illumination and Traffic Signals System - One set of stakes for
luminaires and traffic signal pole foundations will be set as
required. One set of stakes for vaults, junction boxes, and conduits
will be set, only if curb and gutter is not in place at the time of the
survey request. If curb and gutter is in place, staking for vaults,
junction boxes, and conduits will be provided at an additional
expense to the Contractor.
When deemed appropriate by the Engineer, cut sheets will be supplied
for curb, storm, sanitary sewer and water lines. Cuts or fills may be
marked on the surveyed points but should not be relied on as accurate
until a completed cut sheet is supplied.
The Contractor, at its own expense, shall stake all other items not listed
above to construct the project per the Plans and Specifications. Staking
for channelization, traffic loops, and all other items not listed above
shall be the sole responsibility and expense of the Contractor. The City
may, at its sole discretion, provide additional staking at the request of
the Contractor at the rate of $300/hour.
1-05.8(8) Survey Requests
It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to properly schedule survey
crews and coordinate staking requests with construction activities. A
survey crew may be reasonably expected to stake any one of the
following items, in the quantity shown, in a single day:
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 14 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
Roadway grading +/-1500 lineal feet of centerline
Storm or sanitary sewer Approximately 8-10 structures
Water main +/-1500 lineal feet of pipe
Curb and gutter +/-1300 lineal feet (one side only)
Base and top course +/-1000 lineal feet of centerline
Slope staking +/-800-1200 lineal feet (top and toe)
Illumination/signalization Approximately 15-20 structures
Actual quantities may vary based on the complexity of the project, line
of sight considerations, traffic interference, properly prepared work site,
and other items that could affect production.
The Contractor shall be aware that length does not always translate
directly into stationing. For example, a survey request for storm sewer
pipe from Station 3+00 to 8+00 is 500 lineal feet in length. There may
be 1000 lineal feet, or more, of storm sewer pipe, if the pipe is placed
on both sides of the roadway and interconnected.

complete and operable system. Therefore when the work involves the
installation of machinery or other mechanical equipment, street
lighting, electrical distribution of signal systems, building or other
similar work, it may be desirable for the Engineer to have the
Contractor operate and test the work for a period of time after final
inspection but prior to the Physical Completion Date.
Whenever items of work are listed in the contract provisions for
operational testing they shall be fully tested under operating conditions
for the time period specified to ensure their acceptability prior to the
Physical Completion Date. In the event the contract does not specify
testing time periods, the default testing time period shall be twenty-one
(21) calendar days.
During and following the test period, the Contractor shall correct any
items of workmanship, materials, or equipment that prove faulty or that
are not in first class operating condition. Equipment, electrical controls,
meters, or other devices and equipment to be tested during this period
shall be tested under the observation of the Engineer, so that the
Engineer may determine their suitability for the purpose for which they
were installed. The Physical Completion Date cannot be established
until testing and corrections have been completed to the satisfaction of
the Engineer.
The costs for power, gas, labor, material, supplies, and everything else
needed to successfully complete operational testing shall be included in

hours, but may be subject to other conditions established by the City or
Engineer. These conditions may include, but are not limited to the
following: hours worked by City employees; impacts to the construction
schedule; or accommodations to adjoining properties affected by the
contract work.
1-08.4(A) Reimbursement for Overtime Work of City Employees
Following is a non-exclusive list of work that may require Contractor
reimbursement for overtime of City employees. The City will bill the
Contractor at the OVERTIME RATE in order for locate crews to
complete other work. If the locate request is for nights, weekend,
holidays or at other times when locate crews are not normally working,
all locate work and expenses, including travel, minimum call out times,
and/or Holiday premiums will be borne by the Contractor.
1. Locate work required to re-establish marks for City-owned
underground facilities that were not maintained or recorded by the
Contractor in accordance with RCW 19.122.030.
2. Work required by city survey crew(s) as the result of reestablishing
survey stakes or markings that were not maintained or recorded
by the Contractor or other work deemed to be for the convenience
of the Contractor and not required of the City by the contract.

laboratories to re-test project materials, utility pressure or vacuum
tests, camera surveys or water purity tests as the result of initial
test failure on the part of the Contractor.
1-08.4(B) General
The City allocates its resources to a contract based on the total time
allowed in the contract. The City will accept a progress schedule
indicating an early physical completion date but cannot guarantee the
City resources will be available to meet the accelerated schedule. No
additional compensation will be allowed if the Contractor is not able to
meet its accelerated schedule due to the unavailability of City resources
or for other reasons beyond the City's control.
Unless previously approved by the Engineer, the original and all
supplemental progress schedules shall not conflict with any time and
order-of-work requirements in the contract.
If the Engineer deems that the original or any necessary supplemental
progress schedule does not provide adequate information, the City may
withhold progress payments until a schedule containing needed
information has been submitted by the Contractor and approved by the
Engineer.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 28 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
The Engineer's acceptance of any schedule shall not transfer any of the

remain responsible for adjusting forces, equipment, and work schedules
to ensure completion of the work within the times specified in the
contract.
SECTION 1-08.5 IS REVISED BY DELETING THE THIRD PARAGRAPH AND
REPLACING WITH THE FOLLOWING:
1-08.5 Time for Completion
Contract time shall begin on the day of the Notice to Proceed. The
Contract Provisions may specify another starting date for Contract time,
in which case, time will begin on the starting date specified.
SECTION 1-08.6 IS REVISED BY DELETING THE FIFTH, SIXTH, AND SEVENTH
PARAGRAPHS AND REPLACING WITH THE FOLLOWING:
1-08.6 Suspension of Work
If the performance of all or any part of the Work is suspended for an
unreasonable period of time by an act of the Contracting Agency in the
administration of the Contract, or by failure to act within the time
specified in the Contract (or if no time is specified, within a reasonable
time), the Engineer will make an adjustment for any increase in the
cost or time for the performance of the Contract (excluding profit)
necessarily caused by the suspension. However, no adjustment will be
made for any suspension if (1) the performance would have been
suspended by any other cause, including the fault or negligence of the
Contractor, or (2) an equitable adjustment is provided for or excluded
under any other provision of the Contract.
If the Contactor believes that the performance of the Work is
suspended for an unreasonable period of time and such suspension is
the responsibility of the Contracting Agency, the Contractor shall
immediately submit a written notice of protest to the Engineer as
provided in Section 1-04.5. No adjustment shall be allowed for any
costs incurred more than 10 calendar days before the date the Engineer
receives the Contractor’s written notice to protest. In any event, no
protest will be allowed later than the date of the Contractor’s signature
on the Final Pay Estimate. The Contractor shall keep full and complete
records of the costs and additional time of such suspension, and shall
permit the Engineer to have access to those records and any other
records as may be deemed necessary by the Engineer to assist in
evaluating the protest.
The Engineer will determine if an equitable adjustment in cost or time is
due as provided in this Section. The equitable adjustment for increase
in costs, if due, shall be subject to the limitations provided in Section
1-09.4, provided that no profit of any kind will be allowed on any
increase in cost necessarily caused by the suspension.

SECTION 1-08.7 MAINTENANCE DURING SUSPENSION IS REVISED BY
DELETING THE FOURTH AND SIXTH PARAGRAPHS.
SECTION 1-08.9 IS DELETED AND REPLACED WITH THE FOLLOWING:
1-08.9 Liquidated Damages
Time is of the essence of the Contract. Delays inconvenience the
traveling public, obstruct traffic, interfere with and delay commerce,
and increase risk to Highway users. Delays also cost tax-payers undue
sums of money, adding time needed for administration, engineering,
inspection, and supervision. Because the Contracting Agency finds it
impractical to calculate the actual cost of delays, it has adopted the
following formula to calculate liquidated damages for failure to complete
the physical Work of a Contract on time. Accordingly, the Contractor
agrees:
1. To pay (according to the following formula) liquidated damages for
each working day beyond the number of working days established
for Physical Completion, and
2. To authorize the Engineer to deduct these liquidated damages
from any money due or coming due to the Contractor.
Liquidated Damages Formula
LD = (0.15C)/T
Where:
LD = liquidated damages per working day (rounded to the nearest
dollar)
C = original Contract amount
T = original time for Physical Completion
When the Contract Work has progressed to the extent that the
Contracting Agency has full use and benefit of the facilities, both from
the operational and safety standpoint, all the initial plantings are
completed and only minor incidental Work, replacement of temporary
substitute facilities, plant establishment periods, or correction or repair
remains to physically complete the total Contract, the Engineer may
determine the Contract Work is substantially complete. The Engineer
will notify the Contractor in writing of the Substantial Completion Date.
For overruns in Contract time occurring after the date so established,
the formula for liquidated damages shown above will not apply. For
overruns in Contract time occurring after the Substantial Completion
Date, liquidated damages shall be assessed on the basis of direct
engineering and related costs assignable to the project until the actual
Physical Completion Date of all the Contract Work. The Contractor shall
complete the remaining Work as promptly as possible. Upon request by
the Engineer, the Contractor shall furnish a written schedule for
completing the physical Work on the Contract. Liquidated damages will
not be assessed for any days for which an extension of time is granted.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 1 - 30 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
No deduction or payment of liquidated damages will, in any degree,
release the Contractor from further obligations and liabilities to
complete the entire Contract.
For Substantial Completion, SE Summit Landsberg shall be open to
vehicular traffic no later than Friday of August 26, 2022, ahead of the
first day of school for the Tahoma School District.

1-09.9 Payments
SECTION 1-09.9 IS SUPPLEMENTED BY ADDING THE FOLLOWING NEW
SECTION:
1-09.9(2) City’s Right to Withhold Certain Amounts
In addition to the amount that the City may otherwise retain under the
Contract, the City may withhold a sufficient amount of any payments
otherwise due to the Contractor, including nullifying the whole or part
of any previous payment, because of subsequently discovered evidence
or subsequent inspections that, in the City's judgment, may be
necessary to cover the following:
1. The cost of defective work not remedied.
2. Fees incurred for material inspection, and overtime engineering
and inspection for which the Contractor is obligated under this
Contract.
3. Fees and charges of public authorities or municipalities.
4. Liquidated damages.
5. Engineering and inspection fees beyond Completion Date.
6. Cost of City personnel to re-establish locate marks for City-owned
facilities that were not maintained by the Contractor in accordance
with RCW 19.122.030 (3).
7. Additional inspection, testing and lab fees for re-doing failed,
water, other utility tests.

5-04.3(4)A Crack Sealing
5-04.3(4)A1 General
When the Proposal includes a pay item for crack sealing, seal all cracks
¼ inch in width and greater.
Cleaning: Ensure that cracks are thoroughly clean, dry and free of all
loose and foreign material when filling with crack sealant material. Use
a hot compressed air lance to dry and warm the pavement surfaces
within the crack immediately prior to filling a crack with the sealant
material. Do not overheat pavement. Do not use direct flame dryers.
Routing cracks is not required.
Sand Slurry: For cracks that are to be filled with sand slurry,
thoroughly mix the components and pour the mixture into the cracks
until full. Add additional CSS-1 cationic emulsified asphalt to the sand
slurry as needed for workability to ensure the mixture will completely
fill the cracks. Strike off the sand slurry flush with the existing
pavement surface and allow the mixture to cure. Top off cracks that
were not completely filled with additional sand slurry. Do not place the
HMA overlay until the slurry has fully cured.
The sand slurry shall consist of approximately 20 percent CSS-1
emulsified asphalt, approximately 2 percent portland cement, water (if
required), and the remainder clean Class 1 or 2 fine aggregate per
Section 9-03.1(2). The components shall be thoroughly mixed and then
poured into the cracks and joints until full. The following day, any
cracks or joints that are not completely filled shall be topped off with
additional sand slurry. After the sand slurry is placed, the filler shall be
struck off flush with the existing pavement surface and allowed to cure.
The HMA overlay shall not be placed until the slurry has fully cured. The
requirements of Section 1-06 will not apply to the portland cement and
sand used in the sand slurry.

After the required amount of mineral materials, asphalt binder,
recycling agent and anti-stripping additives have been introduced into
the mixer the HMA shall be mixed until complete and uniform coating of
the particles and thorough distribution of the asphalt binder throughout
the mineral materials is ensured.
When discharged, the temperature of the HMA shall not exceed the
optimum mixing temperature by more than 25°F as shown on the
reference mix design report or as approved by the Engineer. Also, when
a WMA additive is included in the manufacture of HMA, the discharge
temperature of the HMA shall not exceed the maximum recommended
by the manufacturer of the WMA additive. A maximum water content of
2 percent in the mix, at discharge, will be allowed providing the water
causes no problems with handling, stripping, or flushing. If the water in
the HMA causes any of these problems, the moisture content shall be
reduced as directed by the Engineer.
Storing or holding of the HMA in approved storage facilities will be
permitted with approval of the Engineer, but in no event shall the HMA
be held for more than 24 hours. HMA held for more than 24 hours after
mixing shall be rejected. Rejected HMA shall be disposed of by the
Contractor at no expense to the Contracting Agency. The storage
facility shall have an accessible device located at the top of the cone or
about the third point. The device shall indicate the amount of material
in storage. No HMA shall be accepted from the storage facility when the
HMA in storage is below the top of the cone of the storage facility,
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 13 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
except as the storage facility is being emptied at the end of the
working shift.
Recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) utilized in the production of HMA shall
be sized prior to entering the mixer so that a uniform and thoroughly
mixed HMA is produced. If there is evidence of the recycled asphalt
pavement not breaking down during the heating and mixing of the
HMA, the Contractor shall immediately suspend the use of the RAP until
changes have been approved by the Engineer. After the required
amount of mineral materials, RAP, new asphalt binder and asphalt
rejuvenator have been introduced into the mixer the HMA shall be
mixed until complete and uniform coating of the particles and thorough
distribution of the asphalt binder throughout the mineral materials, and
RAP is ensured.
5-04.3(7) Spreading and Finishing
The mixture shall be laid upon an approved surface, spread, and struck
off to the grade and elevation established. HMA pavers complying with
Section 5-04.3(3) shall be used to distribute the mixture. Unless
otherwise directed by the Engineer, the nominal compacted depth of
any layer of any course shall not exceed the following:
HMA Class 1”
wearing course/final lift 0.17 feet
other courses 0.35 feet
HMA Class ¾” and HMA Class ½”
wearing course/final lift 0.17 feet
other courses 0.25 feet
HMA Class ⅜” 0.17 feet
On areas where irregularities or unavoidable obstacles make the use of
mechanical spreading and finishing equipment impractical, the paving
may be done with other equipment or by hand.
When more than one JMF is being utilized to produce HMA, the material
produced for each JMF shall be placed by separate spreading and
compacting equipment. The intermingling of HMA produced from more
than one JMF is prohibited. Each strip of HMA placed during a work shift
shall conform to a single JMF established for the class of HMA specified
unless there is a need to make an adjustment in the JMF.

of sand equivalent, uncompacted void content and fracture will be
evaluated in accordance with Section 3-04. Sampling and testing of
aggregates for HMA accepted by commercial evaluation will be at the
option of the Engineer.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 14 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
5-04.3(9) HMA Mixture Acceptance
Acceptance of HMA shall be as provided under nonstatistical, or
commercial evaluation.
Nonstatistical evaluation will be used for the acceptance of HMA unless
Commercial Evaluation is specified.
Commercial evaluation will be used for Commercial HMA and for other
classes of HMA in the following applications: sidewalks, road
approaches, ditches, slopes, paths, trails, gores, prelevel, temporary
pavement, and pavement repair. Other nonstructural applications of
HMA accepted by commercial evaluation shall be as approved by the
Engineer. Sampling and testing of HMA accepted by commercial
evaluation will be at the option of the Engineer.
The mix design will be the initial JMF for the class of HMA. The
Contractor may request a change in the JMF. Any adjustments to the
JMF will require the approval of the Engineer and may be made in
accordance with this section.
HMA Tolerances and Adjustments
1. Job Mix Formula Tolerances – The constituents of the mixture
at the time of acceptance shall be within tolerance. The tolerance
limits will be established as follows:
For Asphalt Binder and Air Voids (Va), the acceptance limits are
determined by adding the tolerances below to the approved JMF
values. These values will also be the Upper Specification Limit
(USL) and Lower Specification Limit (LSL) required in Section
1-06.2(2)D2
Property Non-Statistical Evaluation Commercial Evaluation
Asphalt Binder +/- 0.5% +/- 0.7%
Air Voids, Va 2.5% min. and 5.5% max N/A
For Aggregates in the mixture:
a. First, determine preliminary upper and lower acceptance
limits by applying the following tolerances to the approved
JMF.
Aggregate Percent Passing Non-Statistical

Project Number: 13-3007.5
values will be the upper and lower acceptance limits for
aggregates, as well as the USL and LSL required in Section
1-06.2(2)D2.
2. Job Mix Formula Adjustments – An adjustment to the aggregate
gradation or asphalt binder content of the JMF requires approval of
the Engineer. Adjustments to the JMF will only be considered if the
change produces material of equal or better quality and may
require the development of a new mix design if the adjustment
exceeds the amounts listed below.
a. Aggregates –2 percent for the aggregate passing the 1½″,
1″, ¾″, ½″, ⅜″, and the No. 4 sieves, 1 percent for
aggregate passing the No. 8 sieve, and 0.5 percent for the
aggregate passing the No. 200 sieve. The adjusted JMF shall
be within the range of the control points in Section
9-03.8(6).

5-04.3(9)C Mixture Acceptance – Nonstatistical Evaluation
HMA mixture which is accepted by Nonstatistical Evaluation will be
evaluated by the Contracting Agency by dividing the HMA tonnage into
lots.
5-04.3(9)C1 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation – Lots and Sublots
A lot is represented by randomly selected samples of the same mix
design that will be tested for acceptance. A lot is defined as the total
quantity of material or work produced for each Job Mix Formula placed.
Only one lot per JMF is expected. A sublot shall be equal to one day’s
production or 800 tons, whichever is less except that the final sublot
will be a minimum of 400 tons and may be increased to 1200 tons.
All of the test results obtained from the acceptance samples from a
given lot shall be evaluated collectively. If the Contractor requests a
change to the JMF that is approved, the material produced after the
change will be evaluated on the basis of the new JMF for the remaining
sublots in the current lot and for acceptance of subsequent lots. For a
lot in progress with a CPF less than 0.75, a new lot will begin at the
Contractor’s request after the Engineer is satisfied that material
conforming to the Specifications can be produced.
Sampling and testing for evaluation shall be performed on the
frequency of one sample per sublot.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 16 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
5-04.3(9)C2 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation Sampling
Samples for acceptance testing shall be obtained by the Contractor
when ordered by the Engineer. The Contractor shall sample the HMA
mixture in the presence of the Engineer and in accordance with
AASHTO T 168. A minimum of three samples should be taken for each
class of HMA placed on a project. If used in a structural application, at
least one of the three samples shall to be tested.
Sampling and testing HMA in a Structural application where quantities
are less than 400 tons is at the discretion of the Engineer.
For HMA used in a structural application and with a total project
quantity less than 800 tons but more than 400 tons, a minimum of one
acceptance test shall be performed. In all cases, a minimum of 3
samples will be obtained at the point of acceptance, a minimum of one
of the three samples will be tested for conformance to the JMF:
If the test results are found to be within specification
requirements, additional testing will be at the Engineer’s
discretion.
If test results are found not to be within specification
requirements, additional testing of the remaining samples to
determine a Composite Pay Factor (CPF) shall be performed.
5-04.3(9)C3 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation – Acceptance Testing
Testing of HMA for compliance of Va will be at the option of the
Contracting Agency. If tested, compliance of Va will use WSDOT SOP
731.
Testing for compliance of asphalt binder content will be by WSDOT FOP
for AASHTO T 308.
Testing for compliance of gradation will be by FOP for WAQTC T 27/T
11.
5-04.3(9)C4 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation – Pay Factors
For each lot of material falling outside the tolerance limits in
5-04.3(9), the Contracting Agency will determine a Composite Pay
Factor (CPF) using the following price adjustment factors:
Table of Price Adjustment Factors
Constituent Factor “f”
All aggregate passing: 1½″, 1″, ¾″, ½″, ⅜″ and No.4 sieves 2
All aggregate passing No. 8 sieve 15

Asphalt binder 40
Air Voids (Va) (where applicable) 20
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 17 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
Each lot of HMA produced under Nonstatistical Evaluation and having all
constituents falling within the tolerance limits of the job mix formula
shall be accepted at the unit Contract price with no further evaluation.
When one or more constituents fall outside the nonstatistical tolerance
limits in the Job Mix Formula shown in Table of Price Adjustment
Factors, the lot shall be evaluated in accordance with Section 1-06.2 to
determine the appropriate CPF. The nonstatistical tolerance limits will
be used in the calculation of the CPF and the maximum CPF shall be
1.00. When less than three sublots exist, backup samples of the
existing sublots or samples from the Roadway shall be tested to provide
a minimum of three sets of results for evaluation.
5-04.3(9)C5 Vacant
5-04.3(9)C6 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation – Price Adjustments
For each lot of HMA mix produced under Nonstatistical Evaluation when
the calculated CPF is less than 1.00, a Nonconforming Mix Factor
(NCMF) will be determined. The NCMF equals the algebraic difference of
CPF minus 1.00 multiplied by 60 percent. The total job mix compliance
price adjustment will be calculated as the product of the NCMF, the
quantity of HMA in the lot in tons, and the unit Contract price per ton of
mix.
If a constituent is not measured in accordance with these
Specifications, its individual pay factor will be considered 1.00 in
calculating the Composite Pay Factor (CPF).
5-04.3(9)C7 Mixture Nonstatistical Evaluation - Retests
The Contractor may request a sublot be retested. To request a retest,
the Contractor shall submit a written request within 7 calendar days
after the specific test results have been received. A split of the original
acceptance sample will be retested. The split of the sample will not be
tested with the same tester that ran the original acceptance test. The
sample will be tested for a complete gradation analysis, asphalt binder
content, and, at the option of the agency, Va. The results of the retest
will be used for the acceptance of the HMA in place of the original
sublot sample test results. The cost of testing will be deducted from any
monies due or that may come due the Contractor under the Contract at
the rate of $500 per sample.
5-04.3 (9)D Mixture Acceptance – Commercial Evaluation
If sampled and tested, HMA produced under Commercial Evaluation and
having all constituents falling within the tolerance limits of the job mix
formula shall be accepted at the unit Contract price with no further
evaluation. When one or more constituents fall outside the commercial
tolerance limits in the Job Mix Formula shown in 5-04.3(9), the lot shall
be evaluated in accordance with Section 1-06.2 to determine the
appropriate CPF. The commercial tolerance limits will be used in the
calculation of the CPF and the maximum CPF shall be 1.00. When less
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 18 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
than three sublots exist, backup samples of the existing sublots or
samples from the street shall be tested to provide a minimum of three
sets of results for evaluation.
For each lot of HMA mix produced and tested under Commercial
Evaluation when the calculated CPF is less than 1.00, a Nonconforming
Mix Factor (NCMF) will be determined. The NCMF equals the algebraic
difference of CPF minus 1.00 multiplied by 60 percent. The Job Mix
Compliance Price Adjustment will be calculated as the product of the
NCMF, the quantity of HMA in the lot in tons, and the unit Contract
price per ton of mix.
If a constituent is not measured in accordance with these
Specifications, its individual pay factor will be considered 1.00 in
calculating the Composite Pay Factor (CPF).
5-04.3(10) HMA Compaction Acceptance
HMA mixture accepted by nonstatistical evaluation that is used in traffic
lanes, including lanes for intersections, ramps, truck climbing, weaving,
and speed change, and having a specified compacted course thickness
greater than 0.10-foot, shall be compacted to a specified level of
relative density. The specified level of relative density shall be a
Composite Pay Factor (CPF) of not less than 0.75 when evaluated in
accordance with Section 1-06.2, using a LSL of 92.0 (minimum of 92
percent of the maximum density). The maximum density shall be
determined by WSDOT FOP for AASHTO T 729. The specified level of
density attained will be determined by the evaluation of the density of
the pavement. The density of the pavement shall be determined in
accordance with WSDOT FOP for WAQTC TM 8, except that gauge
correlation will be at the discretion of the Engineer, when using the
nuclear density gauge and WSDOT SOP 736 when using cores to
determine density.
Tests for the determination of the pavement density will be taken in
accordance with the required procedures for measurement by a nuclear
density gauge or roadway cores after completion of the finish rolling.
If the Contracting Agency uses a nuclear density gauge to determine
density the test procedures FOP for WAQTC TM 8 and WSDOT SOP T
729 will be used on the day the mix is placed and prior to opening to
traffic.
Roadway cores for density may be obtained by either the Contracting
Agency or the Contractor in accordance with WSDOT SOP 734. The core
diameter shall be 4-inches minimum, unless otherwise approved by the
Engineer. Roadway cores will be tested by the Contracting Agency in
accordance with WSDOT FOP for AASHTO T 166.
If the Contract includes the Bid item “Roadway Core” the cores shall be
obtained by the Contractor in the presence of the Engineer on the same
day the mix is placed and at locations designated by the Engineer. If
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 19 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
the Contract does not include the Bid item “Roadway Core” the
Contracting Agency may obtain the cores.
For a lot in progress with a CPF less than 0.75, a new lot will begin at
the Contractor’s request after the Engineer is satisfied that material
conforming to the Specifications can be produced.
HMA mixture accepted by commercial evaluation and HMA constructed
under conditions other than those listed above shall be compacted on
the basis of a test point evaluation of the compaction train. The test
point evaluation shall be performed in accordance with instructions
from the Engineer. The number of passes with an approved compaction
train, required to attain the maximum test point density, shall be used
on all subsequent paving.
HMA for preleveling shall be thoroughly compacted. HMA that is used
for preleveling wheel rutting shall be compacted with a pneumatic tire
roller unless otherwise approved by the Engineer.
Test Results
For a sublot that has been tested with a nuclear density gauge that did
not meet the minimum of 92 percent of the reference maximum density
in a compaction lot with a CPF below 1.00 and thus subject to a price
reduction or rejection, the Contractor may request that a core be used
for determination of the relative density of the sublot. The relative
density of the core will replace the relative density determined by the
nuclear density gauge for the sublot and will be used for calculation of
the CPF and acceptance of HMA compaction lot.
When cores are taken by the Contracting Agency at the request of the
Contractor, they shall be requested by noon of the next workday after
the test results for the sublot have been provided or made available to
the Contractor. Core locations shall be outside of wheel paths and as
determined by the Engineer. Traffic control shall be provided by the
Contractor as requested by the Engineer. Failure by the Contractor to
provide the requested traffic control will result in forfeiture of the
request for cores. When the CPF for the lot based on the results of the
HMA cores is less than 1.00, the cost for the coring will be deducted
from any monies due or that may become due the Contractor under the
Contract at the rate of $200 per core and the Contractor shall pay for
the cost of the traffic control.
5-04.3(10)A HMA Compaction – General Compaction Requirements
Compaction shall take place when the mixture is in the proper condition
so that no undue displacement, cracking, or shoving occurs. Areas
inaccessible to large compaction equipment shall be compacted by
other mechanical means. Any HMA that becomes loose, broken,
contaminated, shows an excess or deficiency of asphalt, or is in any
way defective, shall be removed and replaced with new hot mix that
shall be immediately compacted to conform to the surrounding area.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 20 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
The type of rollers to be used and their relative position in the
compaction sequence shall generally be the Contractor’s option,
provided the specified densities are attained. Unless the Engineer has
approved otherwise, rollers shall only be operated in the static mode
when the internal temperature of the mix is less than 175°F.
Regardless of mix temperature, a roller shall not be operated in a mode
that results in checking or cracking of the mat. Rollers shall only be
operated in static mode on bridge decks.
5-04.3(10)B HMA Compaction – Cyclic Density
Low cyclic density areas are defined as spots or streaks in the
pavement that are less than 90 percent of the theoretical maximum
density. At the Engineer’s discretion, the Engineer may evaluate the
HMA pavement for low cyclic density, and when doing so will follow
WSDOT SOP 733. A $500 Cyclic Density Price Adjustment will be
assessed for any 500-foot section with two or more density readings
below 90 percent of the theoretical maximum density.

5-04.3(10)D HMA Nonstatistical Compaction
5-04.3(10)D1 HMA Nonstatistical Compaction – Lots and Sublots
HMA compaction which is accepted by nonstatistical evaluation will be
based on acceptance testing performed by the Contracting Agency
dividing the project into compaction lots.
A lot is represented by randomly selected samples of the same mix
design that will be tested for acceptance. A lot is defined as the total
quantity of material or work produced for each Job Mix Formula placed.
Only one lot per JMF is expected. A sublot shall be equal to one day’s
production or 400 tons, whichever is less except that the final sublot
will be a minimum of 200 tons and may be increased to 800 tons.
Testing for compaction will be at the rate of 5 tests per sublot per
WSDOT T 738.
The sublot locations within each density lot will be determined by the
Engineer. For a lot in progress with a CPF less than 0.75, a new lot will
begin at the Contractor’s request after the Engineer is satisfied that
material conforming to the Specifications can be produced.
HMA mixture accepted by commercial evaluation and HMA constructed
under conditions other than those listed above shall be compacted on
the basis of a test point evaluation of the compaction train. The test
point evaluation shall be performed in accordance with instructions
from the Engineer. The number of passes with an approved compaction
train, required to attain the maximum test point density, shall be used
on all subsequent paving.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 21 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
HMA for preleveling shall be thoroughly compacted. HMA that is used to
prelevel wheel ruts shall be compacted with a pneumatic tire roller
unless otherwise approved by the Engineer.
5-04.3(10)D2 HMA Compaction Nonstatistical Evaluation – Acceptance
Testing
The location of the HMA compaction acceptance tests will be randomly
selected by the Engineer from within each sublot, with one test per
sublot.
5-04.3(10)D3 HMA Nonstatistical Compaction – Price Adjustments
For each compaction lot with one or two sublots, having all sublots
attain a relative density that is 92 percent of the reference maximum
density the HMA shall be accepted at the unit Contract price with no
further evaluation. When a sublot does not attain a relative density that
is 92 percent of the reference maximum density, the lot shall be
evaluated in accordance with Section 1-06.2 to determine the
appropriate CPF. The maximum CPF shall be 1.00, however, lots with a
calculated CPF in excess of 1.00 will be used to offset lots with CPF
values below 1.00 but greater than 0.90. Lots with CPF lower than 0.90
will be evaluated for compliance per 5-04.3(11). Additional testing by
either a nuclear moisture-density gauge or cores will be completed as
required to provide a minimum of three tests for evaluation.
For compaction below the required 92% a Non-Conforming Compaction
Factor (NCCF) will be determined. The NCCF equals the algebraic
difference of CPF minus 1.00 multiplied by 40 percent. The Compaction
Price Adjustment will be calculated as the product of CPF, the quantity
of HMA in the compaction control lot in tons, and the unit Contract price
per ton of mix.
5-04.3(11) Reject Work
5-04.3(11)A Reject Work General
Work that is defective or does not conform to Contract requirements
shall be rejected. The Contractor may propose, in writing, alternatives
to removal and replacement of rejected material. Acceptability of such
alternative proposals will be determined at the sole discretion of the
Engineer. HMA that has been rejected is subject to the requirements in
Section 1-06.2(2) and this specification, and the Contractor shall
submit a corrective action proposal to the Engineer for approval.
5-04.3(11)B Rejection by Contractor
The Contractor may, prior to sampling, elect to remove any defective
material and replace it with new material. Any such new material will be
sampled, tested, and evaluated for acceptance.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 22 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
5-04.3(11)C Rejection Without Testing (Mixture or Compaction)
The Engineer may, without sampling, reject any batch, load, or section
of Roadway that appears defective. Material rejected before placement
shall not be incorporated into the pavement. Any rejected section of
Roadway shall be removed.
No payment will be made for the rejected materials or the removal of
the materials unless the Contractor requests that the rejected material
be tested. If the Contractor elects to have the rejected material tested,
a minimum of three representative samples will be obtained and tested.
Acceptance of rejected material will be based on conformance with the
nonstatistical acceptance Specification. If the CPF for the rejected
material is less than 0.75, no payment will be made for the rejected
material; in addition, the cost of sampling and testing shall be borne by
the Contractor. If the CPF is greater than or equal to 0.75, the cost of
sampling and testing will be borne by the Contracting Agency. If the
material is rejected before placement and the CPF is greater than or
equal to 0.75, compensation for the rejected material will be at a CPF of
0.75. If rejection occurs after placement and the CPF is greater than or
equal to 0.75, compensation for the rejected material will be at the
calculated CPF with an addition of 25 percent of the unit Contract price
added for the cost of removal and disposal.
5-04.3(11)D Rejection - A Partial Sublot
In addition to the random acceptance sampling and testing, the
Engineer may also isolate from a normal sublot any material that is
suspected of being defective in relative density, gradation or asphalt
binder content. Such isolated material will not include an original
sample location. A minimum of three random samples of the suspect
material will be obtained and tested. The material will then be
statistically evaluated as an independent lot in accordance with Section
1-06.2(2).
5-04.3(11)E Rejection - An Entire Sublot
An entire sublot that is suspected of being defective may be rejected.
When a sublot is rejected a minimum of two additional random samples
from this sublot will be obtained. These additional samples and the
original sublot will be evaluated as an independent lot in accordance
with Section 1-06.2(2).
5-04.3(11)F Rejection - A Lot in Progress
The Contractor shall shut down operations and shall not resume HMA
placement until such time as the Engineer is satisfied that material
conforming to the Specifications can be produced:

In an overlay or milled surface application, repair all failed pavement
areas prior to installation of the paving interlayer. Fill all cracks ¼” or
greater with approved material.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 32 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
Immediately prior to placement of paving interlayer, the pavement
surface shall be dry, cleaned of anything that would interfere with
adhesion, for e.g., vegetation, moss, dirt, gravel or water.
A leveling or "scratch" course is recommended when road surface is not
acceptable and shall be of proper gradation and sufficient thickness to
achieve a smooth, level surface with no gaps greater than ¼” depth
and width or be acceptable to the project engineer.
A finish grind may be used as an alternative to an asphalt leveling
course being placed, when you can achieve the final surface texture has
no cracks, gaps or vertical angles greater the ¼” depth and width or be
acceptable to the project engineer. In all cases the surface must be
clean and dry and the application rate of the Hot PG grade asphalt
binder shall be increased to insure complete interlayer saturation and
bonding.
INSTALLATION
A. Apply the asphalt interlay fabric in a hot PG graded asphalt binder.
Asphalt Emulsion is NOT acceptable for placing paving interlayer
due to time delay for it to break and the difficulty in insuring
quality as installed.
B. Asphalt Binder
1. A hot asphalt binder shall be applied to saturate the paving
interlayer (min. to be the asphalt retention rate) plus amount
needed to bond to existing surface and the new overlay. The
asphalt binder to be used shall be PG58H –22 (PG64 -22) or
higher. Sustained ambient temperatures (above 90º) may
require a stiffer binder gradation like PG58V –22 (PG70 -22)
or higher to improve set time and reduce risk of fabric pick-up
under construction traffic.
2. The hot asphalt binder shall be applied per the paving
interlayer manufacturer or as directed by the Engineer. For
TenCate Mirafi MPM30 the hot asphalt binder shall be applied
at a rate of 0.10 Gal/SY on a new HMA leveling surface. On an
old smooth surface or a clean fine milled surface apply hot
asphalt binder shall be applied at a rate of 0.12 Gal/SY. For
Tensar GlasPave 25 the hot asphalt binder shall be applied at
a rate of 0.15 Gal/SY on a new pavement surface, 0.17
Gal/SY on an aged oxidized surface, and a rate of 0.2 Gal/SY
on a milled surface.
3. Spray application shall extend four (4) inches wider than
width of paving interlayer on lap side. Hot asphalt binder
application shall be wide enough to cover the entire width of
engineered paving mat material overlaps. The hot asphalt
binder shall be applied only as far in advance of the
engineered paving mat material installation as is appropriate
to ensure a tacky surface at the time of the engineered
paving mat material placement. Traffic shall not be allowed on
the hot asphalt binder.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 33 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
4. The hot asphalt binder shall be applied by a distributor truck
in a smooth uniform manner at as low a temperature as is
possible to achieve the right application rate, depending on
ambient and road surface temperatures and type of PG
asphalt binder used. Temperature of the hot asphalt binder
shall be sufficiently high enough to permit uniform spray
pattern and shall be between 350º F and 400º F. The air
temperature shall be 50º F and rising for placement of the hot
asphalt binder coat.
C. The paving interlayer shall be installed with equipment in good
working order that is capable of installing the fabric without
wrinkles or manually as needed and recommended by
manufacturer.
1. Initial alignment of the interlay fabric is very important, since
the fabric direction cannot be changed appreciably without
causing wrinkles. If the alignment of the interlay fabric must
be changed, the fabric shall be cut and realigned, overlapping
the previous material and proceeding as before.
2. If manual lay-down methods are used, the paving fabric shall
be unrolled, aligned, and placed in increments of
approximately thirty (30) feet or as project engineer suggest.
3. The material shall be placed flat and wrinkle-free. The paving
interlayer installation may require hand brooming as
necessary to eliminate ripples that may occur during
installation.
4. Brooming or squeegee of paving interlayer is required to
insure adequate adhesion into the hot asphalt binder before
the hot asphalt binder has cooled and lost tackiness. If the
interlayer wrinkles more than 1” height during installation, the
wrinkle shall be cut and lapped in the direction of paving. In
these repaired areas, additional hot asphalt binder shall be
applied as needed to achieve a sound bond to the substrate.
Damaged engineered paving mat shall be removed and
replaced, per the manufacturer's recommendations, at the
contractor's expense with the same type of material.
5. To ease installations around curves, the paving fabric can be
placed in shortened lengths by mechanical equipment or by
hand.
6. Paving interlayer shall be lapped two (2) to four (4) inches
longitudinally and two (2) to four (4) inches transversely.
Transverse laps shall be in the direction of the asphalt
concrete overlay placement insuring hot asphalt binder is
placed under the overlap. The interlay fabric shall be neatly
cut and contoured at all joints.
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 34 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
7. Excess hot asphalt binder that bleeds through the engineered
paving mat under normal construction traffic shall be
countered by broadcasting clean sand or hot mix to create a
bond break between the excess hot asphalt binder and the
construction equipment tires. Excess blotting sand shall be
removed from the interlayer prior to placing the HMA overlay.
No other material, such as asphalt release agents or diesel,
shall be used for this purpose.
8. No traffic, except necessary construction traffic or emergency
vehicles, shall be driven on the engineered paving mat, unless
approved by the engineer. If traffic on the interlayer is
approved by the engineer, clean sand shall be lightly
broadcasted over the engineered paving mat interlayer, and
any loose sand shall be removed prior to paving.
9. Turning of construction equipment and other vehicles shall be
gradual and kept to a minimum to avoid damage to the
paving interlayer. Caution: Parking on the installed paving
fabric prior to final overlay for extended periods could cause
damage to the interlayer.
10. Placement of the first lift of the HMA overlay shall closely
follow placement of the engineered paving mat. All areas in
which the engineered paving mat has been placed shall be
paved during the same day, unless approved otherwise by the
engineer. In the event of rainfall on the engineered paving
mat prior to the placement of the first HMA overlay lift, the
engineered paving mat shall be allowed to dry before the HMA
is placed. The compacted thickness of the first lift of the HMA
overlay on the engineered paving mat shall not be less than
1.5 inches, and the temperature of the mix at placement shall
not exceed the engineered paving mat melting point
temperature. Where the total HMA overlay thickness is less
than 1.5 inches, engineered paving mat shall not be placed.
NOTE: Minimum lift thickness should be at least 3 times the
nominal maximum aggregate size to ensure aggregate can
align themselves during compaction to achieve required
density and also to ensure mix is impermeable.
11. Paving interlayer should never be installed when it or the
pavement surface is wet.
12. The Contractor shall not place more interlay fabric on the
roadway than can be overlaid the same day with Hot Mix
Asphalt. No fabric, except that which is required for normal
lapped joints, shall be exposed to traffic.
13. In the event of breakdown of the paving operation, the
interlay fabric which has not been overlaid shall be dusted
with sand to break the tackiness of the sealant so traffic does
not pick up the fabric. The application rate shall uniformly
dust the roadway as approved by the Engineer. More than one
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 5 - 35 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
application of sand may be required. Before placing the
asphalt concrete, the fabric surface shall be broomed to
remove the excess sand as directed by the Engineer. The
sand shall meet the graduation requirements of the Section
9-03.1(2)B of the WSDOT Standard Specifications.
WORKMANSHIP AND QUALITY CONTROL
A Technical Representative for the manufacturer of the paving
interlayer shall be on the project to work with the Contractor’s
personnel and to provide the necessary technical assistance to ensure
the satisfactory placement of the interlay fabric and HMA overlay. The
representative shall not leave the project until the Engineer is satisfied
that the Contractor has a full understanding of what is required to place
the interlay fabric satisfactorily. The installing contractor shall give
sufficient notice of planned work schedule such that proper inspection
of workmanship is accomplished.
1. Daily, the Contractor shall certify that interlayer was installed per
plans and specifications and confirm, by weight tickets and
measuring asphalt used, that the hot asphalt binder usage equates
to the specified amount for proper interlayer saturation and
bonding.
2. Hot asphalt binder application rate shall not be reduced without
the Engineer’s approval.
3. Certification of compliance from the binder supplier shall be
provided for each load of hot asphalt binder delivered to the
jobsite, showing the type and quality of material delivered.

Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 7 - 19 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
conditions. All service lines shall be flushed, before scheduling the
pressure test.
Water main, appurtenances and service connections shall be tested in
sections of convenient lengths under a hydrostatic pressure of 200 psi
to 210 psi for 15 minutes.
Pumps, gauges, plugs, saddles, corporation stops, miscellaneous hose
and piping, and measuring equipment necessary for performing the test
shall be furnished and operated by the Contractor. The Contractor shall
demonstrate the gauge is working properly before the testing begins.
Sections to be tested shall normally be limited to 1,000 feet.
The pipe shall be backfilled sufficiently to prevent movement of the pipe
under pressure. Thrust blocking shall be in place for an adequate time
for concrete to cure before testing. Where permanent blocking is not
required, the Contractor shall furnish and install temporary blocking
and remove it after testing. Thrust-blocking shall meet the performance
requirements of the details shown in Standard Drawings for specific

hours cure time of the thrust blocking.
The Contractor shall use a meter cart rented from the District to fill new
water mains for testing and flushing. New water mains shall be filled
and remain under 100 psi to 200 psi pressure for 24 to 48 hours to
allow air to escape and the lining of the pipe to absorb water.
The pressure test shall be accomplished by pumping the main up to 200
psi to 210 psi and maintaining the pressure, stopping the pump for 15
minutes, and pumping the main up to the test pressure again. During
the test, the section being tested shall be observed to detect any visible
leakage.
A clean container shall be used for holding water for pumping up
pressure on the main being tested. This makeup water shall be
sterilized by the addition of chlorine to a concentration of 50 ppm.
The quantity of water required to restore the pressure shall be
accurately determined by pumping through a positive displacement
water meter. The meter shall be approved by the District. Essentially no
loss will be allowed.
There shall not be an appreciable or abrupt loss in pressure during the
15 minute test period. Any visible leakage detected shall be corrected
by the Contractor regardless of the allowable leakage specified above.
Should the tested section fail to meet the pressure test successfully as
specified, the Contractor shall locate and repair the defects and then
retest the pipeline. There shall be no additional cost to the District for
failed tests.
Tests shall be made with the hydrant auxiliary gate valves open and the
hydrant valve in the closed position. Once the new line is successfully
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 7 - 20 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
tested, each valve shall be tested by closing each in turn and relieving
the pressure behind it. The mains shall be tested between valves.
Insofar as possible, no hydrostatic pressure shall be placed against the
opposite side of the valve being tested. This test of the valve will be
acceptable if there is no immediate loss of pressure on the gauge when
the pressure comes against the valve being checked. The Contractor
shall verify that the pressure differential across the valve does not
exceed the rated working pressure of the valve.
Defective materials or workmanship discovered as a result of
hydrostatic field test shall be replaced by the Contractor. Whenever it is
necessary to replace defective material or correct the workmanship, the
hydrostatic test shall be repeated to the satisfaction of the District.

confirmation of satisfactory results will be received on a DOH approved
form utilized by the certified laboratory. Disinfection of water mains
shall be accomplished by the Contractor in accordance with the
requirements of the Washington State Department of Health, AWWA
Standard C651 and in a manner satisfactory to the District. All filling
and flushing shall be done through a hydrant meter cart rented from
the District. A chlorination apparatus capable of accurately introducing
chlorine solution shall be used for the disinfection process. Refer to
Section 7-09.3(19) for disinfection of connections and repairs. Flush
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 7 - 21 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
and sample from the downstream flow. Sampling criteria shall be as
follows: First day samples shall reflect flow through a hydrant meter to
all end points and arterials. The system should set dormant for 24
hours and second set of samples taken which shall be representative of
the water in the pipe; there should be no additional flushing in order to
obtain a representative sample of water remaining in the pipe for 24
hours.
7-09.3(24)A Flushing
The section to be disinfected shall be first flushed to remove any solids
or contaminatedmaterial that may have become lodged in the pipe at
maximum flow established by the District Engineer prior to chlorination.
If a hydrant is not installed at the end of the water main, the Contractor
shall provide a tap large enough to develop a flow velocity of at least
2.5 feet/sec in the water main or adequate flushing facilities such as a
blow-off described in these specifications. The flushing period must be
approved by the District Engineer.
The source water used for disinfection and pressure testing shall be
flushed by District Staff prior to its use to ensure that contaminants or
debris are not introduced into the new pipe.
Taps for temporary or permanent release of air, introduction of chlorine
or flushing purposes shall be provided by the Contractor as a part of the
construction of water mains. Temporary taps shall be plugged after use
with threaded brass plugs.
7-09.3(24)B Requirement of Chlorine
The section to be tested shall be chlorinated so that a free residual of
no less than 25 ppm (parts per million) is measured at the end of all
main arterials. At a minimum, flush each service line to disinfect those
portions allowing the chlorinated water to remain in facilities, blow offs,
hydrant spools, and service lines, etc. for a minimum of 24 hours. The
initial chlorine content of the water shall not be less than 50 ppm nor
more than 100 ppm. The forms of chlorine that may be used in the
disinfection operations are liquid chlorine injection at 12.5%.
Liquid Chlorine: Chlorine shall be applied by solution fed at one end of
the section with a Service or hydrant at the opposite end open
sufficiently to permit a flow through during chlorine application. The
chlorine solution shall be fed into the pipeline already mixed by an
automatically proportioning applicator to provide a steady application
target rate of 50 ppm chlorine. Hydrants, services and blow-offs along
the chlorinated section shall be open during application until the
presence of chlorine has definitely been detected in each hydrant and
service run.
When a chlorine concentration no less than 25 ppm has been
established throughout the line, the valves shall be closed and the line
left undisturbed for 24 hours. If the chlorine concentration in the
Rock Creek Culvert Replacement/Lincoln 7 - 22 June 3, 2021
Project Number: 13-3007.5
pipeline exceeds 100 ppm, the pipeline shall be flushed immediately
and the process shall start over.
Granulated hypochlorite designed for pools and hot tubs are
unacceptable for use on water mains.
The main shall be filled with water at a rate to ensure that the water
within the main will flow at a velocity no greater than 1ft/s. Precautions
shall be taken to ensure that air pockets are eliminated. When a
chlorine concentration of not less than 25 ppm and not more than 100
ppm has been established throughout the line, the valves shall be
closed and the line left undisturbed for 24 hours. If chlorine
concentration exceeds 100ppm the Contractor will immediately effect a
reduction in the concentration by properly flushing the main and
removing chlorine at the discharge. If the water temperature is less
than 41 degrees F, the water shall remain in the pipe for at least 48
hours to complete disinfection. The line shall then be thoroughly flushed
and water samples taken. The Contractor shall exercise special care in
flushing to avoid damage to surrounding property and to conform to
Covington Water District Standards. The Contractor shall provide an
accurate written report of the procedure used to the construction
inspector.
7-09.3(24)C Final Flushing and Testing
Following chlorination, chlorinated water shall be flushed from the new
water main until the replacement water throughout its length shows
residuals equal to background chlorine levels in the system.
After final flushing and before the new water main is connected to the
distribution system, two consecutive sets of acceptable samples, taken
at least 24 hours apart, shall be collected from the new main. The
Contractor shall schedule the sample collection with the District a
minimum of three (3) work days in advance of test. The number of
samples from the source and the number of representative sample
points required will be determined by the District. Appropriate sample
taps shall be furnished by the Contractor. No hose or fire hydrant shall
be used in the collection of samples unless directed by District
Engineer.
At least one set of samples shall be collected from every 1,200 feet of
the new water main, plus one set from the end of the line and at least
one set from each branch. All samples shall be tested for total coliform
bacteria and for heterotrophic bacteria by the heterotrophic plate count
(HPC) analysis. The maximum allowable coliform content of the flushed
sample shall be zero. The maximum allowable HPC population count in
all source samples shall be 300/ml. Any source sample that exceeds a
count of 300/ml shall be ruled as an indeterminate test and a new set
of source and construction samples for analysis shall be required. The
maximum allowable HPC population count from any construction
sample shall be no greater than twenty (20) counts above the highest
source HPC population count.

Project Number: 13-3007.5
Before placing the lines into service, a satisfactory report shall be
received by the District from the certified laboratory evidencing
successful tests on samples collected from representative points in the
system extension.
Should the initial test result in an unsatisfactory bacteriological test,
additional chlorination using the procedure as specified above shall be
repeated by the Contractor until satisfactory results are obtained. The
Contractor shall be responsible for disposal of treated water flushed
from the mains including de-chlorination as necessary to protect the
environment.
Chlorinated water shall never be flushed into the storm drain without
local agency approval or to a natural body of water. This includes lakes,
rivers, streams, storm drainage systems, and any and all other waters
where fish or other natural aquatic life can be expected. Chlorinated
water may be discharged to an available sanitary sewer system with
the appropriate sewer District’s approval and where the rate of
discharge will not overload the sanitary sewer.

Schedule III – Special Provisions
E. Construction Requirements
Work shall be as described in Section 7-09.3(19)A of the Standard Specifications and as
modified and supplemented herein.
(1) Replace the last sentence in the sixth paragraph of Section 7-09.3(19)A with the
following sentence:
CONTRACTOR shall not operate any valve of the existing sewer system at any time,
without prior approval of the OWNER.
(2) Delete the last paragraph of Section 7-09.3(19)A.
The CONTRACTOR shall notify the DISTRICT’s field representative and other utilities at
least 96-hours in advance of any construction and make the necessary arrangements with
the DISTRICT’s field representative for the connection to the existing sewer force main.
The CONTRACTOR shall furnish all material, equipment and labor necessary for making
the connection under the supervision of the DISTRICT. The 96-hour notice requirement
shall not count Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays.
Work shall not be started until all of the material, equipment and labor necessary to
properly complete work is assembled on the site. Once work is started on a connection,
it shall proceed continuously without interruption and as rapidly as possible until the
connection is completed. Before ordering materials for any connection to an existing sewer
main, CONTRACTOR shall excavate the sewer main and verify the type of pipe and
outside diameter of all pipes for determination of types of fittings to be used. The
CONTRACTOR shall coordinate all work with the DISTRICT's field representative.
CONTRACTOR shall verify the location and depth of all existing utilities affected by the
connection prior to the start of any of this Work. CONTRACTOR shall pothole and verify all
existing fittings and pipe configurations prior to scheduling a shutdown of the existing system
for connections.
Due to the nature of the site’s existing conditions it is possible that the existing force main
may be filled above the connection points to the existing force main. If this is the case the
CONTRACTOR will be required to pump the existing force main down to a level such that
when they cut into the existing force main at the lowest connection point no effluent is left in
the main so that zero spillage from the main occurs. No additional payment will be made for
pumping, trucking, or disposal of the effluent if this situation occurs. Any force main pumped
effluent may be transported to the nearest Soos Creek Water and Sewer District gravity
sewer manhole and disposed of there at no cost to the CONTRACTOR.

13. Use environmentally acceptable lubricants composed of biodegradable base oils such as vegetable oils, synthetic
esters, and polyalkylene glycols in equipment operated in or near the water.
CONSTRUCTION-RELATED SEDIMENT, EROSION AND POLLUTION CONTAINMENT
14. Work in the dry watercourse (when no natural flow is occurring in the channel, or when flow is diverted around or
through the job site).
15. Protect all disturbed areas from erosion. Maintain erosion and sediment control until all work and cleanup of the job
site is complete.
16. All erosion control materials that will remain onsite must be composed of 100% biodegradable materials.
17. Straw used for erosion and sediment control, must be certified free of noxious weeds and their seeds.
18. Stop all hydraulic project activities except those needed to control erosion and siltation, if flow conditions arise that
will result in erosion or siltation of waters of the state.
19. Prevent project contaminants, such as petroleum products, hydraulic fluid, fresh concrete, sediments, sediment-
laden water, chemicals, or any other toxic or harmful materials, from entering or leaching into waters of the state.
20. Route construction water (wastewater) from the project to an upland area above the limits of anticipated floodwater.
Remove fine sediment and other contaminants before discharging the construction water to waters of the state.

24. Do not stockpile construction material waterward of the ordinary high water line.
25. Use only clean, suitable material as fill material (no trash, debris, car bodies, tires, asphalt, concrete, etc.).
IN-WATER WORK AREA ISOLATION USING A TEMPORARY BYPASS
26. Isolate flows from the work areas by using either a total or partial bypass or coffer dam to reroute the stream flows.
27. Sequence the work to minimize the duration of dewatering.
28. Use the least-impacting feasible method to temporarily isolate water from the work areas. Consider the physical
characteristics of the site and the anticipated volume of water flowing through the work area.
29. The hydraulic capacity of a stream bypass must be equal to or greater than the 25-year peak flow event expected
when the bypass will be operated.
30. Design the temporary bypass to minimize the length of the dewatered stream channel.
31. During all phases of bypass installation and decommissioning, maintain flows downstream of the project site to
ensure survival of all downstream fish.
32. Install the temporary bypass before starting other construction work in the wetted perimeter.
33. Install a cofferdam or similar device at the upstream and downstream end of the bypass to prevent backwater from
entering the work area.
34. Return diverted water to the channel immediately downstream of the work area. Dissipate flow energy from the
diversion to prevent scour or erosion of the channel and bank.
35. If the diversion inlet is a gravity diversion that provides fish passage, place the diversion outlet where it facilitates
gradual and safe reentry of fish into the stream channel.
36. If the bypass is a pumped diversion, once started it must run continuously until it is no longer necessary to bypass
flows. This requires back-up pumps on-site and twenty-four-hour monitoring for overnight operation.
37. If the diversion inlet is a pump diversion in a fish-bearing stream, the pump intake structure must have a fish screen
installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with RCW 77.57.010 and 77.57.070. Screen the pump intake with
one of the following:
a) Perforated plate: 0.094 inch (maximum opening diameter);
b) Profile bar: 0.069 inch (maximum width opening); or
c) Woven wire: 0.087 inch (maximum opening in the narrow direction).
The minimum open area for all types of fish screens is twenty-seven percent. The screened intake facility must have
enough surface area to ensure that the velocity through the screen is less than 0.4 feet per second. Maintain fish
screens to prevent injury or entrapment of fish.
38. The fish screen must remain in place whenever water is withdrawn from the stream through the pump intake.
39. Remove fish screens on dewatering pumps in the isolated work area only after all fish are safe and excluded from
the work area.
40. Isolate pump hose intakes with block nets so that fish cannot get near the intake.
FISH LIFE REMOVAL
41. All persons participating in capture and removal must have training, knowledge, and skills in the safe handling of
fish life.
42. If electrofishing is conducted, a person with electrofishing training must be on-site to conduct or direct all
electrofishing activities.
43. Place block nets upstream and downstream of the in-water work area before capturing and removing fish life.
44. Capture and safely move fish life from the work area to the nearest suitable free-flowing water.

BRIDGE
45. Design and construct the bridge to pass water, ice, large wood, and associated woody material and sediment likely
to move under the bridge during the 100-year flood flows.
46. The authorized water crossing structure is a full span bridge with a 53.5 foot clear span, a length of 35.1 feet, and a
minimum three feet of clearance above the 100 year flood elevation.
47. Embed the top of bridge footings well below potential local scour depth to prevent exposure of the footing surface
and undermining.
48. Protect structural fill associated with the bridge installation from erosion to the 100-year peak flow.
LARGE WOODY MATERIAL
49. Place large woody material consistent with natural stream processes waterward of the ordinary high water line as
shown in the approved plans (Provision 2).
50. Use fir, cedar, or other coniferous species to construct the large wood fish habitat structures, and secure them in a
manner to withstand a 100 year flood event.
DEMOBILIZATION AND CLEANUP
51. Do not relocate removed or replaced structures within waters of the state. Remove and dispose of these structures
in an upland area above the limits of anticipated floodwater.
52. Upon completion of the project, restore the disturbed bed, banks, and riparian zone to preproject condition to the
extent possible.
53. To minimize sediment delivery to the stream or stream channel, do not return in-stream flows to the work area until
all in-channel work is completed and the bed and banks are stabilized.
54. Seed areas disturbed by construction activities with a native seed mix suitable for the site that has at least one
quick-establishing plant species.
55. Replace native riparian zone vegetation damaged or destroyed by construction with native trees and native shrubs.
Plant trees 10 feet on center, and shrubs five feet on center. Complete installation of the restoration plants prior to the
end of the first dormant season (late fall through late winter) after installation of the water crossing structure per the
approved plan (Provision 2). Maintain plantings for at least three years to ensure at least eighty percent survival of each
species or a contingency species approved by the Habitat Biologist. Failure to achieve the eighty percent survival in
year three will require you to submit a plan with follow-up measures to achieve requirements or reasons to modify
requirements.
56. Upon completion of the project, remove all materials or equipment from the site and dispose of all excess spoils
and waste materials in an upland area above the limits of anticipated floodwater.

non-compliance with the ESA and your Corps permit. The NMFS is the appropriate authority to
determine compliance with the terms and conditions of their BO and with the ESA. If you
cannot comply with the terms and conditions of this programmatic consultation, you must, prior
to commencing construction, contact the Corps, Seattle District, Regulatory Branch for an
individual consultation in accordance with the requirements of the ESA and/or the MSA.
b. Incidents where any individuals of fish species, marine mammals and/or sea turtles listed
by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries (NOAA Fisheries) under the
Endangered Species Act appear to be injured or killed as a result of discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the U.S. or structures or work in navigable waters of the U.S. authorized
by this Nationwide Permit verification shall be reported to NOAA Fisheries, Office of Protected
Resources at (301) 713-1401 and the Regulatory Office of the Seattle District of the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers at (206) 764-3495. The finder should leave the animal alone, make note of
any circumstances likely causing the death or injury, note the location and number of individuals
involved and, if possible, take photographs. Adult animals should not be disturbed unless
circumstances arise where they are obviously injured or killed by discharge exposure or some
unnatural cause. The finder may be asked to carry out instructions provided by NOAA Fisheries
to collect specimens or take other measures to ensure that evidence intrinsic to the specimen is
preserved.
c. In order to meet the requirements of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) 2008 Fish

In addition to any special condition that may be required on a case-by-case basis by the District Engineer,
the following terms and conditions must be met, as applicable, for a Nationwide Permit (NWP)
authorization to be valid in Washington State.
A. DESCRIPTION OF AUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES
Linear Transportation Projects. Activities required for crossings of waters of the United States associated
with the construction, expansion, modification, or improvement of linear transportation projects (e.g.,
roads, highways, railways, trails, airport runways, and taxiways) in waters of the United States. For linear
transportation projects in non-tidal waters, the discharge cannot cause the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of
waters of the United States. For linear transportation projects in tidal waters, the discharge cannot cause
the loss of greater than 1/3-acre of waters of the United States. Any stream channel modification,
including bank stabilization, is limited to the minimum necessary to construct or protect the linear
transportation project; such modifications must be in the immediate vicinity of the project.
This NWP also authorizes temporary structures, fills, and work, including the use of temporary mats,
necessary to construct the linear transportation project. Appropriate measures must be taken to maintain
normal downstream flows and minimize flooding to the maximum extent practicable, when temporary
structures, work, and discharges, including cofferdams, are necessary for construction activities, access
fills, or dewatering of construction sites. Temporary fills must consist of materials, and be placed in a
manner, that will not be eroded by expected high flows. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety
and the affected areas returned to pre-construction elevations. The areas affected by temporary fills must
be revegetated, as appropriate.
This NWP cannot be used to authorize non-linear features commonly associated with transportation
projects, such as vehicle maintenance or storage buildings, parking lots, train stations, or aircraft hangars.
Notification: The permittee must submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer prior to
commencing the activity if: (1) the loss of waters of the United States exceeds 1/10-acre; or (2) there is a
discharge in a special aquatic site, including wetlands. (See general condition 32.) (Authorities: Sections
10 and 404)
Note 1: For linear transportation projects crossing a single waterbody more than one time at separate and
distant locations, or multiple waterbodies at separate and distant locations, each crossing is considered a
single and complete project for purposes of NWP authorization. Linear transportation projects must
comply with 33 CFR 330.6(d). Note 2: Some discharges for the construction of farm roads or forest
2
roads, or temporary roads for moving mining equipment, may qualify for an exemption under section
404(f) of the Clean Water Act (see 33 CFR 323.4). Note 3: For NWP 14 activities that require pre-
construction notification, the PCN must include any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or
individual permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any
related activity, including other separate and distant crossings that require Department of the Army
authorization but do not require pre-construction notification (see paragraph (b) of general condition 32).
The district engineer will evaluate the PCN in accordance with Section D, “District Engineer’s Decision.”
The district engineer may require mitigation to ensure that the authorized activity results in no more than
minimal individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects (see general condition 23).
B. CORPS NATIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR ALL NWPs
To qualify for NWP authorization, the prospective permittee must comply with the following general
conditions, as applicable, in addition to any regional or case-specific conditions imposed by the division
engineer or district engineer. Every person who may wish to obtain permit authorization under one or
more NWPs, or who is currently relying on an existing or prior permit authorization under one or more
NWPs, has been and is on notice that all of the provisions of 33 CFR 330.1 through 330.6 apply to every
NWP authorization. Note especially 33 CFR 330.5 relating to the modification, suspension, or revocation
of any NWP authorization.
1. Navigation. (a) No activity may cause more than a minimal adverse effect on navigation. (b) Any
safety lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, must be
installed and maintained at the permittee's expense on authorized facilities in navigable waters of the
United States. (c) The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if, in the
opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or work shall cause
unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the permittee will be required,
upon due notice from the Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or alter the structural work or
obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim shall be made against the
United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
2. Aquatic Life Movements. No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle movements of
those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species that normally migrate
through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound water. All permanent and temporary
crossings of waterbodies shall be suitably culverted, bridged, or otherwise designed and constructed to
maintain low flows to sustain the movement of those aquatic species. If a bottomless culvert cannot be
used, then the crossing should be designed and constructed to minimize adverse effects to aquatic life
movements.
3. Spawning Areas. Activities in spawning areas during spawning seasons must be avoided to the
maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g., through excavation,
fill, or downstream smothering by substantial turbidity) of an important spawning area are not authorized.
4. Migratory Bird Breeding Areas. Activities in waters of the United States that serve as breeding areas
for migratory birds must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable.
5. Shellfish Beds. No activity may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish populations, unless the activity
is directly related to a shellfish harvesting activity authorized by NWPs 4 and 48, or is a shellfish seeding
or habitat restoration activity authorized by NWP 27.
3
6. Suitable Material. No activity may use unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car bodies, asphalt, etc.).
Material used for construction or discharged must be free from toxic pollutants in toxic amounts (see
section 307 of the Clean Water Act).
7. Water Supply Intakes. No activity may occur in the proximity of a public water supply intake, except
where the activity is for the repair or improvement of public water supply intake structures or adjacent
bank stabilization.
8. Adverse Effects From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoundment of water, adverse effects
to the aquatic system due to accelerating the passage of water, and/or restricting its flow must be
minimized to the maximum extent practicable.
9. Management of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the pre-construction course,
condition, capacity, and location of open waters must be maintained for each activity, including stream
channelization, storm water management activities, and temporary and permanent road crossings, except
as provided below. The activity must be constructed to withstand expected high flows. The activity must
not restrict or impede the passage of normal or high flows, unless the primary purpose of the activity is to
impound water or manage high flows. The activity may alter the pre-construction course, condition,
capacity, and location of open waters if it benefits the aquatic environment (e.g., stream restoration or
relocation activities).
10. Fills Within 100-Year Floodplains. The activity must comply with applicable FEMA-approved state
or local floodplain management requirements.
11. Equipment. Heavy equipment working in wetlands or mudflats must be placed on mats, or other
measures must be taken to minimize soil disturbance.
12. Soil Erosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls must be used and
maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all exposed soil and other fills, as
well as any work below the ordinary high water mark or high tide line, must be permanently stabilized at
the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to perform work within waters of the United
States during periods of low-flow or no-flow, or during low tides.
13. Removal of Temporary Fills. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety and the affected areas
returned to pre-construction elevations. The affected areas must be revegetated, as appropriate.
14. Proper Maintenance. Any authorized structure or fill shall be properly maintained, including
maintenance to ensure public safety and compliance with applicable NWP general conditions, as well as
any activity-specific conditions added by the district engineer to an NWP authorization.
15. Single and Complete Project. The activity must be a single and complete project. The same NWP
cannot be used more than once for the same single and complete project.
16. Wild and Scenic Rivers. (a) No NWP activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and
Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible
inclusion in the system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency
with direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed activity
will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or study status. (b) If a proposed NWP
activity will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River System, or in a river officially
designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the system while the river is in an
official study status, the permittee must submit a pre-construction notification (see general condition 32).
The district engineer will coordinate the PCN with the Federal agency with direct management
4
responsibility for that river. The permittee shall not begin the NWP activity until notified by the district
engineer that the Federal agency with direct management responsibility for that river has determined in
writing that the proposed NWP activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or
study status. (c) Information on Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal
land management agency responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or study river (e.g.,
National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service). Information on these rivers is also available at: http://www.rivers.gov/.
17. Tribal Rights. No NWP activity may cause more than minimal adverse effects on tribal rights
(including treaty rights), protected tribal resources, or tribal lands.
18. Endangered Species. (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to directly or
indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or a species proposed
for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will
directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity is
authorized under any NWP which “may affect” a listed species or critical habitat, unless ESA section 7
consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed. Direct effects are the
immediate effects on listed species and critical habitat caused by the NWP activity. Indirect effects are
those effects on listed species and critical habitat that are caused by the NWP activity and are later in
time, but still are reasonably certain to occur. (b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for
complying with the requirements of the ESA. If pre-construction notification is required for the proposed
activity, the Federal permittee must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate
documentation has been submitted. If the appropriate documentation has not been submitted, additional
ESA section 7 consultation may be necessary for the activity and the respective federal agency would be
responsible for fulfilling its obligation under section 7 of the ESA. (c) Non-federal permittees must
submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if any listed species or designated critical
habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated
critical habitat, and shall not begin work on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the
requirements of the ESA have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might
affect Federally-listed endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre-construction
notification must include the name(s) of the endangered or threatened species that might be affected by
the proposed activity or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the proposed
activity. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity “may affect” or will have “no
effect” to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non-Federal applicant of the
Corps’ determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification. In cases where
the non-Federal applicant has identified listed species or critical habitat that might be affected or is in the
vicinity of the activity, and has so notified the Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps
has provided notification that the proposed activity will have “no effect” on listed species or critical
habitat, or until ESA section 7 consultation has been completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not
heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps.
(d) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the FWS or NMFS the district engineer may add
species-specific permit conditions to the NWPs. (e) Authorization of an activity by an NWP does not
authorize the “take” of a threatened or endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of
separate authorization (e.g., an ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with “incidental take”
provisions, etc.) from the FWS or the NMFS, the Endangered Species Act prohibits any person subject to
the jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue,
hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word
“harm” in the definition of “take'' means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may
include significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by
significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding or sheltering.
5
(f) If the non-federal permittee has a valid ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit with an
approved Habitat Conservation Plan for a project or a group of projects that includes the proposed NWP
activity, the non-federal applicant should provide a copy of that ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit with the
PCN required by paragraph (c) of this general condition. The district engineer will coordinate with the
agency that issued the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit to determine whether the proposed NWP activity
and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section 7 consultation conducted
for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. If that coordination results in concurrence from the agency that
the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section
7 consultation for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit, the district engineer does not need to conduct a
separate ESA section 7 consultation for the proposed NWP activity. The district engineer will notify the
non-federal applicant within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether the
ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit covers the proposed NWP activity or whether additional ESA section 7
consultation is required. (g) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their
critical habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the FWS and NMFS or their world wide web
pages at http://www.fws.gov/ or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/esa/
respectively.
19. Migratory Birds and Bald and Golden Eagles. The permittee is responsible for ensuring their action
complies with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The
permittee is responsible for contacting appropriate local office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
determine applicable measures to reduce impacts to migratory birds or eagles, including whether
“incidental take” permits are necessary and available under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act or Bald and
Golden Eagle Protection Act for a particular activity.
20. Historic Properties. (a) In cases where the district engineer determines that the activity may have the
potential to cause effects to properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic
Places, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied. (b) Federal permittees should follow their own procedures
for complying with the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. If pre-
construction notification is required for the proposed NWP activity, the Federal permittee must provide
the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those
requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate documentation has been submitted. If
the appropriate documentation is not submitted, then additional consultation under section 106 may be
necessary. The respective federal agency is responsible for fulfilling its obligation to comply with section
106. (c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if the
NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects to any historic properties listed on, determined to
be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places,
including previously unidentified properties. For such activities, the pre-construction notification must
state which historic properties might have the potential to be affected by the proposed NWP activity or
include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic properties or the potential for the presence of
historic properties. Assistance regarding information on the location of, or potential for, the presence of
historic properties can be sought from the State Historic Preservation Officer, Tribal Historic Preservation
Officer, or designated tribal representative, as appropriate, and the National Register of Historic Places
(see 33 CFR 330.4(g)). When reviewing pre-construction notifications, district engineers will comply
with the current procedures for addressing the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act. The district engineer shall make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out
appropriate identification efforts, which may include background research, consultation, oral history
interviews, sample field investigation, and field survey. Based on the information submitted in the PCN
and these identification efforts, the district engineer shall determine whether the proposed NWP activity
has the potential to cause effects on the historic properties. Section 106 consultation is not required when
the district engineer determines that the activity does not have the potential to cause effects on historic
properties (see 36 CFR 800.3(a)). Section 106 consultation is required when the district engineer
6
determines that the activity has the potential to cause effects on historic properties. The district engineer
will conduct consultation with consulting parties identified under 36 CFR 800.2(c) when he or she makes
any of the following effect determinations for the purposes of section 106 of the NHPA: no historic
properties affected, no adverse effect, or adverse effect. Where the non-Federal applicant has identified
historic properties on which the activity might have the potential to cause effects and so notified the
Corps, the non-Federal applicant shall not begin the activity until notified by the district engineer either
that the activity has no potential to cause effects to historic properties or that NHPA section 106
consultation has been completed. (d) For non-federal permittees, the district engineer will notify the
prospective permittee within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether
NHPA section 106 consultation is required. If NHPA section 106 consultation is required, the district
engineer will notify the non-Federal applicant that he or she cannot begin the activity until section 106
consultation is completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days,
the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps. (e) Prospective permittees should be aware
that section 110k of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306113) prevents the Corps from granting a permit or other
assistance to an applicant who, with intent to avoid the requirements of section 106 of the NHPA, has
intentionally significantly adversely affected a historic property to which the permit would relate, or
having legal power to prevent it, allowed such significant adverse effect to occur, unless the Corps, after
consultation with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), determines that circumstances
justify granting such assistance despite the adverse effect created or permitted by the applicant. If
circumstances justify granting the assistance, the Corps is required to notify the ACHP and provide
documentation specifying the circumstances, the degree of damage to the integrity of any historic
properties affected, and proposed mitigation. This documentation must include any views obtained from
the applicant, SHPO/THPO, appropriate Indian tribes if the undertaking occurs on or affects historic
properties on tribal lands or affects properties of interest to those tribes, and other parties known to have a
legitimate interest in the impacts to the permitted activity on historic properties.
21. Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains and Artifacts. If you discover any previously unknown
historic, cultural or archeological remains and artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this
permit, you must immediately notify the district engineer of what you have found, and to the maximum
extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and artifacts until the required
coordination has been completed. The district engineer will initiate the Federal, Tribal, and state
coordination required to determine if the items or remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is
eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
22. Designated Critical Resource Waters. Critical resource waters include, NOAA-managed marine
sanctuaries and marine monuments, and National Estuarine Research Reserves. The district engineer may
designate, after notice and opportunity for public comment, additional waters officially designated by a
state as having particular environmental or ecological significance, such as outstanding national resource
waters or state natural heritage sites. The district engineer may also designate additional critical resource
waters after notice and opportunity for public comment. (a) Discharges of dredged or fill material into
waters of the United States are not authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43,
44, 49, 50, 51, and 52 for any activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, including
wetlands adjacent to such waters. (b) For NWPs 3, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36,
37, 38, and 54, notification is required in accordance with general condition 32, for any activity proposed
in the designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The district
engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the impacts to the
critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.
23. Mitigation. The district engineer will consider the following factors when determining appropriate and
practicable mitigation necessary to ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental
effects are no more than minimal: (a) The activity must be designed and constructed to avoid and
minimize adverse effects, both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum
7
extent practicable at the project site (i.e., on site). (b) Mitigation in all its forms (avoiding, minimizing,
rectifying, reducing, or compensating for resource losses) will be required to the extent necessary to
ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal.
(c) Compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-for-one ratio will be required for all wetland losses that
exceed 1/10-acre and require pre-construction notification, unless the district engineer determines in
writing that either some other form of mitigation would be more environmentally appropriate or the
adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than minimal, and provides an
activity-specific waiver of this requirement. For wetland losses of 1/10-acre or less that require pre-
construction notification, the district engineer may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory
mitigation is required to ensure that the activity results in only minimal adverse environmental effects.
(d) For losses of streams or other open waters that require pre-construction notification, the district
engineer may require compensatory mitigation to ensure that the activity results in no more than minimal
adverse environmental effects. Compensatory mitigation for losses of streams should be provided, if
practicable, through stream rehabilitation, enhancement, or preservation, since streams are difficult-to-
replace resources (see 33 CFR 332.3(e)(3)). (e) Compensatory mitigation plans for NWP activities in or
near streams or other open waters will normally include a requirement for the restoration or enhancement,
maintenance, and legal protection (e.g., conservation easements) of riparian areas next to open waters. In
some cases, the restoration or maintenance/protection of riparian areas may be the only compensatory
mitigation required. Restored riparian areas should consist of native species. The width of the required
riparian area will address documented water quality or aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the
riparian area will be 25 to 50 feet wide on each side of the stream, but the district engineer may require
slightly wider riparian areas to address documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. If it is not
possible to restore or maintain/protect a riparian area on both sides of a stream, or if the waterbody is a
lake or coastal waters, then restoring or maintaining/protecting a riparian area along a single bank or
shoreline may be sufficient. Where both wetlands and open waters exist on the project site, the district
engineer will determine the appropriate compensatory mitigation (e.g., riparian areas and/or wetlands
compensation) based on what is best for the aquatic environment on a watershed basis. In cases where
riparian areas are determined to be the most appropriate form of minimization or compensatory
mitigation, the district engineer may waive or reduce the requirement to provide wetland compensatory
mitigation for wetland losses. (f) Compensatory mitigation projects provided to offset losses of aquatic
resources must comply with the applicable provisions of 33 CFR part 332.
(1) The prospective permittee is responsible for proposing an appropriate compensatory mitigation
option if compensatory mitigation is necessary to ensure that the activity results in no more than
minimal adverse environmental effects. For the NWPs, the preferred mechanism for providing
compensatory mitigation is mitigation bank credits or in-lieu fee program credits (see 33 CFR
332.3(b)(2) and (3)). However, if an appropriate number and type of mitigation bank or in-lieu credits
are not available at the time the PCN is submitted to the district engineer, the district engineer may
approve the use of permittee-responsible mitigation. (2) The amount of compensatory mitigation
required by the district engineer must be sufficient to ensure that the authorized activity results in no
more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects (see 33 CFR
330.1(e)(3)). (See also 33 CFR 332.3(f)). (3) Since the likelihood of success is greater and the
impacts to potentially valuable uplands are reduced, aquatic resource restoration should be the first
compensatory mitigation option considered for permittee-responsible mitigation. (4) If permittee-
responsible mitigation is the proposed option, the prospective permittee is responsible for submitting
a mitigation plan. A conceptual or detailed mitigation plan may be used by the district engineer to
make the decision on the NWP verification request, but a final mitigation plan that addresses the
applicable requirements of 33 CFR 332.4(c)(2) through (14) must be approved by the district engineer
before the permittee begins work in waters of the United States, unless the district engineer
determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure
timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation (see 33 CFR 332.3(k)(3)). (5) If
mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program credits are the proposed option, the mitigation plan only needs
8
to address the baseline conditions at the impact site and the number of credits to be provided. (6)
Compensatory mitigation requirements (e.g., resource type and amount to be provided as
compensatory mitigation, site protection, ecological performance standards, monitoring requirements)
may be addressed through conditions added to the NWP authorization, instead of components of a
compensatory mitigation plan (see 33 CFR 332.4(c)(1)(ii)).
(g) Compensatory mitigation will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by the acreage limits
of the NWPs. For example, if an NWP has an acreage limit of 1/2-acre, it cannot be used to authorize any
NWP activity resulting in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of the United States, even if
compensatory mitigation is provided that replaces or restores some of the lost waters. However,
compensatory mitigation can and should be used, as necessary, to ensure that an NWP activity already
meeting the established acreage limits also satisfies the no more than minimal impact requirement for the
NWPs. (h) Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in-lieu fee programs, or permittee-
responsible mitigation. When developing a compensatory mitigation proposal, the permittee must
consider appropriate and practicable options consistent with the framework at 33 CFR 332.3(b). For
activities resulting in the loss of marine or estuarine resources, permittee-responsible mitigation may be
environmentally preferable if there are no mitigation banks or in-lieu fee programs in the area that have
marine or estuarine credits available for sale or transfer to the permittee. For permittee-responsible
mitigation, the special conditions of the NWP verification must clearly indicate the party or parties
responsible for the implementation and performance of the compensatory mitigation project, and, if
required, its long-term management. (i) Where certain functions and services of waters of the United
States are permanently adversely affected by a regulated activity, such as discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the United States that will convert a forested or scrub-shrub wetland to a
herbaceous wetland in a permanently maintained utility line right-of-way, mitigation may be required to
reduce the adverse environmental effects of the activity to the no more than minimal level.
24. Safety of Impoundment Structures. To ensure that all impoundment structures are safely designed,
the district engineer may require non-Federal applicants to demonstrate that the structures comply with
established state dam safety criteria or have been designed by qualified persons. The district engineer may
also require documentation that the design has been independently reviewed by similarly qualified
persons, and appropriate modifications made to ensure safety.
25. Water Quality. Where States and authorized Tribes, or EPA where applicable, have not previously
certified compliance of an NWP with CWA section 401, individual 401 Water Quality Certification must
be obtained or waived (see 33 CFR 330.4(c)). The district engineer or State or Tribe may require
additional water quality management measures to ensure that the authorized activity does not result in
more than minimal degradation of water quality.
26. Coastal Zone Management. In coastal states where an NWP has not previously received a state coastal
zone management consistency concurrence, an individual state coastal zone management consistency
concurrence must be obtained, or a presumption of concurrence must occur (see 33 CFR 330.4(d)). The
district engineer or a State may require additional measures to ensure that the authorized activity is
consistent with state coastal zone management requirements.
27. Regional and Case-By-Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional conditions that
may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with any case specific
conditions added by the Corps or by the state, Indian Tribe, or U.S. EPA in its section 401 Water Quality
Certification, or by the state in its Coastal Zone Management Act consistency determination.
28. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and complete
project is prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the United States authorized by the NWPs
does not exceed the acreage limit of the NWP with the highest specified acreage limit. For example, if a
9
road crossing over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14, with associated bank stabilization
authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters of the United States for the total project
cannot exceed 1/3-acre.
29. Transfer of Nationwide Permit Verifications. If the permittee sells the property associated with a
nationwide permit verification, the permittee may transfer the nationwide permit verification to the new
owner by submitting a letter to the appropriate Corps district office to validate the transfer. A copy of the
nationwide permit verification must be attached to the letter, and the letter must contain the following
statement and signature: “When the structures or work authorized by this nationwide permit are still in
existence at the time the property is transferred, the terms and conditions of this nationwide permit,
including any special conditions, will continue to be binding on the new owner(s) of the property. To
validate the transfer of this nationwide permit and the associated liabilities associated with compliance
with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below.”
_____________________________________________
(Transferee)

(Date)
30. Compliance Certification. Each permittee who receives an NWP verification letter from the Corps
must provide a signed certification documenting completion of the authorized activity and
implementation of any required compensatory mitigation. The success of any required permittee-
responsible mitigation, including the achievement of ecological performance standards, will be addressed
separately by the district engineer. The Corps will provide the permittee the certification document with
the NWP verification letter. The certification document will include: (a) A statement that the authorized
activity was done in accordance with the NWP authorization, including any general, regional, or activity-
specific conditions; (b) A statement that the implementation of any required compensatory mitigation was
completed in accordance with the permit conditions. If credits from a mitigation bank or in-lieu fee
program are used to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements, the certification must include the
documentation required by 33 CFR 332.3(l)(3) to confirm that the permittee secured the appropriate
number and resource type of credits; and (c) The signature of the permittee certifying the completion of
the activity and mitigation. The completed certification document must be submitted to the district
engineer within 30 days of completion of the authorized activity or the implementation of any required
compensatory mitigation, whichever occurs later.
31. Activities Affecting Structures or Works Built by the United States. If an NWP activity also requires
permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408 because it will alter or temporarily or permanently
occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) federally authorized Civil Works project (a
“USACE project”), the prospective permittee must submit a pre-construction notification. See paragraph
(b)(10) of general condition 32. An activity that requires section 408 permission is not authorized by
NWP until the appropriate Corps office issues the section 408 permission to alter, occupy, or use the
USACE project, and the district engineer issues a written NWP verification.
32. Pre-Construction Notification. (a) Timing. Where required by the terms of the NWP, the prospective
permittee must notify the district engineer by submitting a pre-construction notification (PCN) as early as
possible. The district engineer must determine if the PCN is complete within 30 calendar days of the date
of receipt and, if the PCN is determined to be incomplete, notify the prospective permittee within that 30
day period to request the additional information necessary to make the PCN complete. The request must
specify the information needed to make the PCN complete. As a general rule, district engineers will
request additional information necessary to make the PCN complete only once. However, if the
prospective permittee does not provide all of the requested information, then the district engineer will
notify the prospective permittee that the PCN is still incomplete and the PCN review process will not
10
commence until all of the requested information has been received by the district engineer. The
prospective permittee shall not begin the activity until either:
(1) He or she is notified in writing by the district engineer that the activity may proceed under the
NWP with any special conditions imposed by the district or division engineer; or
(2) 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer’s receipt of the complete PCN and the
prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division engineer. However, if
the permittee was required to notify the Corps pursuant to general condition 18 that listed species or
critical habitat might be affected or are in the vicinity of the activity, or to notify the Corps pursuant to
general condition 20 that the activity might have the potential to cause effects to historic properties, the
permittee cannot begin the activity until receiving written notification from the Corps that there is “no
effect” on listed species or “no potential to cause effects” on historic properties, or that any consultation
required under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(f)) and/or section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)) has been completed. Also, work cannot begin
under NWPs 21, 49, or 50 until the permittee has received written approval from the Corps. If the
proposed activity requires a written waiver to exceed specified limits of an NWP, the permittee may not
begin the activity until the district engineer issues the waiver. If the district or division engineer notifies
the permittee in writing that an individual permit is required within 45 calendar days of receipt of a
complete PCN, the permittee cannot begin the activity until an individual permit has been obtained.
Subsequently, the permittee’s right to proceed under the NWP may be modified, suspended, or revoked
only in accordance with the procedure set forth in 33 CFR 330.5(d)(2).
(b) Contents of Pre-Construction Notification: The PCN must be in writing and include the following
information:
(1) Name, address and telephone numbers of the prospective permittee;
(2) Location of the proposed activity;
(3) Identify the specific NWP or NWP(s) the prospective permittee wants to use to authorize
the proposed activity;
(4) A description of the proposed activity; the activity’s purpose; direct and indirect adverse
environmental effects the activity would cause, including the anticipated amount of loss of wetlands,
other special aquatic sites, and other waters expected to result from the NWP activity, in acres, linear
feet, or other appropriate unit of measure; a description of any proposed mitigation measures intended
to reduce the adverse environmental effects caused by the proposed activity; and any other NWP(s),
regional general permit(s), or individual permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of
the proposed project or any related activity, including other separate and distant crossings for linear
projects that require Department of the Army authorization but do not require pre-construction
notification. The description of the proposed activity and any proposed mitigation measures should be
sufficiently detailed to allow the district engineer to determine that the adverse environmental effects
of the activity will be no more than minimal and to determine the need for compensatory mitigation
or other mitigation measures. For single and complete linear projects, the PCN must include the
quantity of anticipated losses of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters for each single
and complete crossing of those wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Sketches
should be provided when necessary to show that the activity complies with the terms of the NWP.
(Sketches usually clarify the activity and when provided results in a quicker decision. Sketches should
contain sufficient detail to provide an illustrative description of the proposed activity (e.g., a
conceptual plan), but do not need to be detailed engineering plans);
(5) The PCN must include a delineation of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other
waters, such as lakes and ponds, and perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral streams, on the project
site. Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the
Corps. The permittee may ask the Corps to delineate the special aquatic sites and other waters on the
project site, but there may be a delay if the Corps does the delineation, especially if the project site is
large or contains many wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Furthermore, the 45
day period will not start until the delineation has been submitted to or completed by the Corps, as
appropriate;
11
(6) If the proposed activity will result in the loss of greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands and a
PCN is required, the prospective permittee must submit a statement describing how the mitigation
requirement will be satisfied, or explaining why the adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal and why compensatory mitigation should not be required. As an alternative, the prospective
permittee may submit a conceptual or detailed mitigation plan.
(7) For non-Federal permittees, if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be
affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated critical habitat,
the PCN must include the name(s) of those endangered or threatened species that might be affected
by the proposed activity or utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the
proposed activity. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal permittees
must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with the Endangered Species Act;
(8) For non-Federal permittees, if the NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects
to a historic property listed on, determined to be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for
listing on, the National Register of Historic Places, the PCN must state which historic property might
have the potential to be affected by the proposed activity or include a vicinity map indicating the
location of the historic property. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal
permittees must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act;
(9) For an activity that will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River
System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, the PCN must identify the Wild and Scenic River
or the “study river” (see general condition 16); and
(10) For an activity that requires permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408
because it will alter or temporarily or permanently occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
federally authorized civil works project, the pre-construction notification must include a statement
confirming that the project proponent has submitted a written request for section 408 permission from
the Corps office having jurisdiction over that USACE project.
(c) Form of Pre-Construction Notification: The standard individual permit application form (Form ENG
4345) may be used, but the completed application form must clearly indicate that it is an NWP PCN and
must include all of the applicable information required in paragraphs (b)(1) through (10) of this general
condition. A letter containing the required information may also be used. Applicants may provide
electronic files of PCNs and supporting materials if the district engineer has established tools and
procedures for electronic submittals. (d) Agency Coordination: (1) The district engineer will consider any
comments from Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms
and conditions of the NWPs and the need for mitigation to reduce the activity’s adverse environmental
effects so that they are no more than minimal. (2) Agency coordination is required for: (i) all NWP
activities that require pre-construction notification and result in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters
of the United States; (ii) NWP 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, and 52 activities that require pre-
construction notification and will result in the loss of greater than 300 linear feet of stream bed; (iii) NWP
13 activities in excess of 500 linear feet, fills greater than one cubic yard per running foot, or involve
discharges of dredged or fill material into special aquatic sites; and (iv) NWP 54 activities in excess of
500 linear feet, or that extend into the waterbody more than 30 feet from the mean low water line in tidal
waters or the ordinary high water mark in the Great Lakes. (3) When agency coordination is required, the
district engineer will immediately provide (e.g., via e-mail, facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or
other expeditious manner) a copy of the complete PCN to the appropriate Federal or state offices (FWS,
state natural resource or water quality agency, EPA, and, if appropriate, the NMFS). With the exception
of NWP 37, these agencies will have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted to notify
the district engineer via telephone, facsimile transmission, or e-mail that they intend to provide
substantive, site-specific comments. The comments must explain why the agency believes the adverse
environmental effects will be more than minimal. If so contacted by an agency, the district engineer will
wait an additional 15 calendar days before making a decision on the pre-construction notification. The
district engineer will fully consider agency comments received within the specified time frame
12
concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the NWPs, including the
need for mitigation to ensure the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more
than minimal. The district engineer will provide no response to the resource agency, except as provided
below. The district engineer will indicate in the administrative record associated with each pre-
construction notification that the resource agencies’ concerns were considered. For NWP 37, the
emergency watershed protection and rehabilitation activity may proceed immediately in cases where there
is an unacceptable hazard to life or a significant loss of property or economic hardship will occur. The
district engineer will consider any comments received to decide whether the NWP 37 authorization
should be modified, suspended, or revoked in accordance with the procedures at 33 CFR 330.5.
(4) In cases of where the prospective permittee is not a Federal agency, the district engineer will provide a
response to NMFS within 30 calendar days of receipt of any Essential Fish Habitat conservation
recommendations, as required by section 305(b)(4)(B) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation
and Management Act. (5) Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps with either electronic files or
multiple copies of pre-construction notifications to expedite agency coordination.
District Engineer’s Decision: 1. In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the district engineer will
determine whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more than minimal individual or
cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the public interest. If a project
proponent requests authorization by a specific NWP, the district engineer should issue the NWP
verification for that activity if it meets the terms and conditions of that NWP, unless he or she determines,
after considering mitigation, that the proposed activity will result in more than minimal individual and
cumulative adverse effects on the aquatic environment and other aspects of the public interest and
exercises discretionary authority to require an individual permit for the proposed activity. For a linear
project, this determination will include an evaluation of the individual crossings of waters of the United
States to determine whether they individually satisfy the terms and conditions of the NWP(s), as well as
the cumulative effects caused by all of the crossings authorized by NWP. If an applicant requests a waiver
of the 300 linear foot limit on impacts to streams or of an otherwise applicable limit, as provided for in
NWPs 13, 21, 29, 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, 52, or 54, the district engineer will only grant the waiver
upon a written determination that the NWP activity will result in only minimal individual and cumulative
adverse environmental effects. For those NWPs that have a waivable 300 linear foot limit for losses of
intermittent and ephemeral stream bed and a 1/2-acre limit (i.e., NWPs 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51,
and 52), the loss of intermittent and ephemeral stream bed, plus any other losses of jurisdictional waters
and wetlands, cannot exceed 1/2-acre. 2. When making minimal adverse environmental effects
determinations the district engineer will consider the direct and indirect effects caused by the NWP
activity. He or she will also consider the cumulative adverse environmental effects caused by activities
authorized by NWP and whether those cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal. The district engineer will also consider site specific factors, such as the environmental setting in
the vicinity of the NWP activity, the type of resource that will be affected by the NWP activity, the
functions provided by the aquatic resources that will be affected by the NWP activity, the degree or
magnitude to which the aquatic resources perform those functions, the extent that aquatic resource
functions will be lost as a result of the NWP activity (e.g., partial or complete loss), the duration of the
adverse effects (temporary or permanent), the importance of the aquatic resource functions to the region
(e.g., watershed or ecoregion), and mitigation required by the district engineer. If an appropriate
functional or condition assessment method is available and practicable to use, that assessment method
may be used by the district engineer to assist in the minimal adverse environmental effects determination.
The district engineer may add case-specific special conditions to the NWP authorization to address site-
specific environmental concerns. 3. If the proposed activity requires a PCN and will result in a loss of
greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands, the prospective permittee should submit a mitigation proposal with the
PCN. Applicants may also propose compensatory mitigation for NWP activities with smaller impacts, or
for impacts to other types of waters (e.g., streams). The district engineer will consider any proposed
compensatory mitigation or other mitigation measures the applicant has included in the proposal in
determining whether the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than
13
minimal. The compensatory mitigation proposal may be either conceptual or detailed. If the district
engineer determines that the activity complies with the terms and conditions of the NWP and that the
adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal, after considering mitigation, the district
engineer will notify the permittee and include any activity-specific conditions in the NWP verification the
district engineer deems necessary. Conditions for compensatory mitigation requirements must comply
with the appropriate provisions at 33 CFR 332.3(k). The district engineer must approve the final
mitigation plan before the permittee commences work in waters of the United States, unless the district
engineer determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to
ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation. If the prospective permittee elects to
submit a compensatory mitigation plan with the PCN, the district engineer will expeditiously review the
proposed compensatory mitigation plan. The district engineer must review the proposed compensatory
mitigation plan within 45 calendar days of receiving a complete PCN and determine whether the proposed
mitigation would ensure the NWP activity results in no more than minimal adverse environmental effects.
If the net adverse environmental effects of the NWP activity (after consideration of the mitigation
proposal) are determined by the district engineer to be no more than minimal, the district engineer will
provide a timely written response to the applicant. The response will state that the NWP activity can
proceed under the terms and conditions of the NWP, including any activity-specific conditions added to
the NWP authorization by the district engineer. 4. If the district engineer determines that the adverse
environmental effects of the proposed activity are more than minimal, then the district engineer will
notify the applicant either: (a) that the activity does not qualify for authorization under the NWP and
instruct the applicant on the procedures to seek authorization under an individual permit; (b) that the
activity is authorized under the NWP subject to the applicant’s submission of a mitigation plan that would
reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than minimal; or (c) that the activity is
authorized under the NWP with specific modifications or conditions. Where the district engineer
determines that mitigation is required to ensure no more than minimal adverse environmental effects, the
activity will be authorized within the 45-day PCN period (unless additional time is required to comply
with general conditions 18, 20, and/or 31, or to evaluate PCNs for activities authorized by NWPs 21, 49,
and 50), with activity-specific conditions that state the mitigation requirements. The authorization will
include the necessary conceptual or detailed mitigation plan or a requirement that the applicant submit a
mitigation plan that would reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than
minimal. When compensatory mitigation is required, no work in waters of the United States may occur
until the district engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan or has determined that prior approval of
a final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required
compensatory mitigation.
Further Information: 1. District Engineers have authority to determine if an activity complies with the
terms and conditions of an NWP. 2. NWPs do not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state, or local
permits, approvals, or authorizations required by law. 3. NWPs do not grant any property rights or
exclusive privileges. 4. NWPs do not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others. 5. NWPs do
not authorize interference with any existing or proposed Federal project (see general condition 31).
C. CORPS SEATTLE DISTRICT REGIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS: The following conditions
apply to all NWPs for the Seattle District in Washington State, unless specified.
1. Project Drawings: Drawings must be submitted with pre-construction notification (PCN). Drawings
must provide a clear understanding of the proposed project, and how waters of the U.S. will be affected.
Drawings must be originals and not reduced copies of large-scale plans. Engineering drawings are not
required. Existing and proposed site conditions (manmade and landscape features) must be drawn to
scale.
2. Aquatic Resources Requiring Special Protection: Activities resulting in a loss of waters of the
United States in mature forested wetlands, bogs and peatlands, aspen-dominated wetlands, alkali
14
wetlands, vernal pools, camas prairie wetlands, estuarine wetlands, wetlands in coastal lagoons, and
wetlands in dunal systems along the Washington coast cannot be authorized by a NWP, except by the
following NWPs:
NWP 3 – Maintenance
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances
NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement Actions
NWP 38 – Cleanup of Hazardous and Toxic Waste
In order to use one of the above-referenced NWPs in any of the aquatic resources requiring special
protection, prospective permittees must submit a PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general
condition 32) and obtain written authorization before commencing work.
3. New Bank Stabilization in Tidal Waters of Puget Sound: Activities involving new bank
stabilization in tidal waters in Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs)
8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 (within the areas identified on Figures 1a through 1e on Corps website) cannot be
authorized by NWP.
4. Commencement Bay: The following NWPs may not be used to authorize activities located in the
Commencement Bay Study Area (see Figure 2 on Corps website):
NWP 12 – Utility Line Activities (substations)
NWP 13 – Bank Stabilization
NWP 14 – Linear Transportation Projects
NWP 23 – Approved Categorical Exclusions
NWP 29 – Residential Developments
NWP 39 – Commercial and Institutional Developments
NWP 40 – Agricultural Activities
NWP 41 – Reshaping Existing Drainage Ditches
NWP 42 – Recreational Facilities
NWP 43 – Stormwater and Wastewater Management Facilities
5. Bank Stabilization: All projects including new or maintenance bank stabilization activities require
PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). For new bank stabilization projects only,
the following must be submitted to the Corps of Engineers:
a. The cause of the erosion and the distance of any existing structures from the area(s) being
stabilized.
b. The type and length of existing bank stabilization within 300 feet of the proposed project.
c. A description of current conditions and expected post-project conditions in the waterbody.
d. A statement describing how the project incorporates elements avoiding and minimizing adverse
environmental effects to the aquatic environment and nearshore riparian area, including vegetation
impacts in the waterbody.
In addition to a. through d., the results from any relevant geotechnical investigations can be submitted
with the PCN if it describes current or expected conditions in the waterbody.
6. Crossings of Waters of the United States: Any project including installing, replacing, or modifying
crossings of waters of the United States, such as culverts or bridges, requires submittal of a PCN to the
Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S.
where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project must apply the stream simulation
design method from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife located in the Water Crossing
Design Guidelines (2013), or a design method which provides passage at all life stages at all flows where
the salmonid species would naturally seek passage. If the stream simulation design method is not applied
for a culvert where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project proponent must provide a
rationale in the PCN sufficient to establish one of the following:
a. The existence of extraordinary site conditions.
15
b. How the proposed design will provide equivalent or better fish passage and fisheries habitat
benefits than the stream simulation design method.
If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S. where salmonid species are present or could be present,
project proponents must provide a monitoring plan with the PCN that specifies how the proposed culvert
will be assessed over a five-year period from the time of construction completion to ensure its
effectiveness in providing passage at all life stages at all flows where the salmonid species would
naturally seek passage. Culverts installed under emergency authorization that do not meet the above
design criteria will be required to meet the above design criteria to receive an after-the-fact nationwide
permit verification.
7. Stream Loss: A PCN is required for all activities that result in the loss of any linear feet of stream
beds. No activity shall result in the loss of any linear feet of perennial stream beds or the loss of greater
than 300 linear feet of intermittent and/or ephemeral stream beds. A stream may be rerouted if it is
designed in a manner that maintains or restores hydrologic, ecologic, and geomorphic stream processes,
provided there is not a reduction in the linear feet of stream bed. Streams include brooks, creeks, rivers,
and historical waters of the U.S. that have been channelized into ditches. This condition does not apply to
ditches constructed in uplands. Stream loss restrictions may be waived by the district engineer on a case-
by-case basis provided the activities result in net increases of aquatic resource functions and services.
8. Mitigation: Pre-construction notification is required for any project that will result in permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. In addition to the requirements of General Condition 23
(Mitigation), compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-to-one ratio will be required for all permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. When a PCN is required for wetland losses less than 1,000
square feet, the Corps of Engineers may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory mitigation
is required to ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
Compensatory mitigation for impacts to marine waters, lakes, and streams will be determined on a case-
by-case basis. If temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. exceed six months, the Corps of Engineers may
require compensatory mitigation for temporal effects.
9. Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act – Essential Fish Habitat
Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) is defined as those waters and substrate necessary to fish for spawning,
breeding, feeding, or growth to maturity. If EFH may be adversely affected by a proposed activity, the
prospective permittee must provide a written EFH assessment with an analysis of the effects of the
proposed action on EFH. The assessment must identify the type(s) of essential fish habitat (i.e., Pacific
salmon, groundfish, and/or coastal-pelagic species) that may be affected. If the Corps of Engineers
determines the project will adversely affect EFH, consultation with NOAA Fisheries will be required.
Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. If PCN is required for the proposed
activity, Federal permittees must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements.
10. Forage Fish: For projects in forage fish spawning habitat, in-water work must occur within
designated forage fish work windows, or when forage fish are not spawning. If working outside of a
designated work window, or if forage fish work windows are closed year round, work may occur if the
work window restriction is released for a period of time after a forage fish spawning survey has been
conducted by a biologist approved by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW).
Forage fish species with designated in-water work windows include Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes
hexapterus), Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi), and surf smelt (Hypomesus pretiosus). This RGC does not
apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific regional conditions
for NWP 48.
16
11. Notification of Permit Requirements: The permittee must provide a copy of the nationwide permit
authorization letter, conditions, and permit drawings to all contractors and any other parties performing
the authorized work prior to the commencement of any work in waters of the U.S. The permittee must
ensure all appropriate contractors and any other parties performing the authorized work at the project site
have read and understand relevant NWP conditions as well as plans, approvals, and documents referenced
in the NWP letter. A copy of these documents must be maintained onsite throughout the duration of
construction.
12. Construction Boundaries: Permittees must clearly mark all construction area boundaries before
beginning work on projects that involve grading or placement of fill. Boundary markers and/or
construction fencing must be maintained and clearly visible for the duration of construction. Permittees
should avoid and minimize removal of native vegetation (including submerged aquatic vegetation) to the
maximum extent possible.
13. Temporary Impacts and Site Restoration
a. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must not exceed six months unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver by the district engineer. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must
be identified in the PCN.
b. No more than 1/2 acre of waters of the U.S. may be temporarily filled unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver from the district engineer (temporary fills do not affect specified limits
for loss of waters associated with specific nationwide permits).
c. Native soils removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for site restoration. Restoration of temporarily disturbed areas must include returning the area to pre-
project ground surface contours. If native soil is not available from the project site for restoration,
suitable clean soil of the same textural class may be used. Other soils may be used only if identified in
the PCN.
d. The permittee must revegetate disturbed areas with native plant species sufficient in number, spacing,
and diversity to restore affected functions. A maintenance and monitoring plan commensurate with
the impacts, may be required. Revegetation must begin as soon as site conditions allow within the
same growing season as the disturbance unless the schedule is approved by the Corps of Engineers.
Native plants removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for revegetation when feasible. Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control measures must be removed
as soon as the area has established vegetation sufficient to control erosion and sediment.
e. If the Corps determines the project will result in temporary impacts of submerged aquatic vegetation
(SAV) that are more than minimal, a monitoring plan must be submitted. If recovery is not achieved
by the end of the monitoring period, contingencies must be implemented, and additional monitoring
will be required.
This RGC does not apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific
regional conditions for NWP 48.
D. CORPS REGIONAL SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP:
1. Private residential driveways in waters of the U.S. with footprints wider than 22 feet
or longer than 200 feet are not authorized by this NWP. For this requirement, “footprint” refers to
the bottom width of the roadway fill prism.
2. A pre-construction notification must be submitted to the district engineer (see NWP general
condition 32) for linear transportation project crossings in tidal waters.
E. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: GENERAL CONDITIONS
17
In addition to all the Corps National and Seattle Districts’ Regional permit conditions, the following State
General Section 401 Water Quality Certification (Section 401) conditions apply to all Nationwide Permits
whether certified or partially certified in the State of Washington.
1. For in-water construction activities. Ecology Section 401 review is required for projects or
activities authorized under NWPs that will cause, or may be likely to cause or contribute to an exceedance
of a State water quality standard (Chapter 173-201A WAC) or sediment management standard (Chapter
173-204 WAC). State water quality standards and sediment management standards are available on
Ecology’s website. Note: In-water activities include any activity within a wetland and/or activities below
the ordinary high water mark (OHWM).
2. Projects or Activities Discharging to Impaired Waters. Ecology Section 401 review is required for
projects or activities authorized under NWPs if the project or activity will occur in a 303(d) listed
segment of a waterbody or upstream of a listed segment and may result in further exceedances of the
specific listed parameter. To determine if your project or activity is in a 303(d) listed segment of a
waterbody, visit Ecology’s Water Quality Assessment webpage for maps and search tools.
3. Application. For projects or activities that will require Ecology Section 401 review, applicants must
provide Ecology with a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (JARPA) along with the
documentation provided to the Corps, as described in National General Condition 32, Pre-Construction
Notification, including, when applicable: (a) A description of the project, including site plans, project
purpose, direct and indirect adverse environmental effects the project would cause, best management
practices (BMPs), and any other Department of the Army or federal agency permits used or intended to be
used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any related activity. (b) Drawings indicating the
Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM), delineation of special aquatic sites and other waters of the state.
Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the Corps and
shall include Ecology’s Wetland Rating form. Wetland rating forms are subject to review and verification
by Ecology staff. Guidance for determining the OHWM is available on Ecology’s website. (c) A
statement describing how the mitigation requirement will be satisfied. A conceptual or detailed mitigation
or restoration plan may be submitted. See State General Condition 5 for details on mitigation
requirements. (d) Other applicable requirements of Corps Nationwide Permit General Condition 32,
Corps Regional Conditions, or notification conditions of the applicable NWP. (e) Within 180 calendar
days from receipt of applicable documents noted above and a copy of the final authorization letter from
the Corps providing coverage for a proposed project or activity under the NWP Program Ecology will
provide the applicant notice of whether an individual Section 401 will be required for the project. If
Ecology fails to act within a year after receipt of both of these documents, Section 401 is presumed
waived.
4. Aquatic resources requiring special protection. Certain aquatic resources are unique, difficult-to-
replace components of the aquatic environment in Washington State. Activities that would affect these
resources must be avoided to the greatest extent possible. Compensating for adverse impacts to high
value aquatic resources is typically difficult, prohibitively expensive, and may not be possible in some
landscape settings. Ecology Section 401 review is required for activities in or affecting the following
aquatic resources (and not prohibited by Seattle District Regional General Condition): (a) Wetlands with
special characteristics (as defined in the Washington State Wetland Rating Systems for western and
eastern Washington, Ecology Publications #14-06-029 and #14-06-030):
• Estuarine wetlands.
• Wetlands of High Conservation Value.
• Bogs.
• Old-growth and mature forested wetlands.
• Wetlands in coastal lagoons.
• Interdunal wetlands.
18
• Vernal pools.
• Alkali wetlands.
(b) Fens, aspen-dominated wetlands, camas prairie wetlands. (c) Marine water with eelgrass (Zostera
marina) beds (except for NWP 48). (d) Category I wetlands. (e) Category II wetlands with a habitat score
≥ 8 points. This State General Condition does not apply to the following Nationwide Permits:
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances, NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement
Actions
5. Mitigation. Applicants are required to show that they have followed the mitigation sequence and
have first avoided and minimized impacts to aquatic resources wherever practicable. For projects
requiring Ecology Section 401 review with unavoidable impacts to aquatics resources, adequate
compensatory mitigation must be provided.
(a) Wetland mitigation plans submitted for Ecology review and approval shall be based on the most
current guidance provided in Wetland Mitigation in Washington State, Parts 1 and 2 (available on
Ecology’s website) and shall, at a minimum, include the following:
i. A description of the measures taken to avoid and minimize impacts to wetlands and other waters of
the U.S.
ii. The nature of the proposed impacts (i.e., acreage of wetlands and functions lost or degraded).
iii. The rationale for the mitigation site that was selected.
iv. The goals and objectives of the compensatory mitigation project.
v. How the mitigation project will be accomplished, including construction sequencing, best
management practices to protect water quality, proposed performance standards for measuring success
and the proposed buffer widths.
vi. How it will be maintained and monitored to assess progress towards goals and objectives.
Monitoring will generally be required for a minimum of five years. For forested and scrub-shrub
wetlands, 10 years of monitoring will often be necessary.
vii. How the compensatory mitigation site will be legally protected for the long term.
Refer to Wetland Mitigation in Washington State – Part 2: Developing Mitigation Plans (Ecology
Publication #06-06-011b) and Selecting Wetland Mitigation Sites Using a Watershed Approach (Ecology
Publications #09-06-032 (Western Washington) and #10-06-007 (Eastern Washington)) for guidance on
selecting suitable mitigation sites and developing mitigation plans. Ecology encourages the use of
alternative mitigation approaches, including credit/debit methodology, advance mitigation, and other
programmatic approach such as mitigation banks and in-lieu fee programs. If you are interested in
proposing use of an alternative mitigation approach, consult with the appropriate Ecology regional staff
person. Information on alternative mitigation approaches is available on Ecology’s website.
(b) Mitigation for other aquatic resource impacts will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
6. Temporary Fills. Ecology Section 401 review is required for any project or activity with temporary
fill in wetlands or other waters of the state for more than 90 days, unless the applicant has received
written approval from Ecology. Note: This State General Condition does not apply to projects or activities
authorized under NWP 33, Temporary Construction, Access, and Dewatering
7. Stormwater pollution prevention: All projects that involve land disturbance or impervious surfaces
must implement stormwater pollution prevention or control measures to avoid discharge of pollutants in
stormwater runoff to waters of the State.
(a) For land disturbances during construction, the applicant must obtain and implement permits (e.g.,
Construction Stormwater General Permit) where required and follow Ecology’s current stormwater
manual.
(b) Following construction, prevention or treatment of on-going stormwater runoff from impervious
surfaces shall be provided.
Ecology’s Stormwater Management and Design Manuals and stormwater permit information are available
on Ecology’s website.
19
8. State Section 401 Review for PCNs not receiving 45-day response from the Seattle District. In the
event the Seattle District Corps does not issue a NWP authorization letter within 45 calendar days of
receipt of a complete pre-construction notification, the applicant must contact Ecology for Section 401
review prior to commencing work.
F. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP:

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
This report summarizes our investigations, analysis, and geotechnical design recommendations for the
Summit Landsburg Road Culvert Replacement project. The project site is located on SE Summit Landsburg
Road approximately 1,480 feet north of its intersection with SE Kent-Kangley Road as shown on the Vicinity
Map, Figure 1. We understand the project site is within a small noncontiguous area of the City of Kent,
which is surrounded by the City of Maple Valley and unincorporated King County. Our understanding of the
project is based on discussions with and information provided by City of Kent and the project structural
engineer (Otak).
We understand that the existing culvert system consists of three 36-inch diameter by 35-foot long culverts
that are barriers to fish passage. We understand that the existing culverts will be replaced with a system
that can accommodate fish passage. Based on our discussions with Otak, we understand that a new bridge
structure with a span length on the order of 50 feet will we constructed and span over the existing creek.
The new bridge structure will be designed based on the 2014 American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Load Resistance and Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications
(AASHTO LRFD). We anticipate that the existing culverts will be removed, and the stream bed will be
restored beneath the new bridge. We anticipate that existing pavements on Summit Landsburg Road within
and adjacent to the project site will likely either need to be repaired and overlaid or fully replaced as part
of this project.
Our services are being provided in accordance with our signed agreement executed April 22, 2019.
2.0 SITE CONDITIONS
2.1. Surface Conditions
SE Summit Landsburg Road is an asphalt paved two-lane roadway with gravel shoulders. Within the project
area the roadway is oriented northeast-southwest. Rock Creek crosses below the roadway and generally
flows southeast to northwest. The project site is bordered by residential parcels. The parcels on the north
and southeast sides of the culvert location are developed. The parcel to the southwest of the culvert is
undeveloped. The areas around the creek and roadway within the project area are densely vegetated with
underbrush and young to mature trees. The existing creek bed appears to be about 8 feet below the
roadway elevation.
2.2. Geologic Setting
We reviewed the published Geologic Map of the Black Diamond Quadrangle, King County, Washington
(Mullineaux 1965). The map indicates the site is underlain by Proglacial stratified drift (glacial drift),
outwash plain deposits (Qpo). This unit is described as mostly well-sorted sand, gravel and cobbles
deposited by meltwater along and beyond the retreating front of the Puget glacial lobe. Ground moraine
deposits (Qgt) are mapped in the near site vicinity and are described to consist of glacial till. Glacial till
typically consists of a highly compact mixture of clay, silt, sand and gravel deposited below glacial ice. Intact
deposits of glacial till are typically dense to very dense although the upper few feet of till can be weathered
and relatively less dense. Based on review of the geologic map, it appears that glacial drift deposits were
deposited over glacial till in the project area.

2.3. Subsurface Explorations and Laboratory Testing
Subsurface conditions were explored by drilling two borings using hollow-stem auger methods. The borings
were advanced in the southwest bound lane of Summit Landsburg Road on either side of Rock Creek.
Boring B-1 was located on the southwest side of the creek crossing and was advanced to a depth of about
45 feet below ground surface (bgs). Boring B-2 was located on the northeast side of the creek crossing and
extended to an approximate depth of 35.5 feet bgs. The approximate location of each exploration is shown
in the Site Plan, Figure 2. Details regarding our subsurface exploration program, including summary logs
are included in Appendix A.
Select samples from our explorations were tested in our laboratory to confirm field classifications and
correlate with engineering properties. Details of our laboratory testing program and the testing results are
provided in Appendix A.
2.4. Subsurface Conditions
Asphalt pavement thickness in our borings was on the order of 12 inches. Below the asphalt, we observed
what we interpret to be roadway base comprised of very dense sand with gravel and dense gravel with silt,
and cobbles. Below the roadway base material, we observed what we interpret to be fill extending to around
5 feet bgs in B-1 and 6 feet bgs in B-2. Observed fill generally consisted of dense gravel with silt and sand
and loose to medium dense silty gravel with sand.
Below the fill in our borings we observed what we interpret to be glacial drift. Glacial drift observed in our
explorations typically consisted of medium dense to very dense gravel with sand and varying amounts of
silt and cobbles. Within the glacial drift we observed intermittent layering of sand with variable silt content.
In B-1, glacial drift soils extended to a depth of about 40 feet bgs and were underlain by what we interpret
to be glacial till. Glacial till typically consisted of dense to very dense silty sand with gravel and varying
amounts of cobbles. Cobbles in the glacial drift and glacial till were both observed directly and inferred by
drilling action. B-1 met practical refusal in glacial till at a depth of about 45 feet bgs. B-2 met practical
refusal within glacial drift soils at an approximate depth of 35.5 feet bgs.
We observed groundwater at about 10 feet bgs in B-1 and around 19 feet bgs in B-2 at the time of drilling.
We anticipate that groundwater levels will fluctuate throughout the year in response to water levels in the
creek and precipitation. In our experience groundwater levels are typically highest during the winter and
spring months.
3.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
3.1. Primary Geotechnical Considerations
Based on our understanding of the project, the explorations performed for this study and our experience, it
is our opinion that the proposed improvements can be designed and constructed generally as envisioned
with regard to geotechnical considerations. A summary of the primary geotechnical considerations for the
project is provided below and is followed by our detailed recommendations.
■ We anticipate that the new bridge structure can be supported on shallow foundations bearing on glacial
drift soils. Fill, if present at the design foundation bearing surface elevation, should be removed and
replaced with compacted structural fill.

File No. 0410-205-00
■ We observed soils within the glacial drift deposits that could potentially liquify during the design
earthquake. The liquefiable layer identified is around 20 feet bgs. We expect that liquefaction-induced
surface settlements from this layer would be less than 1 inch.
■ Most of the soils observed at the site contain a significant amount of fines and could be difficult or
impossible to work with when wet or become easily disturbed if exposed to wet weather. Depending on
the intended use of the material and the prevailing conditions, it may be difficult to re-use site soils as
structural fill.
3.2. Seismic Design Considerations
3.2.1. General
We used map-based methods in conjunction with our explorations to develop seismic design parameters
in general accordance with the 2014 AASHTO LRFD methodology. The recommended seismic design
parameters are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1. SEISMIC DESIGN CRITERIA
AASHTO 2014 Seismic Design Parameters
Spectral Response Acceleration at Short Periods (SS) 0.74g
Spectral Response Acceleration at 1-Second Periods (S1) 0.18g
Site Class D
Design Peak Ground Acceleration (As) 0.37g
Design Spectral Response Acceleration at Short Periods (SDS) 0.906g
Design Spectral Response Acceleration at 1-Second Periods (SD1) 0.38g
3.2.2. Liquefaction
Liquefaction refers to a condition where vibration or shaking of the ground, usually from earthquake forces,
results in development of excess pore pressures in saturated soils and a subsequent loss of soil strength.
In general, soils that are susceptible to liquefaction include loose to medium dense “clean” to silty sands
and non-plastic silts that are below the water table. We evaluated the soil profile for liquefaction potential
using methods developed by Idriss and Boulanger (2008). This method compares the predicted cyclic shear
stress (CSS) induced by the design earthquake to the cyclic shear resistance (CSR) determined by
correlations with SPT blow counts. The ratio of the CSR to the CSS is the cyclic shear ratio and is considered
the factor of safety against liquefaction.
Based on the results of our liquefaction analysis we anticipate that the risk of liquefaction occurring at this
site is low. We observed a layer of soil around 20 feet bgs in B-2 with “marginally” liquefiable soils (factor
of safety against liquefaction between 1.0 and 1.2). If this soil layer were to liquify in our opinion it is unlikely
that any settlement as the result of liquefaction would occur. If surface settlements were to occur, we
expect they would be on the order of 1 inch or less.
In our opinion, the liquefaction risk at the site is not significant enough to warrant mitigation. Further, based
on our discussions with Otek, we expect that shallow foundations can be designed to accommodate small
amounts of liquefaction-induced settlements so supporting the bridge on deep foundations bearing below
the potentially liquefiable layer is, in our opinion, not necessary.

File No. 0410-205-00
3.2.3. Lateral Spreading Potential
Lateral spreading related to seismic activity typically involves lateral displacement of large, surficial blocks
of non-liquefied soil when a layer of underlying soil loses strength during seismic shaking. Lateral spreading
usually develops in areas where sloping ground or large grade changes (including retaining walls) are
present. Based on our understanding of the liquefaction risk at the site and the proposed improvements it
is our opinion that the risk of lateral spreading is low.
3.2.4. Surface Rupture Potential
According to the Washington State Department of Natural Resources Interactive Natural Hazards Map
(accessed August 15, 2019), there are no known faults mapped within about 7 miles of the site. Based on
the proximity of the site to the nearest known fault, it is our opinion the risk for surface rupture at this site
is low.
3.3. Foundation Support
3.3.1. General
We understand that the anticipated foundation type for the proposed bridge is shallow foundations. We
expect that shallow foundations can provide adequate support provided the foundations bear on medium
dense to dense glacial drift soils. While not addressed in this report, driven pile foundations are also likely
feasible for use at this site. We can provide recommendations for design and construction of driven pile
foundations if requested.
We recommend that shallow foundations be established at least 2 feet below the lowest adjacent grade.
This minimum embedment depth does not consider the effects of scour or the impacts of establishing
foundations on a slope. We recommend footings have a minimum width of 2 feet. The sections below
provide our recommendations for foundation bearing surface preparation and foundation design
parameters.
3.3.2. Foundation Bearing Surface Preparation
Foundations should bear on existing proof compacted glacial drift soils or on structural fill extending to
these soils. The existing fill should be removed from below foundation elements. The bearing surface should
be compacted as necessary to a firm, unyielding condition. Loose or disturbed materials present at the
base of footing excavations should be removed or compacted.
If structural fill is placed below footings as either replacement of overexcavated soils or to establish a
bearing pad, we recommend the structural fill extend laterally beyond the foundation perimeter a distance
equal to the depth of fill (measured from the base of the footing), or 3 feet, whichever is less.
Foundation bearing surfaces should not be exposed to standing water. If water is present in the excavation,
it must be removed before placing formwork and reinforcing steel. Protection of exposed soil, such as
placing a 6-inch thick layer of crushed rock or a 3- to 4-inch layer of lean-mix concrete, could be used to
limit disturbance to bearing surfaces.
Prepared foundation bearing surfaces should be evaluated by a member of our firm prior to placement of
formwork or reinforcing steel to verify that bearing surface has been prepared in accordance with our
recommendations or to provide recommendations for remediating unsuitable bearing soils.

3.3.3. Foundation Bearing Resistance
Shallow foundation bearing resistance was computed following methodology in the 2014 AASHTO LRFD
Bridge Design Specifications, Section 10.6.3.1.2. Figure 3 provides design bearing resistance for the
Service, Strength, and Extreme Limit States. The provided bearing resistances do not consider the effects
of sloping ground in front of the footings. If the edge of the footing will be located within a horizontal distance
of about 2 times the footing width from the slope as measured from the base of the footing, we should be
notified to provide revised design bearing resistances. The recommended bearing pressures assumes that
footings are established above the groundwater level. In our opinion foundation drains are not necessary
to maintain bearing support.
The Service Limit State assumes an allowable static settlement of 1 inch. The resistance factors for the
Extreme and Strength Limit States are 0.9 and 0.45, respectively. These resistance factors are based on
recommendations in the 2014 AASHTO LRFD and the 2015 Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT) Geotechnical Design Manual (GDM).
3.3.4. Lateral Resistance
The ability of the soil to resist lateral loads is a function of the base friction, which develops on the base of
footings and slabs, and the passive resistance, which develops on the face of below-grade elements of the
structure as these elements move into the soil. For footings founded in accordance with the
recommendations presented above, the frictional resistance on the base of the footing may be computed
using a coefficient of friction of 0.6 applied to the vertical dead-load forces. The passive resistance on the
face of the footing may be computed using the passive resistance values summarized in the “3.4
Conventional Retaining Walls and Subsurface Structures” section of this report. The resistance factors
summarized in Table 2 below should be applied to the frictional and passive resistance values for design.

Service 1.0 1.0
Extreme 0.9 0.9
3.4. Conventional Retaining Walls and Subsurface Structures
3.4.1. Subsurface Drainage
Subsurface structures and retaining walls will need to include drainage measures (drainpipes or weep
holes) to prevent buildup of excessive hydrostatic pressures or be designed for full hydrostatic pressures
and submerged structural fill values. Even with drainage measures included, we recommend the
subsurface structures be designed to withstand at least 1 foot of hydrostatic differential (i.e., a groundwater
level behind the structure 1 foot higher than the water level in the creek). This will allow for some time lag
in the drainage if the creek level drops suddenly or if the drainage becomes temporarily clogged. A larger
design differential might be required based on the location of the drainpipes or weep holes.
November 13, 2019 | Page 6
File No. 0410-205-00
We recommend a zone of free-draining material behind the retaining structure with perforated pipes to
collect seepage water. Most of the site soils encountered in our explorations contain a significant
percentage of fines (material passing the U.S. No. 200 sieve). Fine soils are susceptible to particle
migration, potentially clogging the drainage. We recommend one of the two following options for drainage
behind retaining walls:
■ Drainage material consisting of “gravel backfill for walls” described in Section 9-03.12(2) of the WSDOT
Standard Specifications. The drainage zone should extend horizontally at least 24 inches from the back
of the retaining structure.
■ Drainage material consisting of material similar to “gravel backfill for drains” described in Section
9-03.12(4) of the WSDOT Standard Specifications. The drainage zone should extend horizontally at
least 12 inches from the back of the retaining structure. A filter fabric designed for separation should
be placed between the gravel backfill and native site soils to prevent soil migration.
3.4.2. Design Parameters
Footings for retaining walls and other subsurface structures should be designed in accordance with the
“3.5 Shallow Foundations” recommendations provided in this report.
We recommend retaining walls, abutments and wing walls, and other subsurface structures be backfilled
with imported structural fill as described in our “3.8 Fill Materials” section below. Fill should be placed and
compacted as described in the “3.9 Fill Placement and Compaction” section of this report. The following
table provides lateral soil pressure parameters suitable for design of subsurface structures.

table.
November 13, 2019 | Page 7
File No. 0410-205-00
If subsurface structures will be designed for seismic forces, we recommend the seismic loading be
approximated using a uniform lateral pressure equal to 10*H psf, where H is the height (in feet) of the
structure. This seismic lateral pressure is in addition to the static soil load and any anticipated hydrostatic
pressures. This assumes that the structure is free to yield somewhat during a seismic event.
The horizontal pressure from uniform vertical surcharge loads (e.g., typical 250 psf traffic loads) can be
estimated by multiplying the vertical pressure by the active (Ka) or at rest (Ko) earth pressure coefficients
provided in Table 3 for the appropriate wall restraint condition. The resulting horizontal pressure should be
applied as a uniform rectangular load acting over the exposed height of the wall. Other surcharge loads or
configurations should be considered on a case-by-case basis.
3.5. Site Development and Earthwork
3.5.1. General
We anticipate site development and earthwork activities will include demolishing existing pavements,
removing existing culverts, site grading, subgrade preparation and placing and compacting fill and backfill
materials. We expect site grading and earthwork can be accomplished with conventional earthmoving
equipment.
3.5.2. Clearing, Stripping, and Demolition
Areas of the site to be developed or graded must be cleared of surface and subsurface deleterious matter,
including any debris and organics. If voids are created during clearing and stripping, they should be
backfilled with compacted structural fill following the recommendations described in this report. During
demolition of existing pavement, excessive disturbance of surficial soils could occur, especially if left
exposed to wet weather conditions and construction or vehicle traffic. Disturbed soils may require
additional remediation during construction and grading. Based on our explorations, we anticipate native
site soils could have a high fines content (material passing the U.S. No. 200 sieve). If exposed, these soils
will be susceptible to disturbance when wet. Care should be taken to avoid allowing these soils to become
saturated and disturbed. We provide recommendations for subgrade protection in the “3.7.6 Subgrade
Protection and Wet Weather Considerations” section below.
We encountered coarse gravels and cobbles in our explorations. We did not observe boulders during our
explorations; however, they could be present in the glacial drift deposits. The contractor should be prepared
to manage these materials if encountered during grading or excavation. Voids caused by removal of large
cobbles or boulders should be backfilled with structural fill.
3.5.3. Temporary Excavations, Shoring and Dewatering
3.5.3.1. General
The proposed culvert replacement will require excavation within existing roadway areas to remove existing
culverts and construct the foundation for the new culvert. We anticipate shoring, groundwater management
(dewatering), and major surface water management (creek by-pass) will be required to construct the
proposed culvert foundations. Portions of construction such as fill placement will also affect the site soil
and how they respond to shoring and dewatering. Depending on the elevations of the culvert footings and
the level of Rock Creek at the time of construction, cofferdams may also be required to prevent water from
flowing into the culvert excavations.
November 13, 2019 | Page 8
File No. 0410-205-00
Excavation, shoring, dewatering, and creek by-pass are all interrelated; the design and implementation of
these elements must be coordinated and must consider the over-all construction staging to ensure a
consistent and compatible approach. For example, more extensive shoring systems that can cut off some
groundwater flow into the excavation will reduce the amount of dewatering that is required. Similarly,
dewatering systems that lower surrounding groundwater levels can be used to reduce pressures on the
shoring system.
Based on our experience it is likely unsupported excavations at the site will cave or slough, especially within
glacial drift soils below the groundwater table. Excavations will need to be sloped or shored to prevent the
sides from caving. Shoring will also be required to protect worker safety and to protect adjacent
improvements including utilities and pavements.
Excavations deeper than 4 feet must be shored or laid back at a stable slope if workers are required to
enter. Shoring and temporary slope inclinations must conform to the provisions of Title 296 Washington
Administrative Code (WAC), Part N, “Excavation, Trenching and Shoring”. Regardless of the soil type
encountered in the excavation shoring, trench boxes or sloped sidewalls will be required under Washington
Industrial Safety and Health Act (WISHA). We recommend the contract documents specify that the
contractor is responsible for selecting excavation and dewatering methods, monitoring the excavations for
safety and providing shoring, as required, to protect personnel and structures.
We recommend for planning purposes all temporary cut slopes be inclined no steeper than about 1.5H to
1V (horizontal to vertical) if workers are required to enter. This guideline assumes all surface loads are kept
at a minimum distance of at least one-half the depth of the cut away from the top of the slope and seepage
is not present on the slope face. Flatter cut slopes could be necessary where seepage occurs or if surface
surcharge loads are anticipated. Temporary covering with heavy plastic sheeting should be used to protect
these slopes during periods of wet weather.
We recommend that the contractor performing the work be made responsible for designing and installing
construction shoring and for controlling and collecting groundwater encountered. The contract documents
should also specify that the contractor is responsible for selecting excavation and dewatering methods,
monitoring the excavations for safety, and providing shoring, as required, to protect personnel and
structures. We recommend that all shoring be designed to accommodate at least 2 feet of overexcavation
of the subgrade. Excavation shoring, cofferdams, and dewatering systems must be designed by a qualified
engineer in accordance with WSDOT Standard Specifications Section 2-09.3(3) D “Shoring and
Cofferdams.” We recommend that we be retained to review the proposed shoring and dewatering plan
before construction.
3.5.3.2. Excavation Shoring
The soil pressures against a shoring wall are dependent on the type of wall, the soil retained, the method
of construction, and the extent of dewatering. For preliminary budgeting and planning purposes, we suggest
that loads against a shoring system be estimated using the soil properties in Table 4 below. These values
are based on our explorations and our experience. These values are for preliminary planning purposes. Soil
and water pressures used in final design must be determined by a qualified engineer and be based on the
specific shoring system that will be constructed. The shoring designer must also confirm that the soil
conditions observed during construction are consistent with the soil conditions assumed during design.

The shoring method must also consider installation requirements. The presence of large particles such as
cobbles and/or boulders could make installation of some shoring methods, such as sheet piles, difficult or
impractical.
3.5.3.3. Subgrade Stability
If the excavation is completed without lowering the water table outside the excavation, the difference in
pressure between the inside and the outside of the excavation could result in “quick” or boiling sand
conditions in the subgrade. This condition should be considered in the design. Methods to counteract this
include: (1) excavating “in the wet” and placing a filter graded drainage blanket at the subgrade elevation
or (2) installing deeper dewatering wells around the excavation perimeter or additional wells in the interior
of the excavation to reduce excess water pressure.
Heave of the excavation subgrade must also be considered in the shoring design. This condition is more
prone to occur with braced shoring in sand deposits but could also occur under other conditions as well.
Heave may be more pronounced if a less permeable stratum is underlain by a more permeable stratum
(e.g., silty gravel over sand) near the anticipated bottom of excavation. Sand deposits appear to be deeper
than expected excavation limits (on the order of 20 feet bgs); however, potential heaving conditions could
occur if a sand layer is encountered near the bottom of the excavation.
3.5.3.4. Dewatering
As previously discussed, glacial drift soils within about 20 feet of the ground surface consist predominantly
of gravel with variable sand and silt content. While these soils are relatively compact, the coarse-grained
nature of the soils indicates that they may transmit a significant amount of water. Different approaches to
dewatering will be appropriate in different materials and the contractor may need to change approaches
as construction progresses. In addition, dewatering may need to be adjusted to account for fluctuations in
the water table during construction. We anticipate that dewatering in excavation that extend to, or just
below the groundwater level may be achieved with sumps and pumps in the interior of the excavation.
Excavations extending more than a few feet below the groundwater level will likely require dewatering with
well points or dewatering wells to control seepage or heaving and boiling of the subgrade.
Dewatering with deep, widely spaced wells could leave perched groundwater above lenses of relatively less
permeable soils and may not fully dewater the excavation. This is less likely to occur with a series of closely
spaced well points. However, subgrade heave is more likely with well points than deeper wells.

File No. 0410-205-00
3.5.4. Permanent Cut and Fill Slopes
We recommend permanent slopes be constructed at a maximum inclination of 2H to 1V. Where 2H to 1V
permanent slopes are not feasible, protective facings and/or retaining structures should be considered.
This guideline assumes all surface loads are kept at a minimum distance of at least one-half the height of
the slope away from the top of the slope and seepage is not present on the slope face. Flatter cut slopes
or additional drainage measures could be necessary where seepage occurs or if surface surcharge loads
are anticipated.
To achieve uniform compaction, we recommend fill slopes be overbuilt and subsequently cut back to
expose well-compacted fill. Fill placement on existing slopes steeper than 5H to 1V should be benched into
the slope face. The configuration of benches depends on the equipment being used and the inclination of
the existing slope. Bench excavations should be level and extend into the existing slope face at least half
the width of the compaction equipment used.
Exposed areas should be re-vegetated as soon as practical to reduce the surface erosion and sloughing.
Temporary protection should be used until permanent protection is established.
3.5.5. Subgrade Preparation
Subgrades should be thoroughly compacted to a uniformly firm and unyielding condition on completion of
stripping. We recommend subgrades be evaluated, as appropriate, to identify areas of yielding or soft soil.
Probing with a steel probe rod or proof-rolling with a heavy piece of wheeled construction equipment are
appropriate methods of evaluation.
If soft or otherwise unsuitable subgrade areas are revealed during evaluation that cannot be compacted to
a stable and uniformly firm condition, we recommend: (1) the unsuitable soils be scarified (e.g., with a
ripper or farmer’s disc), aerated and recompacted, if practical; or (2) the unsuitable soils be removed and
replaced with compacted structural fill, as needed.
3.5.6. Subgrade Protection and Wet Weather Considerations
The soils observed in our borings contain a significant amount of fines. These soils will be susceptible to
disturbance during periods of wet weather, sensitive to small changes in moisture and susceptible to
disturbance from construction traffic when wet or if earthwork is performed during wet weather. When the
moisture content of the soil is more than a few percent above the optimum moisture content, the soil can
become muddy and unstable and it will be challenging to meet the required compaction criteria. The wet
weather season generally begins in October and continues through May in western Washington; however,
periods of wet weather can occur during any month of the year. In our opinion, earthwork at the site should
take place during the summer months or during periods of extended dry weather. If wet weather earthwork
is unavoidable, we offer the following recommendations:
■ The ground surface in and around the work area should be sloped so that surface water is directed
away from the work area. The ground surface should be graded so areas of ponded water do not
develop. Measures should be taken by the contractor to prevent surface water from collecting in
excavations and trenches. Measures should be implemented to remove surface water from work areas.
■ Earthwork activities should not take place during periods of heavy precipitation.
■ Slopes with exposed soils should be covered with plastic sheeting.
November 13, 2019 | Page 11
File No. 0410-205-00
■ The contractor should take necessary measures to prevent on-site soils and other soils to be used as
fill from becoming wet or unstable. These measures may include the use of plastic sheeting, sumps
with pumps and grading. The site soils should not be left uncompacted and exposed to moisture.
Sealing exposed soils by rolling with a smooth-drum roller prior to periods of precipitation will help
reduce the extent to which these soils absorb water and become wet or unstable.
■ Construction traffic should be restricted to specific areas of the site, preferably areas that are surfaced
with working pad materials not susceptible to wet weather disturbance.
■ Construction activities should be scheduled so that the length of time that soils are left exposed to
moisture is reduced to the extent practical.
■ Protective surfacing such as placing asphalt-treated base (ATB), cement treated base (CTB), cement
treated subgrades, or haul roads made of quarry spalls or a layer of free-draining material such as well-
graded pit-run sand and gravel may be necessary to protect completed areas from construction traffic.
Typically, minimum gravel thicknesses on the order of 18 inches are necessary to provide adequate
subgrade protection for repeated construction traffic.
3.6. Fill Materials
3.6.1. Structural Fill
Material used for structural fill should be free of debris, organic contaminants and rock fragments larger
than 6 inches in maximum dimension. We recommend structural fill consist of material similar to “Select
Borrow” or “Gravel Borrow” as described in Section 9-03.14 of the WSDOT Standard Specifications, or
“Aggregate for Gravel Base” as described in Section 9-03.10. We recommend crushed rock or select
granular fill (described below) be used for structural fill during the wet season.
3.6.2. Select Granular Fill
If imported fill is needed during wet weather conditions, we recommend select granular fill is used. Select
granular fill should consist of well-graded sand and gravel or crushed rock with a maximum particle size of
6 inches and less than 5 percent fines by weight based on the minus ¾-inch fraction. Organic matter, debris
or other deleterious material should not be present. Material with gradation characteristics similar to
“Aggregates for Ballast and Crushed Surfacing” (Section 9-03.9 of the WSDOT Standard Specifications),
“Gravel Borrow” (Section 9-03.14(1)) or “Select Borrow” (Section 9-03.14(2)) is also suitable for use as
select granular fill, provided the fines content is less than 5 percent (based on the minus ¾-inch fraction)
and the maximum particle size is 6 inches.
3.6.3. Recycled Materials
In our opinion, recycled material (such as asphalt and concrete) may be used as fill material provided the
material is in accordance with WSDOT Standard Specifications Section 9-03.21 “Recycled Material” and
meets requirements for its end use.
Recycled materials may be blended provided the recycled material component included in a blended
product meets the specification requirements for the specified material. We recommend the amount of
recycled material generally not exceed percentages presented in WSDOT Standard Specifications Table
9-03.21(1)E. As an example, Table 9-03.21(1)E allows a maximum 20 percent by weight of hot mix asphalt
November 13, 2019 | Page 12
File No. 0410-205-00
for recycled material to be used as “Gravel Borrow”. Accordingly, about a 3-inch-thick section of hot mix
asphalt would need to be blended with about 12 inches of aggregate to achieve this percentage.
Blending may be achieved as recycled material (e.g., asphalt) is ground in-place and mixed with underlaying
aggregate, windrowing with a bulldozer, or other methods. The final blended product (including the recycled
material component) shall meet the specification requirements for “Gravel Borrow” (WSDOT Standard
Specifications Section 9-03.14(1)). Higher percentages might be allowed on a case-by-case basis as
approved by the engineer. Higher percentages will be evaluated and accepted or rejected in the field during
construction based on quality and proposed location of material.
Recycled materials must not be used as fill below the groundwater table or in drainage applications.
3.6.4. On-Site Soils
Based on our subsurface explorations and experience, it is our opinion that existing site soils including the
existing fill may be considered for use as structural fill, provided that it can be adequately moisture
conditioned, placed and compacted as recommended and does not contain organic or other deleterious
material. The gravel drift contains a significant amount of cobbles and may contain boulders. These
oversized particles (greater than about 6 inches in dimension) can inhibit compaction and fine grading and
might need to be removed before the soil is used as structural fill. The majority of the soils observed in our
explorations contained a significant amount of fines and will be moisture sensitive and very difficult or
impossible to properly compact when wet. In addition, it is possible that existing soils will be generated at
moisture contents above optimum especially in excavations near the elevation of the creek. If earthwork
occurs during a typical wet season, or if the soils are persistently wet and cannot be dried due to prevailing
wet weather conditions, we recommend the use of imported structural fill or select granular fill, as described
above.
3.7. Fill Placement and Compaction
To obtain proper compaction, fill material should be compacted near optimum moisture content and in
uniform horizontal lifts. Lift thickness and compaction procedures will depend on the moisture content and
gradation characteristics of the soil and the type of equipment used. Generally, 12-inch-thick loose lifts are
appropriate for steel-drum vibratory roller compaction equipment. The maximum allowable moisture
content varies with the soil gradation and should be evaluated during construction. Compaction should be
achieved by mechanical means. During fill and backfill placement, sufficient testing of in-place density
should be conducted to verify adequate compaction is being achieved.
Fill placed under structural areas (such as culverts or wingwalls), under pavements, or to raise site grades
should be placed on subgrades prepared as previously recommended. Fill material placed below structural
areas or under pavement sections must be compacted to at least 95 percent of the theoretical maximum
dry density (MDD) per ASTM International (ASTM) D 1557. In landscaping or other non-structural areas, fill
should be compacted to a firm condition that will support construction equipment, as necessary, typically
around 85 to 90 percent of the MDD.
3.7.1. Fill Placement Below the Water Table
Where fill placement is required on wet subgrades below the water table, we recommend fill consist of
angular rock with few fines. In our opinion, material conforming to WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.9(2)
November 13, 2019 | Page 13
File No. 0410-205-00
“Permeable Ballast” is suitable for this purpose. The rock must be placed in lifts and tamped with an
excavator bucket. A geotextile may be required between the rock and any overlaying fill to prevent material
from being lost into the voids in the rock.

APPENDIX A
SUBSURFACE EXPLORATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTING
Subsurface Explorations
Soil and groundwater conditions at the site were explored by advancing two borings on July 23, 2019.
Locations of the borings were determined via an electronic tablet with global positioning system (GPS)
software and are shown on the Site Plan, Figure 2. The locations and elevations of the explorations should
be considered approximate. Exploration locations were constrained to some degree by site infrastructure.
The borings were completed using truck-mounted drilling equipment provided and operated by Holocene
Drilling, Inc. under subcontract to GeoEngineers. Borings were advanced using hollow-stem auger drilling
methods and advanced to depths between approximately 35.5 and 45 feet below existing site grade (bgs).
Borings were backfilled by the driller in accordance with Washington State Department of Ecology
requirements. Soil cuttings generated from the borings were placed in metal barrels and hauled off site for
disposal.
During the exploration program our field representative continuously monitored the borings, obtained
representative soil samples, classified the soils, maintained a detailed log of each exploration and observed
groundwater conditions. Soil samples were obtained from the borings using a 1.4-inch inner diameter split-
barrel sampler driven into the soil using a 140-pound hammer free-falling a distance of 30 inches. The
number of blows required to drive the sampler the last 12 inches or other indicated distance is recorded
on the logs as the blow count. Our field representative made sample attempts at 2.5- to 5-foot depth
intervals. Samples were retained in sealed plastic bags to prevent moisture loss. The soils were classified
visually in general accordance with ASTM International (ASTM) D 2488 and Figure A-1, which includes a
Key to the Exploration Logs. Summary logs of the explorations are included as Figures A-2 and A-3.
Laboratory Testing
Soil samples obtained from the explorations were transported to the GeoEngineers laboratory.
Representative soil samples were selected for laboratory tests to evaluate the pertinent geotechnical
engineering characteristics of the soils and to confirm our field classification. The following paragraphs
provide a description of tests performed.
Sieve Analysis (SA)
Sieve analyses were performed on selected samples in general accordance with ASTM Test Method D
6913. This test method covers the quantitative determination of the distribution of particle sizes in soils.
Typically, the distribution of particle sizes larger than 75 micrometers (m) is determined by sieving. The
results of the tests were used to verify field soil classifications. Figures A-4 and A-5 present the results of
our sieve analyses.
Percent Fines (%F)
Selected samples were “washed” through the U.S. No. 200 sieve to estimate the relative percentages of
coarse- and fine-grained particles in the soil. The percent passing value represents the percentage by
weight of the sample finer than the U.S. No. 200 sieve (fines). Tests were conducted in general accordance
with ASTM D 1140. Test results are used to aid in soil classification and correlation with other pertinent
engineering soil properties and are presented on the exploration logs at the respective sample depths.

File No. 0410-205-00
APPENDIX B
REPORT LIMITATIONS AND GUIDELINES FOR USE1
This appendix provides information to help you manage your risks with respect to the use of this report.
Read These Provisions Closely
It is important to recognize that the geoscience practices (geotechnical engineering, geology and
environmental science) rely on professional judgment and opinion to a greater extent than other
engineering and natural science disciplines, where more precise and/or readily observable data may exist.
To help clients better understand how this difference pertains to our services, GeoEngineers includes the
following explanatory “limitations” provisions in its reports. Please confer with GeoEngineers if you need to
know more how these “Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use” apply to your project or site.
Geotechnical Services are Performed for Specific Purposes, Persons and Projects
This report has been prepared for City of Kent and for the Project(s) specifically identified in the report. The
information contained herein is not applicable to other sites or projects.
GeoEngineers structures its services to meet the specific needs of its clients. No party other than the party
to whom this report is addressed may rely on the product of our services unless we agree to such reliance
in advance and in writing. Within the limitations of the agreed scope of services for the Project, and its
schedule and budget, our services have been executed in accordance with our Agreement with City of Kent
dated April 22, 2019 and generally accepted geotechnical practices in this area at the time this report was
prepared. We do not authorize, and will not be responsible for, the use of this report for any purposes or
projects other than those identified in the report.
A Geotechnical Engineering or Geologic Report is based on a Unique Set of Project-Specific
Factors
This report has been prepared for the Summit Landsburg Road Culvert Replacement project located in
Kent, Washington. GeoEngineers considered a number of unique, project-specific factors when establishing
the scope of services for this project and report. Unless GeoEngineers specifically indicates otherwise, it is
important not to rely on this report if it was:
■ not prepared for you,
■ not prepared for your project,
■ not prepared for the specific site explored, or
■ completed before important project changes were made.
For example, changes that can affect the applicability of this report include those that affect:
■ the function of the proposed structure;
■ elevation, configuration, location, orientation or weight of the proposed structure;
1 Developed based on material provided by ASFE, Professional Firms Practicing in the Geosciences; www.asfe.org.
November 13, 2019 | Page B-2
File No. 0410-205-00
■ composition of the design team; or
■ project ownership.
If changes occur after the date of this report, GeoEngineers cannot be responsible for any consequences
of such changes in relation to this report unless we have been given the opportunity to review our
interpretations and recommendations. Based on that review, we can provide written modifications or
confirmation, as appropriate.
Environmental Concerns are Not Covered
Unless environmental services were specifically included in our scope of services, this report does not
provide any environmental findings, conclusions, or recommendations, including but not limited to, the
likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants.
Information Provided by Others
GeoEngineers has relied upon certain data or information provided or compiled by others in the
performance of our services. Although we use sources that we reasonably believe to be trustworthy,
GeoEngineers cannot warrant or guarantee the accuracy or completeness of information provided or
compiled by others.
Subsurface Conditions Can Change
This geotechnical or geologic report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was performed.
The findings and conclusions of this report may be affected by the passage of time, by man-made events
such as construction on or adjacent to the site, new information or technology that becomes available
subsequent to the report date, or by natural events such as floods, earthquakes, slope instability or
groundwater fluctuations. If more than a few months have passed since issuance of our report or work
product, or if any of the described events may have occurred, please contact GeoEngineers before applying
this report for its intended purpose so that we may evaluate whether changed conditions affect the
continued reliability or applicability of our conclusions and recommendations.
Geotechnical and Geologic Findings are Professional Opinions
Our interpretations of subsurface conditions are based on field observations from widely spaced sampling
locations at the site. Site exploration identifies the specific subsurface conditions only at those points where
subsurface tests are conducted or samples are taken. GeoEngineers reviewed field and laboratory data
and then applied its professional judgment to render an informed opinion about subsurface conditions at
other locations. Actual subsurface conditions may differ, sometimes significantly, from the opinions
presented in this report. Our report, conclusions and interpretations are not a warranty of the actual
subsurface conditions.
Geotechnical Engineering Report Recommendations are Not Final
We have developed the following recommendations based on data gathered from subsurface
investigation(s). These investigations sample just a small percentage of a site to create a snapshot of the
subsurface conditions elsewhere on the site. Such sampling on its own cannot provide a complete and
accurate view of subsurface conditions for the entire site. Therefore, the recommendations included in this
report are preliminary and should not be considered final. GeoEngineers’ recommendations can be
November 13, 2019 | Page B-3
File No. 0410-205-00
finalized only by observing actual subsurface conditions revealed during construction. GeoEngineers
cannot assume responsibility or liability for the recommendations in this report if we do not perform
construction observation.
We recommend that you allow sufficient monitoring, testing and consultation during construction by
GeoEngineers to confirm that the conditions encountered are consistent with those indicated by the
explorations, to provide recommendations for design changes if the conditions revealed during the work
differ from those anticipated, and to evaluate whether earthwork activities are completed in accordance
with our recommendations. Retaining GeoEngineers for construction observation for this project is the most
effective means of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions. If another party performs
field observation and confirms our expectations, the other party must take full responsibility for both the
observations and recommendations. Please note, however, that another party would lack our project-
specific knowledge and resources.
A Geotechnical Engineering or Geologic Report Could Be Subject to Misinterpretation
Misinterpretation of this report by members of the design team or by contractors can result in costly
problems. GeoEngineers can help reduce the risks of misinterpretation by conferring with appropriate
members of the design team after submitting the report, reviewing pertinent elements of the design team’s
plans and specifications, participating in pre-bid and preconstruction conferences, and providing
construction observation.
Do Not Redraw the Exploration Logs
Geotechnical engineers and geologists prepare final boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation
of field logs and laboratory data. The logs included in a geotechnical engineering or geologic report should
never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design drawings. Photographic or electronic
reproduction is acceptable, but separating logs from the report can create a risk of misinterpretation.
Give Contractors a Complete Report and Guidance
To help reduce the risk of problems associated with unanticipated subsurface conditions, GeoEngineers
recommends giving contractors the complete geotechnical engineering or geologic report, including these
“Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use.” When providing the report, you should preface it with a clearly
written letter of transmittal that:
■ advises contractors that the report was not prepared for purposes of bid development and that its
accuracy is limited; and
■ encourages contractors to confer with GeoEngineers and/or to conduct additional study to obtain the
specific types of information they need or prefer.
Contractors are Responsible for Site Safety on Their Own Construction Projects
