A Designated Haul Road is a public Road (other than a trunk Highway) that the Contractor may use for the purposes specified in 2051.1A, “Definitions.” A Designated Haul Road does not include a connection between a natural Material source and a public Road. The Contractor must secure the Rights-of-way for, construct, and maintain such connections between a Material source and a public Road, without compensation from the Department other than payment received for the Contract Items. The Department may, but is not required to, designate a haul Road in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 161.25. If the Department has made a written designation of a haul Road, then the Department will have jurisdiction over the public Roads and Streets included in such designation. The requirements of 2051, “Haul Road Maintenance and Restoration,” will govern the maintenance and restoration of the Designated Haul Roads. If the Department has not made a written designation of a haul Road, the Contractor will be responsible for the following:
authority as a condition of use of such Road as a haul Road
condition of using such Road as a haul Road All actions and costs with respect to a non-designated haul Road will be without compensation from the Department, other than payment received for the Contract Items. In preparing its Proposal, the Contractor is not entitled to assume that t he Department will designate a haul Road, or that the Designated Haul Road will be the most convenient and direct route or not subject to reduced weight limits. The Department will not consider its decision to designate or not designate a requested haul route as a basis for a Contract revision.
