1 . General. For standard construction, the Department will accept the mixture according to the appropriate level in Table C. For RPS construction, the Department will accept the mixtures by lot acceptance as specified in Section 413.3(h)2.

TABLE C Mixture Acceptance Acceptance Level Acceptance Method Certification Acceptance Producer Certification of Mixture (Section 4 13.2(i)2) Lot Acceptance Mixture Acceptance Sample Testing (Section 413.3(h)2)

2.Certification Acceptance. Acceptance by certification is appropriate for the following mixtures,

conditions, or applications:

• Scratch courses, leveling courses less than 2- inch depth and driveway adjustments.

• Mixtures used by Department maintenance forces.

• Mixtures purchased by local or municipal governments.

• Mixtures placed in quantities not exceeding 500 tons in a continuous placement operation unless otherwise directed by the Representative (See Section 101.01) .

• Mixtures used for parking lots.

• All 4.75 mm NMAS as phalt mixtures.

• Other mixtures, conditions, or applications as approved by the Representative (See Section 101.01) . 2.a General. Obtain certification from the mixture producer. Use all QC tests during mixture production as acceptance tests. Certify mixtures using Form CS -4171B. Include, or attach, the QC test results on the form. Provide the form to the Inspector -in-Charge within 1 working day after completing the QC tests. Certify mixtures as specified in Section 106.03(b)3 and the requirements below.

2.b Certification of Mixture. Certify each mixture daily if QC test results conform to the single sample and multiple sample JMF production tolerances of Table A. The acceptance values will be:

• Asphalt Content .

• Percent Passing the 2.36 mm (No. 8) sieve (not applicable for 4.75 mm NMAS asphalt mixtures) .

• Percent Passing the 75  m (No. 200) sieve.

If using printed ticket results in place of laboratory test results for asphalt content, certify that at least 90% of each day’s printed ticket results for asphalt content are within 0.2 percentage points of the JMF. If the mixture does not conform to the above requirements, do not certify the mixture. Instead, provide all QC test results to the Inspector -in-Charge. If using printed ticket results for asphalt content, provide the percentage of daily printed ticket resu lts within 0.2 percentage points of the JMF to the Inspector -in-Charge. Payment will be determined according to Table H based on the QC test results. If a day’s production is interrupted by corrective action, material produced after the corrective action may be certified if QC test results conform to production tolerances.
