measured and paid as follows:

• Disincentive. When asphalt pavement evaluation indicates that a disincentive adjustment is applicable, the appropriate amount will be deducted from money due or to become prior to the Contractor through the processing of a Contract Adjustment.
4.b Dispute Resolution . For mixture acceptance testing or density acceptance testing performed by the L TS, the Contractor may request , in writing , that the Department retest a lot if the initial test results indicated a defective lot (remove and replace) , a lot with an OLPF < 90.00, the asphalt content pay factor for the lot is < 80.00, or the density pay factor for the lot is < 80.00, except for density when one or more density acceptance cores in the lot were coated with paraffin wax as a result of PTM No. 716 during the origina l density acceptance testing . Provide written retest requests to the District Executive within 3 weeks of the date the LTS test results are released. Provide in the written request the preferred test method for asphalt content determination (PTM No. 757 or PTM No. 702, Modified Method D). Retests will not be allowed if a written retest request is not received within 3 weeks of the date the LTS test results are released. Provide quality control test results and control charts, companion sample test results ( if available), test data trend evaluation, and any other pertinent information to justify the retest request. The Department will evaluate the information and may allow retesting if the information submitted provides a reasonable basis to conclude that the failing test results may not represent the in- place material. The LTS will perform the retest with the Contractor present, unless otherwise agreed to in writing with the Contractor. For retesting of materials failing for asphalt content , percent passing 75 µm (No. 200) sieve, or percent passing the PCS, the Inspector will identify the locations where the original box samples were collected. The Inspector will select retest sample locations 24 inches from the original sample locations longitudinally in the direction of traffic. If the 24- inch offset causes the retest sample location to fall outside of the sublot, the Inspector will select the retest sample location 24 inches from the original sample locations longitudinally in the opposite direction from traffic. With the Inspector present, provide appropriate traffic control and drill 6- inch diameter cores for retesting purposes according to the procedure for drilling in PTM No. 729. Ensure drilling procedures include washing off and towel dry
