3−2 actually in place in accordance with the Plans and/or as directed by the Engineer.

301.05 BASIS OF PAYMENT. The accepted quantities of "Aggregate Base Course" and/or

"Gravel Borrow Base Course," will be paid for at the respective contract unit prices per ton or cubic yard, as the case may be, as listed in the Proposal. The prices so-stated shall constitute full and complete compensation for all l abor, materials, and equipment, and all incidentals required to finish the work, complete and accepted by the Engineer. SECTION 302 GRAVEL BORROW SUBBASE COURSES

302.01 DESCRIPTION . This work consists of providing one or more courses of gravel borrow on

prepared subgrade surfaces in reasonably close conformity with the dimensions and details indicated on the Plans, all in accordance with these Specifications.

302.02 MATERIALS. Gravel Borrow shall meet the requirements of Subsection M.01.09;

Gradation of Aggregates, Table I, Column I prior to its final placement on the Project. The practice of culling deleterious or out of specification material after placement and/or grading in-place will not be allowed.

302.03 CONSTRUCTION METHODS. 302.03.1 Placing. Placing subbase materials shall conform to the requirements of Subsection

301.03.1 of these Specifications.

302.03.2 Shaping and Compaction. Shaping and compaction of s ubbase materials shall conform

to the requirements of Subsection 301.03.2 of these Specifications.

302.04 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT. "Gravel Borrow Subbase C ourse" will be measured by the

number of cubic yards actually placed in accordance with the Plans and/or as directed by the Engineer. 302.05 BASIS OF PAYMENT. The accepted quantity of "Gravel Borrow Subbase Course" will be paid for at the contract unit price per cubic yard as listed in the Proposal. The price so-stated constitutes full and complete compensation for all labor, materials, and equipment, and all incidentals, including trimming and fine grading required to finish the work, complete and accepted by the Engineer. 3−3SECTION 303 SPECIAL GRADED AGGREGATE FOR SHAPING AND TRIMMING DRIVEWAYS OR SHOULDERS

303.01 DESCRIPTION. This work consists of providing special graded aggregate as surface

courses for driveways or shoulders to be placed in reasonably close conformity with the lines, grades, and typical cross sections indicated on the Plans, all in accordance with these Specifications. 303.02 MATERIALS. Special graded aggregate shall be a composite mix of crusher run coarse aggregate and fine aggregate, free from clay, loam, so ft or elongated rock fragment s, organic soil or vegetative matter. Coarse aggregate (plus No. 4) shall consist of clean, hard, durable particles of crushed rock fragments or crushed gravel. Crushed gravel shall cons ist of 95 percent by weight particles with at least one fractured face. Coarse aggregates shall have a percentage of wear by the Los Angeles Abrasion Test (AASHTO T96) of not more than 50 percent, and a Sodium Sulfate Soundness (AASHT0 T104) of not more than 12 percent. Fine aggregate shall consist of particles produced during the crushing of coarse aggregate at the approved source and shall be free of organic deleterious matter. The composite coarse and fine aggregate mix shall conform to the following gradation requirements, as well as all other applicable specifications prior to its final placement on the Project: Square Mesh Percentage by Weight Passing Sieve Size: Indicated Square Mesh Sieve: 1½" 100 1" 85 - 100 ½" 50 - 85 No. 4 40 - 75 No. 40 8 - 35 No. 200 2 - 10 Coarse and fine aggregates to be used as Special Graded Aggregate for driveway or shoulder surfaces shall be selected to provide a stable, compactable, functional and presentable surface which shall be similar in color and texture, as approved by the Engineer, to match existing surfaces. 303.03 CONSTRUCTION METHODS. 303.03.1 Placing. When used as a crushed aggregate surface course to provide a transition between existing gravel/aggregate surfaces and new asphalt, special graded aggregate shall be placed in layers such that the maximum compacted thickness of any one layer shall not exceed 6 inches. 303.03.2 Shaping and Compaction. Special graded aggregate shall be shaped and compacted 3−4 in accordance with the requirement of Subsection 301.03.2; Shaping and Compaction , of these Specifications. 303.04 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT. "Special Graded Aggregate" will be measured by the number of cubic yards or the number of tons, as the case may be, actually placed in accordance with the Plans and/or as directed by the Engineer.

303.05 BASIS OF PAYMENT. The accepted quantity of "Special Graded Aggregate" will be paid

for at the contract unit price per ton or per cubic yard, as the case may be, as listed in the Proposal. The price so-stated shall constitute full and complete compensation for all labor, materials, and equipment, including trimming and fine grading, and all incidentals required to finish the work, complete and accepted by the Engineer. SECTION 304 SELECT LEVELING AND FILLER AGGREGATE

304.01 DESCRIPTION. This work consists of providing select leveling and filler aggregate to

Select leveling and filler aggregate shall be a composite of crushed or uncrushed coarse aggregate and natural or crushed fine aggregate, all provided from approved sources. The composite aggregate shall be free of compressible or organic soils, soft or elongated rock fragments or gravel, and vegetative matter. Coarse aggregate (plus No. 4) may consist of crushed rock fragments, crushed or uncrushed gravel, or a blend of crushed and uncrushed rock and gravel. Each coarse aggregate component source material shall have been shown i ndividually to have a percentage of wear by Los Angeles Abrasion Test (AASHTO T96) of not more than 50 percent, and a Sodium Sulfate Soundness (AASHTO T104) of not more than 12 percent. Fine aggregate may consist of natural sand or particles produced by crushing rock or gravel, and shall be free of organic soils or other deleterious matter. The composite coarse and fine aggregate mix shall conform to the following gradation requirements, as well as all other applicable specifications prior to its final placement on the Project:
