Cracks between 0.25 and 1-inches will be routed and filled with a P-605 with an ASTM 6690, Type 1 material compatible with the existing and new binder. To minimize the random/uncontrolled transverse cracks of the existing asphalt surface course, stress relief cuts at regular intervals shall be installed as Additive Alternate Number 1.

TAA, in compliance with 49 CFR 26, has adopted a program regarding the participation of DBEs on federally funded projects. Specifically, it is the goal of TAA to ensure that, to the extent reasonably possible and consistent with other legal requirements that: (a) DBEs are not discriminated against in the award and administration of TAA's contracts; (b) a level playing field is created on which DBEs can compete fairly for TAAs contracts; and (c) any barriers to the participation of DBEs in TAAs contracts are removed. A copy of this program is available upon request. TAA has set an aspirational 7% (7% of the dollar value of the contract) DBE participation goal for this contract. As a matter of responsiveness, firms must complete and submit the Statement of Proposed DBE Utilization form in the form provided, with its submittal. Firms and firms' subcontractor/subconsultant who are submitting as DBEs must be certified DBEs in Arizona in good standing prior to the date submittals are due.
