Funding Source:
Category:
Sub Category:
Estimated Cost: $4,353,000
Description: Existing subgrade is exposed. Limited gravel surfacing on shoulders and safety areas. Material Source Investigation required. Local material source(s) could be used if sufficient competent rock can be found for crushing activities.
Priority: Short
Need Origination: Inspection
Justification: Existing subgrade is exposed. Limited existing UNCRUSHED gravel surfacing on shoulders and safety areas. Crushed surfacing is needed to bind the surface and keep fines in place. Dust is a problem in this community. Seen on the 2020 CIMP Inspection.
Notes: Transporting gravel to a project site accounts for the greater portion of the cost of gravel supply. Transport costs will be incurred whether the pit is privately owned or operated by the State of Alaska. Environmental management costs include pre-disturbance site assessments and studies, application requirements, environmental regulatory requirements, liability for contamination and reclamation liability. Environmental costs are incurred whether a pit is on public or private land. 7/27/2021 Angela Smith
