UNDERSTANDING OF SERVICE: Bacco Construction Company and Payne and Dolan, Inc. Joint Venture (BPD) Bacco Construction Company and Payne and Dolan, Inc. have formed BPD to pursue the Construction Manager/General Contractor responsibilities of the Marquette County Road Commission, (MCRC), CR 595 Final Design and Construction or CR 550, CR 510 and Triple A Design, Construction & Rehabilitation projects. In addition, Zenith Tech, Inc., a sister company of Payne & Dolan, Inc., will be an integral part of our project team. This combination will create synergies and flexibility, resulting in the maximized benefit to MCRC and the Eagle Mine. Finally, we have added Coleman Engineering Company (CEC) to our team to continue its work on the design, planning, permitting and other aspects of the project. This proposed team is expected to complete over 90% of the scheduled work. The actual amount of work performed by BPD will be based on successful negotiations with local subcontractors such as A. Lindberg and Sons, Inc., Oberstar, Inc., and Associated Constructors, LLC. The final design of CR 595 is not currently included in the Request for Qualifications, (RFQ), but the potential value added by bringing the joint venture and CEC together with the MCRC to finish the CR 595 design would be economical and greatly benefit the project. The combination of CEC’s professional engineering practice and BPD’s construction expertise will result in the best possible final product for Marquette County, Michigan. BPD has been analyzing this project for the past two years. In 2011, BPD began constructability discussions with Rio Tinto during a presentation showcasing our capabilities. As a result, BPD began extensive planning for CR 595. A copy of this presentation is being submitted to the MCRC separately and is available upon request. BPD’s collective experience and preliminary involvement on this project will enable it to design and build the project in the most efficient and expeditious manner. Additionally, our team thoroughly understands the environmental permits along with the rigorous scrutiny of the environmental agencies that will oversee this project. We will minimize the impacts to the traveling public and property owners by using temporary bridges and experienced transportation/safety staff accustomed to maintaining traffic flow and minimizing user delay. BPD has extensive financial resources as acknowledged by our bonding capacity (letters attached). We have included a detailed staging plan highlighting the extensive amount of time and exploration already completed by BPD for the project. As a result of this effort, we believe that a completion date of November 14, 2014 is viable and realistic and our proposed schedule details how we can complete the project ahead of schedule. Based on BPD’s extensive experience in mitigation we believe that July 31, 2015 is a realistic and achievable deadline. Proposal Interpretation MCRC is seeking proposals to provide Construction Manager/General Contractor, (CMGC), services for the CR 595 final design and construction (CR 595) or the CR 550, CR 510 and Triple A design, construction and rehabilitation projects (CR 550). The project connects and improves emergency, commercial, industrial and recreational access to an isolated but important area in northwest Marquette County. The project will also reduce unnecessary truck travel through Marquette County population centers. BPD’s interpretation of the project is as follows:

1. The project will be constructed as per MDOT 2012 Standard Specification for Construction and will be administered by the MCRC.

Page 2

2. The CMGC must perform at least 40 percent of the work and provide engineering and construction services to design, engineer, schedule, build and manage all aspects of the project in a safe and timely manner within a proposed budget.

3. The project is expected to be open to traffic and substantially complete no later than November 14, 2014 with final completion and mitigation by July 31, 2015. All as-built drawings must be completed by October 31, 2015.

Due to the dynamic nature of proposing a communication plan for either of the proposed projects, BPD recommends utilizing the initial communication plan/framework presented in Figure 2 below from which to further build the communications plan together. Figure 2: BPD Preliminary Communications Plan

regarding the expected flow of communication between MCRC and BPD as well as within the BPD project team. CR 595 Final Design & Construction Pre-construction work to date has focused on route selection, impacts to wetlands and river/stream crossings. As a result of information gathered in the field, property ownership considerations, design engineering principles and input from regulatory agencies, horizontal and vertical alignment of CR 595 has changed several times. Safety, environmental impacts, and constructability were considered in the alignment submitted in the application for permit. The proposed pavement structure includes a minimum of 3 ½ inches of HMA over 8 inches of aggregate base and 24 inches of sand sub-base. The typical cross section includes 12-foot lanes with a 1-foot paved and 3-foot gravel shoulder. Passing relief lanes have been added at several locations to provide opportunities for the traveling public to safely pass slower moving large trucks and recreational vehicles. The wetlands adjacent to the proposed route have been professionally delineated and the permanent impacts calculated. Any approved permit will require care during construction to not impact wetlands outside of the permitted limits. Temporary impacts to wetlands resulting from excavation in peat areas will be allowed in accordance with the proposed plan details. However, no mechanical land clearing machines will be permitted in temporary wetland impact areas. The current design drawings for CR 595 include 26 stream crossings. HEC-RAS analysis has been completed at every crossing with a drainage area larger than 2 square miles to identify the 100 year storm elevation. The TR-55 method was used to calculate design flows at smaller crossings. Finally, at each structure, the elevation of the stream in relation to the road, the bank-full width of the stream and input from regulatory agencies were used to determine whether a conventional box beam bridge, conspan structure or standard box culvert should be used. Geotechnical drilling to determine soil bearing capacities at each structure location have not been completed. Additionally, abutment and superstructures designs will be completed during final project design. Although there was intense effort put into the permitted areas of the project, there is opportunity for value engineering in upland areas. The availability of resources along the route and the likely chance of large quantities of waste material will provide both opportunity and challenge during final design. Stormwater management, including ditch design and cross culvert locations in upland areas must be analyzed in detail. Because the disturbed area is greater than 5 acres a NPDES permit will be needed. The proposed stream mitigation plan to realign Triple A Road in the area of the East Branch of the Salmon Trout River is preliminary. While the crossing has been analyzed in detail, the final design of roadway improvements associated with this crossing is yet to be completed. There are numerous responsibilities associated with submitted permit compliance. This project and the associated impacts to wetlands and streams have been highly scrutinized by regulatory agencies at a state and national level. Any permit will include many construction related conditions. CEC has already helped MCRC and Rio Tinto analyze draft permit conditions provided by MDEQ in the spring of 2012. CEC’s direct involvement has resulted in specific plan changes. Our team will put forth a dedicated field effort to ensure compliance with permits and conditions. Some of these tasks will include:

Page 4

Staking limits of permitted activities in wetlands.

Monitoring construction activity in or near wetlands.

Ensuring proper erosion control measures are in place prior to starting work and inspected regularly for proper maintenance and functionality.

Inspecting all necessary structures.

Ensuring that only necessary clearing in wetland areas outside of the slope intercept is done by non-mechanical methods.

CR 550, CR 510, Triple A Design Construction & Rehabilitation The CR 550 alternative is drastically different than CR 595. CR 550 includes improvements to existing county roads. The changes to horizontal and vertical alignments are mostly limited to the Triple A and CR 510 portions of the project. There have been discussions regarding the reconstruction of small portions of CR 550 near the Little and Big Garlic Rivers and near Alder Creek. These options will need to be considered in more detail during the project design. CR 550 between the City of Marquette and CR 510 includes pavement and bridges in varying conditions. Portions of the roadway will require simple HMA overlays while others must be crushed and shaped in order to provide an all-season roadway. Of the 4 bridges along CR 550, 2 have been designed and are scheduled to be replaced by MCRC as part of their normal STP funded program. Appropriate improvements must be developed during project design. The existing roadside drainage along CR 550 is adequate and will require little modification. Finally, existing underground and overhead utilities will be an important consideration during project design. CR 510 and Triple A Road are existing gravel roads that have been improved and maintained by Rio Tinto since development at the Eagle Mine. The first 0.7 miles of Triple A Road from the mine site east to Trail 5 will be funded by MDOT and is not considered part of this project. Improvements to the crossing of the East Branch of the Salmon Trout River are preliminary. The remaining segments of CR 510 and Triple A Road have been surveyed by either aerial topography or field surveys. Preliminary horizontal and vertical alignments have been developed and will help expedite final design. Utility considerations along CR 510 and Triple A Road include a high voltage underground electrical line installed to service the Eagle Mine Site. Staging CR 550 will be more challenging than CR 595. However, constructing CR 550 is much more conventional and plays to our team’s strengths. Because these routes are the only access to the Eagle Mine Site and mine development will be ongoing, access must be maintained at all times. Our group is highly experienced in reconstructing heavily traveled roadways while safely maintaining traffic flow. An application for permit to impact wetlands along this route has not been initiated and will have a large impact on scheduling of construction activities related to the bridges along the route. Because CR 550 will disturb more than five acres, a NPDES permit will be required. EXPERIENCE/PAST PERFORMANCE: The CR 595 project is a large earthwork project requiring extensive amounts of drilling and blasting, aggregate production, 100,000+ tons of asphalt paving and 9 highway structures. CR 550, while different, also has a large amount of asphalt paving, grading, pulverizing, road reconstruction and bridge construction. Although either project’s work is standard in our industry, the contract size and

Page 5

short construction schedule are rare. Each member of our team brings unique skills and expertise needed for this complex project. Bacco Construction Company, (Bacco), is the largest earthwork contractor in Upper Michigan. It specializes in large earth excavation projects and structures such as box culverts, culverts and various structures of this type including road reconstruction. Payne and Dolan, Inc., (P&D), is one of the largest paving companies in the Midwest with numerous permanent and portable plants. P&D is also one of the largest drilling and blasting companies and aggregate producers in the Midwest. Zenith Tech, Inc., (ZTI), is a large, multi-state bridge builder. Coleman Engineering Company, (CEC), is a multi-disciplinary engineering firm with areas of practice that include professional engineering, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, construction materials field and laboratory testing, test drilling, and land and construction surveying. None of the member organizations have defaulted or failed to complete an awarded contract within the past 5 years. The following are representative projects that showcase our team members construction capabilities, design build experience on complex projects and ability to work as a team: 2008 – 2009 Mackinac Bridge Reconstruction, Mackinac and Cheboygan County, MI The bridge is the State of Michigan’s largest asset and one of the world’s largest suspension bridges. Payne & Dolan, Inc. was the general contractor on this project. The work included engineering services, paving and oversight of subcontractors performing concrete deck and steel joint repairs. Most notably, Payne and Dolan, Inc. designed the specialized modified asphaltic pavement used on the 4.18 mile bridge. The project schedule was critical. An early spring schedule required construction in extreme weather conditions, including gale force winds and paving in temperatures of 30oF to 40oF. P&D successfully managed lane closures while providing access to businesses on both sides of the bridge. The project was completed on time within budget and won a National Asphalt Pavement Association Award. 2012 CR 557, Marquette County, MI Payne and Dolan, Inc. reconstructed a section of CR 557 in Forsyth Township during the early fall of 2012. The project was a 2 mile stretch of crush and shape followed by two lifts of asphalt. The project involved excavation and placement of sub-base (including a geo-grid system), placement of aggregate base course and final paving. Aggregate shoulders, embankment, guardrail, and pavement markings were also installed as part of the project. The project was completed on time within budget and safely with no incidents. Traffic was maintained throughout the 2 mile job utilizing Payne and Dolan, Inc. traffic regulators. All residences and businesses had access throughout the project. 2010 CR 550 / 510 Intersection Modification, Marquette County, MI Payne and Dolan, Inc. reconstructed the existing intersection between CR 550 and CR 510 in Big Bay, MI. P&D constructed the new intersection under full traffic. Additionally access was maintained on CR 510 to the Kennecott Eagle Mine Site. The project also had a crush and shape portion of approximately 1 mile along CR 550. Traffic was maintained utilizing Payne and Dolan, Inc. traffic regulators with total access to businesses and residents. The project experienced no accidents and was finished on time with a high level of quality. 2008 Silver Lake Basin Reconstruction, Marquette County, MI. The project was built by Bacco Construction Company for UPPCO and was 5 miles east of the northern end of the proposed CR 595; a remote area in the northern part of Marquette County. The project required the reconstruction of an earthen dam plus the construction of a concrete spillway. Over

Page 6

200,000 cyds of earth and rock were moved to complete the project. Also required was the import of many specialty materials along with over 2,000 cyds of concrete for the spillway construction. The logistics of this work required a great deal of coordination with suppliers and subcontractors to complete this project in such a remote area. During the second phase of this project Bacco built a 12 acre wetland to mitigate wetlands that were lost during the original dam failure. 2009 USH 41/M 28 Marquette County, Michigamme, Michigan. The $5.6M project was constructed by Bacco Construction Company for MDOT and consisted of the realignment and reconstruction of a 4 mile section of USH 41. The project included over 200,000 cyds of earth excavation and sub-base with over 50,000 cyds of solid rock blasting and excavation through a 30 to 40 foot solid rock bluff. Bacco also produced and placed an additional 45,000 tons of aggregate base and 25,000 tons of asphalt paving along with the installation of a 200’ long 14’ x 9’ box culvert. This project was constructed under regular USH 41 traffic using many traffic shifts and staged construction to complete this project on time and budget. 2010-2012 Kennecott Eagle Mine Site Civil Construction, Marquette County, Michigan. Bacco Construction Company was chosen by Rio Tinto to perform the entire site civil work package for the new mine. The project included all excavation, piping, utilities, concrete paving, asphalt paving and restoration work required. This project is located just north of the proposed CR 595 in a remote region of Marquette County and required intense coordination with subcontractors and suppliers due to its location. Between July 15, 2010 and November 1, 2010 Bacco moved over 750,000 cyds of earth to establish the site; enabling other contractors to start the water treatment plant and other buildings on site. In addition to the rough grading, Bacco placed thousands of feet of sewer, water and storm piping along with over 3,000 cyds of concrete pavement and over 25,000 tons of asphalt pavements. Another key component of this project was developing the Portal or entrance to the mine. This portion of the project consisted of an elaborate sheeting system, massive concrete footings and placement of over 240’ of an 18’ x 24’ multi-plate pipe. In order to complete this project in a very small timeframe, Bacco teamed with ZTI and completed the Portal ahead of schedule and under budget. Site safety and environmental compliance was, and is, of paramount importance to Rio Tinto and Bacco and during this project Bacco had zero environmental incidents and worked over 54,000 man hours without a recordable injury or lost time accident. 2012 Reconstruction of USH 41 between Marquette and Harvey Michigan, Marquette County, MI. The $6.2M project was built by Bacco Construction Company for MDOT and consisted of 30,000 syds of pavement removal, 74,000 cyds of earth excavation, 2,000 cyds of rock excavation, 53,000 cyds of sub-base, 42,000 tons of aggregate base and 35,000 tons of asphalt pavement. This project involved many stages and traffic shifts while dealing with the continuous traffic flow for one of the busiest corridors in Marquette County. Working with MDOT, the City of Marquette, the townships and several sub-contractors, Bacco was able to complete the new 5 lane highway and open it to traffic one month ahead of schedule and delivered it on budget. 2007-Present CR 595 and CR 550, CR 510 and Triple A Engineering and Design, Marquette County, MI CEC has been involved with transportation planning and design for the Eagle Mine and Eagle Mill sites since 2007, completing a variety of tasks in cooperation with Rio Tinto, Marquette County, Consulting Specialists and Regulatory Agencies. Originally, efforts revolved around familiarizing professional staff with the terrain and geography of northern Marquette County. ATV’s and snowmobiles were used to

Page 7

access remote areas and combined with digital mapping software in order to evaluate the feasibility of constructing a road through varying terrain. In cooperation with King and MacGregor Environmental, CEC has completed wetland delineation along the entire proposed CR 595 corridor and many of the evaluated alternatives. CEC has also coordinated aerial and field surveying of CR 595, evaluated alternatives and CR 550, CR 510, Triple A in their entirety. Subsurface exploration to determine the depth to rock was conducted in 2010 utilizing drilling and ground penetrating radar analysis. For the last couple of years, CEC has worked closely with Rio Tinto and the Marquette County Road Commission to obtain the required permit to construct CR 595, a process that is ongoing today with attempts to resolve the EPA objection and formalizing a preservation area plan. The CR 550, CR 510, Triple A alternative to CR 595 has been analyzed by CEC concurrently with the option of a new county road to ensure transportation of ore from the Eagle Mine is possible when production begins. CEC has developed preliminary plans for all of the CR 550, CR 510, Triple A alternative including the investigation of several options to bypass the City of Marquette, a point of public tension throughout this project. Construction cost estimates, staging and environmental impacts have all been evaluated by CEC over the last several years. 2002 Sixth Street Viaduct Design-Build, Milwaukee County, WI: Zenith Tech, Inc. was part of a joint venture that constructed this project. The project was a $50M structure project that consisted of 2 cable stay approach structures and 2 bascule type lift bridges. In addition to the structures, ZTI was responsible for the roadway tie-in work. ZTI was the lead partner in the joint venture and successfully worked with our 2 partners, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the City of Milwaukee, and numerous community and business groups to construct this project within the owner’s budget and schedule. The project was very successful. 2007 – 2010 Marquette Interchange Reconstruction, Milwaukee County, WI: Zenith Tech, Inc. was part of a 3 company joint venture that completed reconstruction of the major urban freeway interchange in downtown Milwaukee. The contract value was $350M. A major challenge on this project was the requirement to keep the interchange open to traffic during construction. This project was a traditional low bid contract with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. ZTI’s ability to work with other contractors, owners and their representatives contributed greatly to the success of this project. The project opened several months ahead of schedule and well under budget. These projects highlight BPD’s broad capabilities and expertise in various, complex construction settings. Our local team is uniquely qualified to successfully construct both CR 595 and CR 550. WORK ZONE SAFETY: BPD will safely complete this project by creating an environment free from recognizable safety hazards for our employees, our subcontractors, and the general public. Work will be performed in the safest possible manner and environment while maintaining compliance with all applicable safety standards and regulations established by the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MIOSHA), the Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and pursuant to all other Federal, State and local laws. Our program emphasizes an active safety culture where all employees and subcontractors are involved with incident prevention efforts.

Page 8

Due to the remote location and short construction season, the project will involve several unique safety challenges. The following are some effective ways in which traffic will be maintained throughout the project and accidents may be minimized or mitigated: Message Boards: Message boards will be utilized to inform traffic of construction closures and potential alternative routes. Boards will be located as needed throughout the project to keep the public informed. Pilot Car Operation: Pilot cars will be utilized. The members have successfully utilized pilot cars on multiple projects to aid in traffic flow and to keep traffic moving safely throughout the project. Pilot car operations are especially effective in more complicated work zones. They are particularly effective on crush and shape operations or areas where traffic is diverted multiple times throughout a closure. Traffic Regulators: Traffic regulators will be utilized in conjunction with pilot car operations to control traffic. Regulators will also be utilized in areas where pilot cars are not required or not feasible. Regulators will primarily operate in locations where traffic is reduced to one lane. Staging Areas and Project Access: Staging areas will be developed at predetermined locations throughout the project. Each staging area will be identified with signage for emergency response. Additionally, the project staff will ensure that there is a form of effective communication, first aid supplies, and firefighting equipment for emergency response purposes at each staging area. Please refer to Attachment 1 that portrays our preliminary analysis of potential staging areas along the designed route. Communication: Project communication will be maintained by VHF radios allowing for effective communication between traffic regulators and key field personnel. The radios will ensure that communication can be maintained for emergency response. Radio towers and/or repeaters will be located (as needed) throughout the project to ensure communication is maintained. Additional safety information including proposed traffic pattern information has been developed in conjunction with the proposed schedule and is discussed further in the schedule management section to follow. SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT: CR595 Final Design & Construction Innovation for this project will come in the form of the conceptual framework that is developed to construct the project. The schedule put forth in the RFQ document is aggressive given the magnitude of the project and the challenges associated with limited access to the site. To manage CR 595 most effectively, BPD proposes that the project is managed in 5 independent sections, A through E, as outlined in Table 1 below. Each section will be performed by an independent construction crew selected for their expertise regarding the challenges within the segment while being managed simultaneously and congruently by key staff and support personnel of BPD. A key strategy in this plan is maintaining access to construct the middle segments of the project. To accomplish this, we propose that the first operation will build an access road from the north and place temporary stream crossings at stations 1565+25, 1506+75 and 1352+50. We will work with the designer during the final design phase to determine what types of structures are needed for these temporary crossings.

*subject to change based on outcome of final design phase Section A: This section of CR 595 closely follows the alignment of Wolf Lake Road. As the longest segment, the section has the smallest amount of grading. Some of this grading will need to be built part-width to accommodate local traffic. Traffic will be detoured around the 2 bridges in this section and the 4 box culverts will be constructed part-width. Construction of the bridges in this segment will commence in 2013, beginning with constructing the bridge at station 16+50. Once complete, we plan to next construct the bridge at station 261+00. Only the residential part of this section at the very south end, (approximately the first mile), will need to be done part width. The existing Middle Branch Escanaba River Bridge will remain in operation until the new bridge is ready for service. Camps located near Brocky Lake will use Dishno Road to the west and Sleepy Hollow Road to the east for access. There are a small number of camps, (less than 5 ~ approximately), located near Wolf Lake Road between the residential area and Brocky Lake. Some minor accommodations may be required to provide access to these camps. The remainder of this segment during construction should be considered “closed”, rather than “under traffic.” Section B: Section B has the greatest amount of excavation in the shortest length with 479,000 cyds of excavation. As currently designed, most of this is excess excavation. There is 1 box culvert, 1 conspan and 2 bridges, (one with a 120’ span). Upon the completion of the bridges in section A, work will commence on the bridges in this section at stations 453+00 and 517+00 concurrently. Upon completion of these 2 structures, roadway access can be constructed to the final structure in the southern portion of this project at station 491+00. This section does not follow an existing road for the majority of its length. Therefore, detouring around the new bridges will not be necessary. Dishno Road will cross this segment once, but will not be otherwise disturbed by construction activity. CR 595 will follow Tin Shack Road for about a ½ mile near Wolf Lake Road. This portion of Tin Shack Road can be disturbed at any time as there is access to the south off of Dishno Road. Section C: Section C is the only significant balanced section (cut = fill). Traffic will be maintained using part-width construction and detours where available. There are 3 box culverts and 1 conspan. Bridge traffic will need to be temporarily detoured and is positioned at the end of this section. Recreational Trail 5 will be rerouted prior to construction of this segment and therefore, detours are not needed. The proposal includes building a temporary crossing at station 1352+50 at the beginning of the project in 2013. Upon completion of the bridges in Section D, (scheduled for construction the start of the 2014 season), construction of the permanent structure will begin at station 1352+50. Section D: As currently designed, Section D has approximately 170,000 cyds of excess excavation in the first 25 stations and the remainder is somewhat balanced. This section has the greatest number of structures with 8 box culverts and 2 conspans. The proposal includes building temporary crossings for

Page 10

this segment at the beginning of the project in 2013 at stations 1506+75 and 1565+25. Construction of the permanent structures in these locations is planned for the start of the 2014 construction season. Section E: Section E has only 1 bridge which will be accessed from the north off of Triple A Road. As currently designed, the first mile will generate approximately 100,000 cyds of excess excavation and then balances towards the end. Launching from Triple A Road for this segment seems prudent, but the bridge over the Yellow Dog River is in the same location as the existing bridge. Since this is the only access point to the rest of segment E, a temporary bridge may be needed to maintain traffic flow. Construction of the permanent bridge structure will commence in 2014 upon completion of the structures at stations 1506+75 and 1565+25 in Section D. BPD plans to construct all 5 sections concurrently by organizing the project into 5 sub-projects. This will require 5 independent earthwork crews working on grubbing, earth excavation, culverts, box culverts, and aggregate placement. It will also include 3 main bridge crews working on coffer dams, earth retention systems, beam setting, concrete false work, and temporary access bridges. 2 to 3 drilling and blasting crews to remove major rock cuts are planned. We will utilize 2 portable crushing operations working to supply aggregate to the 5 various construction crews. The paving crews will be supplied by both a portable and a permanent asphalt plant operation. In each section, access to and around bridges will be established first and then drainage with culverts, box culverts, and conspans will be established with grading to follow. Construction access throughout the length of the corridor is paramount. BPD will provide input to the design team concerning temporary stream crossings to help accomplish this effort. The preliminary projected completion date is October 17, 2014. CR 510, CR 550 and Triple A Design, Construction & Rehabilitation Table 2 and Table 3 below provide a general overview of the proposed CR 550 project. The Triple A Road involves multiple relocation sections, the most significant being between Stations 223+00 and 349+00. The Triple A Road section, as currently designed has approximately 273,000 cyds of excess material. CR 510 closely follows the existing alignment. The final design parameter goal would be to reduce the amount of excess material in the relocated sections and the project phasing/scheduling would be dictated by maintenance of traffic issues.

INNOVATIONS: One of the key ways to incorporate innovation into the design process is to have a thorough understanding of engineering design and how it relates to the construction process. Extensive knowledge of equipment that is used in the construction process will in turn allow these 2 potential projects to be built in the most efficient manner possible. Some bridge innovations that will be incorporated in the design and construction are prefabricated elements for box culverts and Con/Spans including wingwalls and headwalls that meet FHWA’s PBES “Every Day Counts” initiative, (P1 U.S. Forest Service, Ottawa NF). Likewise, items such as partial depth decking for pre-stress bridges and

Page 14

precast concrete footings for the Con/Span three-sided arch culverts could expedite footing construction by approximately 1 week per site (SOQ CR 595: E102, B3, D57, B4). Another key innovation that will add efficiency is BPD’s intelligent compaction machines. BPD owns and operates some of the first machines of their kind in the country. One of the key aspects of a properly constructed roadway is achievement of adequate densities on sub-base and base materials. In a project of this scope, being built in such a short timeframe, this element is critical. These machines provide instantaneous quality control measurements as the road structure is being built. This QC information is critical for all the structures being placed as well as the roadbed itself. This information ensures proper performance and compaction of the pavement and structure subgrades which in turn are key to long-life performance of the roadway. This equipment greatly improves efficiency and also increases production by eliminating over-rolling and rework because it identifies potential problem areas and provides continuous results to the operator as construction takes place. To complement the compaction equipment, GPS guided and controlled equipment will be used to ensure that all material is placed at proper grades and locations and is done in the most efficient manner possible. GPS controlled equipment reduces the need for the various crews to wait for surveyors to set and check grades. The operators are directed by state-of-the-art computer and guidance systems that provide instantaneous and constant grade checking to ensure the least amount of material is moved and placed in the most efficient manner possible. Members of BPD are some of the foremost experts in the country on the use of warm mix asphalt, (WMA), which is used as a compaction aid in asphaltic pavement. We have paved over 1 million tons of asphalt, using various compaction aids, which allow asphalt pavements to be laid at lower ambient air temperatures while still achieving the compaction necessary. The use of additives could be vital in extending the days of favorable paving and allowing more versatility in the staging of this project. The use of the compaction aid also allows asphalt to be hauled further distances. Lastly this type of pavement is considered to be a green technology because it limits and reduces the amount of greenhouse gases produced than conventional hot mix asphalt. One of the alternatives has a major crush and shape component. Members of BPD own and operate TEREX 950 pulverizers, which are unique in type and size. With the team members proprietary teeth design and configuration, these machines are one of the highest, production pulverizing machines in the country. SUMMARY: Bacco/Payne & Dolan, Joint Venture provides the project with a thoroughly integrated construction services group which includes engineering, construction and supervisory expertise, environmental and technical support, state-of-the art equipment, skilled resources and safety management. Awarding the project to BPD provides MCRC the capability to complete all elements of the project safely, to the highest standards in the construction industry, while finishing construction on time and within budget.
