VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders ( out-of-State contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required too underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the nonresident's principal place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-State or nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-State or nonresident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A.

This project is designated as DOE 5441. This geotechnical evaluation consists of a detailed geotechnical study and pavement design in accordance with the City of Port Worth Pavement Design Manual of 2005 . Based on conversations with the City of Port Worth Project Manager, the streets will be reconstructed with rigid Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement. 2.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES Our services for this project were performed in general conformance with our Proposal No. PROP06FTW0.0144, dated October 9, 2006. The purposes of this geotechnical evaluation were to: • Explore the subsurface conditions at the site. • Characterize the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions. • Provide comments and recommendations regarding site grading and drainage. • Provide recommendations for sub grade stabilization, if appropriate. • Provide pavement thickness design based on the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards, dated 2005. 3.0 FIELD EXPLORATION A total of five test borings ( designated as Borings B-1 through B-5) were drilled within the limits of the proposed project streets on January 12 and 16, 2007. The approximate boring locations are shown on the enclosed Boring Location Plan (Figure 1 ). All borings were drilled to a depth of 10 feet. A truck-mounted drill rig was used to advance the borings and to obtain samples for laboratory evaluation. Undisturbed specimens of the cohesive soils were obtained continuously to the top of the bedrock using standard, seamless tube samplers . MACTEC Engineering and Consulting, Inc . R eport No. 4900-06-8001 Page I DOE 5441 Jeff Street and Nelson Avenu e, Pavement Design, Fort Worth, Texas March 14, 2007 The samples were extruded in the field , logged, sealed and packaged to protect them from disturbance and to maintain their in-situ moisture contents during transportation to our laboratory. Sampling depths for the soil samples are presented on the Logs of Borings (Figures 2 through 6). 4.0 LABORATORY TESTING The project geotechnical engineer examined the samples at our laboratory and revised the field classifications as necessary. Selected samples were subjected to laboratory tests under the supervision of this engineer. The laboratory tests include Atterberg limits (ASTM D 4318), moisture content measurements (ASTM D2216) and percentage finer than the No. 200 sieve (ASTM D 1140). These tests are required by the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards. The results of these tests are provided on the Logs of Borings presented on Figures 2 through 6. 5.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS A brief description of the conditions that were encountered in the borings is presented below. A more detailed description of the subsurface conditions is presented on the attached Logs of Borings. It should be noted that the boundaries between the various soil types are approximate and may vary. In addition, the depths shown on the Boring Logs refer to the depths from the ground surfaces that were present at the time of the field exploration program. 5.1 Site Geology This site is located in an area underlain by Fluviatile terrace deposits overlying the Woodbine Formation. The Fluviatile deposits generally consist of gravel , sand, and clay. The Woodbine Formation is highly complex with many discontinuous layers which generally consist of highly plastic clays through sandy clays and silts, to sands and gravel. These materials may vary widely over very short distances both horizontally and vertically. Dense seams and layers of sandstone often occur at irregular intervals throughout the formation . MACTEC Engin e ering and Con sulting, Inc . R eport No . 4900-06-8001 Page2 DOE 5441 Jeff Street and Nelson Avenue, Pavement Design , Fort Worth , Tex as March 14 , 200 7 5.2 Stratigraphy All borings were drilled through the existing pavement sections . At Nelson A venue (Borings B-1 and B-2), the pavement section consists of one inch of asphalt concrete pavement over 7 to 12 inches of base material. Beneath this pavement section in Boring B-1 is medium dense sand to a depth of 3 feet. Underlying this sand in Boring B-1 and the pavement section in Boring B-2, is loose to very dense yellowish to reddish brown silty to clayey sand to extending to the boring termination depth of 10 feet. At Jeff Street, the pavement section consists of 1 to 6 inches of asphalt overlying 4 to 7 inches of concrete pavement over 7 inches of base material in Borings B-3 and B-4 . In Boring B-5, the pavement section consists of one inch of asphalt over 7 inches of base material. Beneath the pavement section in Boring B-5 is dense brown sand to a depth of 3 feet. Underlying the pavement sections in Borings B-3 and B-4, and the brown sand in Boring B-5 , is medium dense to very dense brown to yellowish brown silty to clayey sand extending to the maximum 10-foot depth explored. The brown sand has in-situ moisture contents of 4 and 7 percent, with the percentage finer than the number 200 sieve of 6 and 18 percent. The brown, yellowish, to reddish brown silty to clayey sand has liquid limit (LL) values of 22 and 33 percent, plastic limit (PL) values of 16 and 19 percent, and corresponding plasticity index (PI) values of 6 and 14 percent. In-situ moisture contents of this sand varied fr.om 5 to 14 percent, with the percentage finer than the number 200 sieve values ranging from 31 to 39 percent. 5.3 Groundwater Conditions All borings were drilled using continuous flight auger methods which allow measurement of ground water during or after completion. Ground-water seepage was not encountered and all borings were dry at completion of drilling. An accurate determination of the uppermost water bearing zone would require the installation of ground-water monitoring wells and a water level monitoring program extending over several days. The presence and amount of ground water will fluctuate seasonally due to variations in the amount of precipitation, infiltration and evaporation. MA CTEC Engin eering and Consulting, Inc .

Therefore , modification or stabilization of the sub grade soils is not required by the City standard. 7.0 PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS Pavement recommendations for this project were developed in accordance with Section 4 of the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards and utilizing the WINP AS computer program which is based on the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures. 7.1 Subgrade Preparation Stabilization is not necessary, based on the results of this investigation. We recommend compaction of the subgrade soil to a minimum of 95 percent of ASTM D 698 or 80 percent of Maximum Index Density as determined in accordance with ASTM D 4253. 7 .2 Pavement Sections Pavement sections for the subdivision were developed based on the soil conditions encountered and The City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards. The following criterion was utilized for pavement design : 1. Traffic Street Classification Des'ign ESALs 2. Subgrade Characteristics Residential-Urban 35,000 Modulus of Subgrade Reaction, k : 500 psi/in. 3. Drainage Coefficient, Cd: 0.80 MACTEC Engin eering and Consulting, In c.

Design Life 25 years 0 % growth for Residential March I 4, 2007 Based on the above criteria, the following pavement section is recommended: TABLE 1. RESIDENTIAL STREET PAVEMENT PORTLAND CEMENT CONCRETE (PCC) SECTION 6 inches PCC 6 inches Compacted Subgrade Table prepared by JC Table checked by TA Concrete quality will be important in order to produce the desired flexural strength and long term durability. We recommend that the concrete have entrained air of 5 percent (± 1 percent) with a maximum water cement ratio of 0.50. A 28-day compressive strength of 4,000 psi is recommended for all PCC pavements . Portland cement concrete pavement types for the streets can be either continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) or jointed reinforced concrete pavements (JRCP). Due to construction over swelling clays, un-reinforced pavement is not recommended. Jointed reinforced concrete pavements are typically used for high volume heavy traffic areas. CRCP will require more longitudinal reinforcing steel resulting in more initial construction costs. Either type of reinforced pavement should perform similarly in this area. Reinforcing steel and joint systems for either type of pavement should be properly designed. Where CRCP is utilized, the percentage oflongitudinal steel is generally 0.5 to 0 .6 percent of the concrete area. Transverse steel for CRCP is based on the subgrade drag theory: Ps = (LF / 2f8) X 100 Where P s = Percent steel by area L = distance between free (untied) joints (feet) MA CTEC Engin eering and Consulting, Inc. Report No . 4900-06-8001 Page5 DOE 5441 Jeff Street and Nelson Avenue, Pavement Design , Fort Worth, Texas F = friction factor for subgrade (1.8 for lime stabilized subgrade) f5 = allowable working stress in steel -psi (0.75 x yield point) March 14 , 2007 Where JRCP is used, both the longitudinal and transverse steel required should be calculated by the subgrade drag equation. We recommend No 3 bars at 18 inches on centers each way for this pavement application. Proper joint placement and design is critical to pavement performance . Load transfer at all longitudinal joints and maintenance of water-tight joints should be accomplished by use of tie bars. Control joints should be sawed within 5 to 12 hours after placing concrete. Joints should also be properly cleaned and sealed as soon as possible to avoid infiltration of water, small gravel, etc. We have found that joint spacing on 12 to 15-foot centers have generally performed satisfactorily. Expansion joints should be on a 60-foot spacing and be sealed with an elastomeric joint sealant. Dowel bars should be 0.50 inch diameter smooth bars, 16 inches in length, and spaced at 12 inches on center. 7 .3 Special Pavement Considerations We recommend all pavement subgrade areas be proofrolled after removal of existing pavement and base material. Proofrolling can generally be accomplished using a heavy (25 ton or greater total weight) pneumatic tired roller making several passes over the areas. Where soft or compressible zones are encountered, these areas should be removed to a firm sub grade. Wet or very moist surficial materials may need to be undercut and either dried or replaced with proper compaction or replaced with a material that can be properly compacted. Any resulting void areas should be backfilled to finished subgrade in 6-inch compacted lifts compacted to 95 percent of maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D 698 or to 80 percent of the Maximum Index Density as determined in accordance with ASTM D 4253. Achieving the required field density is dependent upon the magnitude of compaction energy and the maintenance of field moisture near optimum. All joints and pavements should be inspected at regular intervals to ensure proper performance and to prevent crack propagation. MA CTEC Eng ineering and Consulting, Inc . Report No. 4900-06-8001 Page6 DOE 5441 Jeff Street and Nelson Avenue, Pavement Design, Fort Worth , Texas March 14 , 200 7 The service life of paving may be reduced due to water infiltration into sub grade soils through cracks in the paving section. This will result in softening and loss of strength of the subgrade soils . A regular maintenance program to seal paving cracks and joints will help prolong the service life of paving. The life of the pavement can be increased with proper drainage . Streets should be graded to prevent ponding adjacent to curbs or pavement edges. Curb areas should be backfilled as soon as practical after the concrete has set, preferably with the on-site soils. Backfill materials, which could hold water behind the curb, should not be permitted. Flat pavement grades should be avoided. 8.0 LIMITATIONS The professional services, which have been performed, the findings obtained, and the recommendations prepared were accomplished in accordance with currently accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices.
