VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 3 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

3.2 DEFINITIONS Activity - A discrete, identifiable task or event that usually has an expected duration, has a definable Start Date and/or Finish Date, and can be used to plan, schedule, and monitor a project. Activity, Controlling - The first incomplete activity on the critical path. Activity, Critical - An activity on the critical path. Actual Start date - At the activity level, the Actual Start date represents the point in time that meaningful work actually started on an activity. Actual Finish date - At the activity level, the Actual Finish date represents the point in time that work actually ended on an activity (Note: in some applications areas, the activity is considered “finished” when work is “substantially complete.”); at the project level, the Actual Finish date represents the point in time that the Design-Builder completes all work on the Project and it is accepted by the Project Manager. Baseline Progress Schedule - The Progress Schedule submitted by the Design-Builder that shows the plan to complete the Contract Work. The Baseline Progress Schedule represents the Design-Builder’s plan at the time of Notice to Proceed for completing the Project. Completion Date, Contract - The date specified in the Contract for completion of the Project or a revised date resulting from properly executed time extensions. Completion Date Scheduled - The date forecasted by the Progress Schedule for the completion of the Project. Constraint - A schedule restriction imposed on the Start or Finish date(s) of an activity that modifies or overrides an activity’s relationships. Contemporaneous Period Analysis Method – A technique for evaluating schedule delays or time savings. The analysis period for the purpose of these provisions shall be monthly in each regular progress update to the schedule. Data Date – The date entered in the Project Details, in the Dates tab, which is used as the starting point to calculate the schedule. For the Baseline Progress Schedule submission the Data Date shall be the Notice to Proceed Date; for Monthly Progress Schedule submissions, the Data Date shall be the date up to which the Design-Builder is reporting progress (generally the last work day for the month, and for Weekly Status Reports the Data Date shall be the Saturday of that week). Everything occurring earlier than the Data Date is "as-built" and everything on or after the Data Date is "planned." Deliverable – Any measurable, tangible, verifiable outcome, result, or item that must be produced to complete a project or part of a project. Often used more narrowly in reference to an external deliverable, this is a deliverable that is subject to approval by the Department. Design-Builder’s First Day of Construction Work – The day the Design-Builder starts field work within the highway Right-of-Way, which is entered as a Start milestone activity in the schedule. Design-Builder’s Last Day of Work – The last day of physical work in the field, and the Design-Builder has demobilized (no longer has any presence within the highway right-of-way). Design-Builder Work Day - A calendar day scheduled for active prosecution of Contract work

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 4 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

by the Design-Builder or the Design-Builder’s representative. Draft Baseline Progress Schedule – An optional schedule submission that reflects an outline of the schedule format and content proposed by the Design-Builder’s Project Scheduler to comply with the schedule provisions in the contract to solicit early comments by the Project Manager, prior to the submittal of complete Baseline Progress Schedule. Duration, Original - The original estimated number of work days (not including holidays or other non-working periods) in which the work task associated with the activity is expected to be performed. (The number of calendar days may be different based on the calendar assigned to the activity.) For certain activities such as concrete curing, or others approved by the Project Manager, the calendar shall not reflect non-work days. Duration, Remaining - The estimated time, expressed in work days (not including holidays or other non-working periods), needed to complete an activity that has started but has not finished. Early Completion Schedule - A progress schedule will be considered an early completion schedule when the schedule submitted by the Design-Builder indicates a completion date that is earlier than the specified Project Completion Date, or when the Finish date of any Interim Milestone work activity is earlier than the date specified in the Contract. This includes, but is not limited to, activities subject to Incentive/Disincentive provisions and/or specific Liquidated Damages provisions, and Lane Rental activities. Early Dates – The earliest date an activity can start or finish based upon logic and durations. Calculated by the software application when scheduling the Project. Enterprise Project Management Database (EPMD) – The Department’s database of construction project Progress Schedules. Final Baseline Progress Schedule - The plan, accepted by the Department, against which the Design-Builder’s progress is measured. The Final Baseline Progress Schedule represents the plan, after Notice to Proceed is issued to the Design-Builder, of how procurement, design and construction is expected to proceed. Once the Final Baseline Progress Schedule is accepted by the Department’s Project Manager it is saved and used as a basis to compare against Progress Schedules Updates. Float Suppression - Utilization of zero free float constraints which allows an activity to start as late as possible by using all its' available free float. This technique allows activities to appear more critical than if the activity's total float was based on early dates. Assigning zero free float prevents true sharing of total float between Department and the Design-Builder. Utilization of overly generous activity durations and overly restrictive calendar non-working periods are also considered to cause float suppression. Float, Free - The amount an activity can slip without delaying the immediate successor activities. Free Float is the property of an activity and not the network path. Float, Total - The amount of time an activity (or chain of activities) can be delayed from its early start without delaying the Project Completion Date. Total Float is calculated and reported for each activity in a network, however, Total Float is an attribute of a network path and not associated with any one specific activity along that path. Fragnet – A subdivision of a project network diagram usually representing some portion of the Project. Global data – Data classified by Oracle Primavera software as Global, including Project Codes,

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 5 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

Global Activity Codes, Global Calendars, Resource Calendars, Global Filters, Resources, Global Reports, User Defined Fields and Unit of Measure. Initial Baseline Progress Schedule - The Progress Schedule submitted by the Proposer that shows the plan to complete the Contract Work. The Initial Baseline Progress Schedule represents the Design-Builder’s plan at the time of Proposal Due Date for completing the Project. Key Plans - Key Plans are graphic representations made by the Design-Builder’s Project Scheduler on paper copies of the appropriate Contract plan sheets that reflect the Design- Builder’s planned breakdown of the Project for scheduling purposes to efficiently communicate the Design-Builder’s activity coding scheme to State scheduling staff. The key plans prepared by the Design-Builder shall clearly define the boundaries of the work for each designated Area, the operations contained in various Stages of work, and work in the Work Zone Traffic Control (WZTC) Phases. The alphanumeric codes on the key plans shall match the code values for the activity code "Area", “Stage”, and “WZTC Phase” in the Progress Schedule. Late Dates –The latest an activity can start or finish without delaying the day of completion. Longest Path - The sequence of activities through the Progress Schedule network that establishes the Scheduled Completion Date Milestone – An activity with zero duration that typically represents a significant event, usually the beginning and end of the Project, milestones set forth in the Contract, construction stages, a major work package, or the Contract interim time-related clauses. Narrative Report - A descriptive report submitted with each Progress Schedule. Open End - The condition that exists when an activity has either no predecessor or no successor, or when an activity’s only predecessor relationship is a finish-to-finish relationship or only successor relationship is a start-to-start relationship. Predecessor - An activity that is defined by Schedule logic to precede another activity. A predecessor may control the Start Date or Finish Date of its successor. Progress Schedule – A general Primavera P6 Schedule as defined by this Special Provision. Progress Schedule Delay - An event, action, or other factor that delays the critical path of the Progress Schedule and extends the time needed for completion of the construction project. Progress Schedule Revision – Revisions to the Progress Schedule ensure it accurately reflects the current means and methods of how the Project is anticipated to progress, including modifications made to any of the following items: (a) changes in logic connections between activities; (b) changes in constraints; (c) changes to activity descriptions; (d) activity additions or deletions; (e) changes in activity code assignments; (f) changes in activity production rates; and (g) changes in calendar assignments. Progress Schedule Update – Changes to the Progress Schedule that reflect the status of activities that have commenced or have been completed, including the following items: (a) Actual Start date and or Actual Finish date as appropriate; (b) Remaining Duration for activities commenced and not complete; and (c) Suspend or Resume dates for activities commenced and not complete. Project Scheduler – The person that is responsible for developing and maintaining the Progress Schedule.

Projects Planned Start Date – The date entered in the Project Details, in the Dates tab, that reflects the Design-Builder’s planned start of work (based on Contract requirements, and reasonable expectation for a Notice to Proceed) at the Proposal Due Date. Recovery Schedule – A schedule depicting the plan for recovery of significant time lost on the Project. This separate CPM schedule submission shall provide the resolution and include appropriate changes in network logic, calendar adjustments, or resource assignments. Relationships - The interdependence among activities. Relationships link an activity to its predecessors and successors. Relationships are defined as: Finish to Start - The successor activity can start only when the current activity finishes. Finish to Finish – The finish of the successor activity depends on the finish of the current activity. Start to Start – The start of the successor activity depends on the start of the current activity. Start to Finish – The successor activity cannot finish until the current activity starts. Scheduling/Leveling Report – The report generated by the software application when a user “Schedules” the project. It documents the settings used when scheduling the project, along with project statistics, errors/warnings, scheduling/leveling results, exceptions, etc. Successor - An activity that is defined by Schedule logic to succeed another activity. The Start Date or Finish Date of a successor may be controlled by its predecessor. Time Impact Analysis (TIA) – A technique to demonstrate the comparison of a time impact of a Progress Schedule revision prior to a change in the Contract work, against the current accepted Progress Schedule. Also known as a “What-If” analysis. A Time Impact Analysis is used to evaluate proposed changes to future work activities in the schedule. Weekly Status Report – The report generated weekly from the updated Progress Schedule in an electronic Adobe Acrobat PDF format that reflects a Data Date for that Progress Schedule Update period. The report shall be formatted to fit ANSI Size D or B paper, using the Weekly Status Report Layout The Report shall be used in the weekly progress meetings. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) - A deliverable-oriented grouping of project elements, which organizes and defines the total scope of the Project. Each descending level represents an increasingly detailed definition of project components or work packages. Work Package - A deliverable at the lowest level of the work breakdown structure. A work package contains activities.

3.3 CONSTRUCTION DETAILS 3.3.1 Project Scheduler The Design-Builder shall designate an individual, entitled the Project Scheduler, who will develop and maintain the Progress Schedule. The Project Scheduler shall be present at the Prestart Schedule Meeting, prepared to discuss, in detail, the proposed sequence of work and methods of operation, and how that information will be communicated through the Progress Schedule. The Project Scheduler shall attend all meetings, or receive meeting minutes that outline schedule related issues of those meetings, which may affect the CPM schedule, VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 7 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

System maintenance will generally be conducted over short time periods between the hours of 10 PM – 6AM, Monday - Friday and on weekends. The Department does perform regular backup of data contained in the EPMD and will make every effort to restore the latest historical copy of Schedule submissions in the event of any data failure of the EPMD. The Design-Builder shall export copies of Project Progress Schedules, Recovery Schedules, and TIA Schedules, after data modifications have been made as their backup of these submissions. In the event a Design-Builder’s authorized user cannot access the software from 6AM to 10PM Monday through Friday, the Design-Builder shall provide written notification to the Project Manager.

Project schedules are developed from the Design-Builder’s knowledge of the Project, and the means and methods represented in those schedules are based on the Design-Builder’s understanding of the Contract documents, and the Design-Builder’s past experience, which are unique to the Design-Builder. Schedule activity data and logic are therefore the intellectual property of the Design-Builder and will not be made available to other Design-Builders. All other schedule data, and all Enterprise data residing on the network servers, are the sole property of the Department.

3.3.3 Prestart Schedule Meeting The Design-Builder shall contact the Department’s Project Manager within ten (10) business days of Contract Notice to Proceed to schedule a Prestart Schedule Meeting. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss essential matters pertaining to the satisfactory scheduling of Project activities, and to resolve any known questions regarding interpretation of the contract requirements for this work.

The Project Scheduler shall be prepared to discuss the following:

1. The proposed hierarchal Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the Progress Schedules. 2. The proposed Project calendars. 3. The proposed Project activity codes, and various code values for each activity code.

4. Specifics of any contract Time-Related Clauses (Incentive/Disincentive, Liquidated Damages, Lane Rental, etc.); 5. The Design-Builder’s schedule methodology to be employed, proposed work sequence and any proposed deviations from the contract plans with respect to Staging or Work Zone Traffic Control phasing. 6. Copies of the Key Plans shall be provided at the meeting. 7. The factors that the Design-Builder determines to control the completion of the Project and any milestone activity completion dates contained therein. 8. The Project Scheduler shall provide an outline for the content of the Narrative report for future Progress Schedule submissions. 9. Schedule submission protocol for Progress Schedule submissions. The Design-Builder shall submit to the Department’s Project Manager for review one week prior to the Prestart Schedule Meeting a copy of the Key Plans, a print out of the proposed Work Breakdown Structure, a print out of each of the proposed Project Calendars showing the Work days versus non-work days and hours per day, and a list of the Code Values for each Project Activity Code proposed to be used in the schedules.

The Department’s Project Manager will be available to answer questions regarding scheduling, including: the availability of Department supplied electronic file(s) containing sample project schedule information, sample progress schedule narratives, Special Notes for CPM Scheduling, and required standard format for CPM Progress Schedules for contract work. The Design- Builder shall schedule meetings as necessary with the Department’s Project Manager to discuss schedule development and resolve schedule issues, until the Final Baseline Progress Schedule is accepted by the Department’s Project Manager.

The Design-Builder is encouraged, but not required, to submit a Draft Baseline Progress Schedule that demonstrates a sample of how the Project Scheduler’s proposed alphanumeric coding structure and the activity identification system for labeling work activities in the CPM progress schedule will conform to the detailed requirements of this Special Provision. The review and comment by the Project Manager of the sample schedule should assist the Project Scheduler in assuring the first submittal of the Baseline Progress Schedule will be in general conformance with the requirements of this Special Provision and other contract requirements, and that major rework of the Baseline Progress Schedule will not be required. This submittal may be made anytime following the Contract Award. Critical items for this review should include but are not limited to: the proposed WBS for subsequent Progress Schedules; the proposed Project Calendars; project Planned Start date; major milestone activities (i.e. - Award, Notice to Proceed, Project Completion); and between fifty to one hundred summary activities for the major work deliverables of the Contract (i.e. – Design bridge 1, design bridge 2, construct bridge 1, construct bridge 2, etc.) that have assigned Activity Ids, Activity Descriptions, Activity Durations, Predecessors, Successors, and Activity Relationships. These summary activities will be broken down into, or supplemented with, individual work activities for the baseline submission. To the extent practicable, the Draft Baseline Progress Schedule should include administrative and procurement activities to be accomplished during the Contract; planned submittal, review, and approval dates for shop drawings, working drawings, fabrication drawings, and Design-Builder supplied plans, procedures, and specifications.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 10 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

Any submission of a Draft Baseline Progress Schedule should be accompanied by a written Narrative that provides details of the Calendar assignments of work days versus non-working days, outlines the sequence of planned operations to complete the Project Work, and provides the proposed Activity Codes and Code values to be assigned to activities in future submissions of Project Progress Schedules. The Department’s Project Manager will review the logic diagram, coding structure, activity identification system, and Narrative; and provide comments for required changes by the Project Scheduler for implementation in the submission of the Baseline Progress Schedule. The Department’s Project Manager will provide written comments on major deficiencies within five (5) Work Days of receipt.

3.3.4 Progress Schedule 3.3.4.1 General In addition to the attributes of the Progress Schedule provisions as set forth in §108-01, the Design-Builder shall prepare, furnish, and maintain a computer-generated Progress Schedule using the Critical Path Method (CPM) utilizing Primavera scheduling software on the Department’s network servers. The CPM Progress Schedule shall be prepared based on the principles defined by the latest issue of the Construction Planning & Scheduling Manual published by the Associated General Contractors of America, except where superseded by the Contract documents such as the Regional CPM Special Notes (if applicable) and this Special Provision.

The Design-Builder and the Department shall use the Progress Schedule to manage the Work, including but not limited to the activities of the Design-Builder, subconsultants, subcontractors, fabricators, the Department, other involved State agencies and authorities, other entities such as utilities and municipalities, and all other relevant parties.

No work other than installation of the Engineer’s Field Office, mobilization, procurement and administrative activities, installation of construction signs, installation of erosion and pollution protection, clearing and grubbing, field measurements, and survey and stakeout will be permitted to start until the Baseline Progress Schedule has been submitted to the Department’s Project Manager, and the Department’s Project Manager determines there are no deficiencies consistent with those identified in paragraph 5.3.5.1.

The Design-Builder will be the sole entity allowed to physically modify the following data within the Progress Schedule: activity IDs; activity descriptions; activity durations; relationships between activities; successors and predecessors, actual start and actual finish dates of activities; planned start and planned finish dates of activities; and activity resources (with the exception that activities assigned resources labeled to reflect Department personnel may be changed to reflect specific individuals, or job roles, within the Department).

The Department may modify certain data associated with the Progress Schedule to ensure conformance to the Department’s Enterprise Project Management standard schedule format. This means that the Department may: create additional layouts, filters and reports; create and edit additional user defined custom data fields; assign Project Codes; add and assign additional project Activity Codes; add and assign additional Cost Account Codes; add and assign additional Resource Codes; enter data in Notebook tabs; modify calendar ID’s (although not the calendar itself); etc; that do not alter the established activities or schedule logic of the Design- Builder. The Department’s Project Manager will communicate to the Design-Builder the types

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 11 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

and scope of changes planned to be made to the Progress Schedules prior to the implementation of those changes. The Design-Builder shall not delete or modify any schedule data entered by the Department without prior approval by the Department’s Project Manager. The schedule data added by the Department shall be incorporated into future schedule submissions of the Design-Builder.

The Design-Builder shall develop the Progress Schedule using, to the maximum extent practicable, the Global Activity Codes (DOT GLOBAL) identified in the Department’s Primavera enterprise solution. Any schedule “Layouts”, “Filters” and “Report” formats that the Design- Builder develops for the various Progress Schedules submissions to the Department’s Project Manager shall be saved and made available to all other users of the Project Schedule with a name that includes the contract D#.

The Department may make copies of the Progress Schedules to perform ‘what-if’ type analysis, which may involve any type of modification to those copies of the schedules.

The purpose of the Progress Schedule, and scheduling provisions in the contract, shall be to:

● Ensure that the Design-Builder and the Department have a detailed plan and resources to complete the Project in accordance with contract time requirements; ● Provide a means of monitoring the progress of the Work; ● Aid in communication and coordination of activities among all affected parties; ● Analyze the effect of changed conditions on any milestone dates or on the Project Completion Date; ● Analyze the effect of change orders for extra work or deductions, and unanticipated delays, on the Project Completion Date; ● Establish a standard methodology for time adjustment analysis based on the principles of the Critical Path Method of scheduling, to analyze delays and resolve construction disputes concerning time; ● Determine appropriate extensions or reductions of Contract Time.

In scheduling and executing the Work, the Design-Builder shall:

a) Sequence the Work commensurate with the Design-Builder’s abilities, resources and the Contract documents. The scheduling of activities is the responsibility of the Design- Builder. b) Ensure that Progress Schedules prepared by the Project Scheduler for submission to the Department are in compliance with the Contract. The intent should be that Schedule submissions and accompanying Narratives are timely, complete, accurate, and in compliance with the Contract. c) Communicate all Contract changes, and decisions or actions taken by the Design- Builder and all subconsultants, subcontractors, fabricators, etc, that effect the Progress Schedule to the Project Scheduler in a timely manner to allow appropriate development, maintenance, and update of the Progress Schedule. d) Include all Work contained in the Contract and all Work directed in writing by the Project

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 12 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

Manager. Work activities directed by the Project Manager to be added to the Contract shall be included in the next Monthly Progress Schedule submission. e) Assure that Progress Schedule Updates reflect the actual dates that Work activities started and completed in the field. f) Break a schedule activity into multiple activities to reflect a discontinuity in the Work if a work activity is suspended in the field and restarted at a later date, and the break between when the Work was suspended to when it was resumed is significant compared to the original activity duration. g) Ensure the Progress Schedule contains all work constraints and Milestones defined in the Contract. h) Schedule the Work using such procedures and staging or phasing as required by the Contract. Work designated as part of separate stages may be performed concurrently with other stages where allowed by the Contract or where approved by the Department.

Failure by the Design-Builder to include any element of work required by the Contract in the accepted Progress Schedule does not relieve the Design-Builder from its responsibility to perform such work.

Should the Design-Builder choose to show activities in the schedule that reflects their plan of Work prior to the Contract Award, the Department does not incur any liability and such Work being performed between the Proposal Due Date and the Contract Award Date shall be considered at risk work.

Errors or omissions on Schedules shall not relieve the Design-Builder from finishing all work within the time limit specified for completion of the Contract.

If the Design-Builder fails to comply with the provisions of this Special Provision, the Department’s Project Manager may suspend payment for any Contract Work.

3.3.4.2 Baseline Progress Schedule a) The Design-Builder shall ensure the Schedule accurately reflects the proposed approach to accomplish the work outlined in the Contract documents and conforms to all requirements of this Special Provision. The Baseline Progress Schedule shall show all the activities for the design and construction for all Work in the Contract and shall indicate the date at which the Work begins and is complete. The Baseline Progress Schedule shall also show design activities including, but not limited to, the various stages of design, design checks, design reviews and the submission dates of checked designs. Any Interim Milestone(s) shall be shown in the Baseline Progress Schedule and may be used by the Department for the assessment of Liquidated Damages.

b) The schedule shall define a complete logical plan that can realistically be accomplished, to execute the Work defined in the Contract.

c) The Schedule shall comply with the work constraints and milestones defined in the Contract as well as all other contractual terms and conditions. The Schedule shall be consistent in all respects with the specific interim Time-Related Contract Provisions, and any order of work requirements of the Contract documents. The Schedule shall meet all

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 13 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

interim milestone dates and shall not extend beyond the Project Completion Date. This submission shall reflect the Design-Builder’s plan at the time of Contract Award, and prior to the start of any Work. No negative float is allowed in the Baseline Progress Schedule submission.

d) Detailed Schedule Requirements - As a minimum, the Design-Builder shall address the following in the Baseline Progress Schedule:

i) Defining Project details and defaults – Within the Dates tab, the “Planned Start” shall be either the Proposal Due Date or the Contract Award Date and the “Data Date” shall be the Notice to Proceed date. Within the Settings tab, define the Critical Activities as the “Longest Path”. The Project Scheduler role does not have security privileges to change this data in the project Details tab, so requests for changes to this data needs to be forwarded to the [email protected]; include in your request the contract D number and the Project ID.

ii) Sufficient activities shall be included to assure that there is adequate planning for the entire Project. The appropriate number of activities will be largely dependent upon the nature, size, and complexity of the Project. In addition to all site construction activities, network activities shall include: activities necessary to depict the procurement/submittal process including shop drawings and sample submittals; the fabrication and delivery of key and long-lead procurement elements; testing of materials, plants, and equipment; settlement or surcharge periods activities; sampling and testing period activities; cure periods; activities related to temporary structures or systems; activities assigned to subcontractors, fabricators, or suppliers; erection and removal of falsework and shoring; major traffic stage switches; activities assigned to the Department and other involved State agencies and authorities, including final inspection; activities to perform punch list work; and activities assigned to other entities such as utilities, municipalities, County government/agencies, and other adjacent contractors. The Schedule shall indicate intended submittal dates, and depict the review and approval periods as defined in the Contract Documents for Department review.

Note 1 – Acceptance Date shall not exceed 40 Work Days from Notice of Award. The Logic Tie shown shall be used as a relationship from the Predecessor to the Activity in the same row. iii) Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) - A multi level hierarchal WBS shall be incorporated. The levels (nodes) shall include, but not be limited to: Level 1- is the project level; and shall have the project name. Level 2- Shall have seven nodes, “REPORTING MILESTONES”, “PLANNING”, “DESIGN”, “ROW”, “PROJECT PROCUREMENT”, “CONSTRUCTION”, and “PROJECT MANAGEMENT” Level 3- shall have three nodes under “CONSTRUCTION”: “PRE- CONSTRUCTION”; “CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS”; and “POST CONSTRUCTION/CLOSEOUT”. In addition, shall have at least two nodes under Design: Design Unit design and review. For all projects under “PRE-CONSTRUCTION” a fourth level of the WBS shall consist of at least the following four sub nodes: “GENERAL SUBMITTALS”, “SHOP DRAWINGS”, “PROCUREMENT/FABRICATION/DELIVERY”, and “UTILITY COORDINATION”. Under the “CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS” node, the grouping of activities may vary depending on the scope and nature of the project work. The Design-Builder shall coordinate with the NYSDOT Project Manager to determine the best way to represent (group activities) the project deliverables (i.e. Bridge, Roundabout, Highway segment, Interchange, Intersection, etc). The NYSDOT Project Manager may require sub nodes for AREA (geographic area within the project limits), STAGE, or for a bridge project SUBSTRUCTURE, SUPERSTRUCTURE, and DECK. Generally Level 4 would be by geographic area within the project limits, Level 5 would be by highway feature (bridge, highway segment, intersection), Level 6 the highway features should be broken into their components; such as, a bridge into components such as Substructure, Superstructure, and Deck, or a highway segment into components such as pavement, drainage, earthwork, lighting, traffic signals, etc.

An example Work Breakdown Structure is shown below in Figure 1

iv) Activity ID - Include a unique identification number for each activity. Activity ID numbers shall not be changed, or reassigned. Task type Activity IDs shall be prefixed by a “C”. Milestone type activities shall be prefixed by an “M”. v) Activity Name - Clearly and uniquely define each activity name with a description of the work that is readily identifiable to inspection staff and the progress of each activity can be measured. Each Activity shall have a narrative description consisting at a minimum of a verb or work function (i.e. form, pour, excavate, etc), an object (i.e. slab, footing, wall, etc), and a location (i.e. STA, bridge or retaining wall number, street, etc). The work related to each Activity shall be limited to one Area of the Contract, one Stage of the Contract, one WZTC Phase of the Contract, and one Responsible Party of the Contract. The Activity Name shall not be changed for the duration of the contract without approval of the NYSDOT Project Manager. vi) Milestone Type Activities - Include activities for all Contract milestones that define significant contractual events such as Contract Award, Notice to Proceed, Design- Builder Start Work, Substantial Completion Date, Project Completion Date, and coordination points with outside entities such as utilities, State agencies, Authorities, municipalities, Time-Related Contract Provisions, etc. All milestone activities in the Schedule shall be assigned the standard Global calendar named ‘NYSDOT Milestone/Curing 365 Day / 8 hour”, this calendar should also be assigned to any activities for concrete curing. · The Contract Award milestone shall have a primary constraint of “Finish On” and the date of Contract signature by the State Comptroller, · The Project Completion milestone shall have a primary constraint of “Finish on or before” and the Project Completion Date. · The Design-Builder Start Work” Start milestone activity, that will eventually reflect the actual date the Design-Builder started Work authorized under the contract.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 17 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

All maintenance type work activities, such as maintaining temporary concrete barrier or rodent control, such be shown on the schedule with Start and Finish milestone type activities not task dependent activities. vii) Activity Durations – Define the Original Duration of each activity in units of whole work days, except for activities of less than one day duration which should be shown in units of tenths of a day. Except submittal/procurement activities, durations shall not exceed 15 work days unless approved by the Department’s Project Manager. Durations for Department submittal reviews shall meet the requirements set forth in the Contract documents. If requested by the Department’s Project Manager, the Design-Builder shall justify the reasonableness of planned activity time durations. Task Dependent activities shall not have zero durations. viii) Production Rates – For each non-administrative work activity in the schedule the Design-Builder shall enter the quantity of the predominate item of the work activity into the field labeled “PR Quantity”, the Unit of Measure for that item in the field labeled “PR Unit”, the anticipated production rate of the equipment and labor (crew) resources for that work activity in the field labeled “Production Rate / Day”, and the associated duration for that work activity in the field labeled “PR Duration”. These are all Activity level UDF fields, and can be found in the activity Layout named Contractor Production Rates. If requested by the Department’s Project Manager, the Design-Builder shall furnish other information needed to justify the reasonableness of activity durations. ix) Activity Relationships - Clearly assign predecessors and successors relationships to each activity and assign appropriate logic ties between activities (Finish to Start, Start to Start, Finish to Finish, etc.). Do not have any open ended activities, with the exception of the first activity and last activity in the schedule. An activity may only appear once as a predecessor or successor to another specific activity, but may be assigned as a predecessor or successor to many different activities. Do not include inappropriate logic ties with Milestone activities (For a finish milestone activity: a predecessor shall only be assigned a Finish to Finish logic tie, a successor shall only be assigned a Finish to Start or Finish to Finish logic tie. For a start milestone: a predecessor shall only be assigned a Finish to Start or Start to Start logic tie, a successor shall only be assigned with a Start to Start logic tie). Lag time may not exceed 10 days. The Design-Builder shall not use negative Lag times. x) The Design-Builder shall assign the “Contract Award Date” activity as a predecessor to all Review and Approval type activities to be performed by Department staff. xi) Activity Constraint Dates – The Design-Builder shall not have any constrained activities, with the exception of contractual dates, unless the Department’s Project Manager accepts such constraints in writing. Milestone activities shall be included for the Contract Award which shall have a primary constraint of “Finish On” and the date of Contract signature by the State Comptroller, and for the anticipated Project Completion Date which shall have a primary constraint of “Finish on or before” and the Project Completion Date indicated in the Contract documents. Only contractual/owner-designated constraints are allowed unless specifically authorized by this Special Provision or the Department’s Project Manager. If used, only Constraints of type, “Finish on or Before”, ‘Start on or After”, or when deemed appropriate by the Engineer “As-Late-As-Possible” are acceptable.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 18 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

xii) Activity Dates – With the exception of contract Milestone dates, “Actual Start” and “Actual Finish” dates and “Planned Start” and “Planned Finish” dates, activity dates shall be calculated by the project scheduler tool within the Primavera software. No Actual Start or Actual Finish dates shall be entered in the Baseline Progress Schedule, with the exception of activities that were completed prior to the Contract Award. xiii) Calendars - Use clearly defined calendars that account for expected seasonal weather conditions (including winter shutdown periods) and environmental permit requirements, for the planning and scheduling of activities. Do not incorporate an activity with a description of “Winter Shutdown” that requires constraints. Provide the work days per week, holidays, the number of shifts per day, and the number of hours per shift by using the Calendar feature called “Time Periods” in the P6 software. Incorporate any seasonal restrictions to the work within calendars assigned to activities. · Global calendars used in the Progress Schedule shall be those established by the Department. There are only two Global Calendars developed and maintained by the Department for use by Design-Builder’s, they are the following: • NYSDOT Milestone/Curing 365 Day / 8 hour • State Business Days, 5 Day Work Week w/State Holidays, Field Changes desired for these calendars shall be forwarded to [email protected], and if appropriate these changes will be performed by the Office of Construction system admin staff. This will be accomplished by making a copy of the existing Global calendar; the new calendar will then be renamed and modified as necessary. · Calendars related to specific resources (i.e., a specific person or piece of equipment) shall be established as Resource Calendars, with the Calendar name clearly identifying the resource. · All other calendars developed by a Design-Builder shall be established as Project Calendars, with the calendar name including the contract D# and describing the function (i.e., D260000 - Asphalt Calendar, D260000 - Concrete Calendar, D260000 - Landscape Calendar, D260000 - Painting Calendar, D260000 – Design-Builder’s 5 Day/8 Hour Workweek). All work activities of the Design- Builder shall be assigned to Project Calendars. · Activities for shop drawing reviews and other approvals by Department personnel shall be assigned the Department’s standard Global – “State Business Days, 5 Day Work Week w/State Holidays, Field” Calendar that reflects all holidays observed by the State. · The Baseline Progress Schedule can not include a calendar that reflects any workers working more than 8 hours in any one calendar day or more than 5 days in any one week. (§102-7 LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT) Following the Contract award the Design-Builder can add additional calendars in their next Monthly Progress Schedule submission based on an approved overtime dispensation. xiv) Clearly define significant interaction points between the Design-Builder, the Department, and other entities including but not limited to: Federal, State and local

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 19 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

agencies/authorities; and utilities. All activities of the Department, utility companies, adjacent contracts, and other entities that affect progress and influence any contract required dates including durations shall be shown in the Schedule. This includes dates related to all Permits or Agreements. The Schedule shall give special consideration to sensitive areas such as road closures and parklands and shall indicate any time frames when work is restricted in these sensitive areas as outlined in the permits issued by the regulatory agencies, and provided in the Contract documents. xv) Activity Resources – The Design-Builder will generally not be required to assign labor or material resources in the Resource Dictionary, or assign them to Schedule activities. The Design-Builder will not be required to assign costs to resource assignments in the Schedule. The Design-Builder is required to enter the major equipment resources to the appropriate activities in the Schedule, these shall include pile drivers, large cranes, asphalt paving equipment, and concrete finishing machines. It shall be the Design-Builder’s responsibility to assure the activity logic in the Schedule properly reflects their resource limitations. If the Design-Builder anticipates multiple crews for the same Schedule activity, these resources shall be documented in the Schedule narrative. As an activity can have only one responsible party, no activity shall involve multiple crews comprised of the Design-Builder and a subcontractor, or multiple subcontractors. xvi) Activity Codes – The Design-Builder shall include a well-defined activity coding structure that allows activities to be sorted and filtered. Activity Codes shall be developed and assigned as needed by the Project Manager to facilitate the use and analysis of the Schedule. ● No Global Activity Codes shall be incorporated in any Progress Schedule submission to the Department’s Project Manager except those established by the Department. ● The Design-Builder shall assign the appropriate activity code values to each activity in the Progress Schedule for the following Global Activity Codes that are in the Department’s enterprise database: 1) RESPONSIBLE PARTY (DOT GLOBAL) 2) STAGE (DOT GLOBAL) 3) AREA (DOT GLOBAL) 4) TYPE OF WORK (DOT GLOBAL) 6) CHANGED (ADDED/DELETED) WORK (DOT GLOBAL) 7) TIME Related Clauses (DOT GLOBAL) 8) DELAY (DOT GLOBAL) 9) DBE (DOT GLOBAL) ● Additional Activity Codes developed for specific projects shall be established as Project Activity Codes. As a minimum this shall include the following: 1) SUBCONTRACTOR

xvii) Activity Code Values – Each Activity Code shall be broken down into various Activity Code Values that are then assigned to activities. For example, the Activity Code “Stage” shall include a hierarchal arrangement of Activity Code Values as shown below in Figure 2: FIGURE 2

xviii) Activity Code Assignments - For each activity, within the activity details the Design-Builder shall assign Activity Code values to identify the “Responsible Party” (i.e. – Design-Builder, NYSDOT, Utility Co, Municipality) for the work to be performed (one and only one responsible party shall be assigned to each activity), the “Stage” of the contract for the work that will be performed, the “Area” where the work is to be performed, the “WZTC Phase”, and the Type of Work (i.e. - Procurement, Paving, Embankment, Excavation, Electrical, Signing, etc). For activities included in work governed by time-related contract provisions, the appropriate “Time Related” activity code shall be utilized. For activities included in work added and/or changed within an Order-On-Contract, the appropriate “Added/Changed Work” code shall be utilized. For all work activities performed by the Design-Builder or subcontractors/fabricators/suppliers, “Contactor” shall be designated as the Responsible Party. If the Design-Builder wants a separate activity code to enable sorting the activities of subcontractors, fabricators, or suppliers a separate “Subcontractor” code shall be utilized. xix) Interim Milestone Completion Dates with Liquidated Damages and Special Time-Related Contract Provisions (i.e. – Incentive/Disincentive provisions, Lane Rental) – Each time-related contract provision in the Contract shall be represented in the Progress Schedule by having a start and finish milestone, with appropriate predecessors and successors assigned to all Schedule activities considered part of that time-related contract provision work including the start and finish milestone activities. The Start milestone for the time-related Contract work shall have predecessors and/or date constraints assigned that include those defined in the Contract documents, and the Finish milestone for the time-related Contract work shall have successors and/or date constraints assigned that include those defined in the Contract documents. All Schedule activities associated with each specific time-

iv) If the schedule is accepted by the Department’s Project Manager without any comments, the Design-Builder shall copy the schedule and rename it for submission as the Final Baseline Progress Schedule. v) In no way does the Baseline Progress Schedule modify the Contract documents. vi) The Design-Builder shall assign appropriate Activity Codes and provide custom Layouts, Filters, and/or report formats necessary to allow the Project Manager to generate a report from the each Progress Schedule submission of all submittals required under the Contract (i.e., shop drawings, required permits, erection/demolition plans, etc). The list shall show scheduled submission date, review date, and acceptance date for each submittal and identify the earliest activity affected by each of these submittals. This list shall be generated from each Progress Schedule submission until all such activities are completed. 3.3.4.3 Final Baseline Progress Schedule a) If the Baseline Progress Schedule is returned to the Design-Builder with comments, the Design-Builder shall make a copy of the schedule and rename it as the Final Baseline Progress Schedule with comments addressed and revisions made as necessary. The Design-Builder shall complete the Final Baseline Progress Schedule and obtain acceptance of the Department’s Project Manager within the timeframe required in column 3 of Table 2, or within one week of the Design-Builder’s receipt of the final comments by the Department’s Project Manager, whichever is sooner. b) The Department’s Project Manager will review the schedule and return it, accepted or with comments, within 5 Work days following the date of receipt of the Design-Builder’s submission. c) The Final Baseline Progress Schedule must be “accepted” or “accepted as noted” by the Department’s Project Manager prior to the Department evaluating any Design- Builder disputes associated with time impacts. This does not preclude the Design- Builder from submitting a dispute while the schedule is being reviewed for acceptance. 3.3.4.4 Monthly Progress Schedule Submissions. a) First Monthly Progress Schedule Submission – Within three Work Days following acceptance of the Final Baseline Progress Schedule or the closing date for the first month’s contract payment period whichever is later, the Design-Builder shall perform a Progress Schedule Update to reflect the status of all activities where work was performed in the time period between the start of work and acceptance of the Final Baseline Progress Schedule. This shall include actual dates entered in the Actual Start and Actual Finish columns, and Remaining Duration for activities where work has commenced but has not been completed, in addition the Design-Builder shall incorporate any Progress Schedule Revisions that reflect any changes in how future work activities are to be completed. b) Subsequent Monthly Progress Schedule Submissions - On a monthly basis, the Design- Builder shall submit a copy of the current Progress Schedule that includes all Progress Schedule Revisions and Progress Schedule Updates to reflect the actual and planned prosecution and progress of the contract work. Progress Schedule Updates shall reflect the status of activities that have commenced or have been completed, including the following items: (a) actual dates in activity Actual Start and Actual Finish columns as appropriate; (b) actual Remaining Duration for activities commenced and not complete; VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 24 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

and (c) actual activity Suspend or Resume dates for activities commenced and not complete. Progress Schedule Revisions reflect modifications made to activities in the current project baseline schedule in any of the following items: (a) activity Original Duration; (b) changes in logic connections between activities; (c) changes in Constraints; (d) changes to Activity Descriptions; (e) activity additions or deletions; (f) changes in Activity Code assignments; (g) changes in Calendar assignments, (h) Productivity Rates. All "Out of Sequence" activities noted in the scheduling log shall be corrected to reflect the current construction operations. When preparing a formal submission of the Progress Schedule, the Design-Builder shall make a copy of the current Progress Schedule and name it according to the file naming convention provided by the Department in Table 1. c) Additional Schedule Requirements - In addition to the schedule requirements detailed for the submission of the Baseline Progress Schedule, the following shall be provided by the Design-Builder: i) Data Date - the “Data Date” shall be the date the Project Scheduler last edits the schedule prior to submission to the Department’s Project Manager (generally the last day of the month). The Project Scheduler shall enter the Data Date through the Schedule (F9) tool. ii) Activity Status Tab - a. Durations – the Original Duration shall not be changed without prior written justification by the Design-Builder, and written approval by the Department’s Project Manager. The Design-Builder shall edit the Remaining Duration to reflect progress made on work activities, and shall not use Duration %. If a proposed change to Original Duration is due to additional or changed work to the contract the Design-Builder shall instead add an activity to reflect this additional work, and assign the appropriate Activity Code. The Design- Builder shall not use zero durations for Task Dependent activities. b. Started and Finished dates – for each activity where work was begun during the month, the Design-Builder shall check the box adjacent to Started and enter the date the work began. For each activity where work was completed during the month, the Design-Builder shall check the box adjacent to Finished and enter the date the work was completed. c. Suspended work – The first time that work has been suspended on a schedule activity, the Design-Builder shall enter the Suspend and Resume fields within the Project Details under the Status tab. For any subsequent suspensions of work to that activity the Design-Builder shall break that activity into two or more activities to accurately reflect the suspension and resumption of work dates in the field, and to more accurately reflect the relationship to other work activities. iii) Calendars – To change a Project calendar for activities scheduled in the future, the Design-Builder shall copy the calendar and use a revised name that includes a reference to which Monthly Update the change was incorporated (i.e. - D260000 - Concrete Calendar should be revised to D260000 – 2 - Concrete Calendar to reflect the 2nd Monthly Update when the change was made to the calendar). The reason for the change in the calendar shall be documented in the Narrative.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 25 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

iv) Notebook Tab – a. Delays - For any activities on the critical path that are delayed during this monthly reporting period, the Design-Builder shall enter the dates the activity was delayed and the reason for such delay in the Notebook tab of that activity. b. Activity Changes – For any changes to activity logic, calendar assignments, suspended work, added or revised lag periods or constraints the Design- Builder shall document the change and reason in a Notebook Topic for that activity by assigning the appropriate “Progress Submission # Revision” and describing the changes. v) Production Rates – For any activities where the work to be performed is similar in nature to work already performed on the same Project and that the Production Rate for the work to be performed is different than the actual Production Rate for work already performed, the Department’s Project Manager may require the Design- Builder to adjust the Duration for the work to be performed to reflect the more appropriate Production Rate. vi) Deleted work – If work has been deleted the corresponding work activities in the schedule shall be deleted. The Design-Builder shall not just zero the activity duration since the calendar assigned to the zero duration activity shall still affect the logic of future work activities. d) Monthly Progress Schedule Narrative - For each Monthly Progress Schedule submission, the Design-Builder shall submit a narrative in Microsoft Word, or Adobe Acrobat format that includes, but is not limited to the topics from the Baseline Narrative and the additional topics below: i) Project Progress. Discuss the progress that was made during the current reporting period, and document any Total Float gained or recovered during the period. For major work items describe the differences between the actual work performed and the work planned for the period as represented in the preceding Progress Schedule submission, including explanations for the deviations. ii) Suspended Work. For all suspended work activities that could otherwise logically be progressed, identify the responsible party prohibiting the progression of the work, as well as the detailed reasons why. iii) Project Delays. Discuss any delays experienced during the current reporting period. Quantify any relative change in Total Float for the project since the last Progress Schedule submission. For each activity on the critical path (include Activity ID’s and Activity Descriptions) where work was delayed during the reporting period, provide the following detailed information including: • the extent in days (negative float) of the delay, and events that caused the delay. • the party(s) responsible for the delay event(s). • the other activities in the construction schedule affected by the events. • the reasonable steps needed to minimize the impact of the delay, and which party needs to take the action(s).

Graphical representations shall be shown at a suitable scale to be legible and readable. xiv) The following appendix in Adobe Acrobat PDF file format, formatted to fit standard ANSI A (Letter) size paper (8.5 inch x 12 inch) (215 mm x 279 mm) paper, printed with portrait orientation, shall be included with the narrative as a separate file. ● APPENDIX 3 – A complete Scheduling/Leveling Report file generated by the Department’s Primavera scheduling software application which includes the Schedule Settings, Statistics, Errors, Warnings, Scheduling/Leveling Results, Exceptions, Activities with unsatisfied constraints, Activities with unsatisfied relationships, and Activities with external dates. The statistics shall include, # of Activities, # of Activities Not Started, # of Activities In Progress, # of Activities Completed, # of Activity Relationships, and # of Activities with Constraints. Total number of activities on the critical path, percent complete, activities without predecessors, activities without successors, and activities out of sequence.

e) For any contract time extension requests the Design-Builder shall include: a Time Impact Analysis (TIA) for any changes to the schedule for future work for such issues as Added Work, VECP, or Changed Conditions; and a Delay Analysis that documents all delays from the Contract Award to the current date that is based on critical path delays that occurred when comparing subsequent Monthly Progress Schedule submissions and the supporting delay documentation in the Monthly Schedule Narratives. f) Schedule Submission - The Design-Builder shall submit the Monthly Progress Schedule to the Department’s Project Manager at the end of each month. The schedule submission to the Department’s Project Manager shall be made within three (3) Work Days of the Data Date (last day of the month), whether or not the Department’s Project Manager has accepted the previous Monthly Progress Schedule submission. Schedule submittals will only be considered complete when all documents and data have been provided. Immediately prior to submitting the schedule the Project Scheduler shall “Schedule” the project, when scheduling the project the Scheduling Options shown in Figure 3 shall be used unless approval to vary from these settings is given by the Department’s Project Manager. The Project Scheduler shall use the same Scheduling Options for all Progress Schedule submittals for the duration of the contract, unless directed otherwise VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 28 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

by the Department’s Project Manager.

FIGURE 3

g) Schedule Submission Method - The Design-Builder shall submit the schedule to the Department’s Project Manager electronically for review and acceptance. The filename shall conform to the requirements of Table 1. The Project Scheduler can change the Project ID and Name through the WBS at the top node, as they do not have privileges to edit data through the Project Details tab. The Design-Builder’s submission shall be documented by an E-mail to the Department’s Project Manager, with a copy to [email protected] and all appropriate project participants, that

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 29 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

the project schedule on the network is ready for review. The Design-Builder’s E-mail to the Department’s Project Manager shall also consist of the following: i) The subject of the E-mail shall include the Region #, contract D number, the Project Name, the Progress Schedule’s ProjectID, and Design-Builder company name. (i.e. – Region 8, D260000, Rehabilitation of Main Street viaduct, D260000-1UD2, ABC Contractors) ii) The E-mail message shall include the name of the Department’s Project Manager, the current anticipated Finish date of the last activity in the Project Schedule, a statement as to how that date compares to the current Project Completion Date, and the name of the Department’s Area Construction Supervisor (May be CQAE). iii) Electronic files of all Narrative Reports and required attachments associated with the schedule shall be submitted by the Design-Builder in Adobe Acrobat format.

3.3.4.5 As-Built Progress Schedule The Design-Builder shall submit the As-Built Progress Schedule with Actual Start and Actual Finish dates for all activities, within ten (10) Work Days following final acceptance of work by the Department.

3.3.5 Progress Schedule Review and Analysis 3.3.5.1 Immediate Rejection of Progress Schedule Submissions. The following deficiencies in a Design-Builder’s Progress Schedule submission shall be grounds for the immediate rejection by the Department’s Project Manager, without further review, analysis and/or comments. a) Failure of the Project Scheduler to “schedule” the Project, as of the Data Date. b) Failure to attach a copy of the complete Scheduling/Leveling Report (SCHEDLOG.TXT file generated by Primavera software application). c) Any activities without predecessors, or activities without successors, appearing in the Scheduling/Leveling Report with the exception of the first and last activity in the schedule. d) Any activity constraints appearing in the Scheduling/Leveling Report that have not been approved in writing by the EIC, or that are not specifically allowed by this Special Provision. e) Any Activities with Actual Dates > Data Date appearing in the Scheduling/Leveling Report. f) Any Milestone Activities with invalid relationships appearing in the Scheduling/Leveling Report. g) Failure to have a clearly defined Critical Path from the Data Date to the last activity in the schedule, using the Longest Path method. This would reflect logic errors in the project schedule. h) Failure to attach the schedule Narrative and required appendices.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 30 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

i) Failure to correct any “Out-Of-Sequence” activities that affect the critical path. If any of these deficiencies are found, the Design-Builder’s submission shall be considered deficient, and the Department’s Project Manager will notify the Design-Builder immediately by return E-mail of the rejection of the schedule submittal.

3.3.5.2 Schedule Analysis Method. Events, actions, and progress that cause delays or gains to the Progress Schedule will be analyzed solely by the "Contemporaneous Period Analysis" method.

3.3.5.3 Project Progress Meetings One topic of the regular weekly progress meetings held by the Project Manager and attended by the Design-Builder shall be a review of the Weekly Status Report generated from the Progress Schedule. The Design-Builder shall be represented by their design, construction and Project Scheduler personnel. The Project Scheduler shall bring a copy of the printed plot of the current Weekly Status Report to the progress meeting.

a) The review of the Status Report serves as the forum to discuss project progress and delays, suggested remedies, necessary Progress Schedule revisions, coordination requirements, change orders, potential Design-Builder time extension requests, and other relevant issues. If contract work is falling behind the Progress Schedule, the responsible party (i.e.- Design-Builder or Department) shall be ready to discuss what measures it will take in the next thirty (30) days to put the work back on schedule so as to meet the Project Completion Date specified in the Contract.

b) Items of discussion will include, but are not limited to: project progress; schedule progress; near term and long-term schedule issues, including RFIs, Shop Drawing submittals, permit work, utility relocations, mitigation work; project issues and risks; proposed solutions; and any relevant technical issues that are schedule related.

c) At the meeting the Project Scheduler shall compile an action item list that describes who is responsible for existing or pending issues and the date by which the issue needs to be resolved to avoid delays. The Design-Builder shall forward a copy of the action item list to the Project Manager within 2 business days following the meeting.

3.3.5.4 Department Review and Acceptance of Progress Schedules The Department’s Project Manager will review the Monthly Progress Schedule submissions and will prepare a written response (Progress Schedule Review Report) to the Design-Builder’s submission within five (5) Work Days following receipt of the Design-Builder’s complete schedule submission. The Department’s Project Manager will either “accept” the schedule, “accept as noted”, or “reject” the schedule for re-submittal by the Design-Builder.

If the Progress Schedule submission is not in compliance with contract requirements, the Department’s Project Manager may reject the submittal and shall forward any comments and requests for schedule revisions to the Design-Builder. The Design-Builder shall address all comments in writing and/or make the requested revisions, and resubmit the revised schedule within three (3) Work days of the Department Project Manager’s reply. If the Department’s Project Manager determines the revised submission still does not meet the contract requirements, any further revisions required thereafter shall also be submitted for acceptance VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 31 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

within (3) Work days of the request for revisions by the Department’s Project Manager.

For schedules that are “accepted as noted” the Department’s Project Manager shall forward any comments, or requests for revisions, to the Design-Builder. The Design-Builder shall address all comments in writing and/or make the requested revisions as part of the next scheduled Progress Schedule submission.

The Design-Builder shall make adjustments to the Progress Schedule in accordance with the comments from the Department’s Project Manager and resubmit copies for review consistent with the requirements of this section.

The Department’s Project Manager, by accepting the Progress Schedule, does not agree that the Progress Schedule is reasonable or that by following the Progress Schedule the Design- Builder can complete the Work in a timely manner. If, after a Progress Schedule has been accepted by the Department’s Project Manager, either the Design-Builder or the Department’s Project Manager discover that any aspect of the Schedule is in error, or something significant has been omitted, the Design-Builder shall correct the Progress Schedule in the next Progress Schedule submission and describe this revision in the Narrative report.

Acceptance of Progress Schedules by the Department’s Project Manager shall not be construed to imply approval of any particular construction methods or sequence of construction or to relieve the Design-Builder from its responsibility to provide sufficient materials, equipment and labor to guarantee the completion of the Contract in accordance with the Contract requirement.

Acceptance of the Progress Schedule by the Project Manager does not attest to the validity of assumptions, activities, relationships, sequences, resource allocations, or any other aspect of the progress schedule. Within the contractual constraints, the Design-Builder is solely responsible for the planning and execution of the work.

Acceptance of the Progress Schedule by the Department’s Project Manager shall not be construed to modify or amend the Contract Agreement or the date of Project Completion therein. Completion dates can only be modified or amended by standard contractual means, through an official HC-250b Request For Extension of Completion Date.

If any resources are included in the Progress Schedule, it is not intended that the Department’s Project Manager, by accepting the schedule should use the Design-Builder’s resource data for anything other than determining the reasonableness of achieving the Design-Builder’s production rates. Resources included with the accepted CPM schedule shall not be misconstrued as a cost benchmark for the performance of planned or actual work.

Once the Progress Schedule has been accepted, the Design-Builder shall not deviate from it without first notifying the Department’s Project Manager in writing.

Upon receipt from the Design-Builder of the corrected schedule, a new review period by the Department’s Project Manager of five (5) Work days will begin.

3.3.6 Changes to Progress Schedule due to Added/Deleted/Changed Work: 3.3.6.1 Changes to the Contract

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 32 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

In the event a notice of a change to the Contract is received, the appropriate changes to the progress schedule shall be made, as necessary, to incorporate the anticipated added/deleted/changed work and the Design-Builder shall notify the Department’s Project Manager in writing within 10 (ten) calendar days if there is any effect of such change to the schedule. The reasons for these revisions must be succinct, comprehensive, and factual to merit consideration. Change to the contract includes, but is not limited to, Extra Work, Agreed Prices, Change Orders, Suspensions of Work Directed by the Department’s Project Manager, Changed Condition, and Value Engineering Change Proposals. Added, deleted and/or extra work associated with Change Orders shall be reflected in the next Monthly Progress Schedule Submission in anticipation of and prior to the date in which the work physically takes place without regard to the dates when the actual Change Order was approved. The effect of the change to the Contract on the projects Critical Path shall be stated. Extra work or additional work that does not affect the controlling operation on the critical path will not be considered as the basis for a time extension. All schedule activities effected by added, deleted or changed work that is included in a signed Change Order, Field Change Order, or Authorization of Extra Work (with the exception of minor quantity changes that do not impact contract milestones), or work activities performed by the Design-Builder at risk in anticipation of such Department approval, shall be assigned the appropriate Activity Code (Added/Changed Work) and Code Value (sequentially numbered) to denote which “Changed Contract Work” order number correlates to those activities of work.

3.3.6.2 Time Impact Analysis For each request of an adjustment of Contract time due to an anticipated change to future work in the Progress Schedule, when the Design-Builder or Department’s Project Manager consider that an anticipated or approved change to the Contract may impact the critical path and Contract progress by more than a calendar month, the Design-Builder shall submit a Time Impact Analysis (TIA). The TIA shall be submitted as part of any Order on Contract (Change Order) and/or VECP if the critical path changes by more than a calendar month.

The TIA shall be based on a revised Progress Schedule and shall be submitted as an electronic file (using Microsoft Word for the narrative) containing:

a) The TIA shall illustrate the impacts of each change or delay on the current scheduled completion date or internal milestone, as appropriate. b) The analysis shall use the accepted Monthly Progress Schedule that has a data date closest to and prior to the event as the “Current Baseline”, this shall then be compared against the “What-if Project Plan Baseline” for the purpose of the TIA. c) If the Department’s Project Manager determines that the accepted schedule used does not appropriately represent the conditions prior to the event, the accepted schedule shall be updated to the day before the event being analyzed. d) The TIA shall include an impacted schedule (“What-if Project Plan Baseline”) developed from incorporating the actual or anticipated event into the accepted schedule by adding or deleting activities, or by changing durations or logic of existing activities. e) If the impact schedule shows that incorporating the event negatively modifies the critical path and scheduled completion date of the accepted schedule, and the Project Manager accepts the impacted schedule, the difference between scheduled VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 33 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

completion dates of the two schedules shall be equal to the proposed adjustment of contract time. f) The Department’s Project Manager may construct and utilize an appropriate project schedule or use another recognized method to determine adjustments in contract time until the Design-Builder provides the TIA. g) The Design-Builder shall submit a TIA within fifteen (15) Work Days of receiving a written request for a TIA from the Department’s Project Manager. h) The Design-Builder shall allow the Project Manager ten (10) Work Days after receipt to accept or reject the submitted TIA. All accepted TIA schedule changes shall be included in the next Monthly Progress Schedule submission. i) If a TIA submitted by the Design-Builder is rejected by the Department’s Project Manager, the Design-Builder shall meet with the Project Manager to discuss and resolve issues related to the TIA. If agreement is not reached, the Design-Builder will give notice in conformance with §104-06, Notices and Recordkeeping, and submit in accordance within the provisions in §105-14, Required Content of Dispute Submission. j) The Design-Builder shall only show actual as-built work, not unapproved changes related to the TIA, in subsequent Monthly Progress Schedule submissions. If agreement is reached at a later date, approved TIA schedule changes shall be included in the next Monthly Progress Schedule submission. k) Request for a contract time extension will not be processed until the receipt and approval of a Time Impact Analysis. 3.3.7 Failure to Submit Progress Schedules and/or Recovery Schedules

If the Design-Builder fails to comply with the provisions of this Special Provision, the Department’s Project Manager may suspend payment for any Contract Work.

1) If the Design-Builder’s Progress Schedule submission is rejected due to any deficiency noted in paragraph 5.3.5.1(a) through (i), it shall be considered an incomplete submission and therefore substantially deficient. 2) If the Design-Builder’s revised Progress Schedule submission does not address the written comments provided by the Department’s Project Manager, and does not include a written explanation with a reasonable rational for not addressing those comments, the submission shall be considered deficient. 3.3.8 Recovery Schedule

1) If the latest completion time for any work on the current Progress Schedule results in an activity being delayed ten percent or more of the time beyond the required Contract duration or any specified Milestone duration, as adjusted if appropriate, the Project Manager may require the Design-Builder to submit a Recovery Schedule and written description of the plan to recover all lost time and maintain the required Completion Date or specified Interim Milestone Date(s). 2) With the Recovery Schedule the Design-Builder shall include revised calendars, activity Production Rates, and/or revised activity logic along with a narrative that identifies how

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 34 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

time will be recovered. The submission may be supplemented with a request for a Contract Time Extension. The Design-Builder shall provide a reasonable plan for accomplishing the work of the contract within the current completion date, or to the requested contract extension date. The Department’s Project Manager will use the Recovery Schedule to evaluate time extensions, with or without charges. 3.3.9 Float

During the course of contract execution, Total Float generated due to the efficiencies of either party (State or Design-Builder) will be considered project Float that is not for the sole use of the party generating the float; rather it is a shared commodity to be reasonably used by either party. Any party assigned activity responsibility within the schedule has the full use of the project Float until it is depleted.

3.3.10 Progress Schedule Updates and Weekly Status Reports: 1) The Design-Builder shall perform a Progress Schedule Update on a minimum of a weekly basis, and every fourth schedule update period shall be consistent with a monthly contract payment period. Weekly updates showing work completed shall commence within 3 weeks of Notice to Proceed. Weekly updates shall be provided the day before progress meetings. Weekly updates will be required even if the Base Line is not accepted. 2) The Design-Builder shall generate a Weekly Status Report after performing the Progress Schedule Update and Scheduling the project with a Data Date of the day the schedule was updated, and submit it to the Project Manager within one (1) Work Day of the Data Date for that update period. The Weekly Status Report shall be generated using the activity layout named Weekly Status Report. The Gantt Chart shall clearly indicate the project critical (longest) path. Graphical representations shall be shown at a suitable scale to be legible and readable. 3) During any time periods within the contract that special time-related contract provisions are in effect, including Incentive/Disincentive Periods, the Project Manager may require more frequent Progress Schedule Updates and/or Progress Schedule Status Reports. 3.4 PROGRESS CHECK POINTS AND PAYMENT Specified schedule submittals and schedule updates shall be considered Progress Check Points.

The cost of preparing and updating the CPM schedule and meeting all other requirements of this Special Provision shall be included the Project costs.

SP-4. MATERIALS APPROVAL PROCEDURES FOR DESIGN-BUILD PROJECTS

All Materials used in the Design-Build work shall meet the quality requirements described in the Contract Documents. The use of Standard Specifications and Approved List (AL) materials are expected for commonly available products for incorporation into the Work. Additionally, existing NYSDOT Special Specifications that include material requirements may also be used in the

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 35 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

Work.

If the Design-Builder deviates from Contract Documents, Standard Specifications, or existing Special Specifications, the Design-Builder shall develop Design Plans, Project Specifications and Work Plans that define materials and procedures to complete the Work. The Design- Builder shall progress acceptance of materials and sources, proving durability through tests and evaluations as appropriate, prior to use in the Work. The Design-Builder shall document the sources of supply (NOTE: Must be in compliance with all “Buy America” regulations) and kinds of materials that will be used in the work as soon as they are known.

As part of the Design requirements of Part 3, Section 5, the Department will review and accept materials proposed for use as follows:

Products that are not presently on the AL but claim to meet specification requirements shall be evaluated by the Department prior to use. The Department will perform the necessary testing according to the existing material requirements for the products as defined in Section 700 of the NYSDOT Standard Specifications or any Special Specification requirements. A request for inclusion on the AL shall be made by the manufacturer / supplier. The required submittal information for AL consideration can be found at: https://www.dot.ny.gov/divisions/engineering/technical-services/materials-bureau/approved-list- submission

When products are proposed for which NYSDOT does not have Standard or Special Specifications, or where proven materials may be used in non-traditional applications, materials evaluations will be progressed based on review of technical details, performance histories, and/or physical testing. The Design-Builder will provide this information to prove the expected performance and durability of these unique materials before they can be used in the Work. Submissions shall include:

Performance History

· Test Results (including test methods for durability, strength, appearance, etc)

· Previous Uses (describing who, where, when, documented performance)

The evaluation of materials will depend on the uniqueness of the proposed materials, critical nature of the application, and detailed information provided. Evaluations will consist of the following:

· Materials deemed less critical will likely be accepted based on literature review only. Use of these materials can begin at any time.

· Materials deemed more critical will require both literature review and physical testing by the Department. Physical testing will commence only after literature review determines the material has a likely chance of meeting all performance criteria defined in the Design-Builder’s Special Specifications. Conditional acceptance will be made upon completion of the literature review that will allow use of these materials prior to completion of physical testing. However, failure of materials during physical testing will result in a NCR for any materials incorporated into the Work. Rectification of the generated NCR shall be at the sole judgement of the Department.

The Design-Builder shall consider the uniqueness of the proposed materials, critical nature of the application, and detail of information provided for an evaluation. Additionally, The Design- Builder shall consider the duration of the evaluation required to reasonably progress all sampling, transportation, preparation, testing, and evaluation of results as defined in the material requirements for an item and may NOT use any part of the evaluation process as a basis for claim and/or delay. The Department will, when possible, perform AASHTO, AREMA and/or ASTM tests of the materials for acceptance purposes. When the Department does not have the capabilities to evaluate materials, testing labs may be hired for testing as needed at the Design-Builder’s expense.

Use of any materials prior to acceptance by the Department shall be at the Design-Builder’s risk. After acceptance, materials shall conform to specification requirements and subject to all QC/QA actions and Department verification.

Once in Construction, the Design-Builder is responsible for QC of all materials while the Department is responsible to verify the quality of all materials through the timely submission of Certified Test Reports. The Department will progress sampling and testing for verification of materials according to the established Quality Control Plan developed for the project.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 58 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

RFP Part 5 – Special Provision 13

Requirements for Bridges with Link Slabs

13.1 GENERAL For the purposes of this document, the term ‘Link Slab’ shall be as defined in the NYSDOT Bridge Manual.

When link slabs are installed on an existing bridge, a contiguous segment is formed which results in changes to the structure’s global behavior. A structural analysis is required to quantify the changes in the horizontal forces acting on existing substructures and foundations. The results of this analysis, along with any other sources of additional load, shall be used to determine if any of the existing substructures, including their foundations, need to be strengthened or replaced, to meet the projects requirements. The Department has two methodologies for analyzing structures with link slabs, simplified and refined, both of which are described in this document. A simplified analysis shall be used and, only if this is not satisfied, may a refined analysis be used. The use of a link slab at a support with a skew angle that exceeds 45° is prohibited.

For the purposes of analyzing a structure’s global behavior, a link slab shall be assumed to act as a pinned connection between the spans it joins. This results in a superstructure that behaves as simply supported at the link slab locations when subject to vertical loads yet articulates similarly to a continuous multi-span superstructure when experiencing horizontal forces and thermal movements.

A contiguous segment shall be defined as all the spans, whether they be simple span units or continuous span units, that have been joined by link slabs. A contiguous segment’s length is the distance between the expansion joints located at the beginning and end of the segment.

Each contiguous segment must contain at least one substructure with fixed bearings. In certain situations, it may be advantageous to have multiple substructures within a contiguous segment, with fixed bearings. When using this bearing arrangement, the forces generated due to the superstructures thermal movements shall be accounted for in the analysis/design of the fixed bearings, superstructure, substructures, and foundations.

Type E.B. bearings (deformation expansion, sliding expansion, fixed), conforming to NYSDOT standards, are the only types of bearings permitted for use underneath link slabs. For piers with two lines of bearings supporting two adjacent span ends, at least one line of bearings must be expansion. For longer contiguous segments, sliding expansion bearings, which use a stainless steel over PTFE slip plane, may be used. Details and material requirements for sliding expansion bearings are provided in Part 7. The final bearing configuration for a contiguous segment shall be in place prior to the construction of any link slab within a segment. This requirement shall be included in the construction sequence provided on the contract plans.

Link slabs shall be designed following the assumptions, procedures, and requirements used, and stated, in the UHPC Link Slab Design Example provided in Part 7. Although link slabs are assumed to behave as a pinned connection between spans when analyzing the structure’s global behavior, they shall not be assumed to act as pinned for the purposes of designing the actual link slab and its anchorage. The required design procedure uses a simplified approach VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 59 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

where the girder’s end rotation is applied to the link slab at the ends of the debonded zone to induce a uniform bending moment throughout the debonded portion of the link slab.

Link slabs shall be detailed in accordance with the UHPC Link Slab Details provided in Part 7. The type of rebar corrosion protection used in link slabs shall match that of the superstructure slab. An expansion joint shall be provided in any concrete component placed on top of a link slab (barrier, sidewalk, curb, etc.). Within the debonded zone, a bond breaker shall be applied at the interface of the link slab’s debonded zone and concrete component(s). Any vertical, or inclined, anchorage reinforcement that protrudes from within the link slab’s debonded zone shall be debonded. These details are necessary for the link slab to strain as designed and to prevent excessive cracking of any adjoining concrete component(s).

If the requirements of NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, Article 4.7.4.4, are not met, either restrainers shall be installed, or the existing bridge seat shall be widened. The length (L) in equation 4.7.4.4-1 shall be taken as the distance from the centerline of the support, for which the support length is being computed, to the furthest expansion joint, or abutment, adjacent to the contiguous segment.

If a link slab is constructed utilizing staged construction, it may be necessary to install temporary links so that the behavior of the superstructure at the supports is uniform across its entire width. Temporary links shall be designed, detailed, and installed so that the girders where the link slab has not yet been installed will rotate at the same elevation as the centroid of the link slab that is already in place, rather than rotating at the bearings.

13.2 SIMPLIFIED ANALYSIS OF CONTIGUOUS SEGMENTS A simplified analysis only considers the relative change in longitudinal forces acting on the substructures due to the installation of link slabs, new bearings, elimination of longitudinal deck joints, and any other relevant superstructure and substructure modifications.

The premise of a simplified analysis is that as long as the existing structure is competent and the installation of link slabs, along with any other relevant modifications, does not increase the forces on the substructures, then using a simplified analysis for link slab retrofits is a valid way to eliminate bridge joints without needing to analyze each and every component of the existing structure. If the new factored longitudinal forces are found to be greater than the existing factored longitudinal forces, a refined analysis shall be used to determine if any of the existing substructures, and their foundations, need to be strengthened, or replaced, to meet the projects requirements.

When performing a simplified analysis, it is important that the forces be calculated using the same methodology, assumptions, and procedures for both the existing and proposed condition. The exact methodology for applying the forces, be it ASD, LFD, or LRFD, is inconsequential, as the analysis is looking for the change in applied forces, not the magnitude of the forces. A consistent approach to how the forces are calculated is necessary to accurately capture how the link slabs, along with any other relevant modifications to the structure, alter the forces acting on the substructures. The longitudinal forces used in a simplified analysis shall be those acting at the bridge seat elevation.

In most cases, engineering judgement can be used as justification for limiting the simplified analysis to only include substructures that contain fixed bearings within the proposed VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 60 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

contiguous segment. A comparison of existing and proposed longitudinal forces for substructures that will only have expansion bearings in the proposed condition is not required but should be considered when deemed appropriate.

The requirement to perform a seismic analysis, meet seismic requirements, and satisfy the Extreme Event I load combination is waived when using the simplified method.

All bearings shall be designed according to the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and NYSDOT Bridge Manual. All fixed bearing pins shall be designed to resist only the Strength I, III, and V load combinations. Additionally, fixed bearing pins shall not be designed to meet the requirement for 15% of the total vertical force as stated in Article 14.7.9.2 of the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and the minimum pin diameter specified on the NYSDOT BD Sheets is waived. The smallest available pin diameter that satisfies the design shall be used; over-designing the pin is prohibited. This is required so that during a seismic event the bearing pins will act as a ‘fuse’, essentially isolating the superstructure from the substructure in the longitudinal direction, preventing excessive damage to the fixed substructure(s).

Given that a simplified analysis only considers the changes in longitudinal forces acting on the substructures, all substructures must be provided with restraint to the superstructure’s movement in the lateral direction by the use of guides or keeper angles on the bearings, or shear block(s) on the bridge seats of all substructures, including those with fixed bearings. This results in the transverse loads being shared by all the substructures predominantly along the strong axis of the substructures and foundations. Lateral restraints shall be designed to allow transverse temperature related movement of the superstructure and be aligned with the superstructures assumed direction of thermal movement.

Analysis requirements for comparing the longitudinal forces acting on fixed substructures are as follows:

1. Structural models shall be created, for the existing and proposed conditions, that include the abutments, piers, bearings, and superstructure. The objective of these models is to get an accurate assessment of how the longitudinal loads are distributed to the substructures, within a contiguous segment, based on the superstructure’s continuity and the relative stiffness of all the supports, which shall include the combined stiffness of the bearings and columns, or stems, at each substructure. An appropriate level of refinement shall be provided in the models to meet this objective. 2. Substructures that are skewed 20° or less to the assumed direction of applied horizontal loads may be modeled as a single element whose section properties represent the combined stiffness of the columns when bending about the substructure’s longitudinal axis. Substructures that exceed this skew limit shall be modeled such that bi-axial bending and the corresponding substructure stiffness are accounted for. 3. For reinforced concrete columns, the effective moment of inertia shall be used and determined according to the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, Article 5.6.4.3. 4. The stiffness of elastomeric bearings shall be determined using Equation 14.6.3.1-2 of the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. The shear modulus used shall be the minimum value given in Table 14.7.6.2-1. For fixed bearings, the combined pin and elastomer stiffness shall be used, and the pin assumed to deform in single curvature. 5. Existing and proposed longitudinal loads shall be computed in accordance with the

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 61 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. The load factor for uniform temperature (TU) shall be taken as 1.0 for all the Strength load combinations. 6. When determining braking forces, it shall be assumed that the direction of travel will not change in the future, and that the actual number of lanes that is currently carried, or will be carried at the completion of the project, is used, in lieu of using the number of design lanes that fit within the roadway width. 7. For existing substructures with steel rocker bearings or steel sliding bearings, it shall be assumed that all the longitudinal load is taken by the substructure with the pinned, or fixed, bearings. 8. When determining the forces acting on substructures due to thermal expansion and contraction of the superstructure, the forces resulting from shear deformation of the elastomer shall be accounted for in deformation expansion bearings. Force effects due to uniform temperature in sliding expansion bearings shall be ignored. Additionally, all forces due to external restraints, such as friction of sliding approach slabs and soil pressure acting on nonconventional abutments, shall be included when determining the thermal forces acting on the substructures. Forces due to external restraints shall be ignored when determining all the other forces acting on the substructures. 9. For substructures with sliding expansion bearings, the friction force of the sliding surfaces shall be taken as 5% of the unfactored permanent vertical reaction. If the friction force is greater than the factored longitudinal force acting on the bearings, excluding forces due to thermal expansion and contraction of the superstructure, the bearings may be modeled as deformation expansion bearings when determining the longitudinal forces acting on the fixed substructure(s). 13.3 REFINED ANALYSIS OF CONTIGUOUS SEGMENTS A refined analysis shall consider all the forces acting on the substructures and their foundations including the effects of link slabs, bearings, and any other relevant superstructure and substructure modifications. These forces shall be determined using a relative stiffness analysis where the distribution of lateral loads is a function of the multi-directional stiffness of the superstructure, bearings, and substructures.

The capacity, or resistance, of all existing substructures and foundations then needs to be evaluated for the new factored loads. If any of the existing substructures or foundations of bridges originally designed with the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications no longer meet their original design code, they shall be strengthened or replaced as part of the scope of the project. For all other bridges, if any of the existing substructures or foundations do not meet either the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, or the NYSDOT Standard Specifications for Highway Bridges using HS 20 loading, they shall be strengthened or replaced as part of the scope of the project.

All bearings shall be designed according to the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and the NYSDOT Bridge Manual. All fixed bearing pins shall be designed to resist only the Strength I, III, and V load combinations. Additionally, the pins shall not be designed to meet the requirement for 15% of the total vertical force, as stated in Article 14.7.9.2 of the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and the minimum pin diameter specified on the NYSDOT BD Sheets is waived. These exemptions are required so that during a seismic event the bearing pins will act as a ‘fuse’ that limits the applied seismic load on the existing fixed substructure(s) to be only slightly greater than the non-seismic loads.

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 62 Draft July 23, 2021 New York State Department of Transportation

The requirement to perform a seismic analysis, for the purposes of determining the seismic lateral loads, is waived when using the refined method. Rather, the seismic loads used for either the Extreme Event I load combination (if using LRFD), or Group VII (if using LFD), shall be taken as the lateral resistance of the bearing pins. The lateral resistance of the bearing pins shall be the only transverse and longitudinal loads included in seismic load combinations.

The lateral resistance of a bearing pin shall be determined using equation 6.7.6.2.1-1 of the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications with the following modifications: 1) Mu replaced by Vu times the height of the bearing pad (hpad) (combined thickness of elastomeric layers and internal steel plates), 2) Fy replaced by the ultimate strength (Fu) of the steel pin, 3) resistance factors removed, and 4) less than or equal to 0.95 replaced by equal to 1.0. The equation shall then be solved for Vu and the solution used as the lateral resistance of a single bearing pin. The modified equation is as follows:

Analysis requirements when performing a refined analysis are as follows:

1. A structural model for the proposed conditions shall be created that includes the abutments, piers, bearings, and superstructure. The objective of this model is to get an accurate assessment of how the horizontal loads will be distributed to the substructures, within a contiguous segment, based on the superstructure’s stiffness and continuity, as well as the relative stiffness of all the supports, which shall include the combined stiffness of the bearings and columns, or stems, at each substructure. An appropriate level of refinement shall be provided in the model to meet this objective. 2. For reinforced concrete columns, the effective moment of inertia shall be used and determined according to the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, Article 5.6.4.3. 3. The stiffness of elastomeric bearings shall be determined using Equation 14.6.3.1-2 of the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. The shear modulus used shall be the minimum value given in Table 14.7.6.2-1. For fixed bearings, the combined pin and elastomer stiffness shall be used, and the pin assumed to deform in single curvature. 4. The proposed horizontal loads shall be computed in accordance with the appropriate design code, as defined above. When using the NYSDOT LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, the load factor for uniform temperature (TU) shall be taken as 1.0 for all the Strength load combinations. 5. When determining braking forces, it shall be assumed that the direction of travel will not change in the future, and that the actual number of lanes that is currently carried, or will be carried at the completion of the project, is used, in lieu of using the number of design lanes that fit within the roadway width. 6. When determining the forces acting on substructures due to thermal expansion and contraction of the superstructure, the forces resulting from shear deformation of the elastomer shall be accounted for in deformation expansion bearings. Force effects due to uniform temperature in sliding expansion bearings shall be ignored. Additionally, all forces due to external restraints, such as friction of sliding approach slabs and soil pressure acting on nonconventional abutments, shall be included when determining the thermal forces acting on the substructures. Forces due to external restraints shall be ignored when determining all the other forces acting on the substructures.

SP-14. MIGRATORY BIRD PROTECTION AND AVOIDANCE

VAN WYCK EXPRESSWAY (VWE) CAPACITY AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS TO JFK AIRPORT – CONTRACT 3 Part 5 - Special Provisions PIN X735.84, Contract D900053 65 Draft July 23, 2021 14.1 MIGRATORY BIRD PROTECTION AND AVOIDANCE

1. Under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, (MBTA) it is unlawful by any means or manner, to intentionally or unintentionally take, capture or kill any migratory bird, unless a federal permit is first secured. 2. Protected migratory birds include all waterfowl, herons, hawks, owls, eagles and songbirds, including swallows and eastern phoebes. Their feathers, nests, and eggs are also protected under the MBTA. 3. Exempt, or not afforded protection under the MBTA, are rock doves (domestic pigeons), house sparrows (English Sparrows), European starlings, and monk parakeets. Although these species are not protected under the Act, they should still be treated as humanely as possible. The Design-Builder shall notify the Department’s Project Manager and the Department’s Project Manager will alert the NYSDOT Regional Construction Environmental Coordinator (CEC), when active nests of the above species are found. The Department’s Project Manager and the CEC will evaluate the potential for removing the young from the nest to be raised by a Wildlife Rehabilitator. 4. Bridge cleaning and/or repair, bridge replacement – Bridges scheduled for cleaning, repair or replacement shall be inspected by the Design-Builder for bird nesting activity prior to commencing any contract related activity. Ideally this would involve a screening of all potential bridge locations for bird activity and bird nests before work operations begin. 5. Clearing and grubbing operations – Migratory birds can also be found in trees, brush and open fields. All areas of clearing and grubbing, staging areas or other areas of potential disturbance shall be inspected by the Design-Builder for bird nesting activity prior to commencing any disturbance activity. The Design-Builder shall schedule work to minimize the potential conflict between this federal law and work operations. 6. Locations that are identified as containing or harboring active migratory bird nests shall be evaluated for potential impacts or illegal taking of migratory birds, nests or eggs. If a nest (or nests) is identified by the Design-Builder on a bridge between April 15 and August 15 (potential breeding season), it should be observed for a period of several hours to determine if it is active or not. An active nest during the breeding season is indicated by adult birds constructing the nest, birds coming and going from the nest, sounds of young in the nest, or bird species matching the bird nest type flying in the vicinity of the nests. If none of these activities are observed, then the nest can be assumed inactive and can be removed and maintenance/construction activities can begin. 7. If the nest(s) is determined to be active, the Design-Builder shall not disturb, damage or remove the nest until the young are fledged (leave the nest). After fledgling occurs, the nests can be removed, and work can begin. This should be done as quickly as possible to prevent birds beginning a second nest brood at the same location. The Design-Builder shall, at no time destroy nest of hawks, falcons or eagles, as these species return to the same nest year after year.

If there are any questions regarding how to proceed with nesting migratory birds, the Design-Builder shall immediately contact the Department’s Project Manager. The Department’s Project Manager will alert the Construction Environmental Coordinator (CEC). An active nest or migratory bird CANNOT be removed, harmed or killed without a federal permit.

14.2 MIGRATORY BIRD TREATY ACT – BIRDS NESTING ON OR UNDER BRIDGES

A variety of bird species nest on or under bridges. State and Federal laws protect some of these bird species (and their nests, eggs and young). Under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), it is unlawful to intentionally or unintentionally take, capture or kill any migratory bird unless a Migratory Bird Permit is first obtained from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Each violation of the MBTA can result in a fine of $15,000, imprisonment for six months, or both.

Migratory bird species that are protected under the MBTA include all waterfowl, herons, eagles, hawks, falcons, owls and songbirds (including swallows, eastern phoebes and American robins).

Migratory bird species that are not protected under the MBTA are Rock Doves (domestic pigeons), English Sparrows, European Starlings and Monk Parakeets. Although these species are not protected, they should be treated in a humane manner. The Design-Builder is encouraged to relocate active nests of unprotected species into nearby trees or to transfer the nests to a wildlife rehabilitator.

Before commencing any bridge-related construction activities, the Engineer and Design- Builder shall survey the bridge(s) for bird nests. If the Engineer and Design-Builder observe bird nests on or under the bridge(s), the following must be determined for each nest: 1. Is the nest active (adult birds, eggs or young birds in the nest). 2. Is the nest inhabited by a protected migratory bird species.

A nest should be carefully examined or observed for several consecutive hours to determine if it is active or inactive. An active nest is indicated by adult birds constructing the nest, birds flying to and from the nest, sounds of young in the nest, or bird species matching the nest-type flying in the vicinity of the nest. If none of these activities are observed, the nest can be assumed to be inactive and it can be removed, and bridge work can commence. If the nest is determined to be active, it must be carefully examined for the presence of young birds and eggs. If young birds or eggs are absent, the nest can be removed anytime an adult bird is not present. Bridge work should commence as quickly as possible to prevent birds from beginning a second nest brood at the same location.

If young birds or eggs are present in the nest, it cannot be removed, damaged or disturbed until the young birds have fledged (leave the nest). After the young have fledged, the nest can be removed, and bridge work may commence. Work should commence as quickly as possible to prevent birds from beginning a second nest brood at the same location.

Listed below are the most common migratory birds that nest on or under bridges, and dates when eggs and young birds may be in the nests:

Earliest and Latest Dates Earliest and Latest Dates Bird Species Eggs May Be Present Young May Be Present Cliff Swallow April 19 – July 31 May 1 – August 23 Barn Swallow April 14 – August 10 April 27 – September 22 Eastern Phoebe March 25 – August 4 April 22 – September 6 American Robin March 23 – September 1 April 12 – September 25 Mourning Dove March 9 – September 28 April 6 – October 26 Peregrine Falcon March 2 – June 19 April 19 – August 31 Red Tail Hawk February 25 – July 25 March 31 – August 21

Hawks, falcons and eagles return to and use the same nest year after year. If the nest will not interfere with the proposed bridge work, it shall not be removed or damaged. However, if work will affect the nest, it can only be removed after consultation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.

Work Zone Traffic Control

Work Zone Camera Guidance

March 4th, 2020 This page is intentionally left blank. 16.3.8 Work Zone Cameras

Use of work zone cameras is an effective way, in addition to work zone signing, PVMS, and other tools to reduce speeds and driver aggression - and thus provide an added degree of safety to both motorists and workers. There has been an increasing frequency and severity of work zone intrusions, hostile incidents and threatening behavior by motorists toward flag persons and workers. Work zone cameras provide a deterrent to motorists who would violate temporary reductions in regulatory speed, aggressive actions toward flaggers or other workers, and other undesirable behavior within the work zone. In addition, in extreme cases of driver aggression, the work zone cameras will provide a means of recording hard evidence that can be used to aid in prosecution of violators.

Work Zone Cameras will have the greatest benefit when workers or flaggers are exposed to live traffic without positive protection. Work Zone Cameras should be considered as part of a work zone intended for daily operations type work. This would include preventative maintenance paving, small culvert replacement, traffic signal work, bridge maintenance, bridge inspection, mobile operations and other operations that require a daily set up and take down of the work zone. Work Zone Cameras may be considered for any intermediate or long term operation that involves alternating one way traffic with flaggers or temporary traffic signals. Work Zone Cameras shall be required where Automated Flagger Assistance Devices (AFAD’s) are proposed. Long duration work with workers behind positive barrier should not use Work Zone Cameras, unless there is a special circumstance that would allow for their use (Example: Setting steel using flaggers on a project that otherwise has traffic and workers separated by concrete barrier)

Work Zone intrusions include the following situations:  Encroachment by any mode of travel into the transition area or activity area  Vehicular contact with project personnel or equipment (including temporary impact attenuators), or channelizing devices used for delineation of the transition areas and activity area  Vehicular contact with a flagger, “Stop/Slow” paddle, automatic flagging device (AFAD’s), or temporary signal  Vehicular encroachment associated with dis-obeying flaggers, including closed lanes or lanes used by opposing traffic  For mobile operations, any vehicular encroachment from the 1st (most upstream) truck mounted impact attenuator shadow vehicle to the work area  Vehicular contact with project personnel or equipment associated with setup of advance warning signs

Hostile encounters include the following situations where a person:  Purposely intrudes a work zone  Makes threatening gestures or comments  Drives toward or hits a flagger or person performing flagging operations, vehicle, equipment, or traffic control device in an attempt to intimidate, harm or damage the flagger or object  Motorist exits his/her vehicle and approaches a flag person or other crew member in an aggressive manner  Displays a weapon or implies that he/she is armed  Causes a crew member or flag person to feel threatened for his/her safety

Any project specifying the use of Work Zone Cameras shall include the special note “Use of Work Zone Cameras”. This special note provides additional details to the contractor and inspection staff for the setup, procedures for recording video, and protocol for handling video evidence in the case of an intrusion or hostile encounter. A minimum of number two (2) cameras each shall be provided at each location specifying the use of work zone cameras. Design and layout shall be in accordance with the details provided in the special specification.

3/4/20 PIN xxxx.xx

SPECIAL NOTE USE OF WORK ZONE CAMERAS

Camera setup in each work zone is subject to the nature of the work and available locations which do not pose a hazard or conflict with the safe operation of proposed work and equipment. Cameras and associated equipment should not be placed in an area where they could be struck by traffic or moving equipment, or where they pose sight distance restrictions or other safety concerns. Cameras should be positioned to have full view of traffic activity within the work zone, and will be used primarily to record video of flaggers (or other traffic controlling devices) and traffic entering and exiting the work zone. The location of the camera installation is to be recommended by the contractor and approved by the Engineer in Charge for each camera setup. Additionally:

• Mount cameras on a stationary piece of equipment or tripod so the recorded video produces a clear and consistent image. • A minimum of two (2) cameras shall be used at each work zone and positioned so that one camera captures a direct view of vehicles entering the work zone and the other camera captures a direct view of vehicles departing the work zone. • Direct cameras toward the approach and flagger station if one exists. • Direct at least one camera toward the work crew when they are working adjacent to live traffic and no positive protection is provided.

General Requirements for the use of Work Zone Cameras:

1) Advance warning sign NYW8-47 “WORK ZONE CAMERA” shall be placed within the advance warning sign package according to the details shown in HDM 16.3.8 for short term closures and mobile operations. Sign size shall be in accordance with the MUTCD for warning signs for the applicable roadway type. 2) Work Zone Cameras are not to be used as a substitute for any other safety device or work zone requirement. 3) All video and audio recordings shall be the property of the State of New York, and shall not be used for any purpose outside those deemed acceptable by the State. 4) Each day that a work zone camera is installed and in operation, a Work Zone Surveillance Report shall be completed by NYSDOT staff for each work zone setup to document details of the Work Zone Camera in use. The form shall be submitted with the Daily Work Report. 5) Each day that a work zone camera is installed and in operation, the camera and associated mounting hardware shall be cleaned and disinfected with appropriate materials/chemicals prior to daily setup, and again upon removal at the end of the day in accordance with current NYSDOH coronavirus cleaning guidance (e.g. Interim Guidance for Cleaning and Disinfection of Public Transportation Settings for COVID- 19) https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2020/03/cleaning_guidance_publ ic_transportation.pdf

6) If there is any work zone intrusion, hostile encounter, or event where law enforcement is called, the Engineer in Charge and the Regional Construction Safety Coordinator shall be immediately notified. The contractor will remove the storage card and hand it over to the EIC or another NYSDOT representative in the presence of police. The contractor will then immediately replace the removable storage card with a new card and turn on the camera again. NYSDOT staff shall fill out and submit the Work Zone Surveillance Report, including the Incident Notes at the bottom of the form and submit it with a Daily Work Report.

1 Scope

Due to the potential for contact with either moving equipment on the guideway or with the energized power rail it is the policy of JFK AirTrain Operations and Maintenance that work within specified limits must be authorized prior to the work.

2 Potentially Hazardous Work

Work of particular concern includes activities that might:

A. Result in a collision with buildings, guideway (columns or beams) and especially trains. Examples include:

1. Excavation equipment or cranes working nearby or that could enter the track area if the equipment failed

2. Heavy equipment working in the immediate vicinity (within 30feet)

B. Create a fire or explosion hazard. Examples include:

1. Bulk storage of flammable product (e.g. gasoline)

2. Accumulation of combustible materials (e.g. wood, tires)

3. Heavy construction vehicle and equipment parking under the guideway

C. Lead to persons entering Automatic Train Control Territory (ATC) either inadvertently or purposefully. Examples include:

1. Scaffolding erected adjacent to station or track

2. Tall equipment parked next to alignment (e.g. cranes or bucket trucks)

3. A new building that provides easy access

D. Result in materials falling into the guideway. Examples include:

1. Station painting or painting of buildings adjacent to the guideway

2. Window cleaning on buildings immediately adjacent to the guideway

3. Cranes working above ATC territory but transporting materials

E. Create a hazard for the persons entering or exiting JFK AirTrain property or stations. Examples include:

1. Excavations, or trip hazards

File name: 272-5P01-HSE-8202 Rev 2 Limits of Approach Confidential and proprietary Template ID-Number: 006735 Page 4 of 10 Template Instruction ID-Number: 006736 272-5P01-BRA-8202 Revision : 02

2. Work that blocks emergency exits and/or equipment

3. Creates a dangerous fumes, smoke or other airborne hazard

Prior to any work commencing in the vicinity of the JFK AirTrain the 'company' preparing to commence work must determine which of these is a possibility and take adequate precautions.

Note: Unauthorized entry into Automatic Train Control Territory is not permitted. Accidental entry must be reported and documented.

3 Limits of Approach

The closer 'planned work' is to the JFK AirTrain Automatic Train Control Territory (ATC), the greater the hazard. There are three LIMITS of approach as shown in the following diagram. Each LIMIT warrants different precautions. These limits are applicable where train movement or electrical hazards can impact the work to be performed within the limits, or where the work to be performed may effect the operation of JFK AirTrain System.

The only areas these limits are not applicable is where areas are securely fenced, as on some at-grade sections of the guideway, if activities take place outside and below the height of the fence.

A. LIMIT 1 You are within LIMIT 1 when you are within 50 feet to 30 feet of a JFK AirTrain Station or the drip line on the guideway parapet.

Note: the drip line is the line that extends through the center of the guideway parapet on the outer edge of the dynamic envelope of the ATC Territory. The area of concern extends from the top of the column up to and beyond the guideway due to the danger of objects falling into the track from above, and below the segmental boxbeam, as defined in the drawing.

Requirements:  Limit 1 requires an AirTrain Work Permit (WP) or Work Notification, as defined in the drawings, to be submitted for approval prior to any work being done by contacting JFK AirTrain Safety Department at 1-718-570-1050 ext. 4448 / 4484 for a WP request. For Emergency WP after hours, contact the OMSF Operations Center Supervisor at 1-718-570-1048.  Any activity in Limit 1 that could affect the structure requires a Qualified AirTrain O&M employee in attendance.  At the work site the emergency number 1-718-570-1048 must be prominently displayed. Communication with OMSF Operations Center must be available.  All employees must be made aware of these LIMITS of APPROACH and the associated limitations.

File name: 272-5P01-HSE-8202 Rev 2 Limits of Approach Confidential and proprietary Template ID-Number: 006735 Page 5 of 10 Template Instruction ID-Number: 006736 272-5P01-BRA-8202 Revision : 02

 Equipment within LIMIT 1 must be arranged so that an equipment failure cannot lead to accidental entry into Limit 2 or Limit 3. (i.e. crane collapse).

All Monitors are provided by AirTrain and have ultimate authority for safety within the permitted area. B. LIMIT 2 You are within LIMIT 2 when you are within 30 feet to 2 feet of the parapet wall or station structure as defined in the drawings.

Or if the activity is presenting an undue risk to the JFK AirTrain dynamic envelope. Or if the activity is presenting an undue risk to the patrons entering or exiting a station (if unsure check with the OMSF Control Center).

Requirements:  Limit 2 requires an AirTrain Work Permit (WP) to be submitted for approval prior to any work being done by contacting JFK AirTrain Safety Department at 1-718-570-1050 ext. 4448 / 4484. For Emergency WP after hours, contact the OMSF Operations Center Supervisor at 1-718-570-1048.  While all work is being done within an area defined as LIMIT 2, a qualified AirTrain O&M employee must be present at all times to monitor the work and must have continuous radio contact with the OMSF Operations Center and be able to request trains be stopped and/or power removed immediately.  As this work may impact passenger service when performed to close to the dynamic envelope, it may have to be scheduled to minimize impact, during off- peak service hours.  Trains may need to be held and ATC protection applied and/or qualified AirTrain O&M employees utilized while work is being done. Work must cease when a train approaches.

All Monitors are provided by AirTrain and have ultimate authority for safety within the permitted area.

C. LIMIT 3 The worker or equipment is required to enter or may accidentally impact Automatic Train Control Territory.

Requirements:  Limit 3 requires an AirTrain Occupancy Permit (OP) to be submitted for approval prior to any work being done, by contacting JFK AirTrain at Safety Department at 1-718-570-1050 ext. 4448 / 4484. For Emergency Occupancy Permit after hours, contact the OMSF Operations Center Supervisor at 1-718-570-1048.  No person or object shall enter ATC territory without ATC protection having been implemented.

 Due to the potential conflict with passenger service, the AirTrain Maintenance Manager will be the only one authorized to grant access.

 It is mandatory for all personnel to have had a Hazard Awareness Orientation.
