Road Inventory. A. Pre-Construction Inventory Company, prior to the commencement of construction, shall perform an inventory and/or survey to record the condition of the pavement surface of the Village Highways listed in the Principal Road Use Schedule (Exhibit A) prior to use by Company or Company's Representative(s). Company shall provide notice to Village of the start dates and completion dates of the road survey work. During this survey the entire length of the roads as listed in the Principal Road Use Schedule (Exhibit A) shall be videotaped and if necessary photographs may be taken. In addition, the Village will provide Company or Company's Representative(s) copies of any plans, cross-sections and specifications relevant to the existing road structure, if requested. The survey company(s) shall provide a network level analysis of the condition of the roads. The assessments may be conducted using the pavement condition index (PCI) methodology, adopted by ASTM Testing Standard D 6433 Standard Practice for Roads and Parking Lots Pavement Condition Index Surveys. The PCI provides a numerical indication of the overall pavement condition for each road and will be used to evaluate the effects of the Project construction traffic. The road inventory shall include: photographs which are date- and geo-stamped; pavement images with 1-mm crack resolution; ride quality; rutting; and road surface profiling. Company shall provide to the Village a copy of the final report describing the road inventory within ten (10) days of receiving the report. For any drainage structures on the proposed routes that the Village reasonably determines may not carry the loads proposed by the Company or Company's Representative(s), the Village shall have the right to hire a consultant to make a study of the drainage structure to determine the load carrying capacity. Company or Company's Representative(s) shall furnish the consultant with drawings depicting the axle numbers, spacing and loading for the trucks moving the oversized loads. If it is determined that a structure will not carry the loads that are proposed, Company or Company's Representative(s) may propose a plan to strengthen the structure. The Village will then furnish Company or Company's Representative(s) with all available plans. Should Company or Company's Representative(s) present a plan to strengthen a structure, the Village will then have their consultant review these plans to determine if the improvements will carry the proposed loads. All reasonable costs incurred by the Village for these services shall be paid by Company. Copies of all pre-construction documentation shall be provided to each of the Parties. B. Post-Construction Inventory Upon completion of construction of the Project, Company will perform a post-construction inventory and/or survey, the methods of which shall be identical to those of the pre-construction survey. The two sets of data will be compared and if there is any wheel lane rutting, cracking or other damage in excess of the original survey, the parties shall negotiate to determine the extent of the repairs or improvements needed to return the roads to a pre-construction condition, and any inability to resolve any disputes shall be determined by the dispute resolution procedure in Section 5.G. The design of these repairs or improvements shall conform to standards provided in the IDOT Bureau of Local Roads and Streets Manual. The cost of these repairs or improvements shall be paid for by Company.
