Bituminous material cost adjustments will be made to provide additional compensation to the Contractor, or credit to the project owner, for fluctuations in the cost of bituminous materials when optioned by the Contractor. The bidder shall indicate on the attached form whether or not this special provision will be part of the contract and submit the completed form with his/her bid. Failure to submit the form, or failure to fill out the form completely, shall make this contract exempt of bituminous materials cost adjustments. The adjustments shall apply to permanent and temporary hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures, bituminous surface treatments (cover and seal coats), and preventative maintenance type surface treatments that are part of the original proposed construction, or added as extra work and paid for ' by agreed unit prices. The adjustments shall not apply to bituminous prime coats, tack coats, crack filling/sealing, joint filling/sealing, or extra work paid for at a lump sum price or by force account. Method of Adjustment. Bituminous materials cost adjustments will be computed as follows. CA = (BPIP- BPIF) x (%ACS / 100) x Q 1 Where: CA = Cost Adjustment, $. BPIP = Bituminous Price Index, as published by the Department of Transportation for the month the work is performed, $/ton ($/metric ton). BPIF = Bituminous Price Index, as published by the Department of Transportation for the month prior to the letting for work paid for at the contract price; or for the month the agreed unit price letter is submitted by the Contractor for extra work paid for by agreed unit price, $/ton ($/metric ton). %ACS = Percent of virgin Asphalt Cement in the Quantity being adjusted. For HMA mixtures, the % ACS will be determined from the adjusted job mix formula. For bituminous materials applied, a performance graded or cutback asphalt will be considered to be 100% ACS and undiluted emulsified asphalt will be considered to be 65% ACS. Q = Authorized construction Quantity, tons (metric tons) (see below).
