TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
SECTION 01400.1
EARTHWORKS CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE (CQA) PLAN
PART 1 - INTRODUCTION
This plan addresses the Construction Quality Assurance (CQA) procedures for the installation of the earthwork
components of the PSES Pipe Rack Liner Extension at the Cresson Project, Teller County, Colorado. This program
has been developed to assure that the construction of the soil components are in compliance with the project
SPECIFICATIONS and to demonstrate that the regulatory requirements for the construction are achieved. The
objective of this plan is to assure that proper materials, construction techniques, and procedures are followed by the
CONTRACTOR and that the intent of the design is met. This plan also provides the means for resolution of
problems that may occur during construction. This plan addresses quality assurance, not quality control. This CQA
Plan is independent of the quality control (QC) programs conducted by CONTRACTOR. The intent of the CQA
Plan is to provide independent third party verification and testing, to demonstrate that the CONTRACTOR has met
its obligations in the supply and installation of earthwork (soils) materials according to the design, project
SPECIFICATIONS, contractual, and regulatory requirements. Quality control is provided by CONTRACTOR and
refers to those actions taken by the CONTRACTOR to ensure that materials and workmanship meet the
requirements of the DRAWINGS and SPECIFICATIONS.
