Access roads and parking areas which the Industry needs to construct on the UP's Right of Way or
property, which the UP has easement or interest in, shall be approved by the Engineer before such
roads or parking areas are built. All access roads and parking areas constructed by the Industry that
the Engineer deems unsuitable for future UP use shall be removed at Industry expense upon
completion of the Work. The areas shall be stabilized with gravel or put back to preexisting
conditions where required.
8.07 DUST CONTROL - Industry shall provide equipment for dust control during construction to
provide for the safety of UP personnel and UP operations.
8.08 CLEAN UP - Upon completion of work, the Industry shall clean the location of the Work and
all ground on UP property occupied by him in connection with the Work. The Industry shall remove
all rubbish; excess materials, temporary structures, and equipment, leaving the location of the Work
cleaned to the satisfaction of the Engineer.
8.09 ROADBED WIDTH - Roadbeds shall be constructed per UP's Engineering Standard
Drawing No. 0003. On UP owned or maintained tracks, a twenty four foot roadbed will be required.
Although a twenty -four foot roadbed is preferred, tracks not owned or maintained by UP may have a
twenty two foot roadbed (with permission of UP's Engineering Department). Additional roadbed
width will be required along all turnouts and derails to provide adequate room for placement of
walkways (see UP Exhibit `E' Drawing).
8.10 CONSTRUCTION PAD - Industry shall provide a construction pad adjacent to the location
where a turnout will be installed in UPRR track. The pad should be sufficiently sized to facilitate the
assembly and installation of the turnout. At the direction of the Manager Track Maintenance or MIPP,
the pad may have to be removed to facilitate proper drainage after the switch is installed.
Construction Pad details should be included with the Construction Plans (see UP Exhibit `T.O.PAD
Drawing).
8.11 CLEARING AND GRUBBING - Areas required for embankment or excavation shall be
cleared and grubbed. On areas required for excavation, all stumps, roots, etc., shall be removed to a
minimum depth of two feet (2') below the sub -grade elevation. On areas required for embankment,
all stumps, roots, etc., shall be removed to a minimum of two feet (2') below the existing ground. All
holes remaining after clearing and grubbing shall be backfilled and compacted and the entire area
bladed to provide drainage, except, in areas to be immediately excavated, the Engineer may direct
that the holes not be backfilled. On areas required for borrow sites and material sources, all stumps
and roots, (except for designated trees and shrubs) shall be removed to prevent such objectionable
matter becoming mixed with the material to be used in construction.
Areas requiring minimal grubbing, as designated by the Engineer, shall have a minimum of six inches
(6 ") of vegetation and topsoil removed from the construction area.
All cleared and grubbed material shall be either:
a) Stockpiled to be used as topsoil after grading is complete, if the Engineer has approved the
material for this use.
b) Properly disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer and in compliance with Federal,
State and Local regulations.
