Seed and/or resurface all areas modified or damaged during the project construction. f. Accomplish other incidental duties to accommodate site peculiar conditions. g. Implement and maintain a quality control plan to ensure contract compliance. Conduct all required tests and checks to verify contract compliance. For proposal development purposes, assume that PAPI installation within the Runway Safety Area may be completed during daylight hours. Work shall be sequenced so that duration of runway closures and threshold displacements will be minimized. Means of minimizing runway closures, such as temporarily displacement of runway thresholds, must be coordinated with airport operations prior to start of construction. The contractor shall furnish all plant, materials, labor and equipment required to close a runway, temporarily displace a threshold, or partially close a runway as applicable to the site in order to perform work on the runway safety area. The contractor shall perform this work in accordance with local airport requirements and FAA requirements.
