To: 

Technical Advisory Committee

From:

Doug Bilse, Principal Engineer

Meeting Date:

January 9, 2020

Subject:

Presentation on RockAsphalt Naturally-Occuring Pavement Patch Material


RECOMMENDED ACTION:
RECEIVE a presentation on a naturally-occurring asphalt for increased strength and longer pavement life, including a field demonstration.
SUMMARY:
This presentation offers an alternative to hot-melt asphalt to extend the life of new pavement.  With Measure X and SB1 pavement maintenance funding going directly to cities and counties, hot-melt asphalt alternatives may provide a way to extend the life of those maintenance projects and allow agencies to maintain more road miles over time.
DISCUSSION:

Thomas Bonin, RockAsphalt Regional Government Director, will present technical information on naturally-occurring asphalt for pavement projects to extend their operational life.
