Recommendations and Comments

KYTC	275 Scott Phelps Agency	U Undecided	I spoke with Bill Broyles about the approval of this product for experimental use. Since the committee recently voted to move other products that perform the same function to Phase IV, this product is being moved to Phase IV as well.	Sep 13, 2010	673
KYTC	32 David Quarles Agency	Y Approve	The item should be moved to Phase VIII as it is a product incidental to construction. When dust is caused by construction it is the sole responsibility of the contractor to control. When it is caused by traffic we pay for water only with all other methods being at the contractors expense (107.01.04).	Jun 16, 2010	532
