Recommendations and Comments

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet/Division of Materials	718 Robert Semones Agency	Y Approve	I approve this material to be used on an experimental basis at this time.	Sep 30, 2016	1878
Materials	85 Tamara Bumgardner Agency	U Undecided	Anti-strips are currently found on the list of approved materials. For inclusion on the list, samples must be sent to the mix design laboratory and they must consistently pass testing according to ASTM D 4867. Warm mix asphalts are currently being accepted according to Subsection 402.01.01 of the spec book which involves successful use of the material in a trial setting. I don't think any specifications currently cover asphalt rejuvenators.	May 09, 2016	1695
