Bituminous Concrete. Bituminous concrete shall conform to the specifications set forth by the applicable subsections of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Public Works, Standards Specifications for Highways and Bridges, 1988 Edition, as amended.

Bituminous Concrete. The delay of 90 days, attributed to the concessionaire by IE was for delayed structural completion of ROB-3 at Sitamarhi by-pass. The ROB at Jappaha and structural portion of one of the ROBs at Sitamarhi by-pass were completed before provisional completion date. The required approvals and railway land for ROB-3 at Sitamarhi by-pass was available with the concessionaire in September 2013 and ROB-3 could also have been completed by March 2015. This delay should not be subsumed in the delay on the part of NHAI in handing over of land as more than 90 per cent of the land was handed over before November 2013. • It was noticed that NHAI had handed over 64.86 kms (more than 75 per cent of the stretch) to the concessionaire till December 2012 and 74.90 kms (more than 90 per cent) by 25 November 2013. While the Concessionaire completed the work upto DBM level on 68.20 km by November 2013, they had completed BC work on only 29.90 km by that date and hence was not ready for provisional completion certificate. The concessionaire could complete BC on 75 per cent of the stretch only by July 2014 i.e. eight months after the scheduled completion date. Since tests prescribed in the CA were completed by December 2014, provisional completion certificate could have been issued earliest on that date. Thus, provisional completion certificate could not have been granted in 2013 and the restoration of annuities without any deduction despite the recommendation of IE and the Project Director, resulted in undue favour to the Concessionaire amounting to `25.67 crore. NHAI in its reply stated (January 2018) that • NHAI had also defaulted in handing over of land. Annuities were restored with the approval of Executive Committee based on the recommendations of three Chief General Managers Committee, after detailed analysis of the defaults on the part of NHAI and concessionaire. • Delay days worked out to 588 against 582 days noted by XX. NHAI had considered the lesser of the two. Reply of the Management was not acceptable as
