15. Where sections of curb or curb and gutter are removed by the permittee, a minimum of 10 <br />linear feet of curb and gutter shall be removed and replaced. An alternative to this <br />requirement shall be removing and replacing 3 linear feet of curb and gutter with the new <br />curb and gutter tied into the existing curb by inserting three 12 inch x #4 rebar dowels into <br />drilled %2 inch diameter by 6 inch deep holes in the adjoining existing curbs and gutters, 1 <br />dowel in the curb and 2 dowels in the gutter at each end of the replaced section. <br />When the gutter bar portion of the curb and gutter is removed along an asphalt street, at least <br />24 inches of asphalt concrete shall be removed to allow sufficient room for placement of the <br />forms for the new face of gutter and proper compaction of asphalt restoration. An alternate <br />to removal of adjacent asphalt shall be to saw cut the asphalt at the face of the gutter bar, <br />using the edge of asphalt as the form for concrete replacement. <br />When the curb is removed but the gutter bar is left in place, epoxy shall be used on the back <br />of the gutter to bond the existing Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) to the new PCC being <br />placed (i.e. at driveways, handicapped access ramps, etc.). <br />16.
