SAPMT has reviewed the subject submittal dated November 20, 2013 and has approved with the following comments: 
 
1.	Based on the fact that much more details and drawings are required to construct the ditch, such as details which shall include backfilling requirements/ specifications on the sides of the ditch, rip rap thicknesses and specifications, plan views showing the contents and their associated widths in the ditch, the VA-846523-001 (as concurred by the project designer) is approved for construction up to top of LEAN CONCRETE LEVEL, unless complete IFC is submitted.
2.	Consider providing notes about steel specifications.
3.	RFIs shall include shop drawings showing backfill levels, invert levels, top of concrete levels etc. at every 25m or smaller intervals for easy verification.
4.	Provide more details (section) about waterproofing system.
5.	Consider breaking the continuity of lines of lean concrete between sections A-A and B-B to avoid confusion.
6.	ICC shall remove or fix any discrepancies/ deviations on its own expense, if they occur after a complete IFC for the project is approved, with no impacts on project cost and time.
Should you have any questions, please contract Sohail Moughal, Project Engineer on Tel. No. +966 12 422 4570.
