- YEAR CREATED: 2003

This document is a preconstruction conference checklist that outlines various topics and considerations to be discussed and addressed before the start of a construction project.
The checklist covers a range of areas including general testing services, project inspection, rights-of-way, easements, and access, staking of work, submittal data, contractor's schedule, materials, utilities, construction progress meetings, drawings, safety and sanitary regulations, prior occupancy, coordination and layout responsibilities, and advising subcontractors and vendors.
The document emphasizes the need for testing and inspection services as specified in the technical specifications, with the state reserving the right to hire an independent testing firm. It also highlights the importance of introducing a site representative, defining the scope of work and lines of authority, and explaining any portions of the project site not available to the contractor.
The checklist further addresses the routes of site access and egress, requirements for facilities occupancy and routine operations, coordination with external entities such as railroads and municipalities, and the responsibilities of the surveyor and contractor in staking the work.
It also outlines the requirements for submittal data, including subcontractor and material lists, shop drawings, and a construction waste management plan. The contractor's schedule is analyzed in detail, considering the activities of the facility and other contractors on-site.
The document provides guidelines for delivering materials to the project site, labeling and identification requirements, and the use of state utilities during construction. It also emphasizes the importance of safety and sanitary regulations, the submission of a site-specific safety plan, and compliance with state regulations.
Other topics covered include construction progress meetings, the need for approved drawings on-site, the maintenance of as-built drawings, and the responsibility of the contractor for coordination and layout of work. The contractor is also reminded to advise subcontractors and vendors of the discussed items.
Overall, the document serves as a comprehensive checklist to ensure that all necessary considerations and preparations are made before the start of a construction project.
