Explanation
The projects were initiated as a permanent repair response due to damage to the roadway which occurred during the
July 29-30, 2021 storm event. The projects propose a new retaining wall and 1,000 feet of roadway reconstruction along
a segment of NH 123A beginning approximately 0.1 miles north of the intersection of NH 123 and NH 123A in the Town
of Alstead. The projects reconstruct NH 123A adjacent to the Cold River and Vilas Pool Dam to repair damage resulting
from 2021 storm events, which overtopped the Vilas Pool Dam and severely eroded NH 123A.
While advertised as a single construction contract, there are two projects for Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) administration purposes. The 43566A project extends from the southerly project limits to the Vilas Pool Dam
parking area, and the 43566B project covers from there to the northerly project limits.
This section of NH 123A adjacent to the Vilas Pool Dam has a history of flood damage resulting from insufficient dam
spillway capacity during extreme storm events. The alternate spillway is NH 123A with the Cold River overwhelming
ditch lines and eroding pavement and embankments. The Department successfully applied for FEMA Project Assistance
Program mitigation funding by demonstrating a retaining wall will incorporate resilience to withstand high-flow
conditions and reduce the risk of future damage. The retaining wall stabilizes the embankment that supports NH-123A
along the Cold River east bank, thereby protecting the roadway from erosion, undermining and potential failure during
future flood events. Additional drainage, grading and rock removal adjacent to the dam, and permanent erosion control
improvements are proposed to divert away from NH 123A during flooding events. In addition to other ancillary
improvements, the roadway shoulder width and cross slope in the area of the new retaining wall has been designed to
accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic.
The proposed contingency amount is 10% of the contract amount. This is to account for the risks associated with the
large quantity of rock excavation and construction restrictions from project agreements such as limited roadway closure
window and maintaining access to the Vilas Pool Dam.
Although the bid costs exceeded the Department’s estimate by 20.72%, the low bid of two bids received is felt to be
reasonable for the work involved. The confines of the work site and the rural location of the project likely contributed to
the higher than expected bid prices. Major items that contributed to the increase cost include Item 203.2 - Rock
Excavation $87,000, Item 520.12 - Concrete Class A, Above Footings (F) $105,000, Item 504.101 - Common Bridge
Excavation $40,000, Item 504.2 - Rock Bridge Excavation $40,000, and Item 692. Mobilization $115,000. Readvertising
this project would result, in our opinion, in higher prices and prevent the completion of the work in a timely manner. The
Department considers it to be in the best interest of the State to accept this bid to accomplish these needed repairs.
The Contractor has been prequalified by this Department. The Contract has been approved by the Attorney General as
to form and execution, and the Department has certified that the necessary funds are available and the bid reasonably
conforms to the engineer’s estimate in accordance with State procedure. Copies of the fully executed contract are on file
at the Secretary of State’s Office and the Department of Administrative Service’s Office and subsequent to Governor and
Council approval will be on file at the Department of Transportation.
This project funding is: 90% Federal funds (FEMA Public Assistance Funds) w/ 10% Non-participating State (Betterment)
match.
A copy of the Tabulation of Bids received for this project is attached along with the Contract Supplemental Sheet and a
map indicating the location of the project.
Your approval of this resolution is respectfully requested. The Department of Transportation has determined that the
vendor is in good standing with the Secretary of State’s Office, has secured the required levels of insurance, and has
provided evidence of authority to execute and be bound by the contract.
Sincerely,
David M. Rodrigue, P.E.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROJECT INFORMATION SHEET
DESCRIPTION: The projects propose a new retaining wall and 1000 feet of roadway reconstruction along a
segment of NH 123A beginning approximately 0.1 miles north of the intersection of NH 123 and NH 123A in
the Town of Alstead. The projects reconstruct NH 123A adjacent to the Cold River and Vilas Pool Dam to
repair damage resulting from 2021 storm events, which overtopped the Vilas Pool Dam and severely eroded
NH 123A.
While advertised as a single construction contract, there are two projects for Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) administration purposes. The 43566A project extends from the southerly
project limits to the Vilas Pool Dam parking area, and the 43566B project covers from there to the northerly
project limits.
FEDERAL FUNDING: 90% (FEMA Public Assistance Funds) w/ 10% Non-participating State (Betterment)
match.
CONTINGENCY: The proposed contingency is 10% of the contract amount. This is to account for the risks
associated with the large quantity of rock excavation and construction restrictions from project agreements
such as limited roadway closure window and maintaining access to the Vilas Pool Dam.
PROJECT INITIATED: Permanent repair response due to damage to the roadway during the July 29-30, 2021
storm event, as noted in Description.
PROJECT EXPLANATION: This section of NH 123A adjacent to the Vilas Pool Dam has a history of flood
damage resulting from insufficient dam spillway capacity during extreme storm events. The alternate
spillway is NH 123A with the Cold River overwhelming ditch lines and eroding pavement and embankments.
The Department successfully applied for FEMA Project Assistance Program mitigation funding by
demonstrating a retaining wall will incorporate resilience to withstand high-flow conditions and reduce the
risk of future damage. The retaining wall stabilizes the embankment that supports NH-123A along the Cold
River east bank, thereby protecting the roadway from erosion, undermining and potential failure during
future flood events. Additional drainage, grading and rock removal adjacent to the dam, and permanent
erosion control improvements are proposed to divert away from NH 123A during flooding events. In
addition to other ancillary improvements, the roadway shoulder width and cross slope in the area of the new
retaining wall has been designed to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic.
TRAFFIC IMPLICATION: The project includes the closure of NH 123A and a full signed detour of the project
area. The detour duration is for up to a 50-calendar day period, between the period of June 19
th, 2026
through August 14th, 2026. Detour signing will be set up prior to closure as laid out in the Plans. Notification
requirements prior to detour implementation can be found in the Proposal.
The project will use two-way alternating one-lane traffic patterns to re-open NH 123A to a single lane of
traffic facilitated by signage. This traffic pattern will also be used for short-term construction operations.
FINAL COMPLETION DATE: November 20, 2026.
