	Prior to shipment of performance graded binders, the refinery or terminal must comply with the QC/QA requirements of [http://www.modot.org/business/standards_and_specs/SpecbookEPG.pdf#page=14 Sec 1015]. An approved quality control plan must be on file in the source district as well as at Construction and Materials for PG binders. A quality control plan for emulsified asphalts and/or cutback asphalts may also be on file. In this case, acceptance of material from that source is based on compliance with the QC/QA requirements of [http://www.modot.org/business/standards_and_specs/SpecbookEPG.pdf#page=14 Sec 1015] for cutbacks and emulsions. If no quality control plan is on file with MoDOT for emulsified asphalt or cutback asphalt, certified test results for each batch are to be furnished to MoDOT prior to shipment of the material.

	For suppliers of performance graded binders who ship infrequently, the district, with concurrence from the Chemical Laboratory Director, may establish an arrangement with the supplier to suspend inspection activities if that supplier is not anticipating shipping to MoDOT work, until such time that binder is to be shipped to our work. In these cases, the supplier is required to continue quality control inspection at their facility in accordance with their quality control plan. These same arrangements are allowed through the winter months for normal suppliers when no binder is being shipped, without the concurrence of the Chemical Laboratory Director. For suppliers who ship infrequently, the district responsible for inspection must request that the supplier notify MoDOT well in advance of resuming shipments to ensure proper inspection. This option is not allowed for suppliers who anticipate shipping binder to department work more frequently than once every three months. (Note that this option is intended to be used for suppliers located a long distance from the district responsible for		For suppliers of performance graded binders who ship infrequently, the district, with concurrence from the Chemical Laboratory Director, may establish an arrangement with the supplier to suspend inspection activities if that supplier is not anticipating shipping to MoDOT work, until such time that binder is to be shipped to our work.

	Determine the quantity of material in truck shipments in accordance with [http://www.modot.org/business/standards_and_specs/SpecbookEPG.pdf#page=14 Sec 1015] for gallons (L) and from the scale weights (mass) shown on the bill of lading, manifest or truck ticket for pounds (kg). Determine the volume of material in a railroad car by measuring the level of the material below the dome or in the dome, as the case may be, to the nearest 1/4 in. (5 mm). The measurements are taken to the oil level and not the foam level. With these measurements, the volume can be determined from the outage tables that are available from the manufacturer for all calibrated railroad cars. Obtain the temperature of the material in degrees Fahrenheit (Celsius) at the time of the measurement of material. This temperature is used to convert the volume of the material at its current temperature to its volume at 60° F (15.6° C).
