General Special Provisions, Unofficial Specifications Book, and the Material Sampling Manual
The General Special Provisions, Unofficial Specifications Book, and Material Sampling Manual apply to contracts advertising on or after the date of the indicated revision. Both the General Special Provisions and Unofficial Specifications Book documents are identified by version using a four digit number that specifies the Standard Specification year and the revision number (e.g. GSP-1805 is the 5th General Special Provision document issued for the 2018 Standard Specifications, and USB-1805 is correspondingly the 5th Unofficial Specifications Book for the 2018 Standard Specifications). The Material Sampling Manual is identified by version using a three digit number that specifies the Material Sampling Manual Year and the revision number for that year (e.g. MSM22.3 is the 3rd Material Sampling Manual for the calendar year 2022).
IMPORTANT - The Unofficial Specifications Book has not been vetted or formally approved by the Specifications Committee and is therefore neither legally nor contractually binding. It is provided for informational purposes only, and no guarantee of any sort is provided regarding the contents. The Vermont Agency of Transportation takes no responsibility for any errors or omissions. Please see the full disclaimer on the first page of the Unofficial Specifications Book.
