Machine-translated summary — verify against original

A plant company with close capital and personnel ties to NIPPO Corporation supplied asphalt mixture used for asphalt paving work on the 2022 Road 54 Kamihuno pavement repair project ordered by the Sangi River National Highway Office to the project contractor. The contract documents (special specifications, design drawings, etc.) specified the use of asphalt mixture with new aggregate (new asphalt mixture), and the contractor also designated this type to the plant company. The plant company reported that the asphalt mixture delivered for the project met the specifications specified in the design documents. However, an investigation by NIPPO revealed that the asphalt mixture delivered had different specifications from those in the design documents.
