Scarification is carried to remove unacceptable asphalt that does not meet standard specifications, remove irregularities, bumps, or ruts on the road before resurfacing it.

I assume you are talking about flexible (asphalt) pavements. Sacrification is needed when the cuts, potholes and all deformations are such that :
The entire bituminous layer until the depth of the craters is scraped off, and a new layer with fresh material is then applied to reconstruct the road.
