Pre-Bid Inquiries (PBI’s) for Contract Bidding

PBI-001 West Chicken Culvert Replacement Call Order Question: Clearing limits are shown on the Road Structure Details Sheet 11 yet there is no pay item for clearing, grubbing, or roadside brushing?

Answer: Roadside clearing and grubbing or roadside brushing are not included in this call order. The clearing limits are a part of the road structure standard detail included in most road contracts. Roadside clearing and grubbing will be completed by a separate contract. Offerors should be aware of two contracts performing in same general area during the period of performance.

PBI-002 West Chicken Culvert Replacement Call Order Question: Under pay item 64804 the estimate of quantities states that streambed material may be sorted from excavation. However, on Culvert Stream Simulation Details Sheet 9 the statement says “Bed Class 16 Streambed (TYP) Material may need to be imported from designated sources.”

Answer: The Forest Service will allow the contractor to sort streambed material from the excavation. Previous projects in the area have produced minimal onsite material. The Forest Service believes that the rock necessary to produce the large Class 16 streambed material surrounding the footings will need to be imported from designated sources shown on Sheet 2, however, some of the smaller Class 6 mateial may aslo need to be imported. Approximately 30 CY of streambed material may need to be imported for stream simulation and is indirect to pay item 64804.
