Addendum No. _1__

Date: 2/12/2025

Your reference is directed to the Request for Proposal for 2025-SWB-10 Drainage System Cleaning and Inspection Services for the Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans proposals that are due on February 21, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. (CST).

This addendum provides for the following:

1) Revisions to Bid Document

2) Questions Answered

3) Pre-Bid Attendance

1. Replace Part II, Section III, Paragraph IV with:

a. “It shall be the responsibility of the proposer to adequately decant the combination vacuum trucks debris body to ensure the maximum amount of solids and minimum amount of water is disposed of at the appropriate disposal facilities. Should disposed debris be observed to be overly saturated with water, a percentage deduction to the disposal bid item of 10% shall be applied.”

2. Add Part II, Section IV – Special Project Requirements, Execution of the work requirements:

a. K. It is the responsibility of the Proposer to make all necessary arrangements for the provision of water, electricity, drainage, sanitary sewage disposal, gas, compressed air, and any other utility service required to prosecute the work of this contract. Water used by the Proposer for this contract will be furnished by the Board at no cost to the Proposer, if conditions permit. Costs of all other services shall be borne by the Proposer. The proposer will be responsible for providing appropriate backflow prevention assemblies to fill the combination cleaning vacuum truck tanks and may be required to use metered devices.

Proposer will be required to keep track of water usage and provide those numbers to SWBNO for accounting purposes.

3. Add Part II, Section IV – Special Project Requirements, Between Execution of the work requirements and Construction Photographs And Documentation Of The Work:

a. Working days

i. The proposer will have 275 calendar days to complete the scope of work to a minimum of 95% completion.

b. Liquidated damages

i. Should the proposer fail to complete the work within the specified time as provided in these specifications, the Proposer shall pay to the SWBNO, not as a penalty, but as acknowledged liquidated damages, the sum per day in the amount of $1,000 for each day the proposer is delinquent. This amount will be reported to the SWBNO’s Chief Financial Officer, who will deduct the same amount from any balance then due or which may become due to the Proposer. The SWBNO will not ask the Proposer to waive “notice of default”.

4. Add Part II, 2.13 Subcontractor, at end of paragraph:

a. The proposer shall complete with its own forces a minimum of 51% of the contract work.

5. I notice that fee schedules are to be turned in via separate envelope. However, the required DBE correspondence includes negotiated terms and rates. I wanted to confirm that including these rates in the bid package would not be grounds for disqualification? Or should these terms and rates be included in the separate price schedule envelope?

The Economically Disadvantaged Business Participation Sheet and EDBP Acknowledgement of Negotiated Terms Form shall be turned in with the Cost Proposal.

6. What kind of reports are required from the sonar inspection? Debris levels, etc.?

Please refer to Part II, Secon II, Sonar Inspection on page 13.

The above revisions shall be incorporated in and take precedence over any conflicting part of the original proposal documents. This addendum is hereby officially made a part of the referenced proposal.

This addendum consists of four (4) pages.
