14. DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT/MODIFICATION (CONTINUED)

A.Below are the Request For Information (RFI) responses which are hereby incorporated into any subsequent contract award.

Failure to use the revised documents and requirements revised within will result in your proposal being non-responsive.

RFI #1 –The Statement of Work references creek crossings that are full of large boulders and a requirement for a bulldozer for completing the work. From the map it does not appear that there are any large creek crossings so can additional guidance be provided? If there are no crossings, will a bulldozer still be required?

Answer: The creek crossing was a left-over item from a previous task order. There is no creek crossing but there is a very steep grade that is extremely rocky, and this section will need a bulldozer for grading and rolling dip shaping.

RFI #2 –Will water be required for any of the work?

Answer: No water is required for grading or compaction.

RFI #3 – Will new overside drain installation require removal of old drains and if so, will old overside drains need to be removed from the site for disposal?

Answer: There will be a few damaged drains that will need to be pulled. The Forest will handle the disposal.

RFI #4 – Is the Restore Drainage Function 839 Unit Price on the Solicitation Schedule of Items based on 839 (1) or 839 (2) as referenced in the Supplemental Specification Pay Items?

Answer: 839(1) no water.

RFI #5 Which Pay Item on the Supplemental Specifications is the Road Blading (Bulldozer) Unit Price on the Solicitation Schedule of Items?

Answer: 811 Road Blading. The Forest wants to ensure that the Contractor will address the steep rocky section and not lift the blade. The rest of the road can be bladed with a typical road grader.

RFI #6- Section B Schedule of Items Item 805 Mobilization – In the description for this Item the Pay Unit in the Supplemental Specifications is listed as per mile. Is it to be assumed that the Unit Price in the Schedule of Items is the total cost for mobilization? Or should it be based on a per mile cos.

Answer: No, per the schedule on page 8 it is a lump sum item for total cost, not per mile.

RFI#7- Solicitation states bonding costs should be included in the contract price. In the Solicitation Schedule of Items, under which of the Construction Items should the cost of bonding be included?

Answer: The cost of bonds can be included in the mobilization line item.

B. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
