RFI # RFI Question Government RFI Response Notes
Their is a low area at gate at main office location. Do we need to Patch this area before slurry coat?
Yes, this area will need to be sawcut and hot patched prior to slurry coat. Approximately 10'x10'
I searched for liquidated damages and I didnt see it in the documents. Is there liquidated damages and if so what is amount?
There are no liquidated damages for this project.
Just to clarify the road will be going back to the current width and we do not need to rebuild the road to widths on bid form
Correct, the width was a conservative measurement due to various changes in width throuout. All widths stay the same as existing.
Just to clarify the class 2 base bid item is just in case we need to add base to existing road if grinded up asphalt doesnt appear to have enough base in certain areas?
Correct, the thickness throughout could vary and this is estimated to make up for any thin areas of asphalt.
Sourcing the class two base for this project. Can we use a Caltrans recycled Class 2 base, or does it need to be Native Aggregate?
Yes.
For cracks larger than 1.5 Inches and smaller than 6 inches, can the contractor install mastic crack sealant in lieu of wide crack patching with AC?
Yes, that would be acceptable. Any Crack over 6" width would still be hot patched.
Can the contractor close Fraizer Mountain Road to install the slurry seal?
Yes, this is a Forest Service Road so we can close it with barricades and by informing the public via social media. The upper section can be closed by the existing gate.
