Questions from Industry 12805B23Q0132 As of 26 January 2023

1. I was not able to find in the scope of work how you want the holes filled back in once the structures are removed. Please advise.

Govt Response: There is no requirement to backfill the holes.

2. The igloo drawings incorporated into the PWS indicate these igloos are 80’ long. Is this correct?

Govt Response: No. The drawings incorporated are ‘period’ standard drawings. All dimensions for these igloos are similar, except they are only 40-43’ long.

As of 30 January 2023

3. These 12 igloo’s are empty. Right?

Govt Response: Yes.

4. So we don’t need to haul in any dirt to fill the holes? For the foundation?

Govt Response: No.

5. What’s your plan for the holes then, just grade the area and call it good?

Govt Response: Our future plans are irrelevant to this solicitation.

6. Can I get a clearer look at the specs of how they are built? Its difficult to see some of the dimensions.

Govt Response: No. There are no other documents available as to how the igloos are built.

7. We have a vendor who is able to complete the demolition work requested in this solicitation. They have twenty plus years of experience in this industry with a proven track record to show. We are going to subcontract this project to them. Do we have to have the proven documented track record as a company or can we use their proven track record?

Govt Response: It would be acceptable to use your subcontractors documented experience as FAR Clause 52.214-19, Limitations on Subcontracting, does not apply and your documented experience was not specifically called for.

8. Can topsoil be redistributed and leveled on-site, or does it need to be exported off site?

Govt Response: There is no requirement to do any additional work with the topsoil.

9. Would you consider extending the due date of this RFP to February 17th, 2022 so we can secure a local disposal site and proper environmental plan to dispose of potential contaminants on site that may be present to include lead paint and asbestos?

Govt Response: There is no intention to extend the RFQ date.

10. Please confirm that no pricing information is required in Cell 10C, 10D, 10E or 10F on Exhibit A – Bid Schedule. Is the Offeror only required to price the cells highlighted in green or red for Line Item 0001?

Govt Response: You would fill out 11E or 12E accordingly, but only one of the two blocks.

11. Has the concrete within these bunkers been tested for contaminants? If so, may the Offeror have a copy of the test?

Govt Response: No test.
