Questions and Answers
HENRY BIGELOW DRYDOCK FY21
Question 1:
Drawing HB 085 – General Arrangement
Answer 1:
Attached to Amendment 0002.
Question 2:
Tech Manual – Waterborne Underwater Hull Cleaning Navy Ships
Answer 2:
Attached to Amendment 0002.
Question 3:
Item 2 general – para. 2.2.3 lead. What is meant by sheathing? Also, do we have to try and budget for lead abatement or will lead removal be handled via AIR upon discovery?
Answer 3:
It is 1 pound lead septum. The lead septum is in between an inner and outer layer of insulation as shown on drawing HB-085 FF01, “Insulation Arrangement”. There is no lead paint on the ship.
Question 4:
Item 3 Basic Items – Security. Can you please confirm the requirements of roving security for weekend and holidays? Normally it would be required round the clock if no one is onboard working.
Answer 4:
Security on weekends and holidays will be 24 hours per day even if work is going on the ship.
Question 5:
Item 3.9 Shaft Removal – It states “2. Provide the services of the local ABS surveyor to inspect the tail shaft.” Is that cost to be burdened by NOAA thru the ABS IDIQ?
Answer 5:
The cost for all ABS will be paid for by NOAA through the ABS IDIQ contract.
Question 6:
Item 3.3 paragraph g. pipe penetrations. Please confirm that the intent is to crop and renew all overboard penetrations. We just need clarification that NOAA is not talking about waster pieces.
Answer 6:
Renew from sea valve to the hull. Not just waster pieces.
Question 7:
Item 3.17 Crane Repair – Are you able to confirm there is no Appleton parts GFE. I’m still working with Appleton but typically there are very long lead times with some of their parts.
Answer 7:
There is no GFE for this work item. Contractor to supply all parts.
Question 8:
Item 3.23 Aft Deck – Can you confirm that the tiles are asbestos free? Also, Is there a drawing available for the deck hatch the spec mentions?
Answer 8:
The asphalt deck tiles are asbestos free. The closest information that I have is the attached drawing HB-167 FH62, "Strl Doors, Hatches, Manholes & Scuttles" item number 207 and the attached pictures showing the exterior and interior of the hatch. Included in Amendment 0002
Question 9:
Item 3.22 trawl Winch – Do you have any drawings of the drum sleeve? There is no information in the spec to bid from. It does not call out even the winch model.
Answer 9:
The trawl winches were manufactured by Rapp Marine (now owned by MacGregor). The winches are TWS-10040/36.36 (see attached). Attached are quotes we received from Rapp Marine to have new LeBus sleeves made. The contractor should be able to go directly to LeBus to get quotes. Included in Amendment 0002
Question 10:
Is QP-1 certification required for all preservation? If an independent NACE inspector is available during the preservation work does that change the requirements of QP-1?
Answer 10:
An independent NACE inspector is satisfactory for all preservation work.
Question 11:
What is the expected quantity of liquid in each tank at arrival?
Answer 11:
We cannot answer this question as there are too many variables involved. The ship will try to arrive at the yard with as little liquid loads as possible. Any tanks that are empty will still have anywhere from 20 – 50 gallons of liquid in them. Ship’s force can transfer liquid loads when needed to access to tanks. This process will need to be coordinated between the shipyard and the ship. Most ballast tanks will be full upon arrival. Some fuel tanks will be empty but others may be full. Voids will be empty.
Question 12:
Since multiple solicitations are available for bid at once, if a contractor bids multiple NOAA vessel contracts and is low bidder on two (2) or more, but only has the capability to handle one vessel at a time, how does NOAA intend to make the award?
Answer12:
Per the RFQ, the Government will award a contract resulting from the solicitation to the responsible Contractor whose quote conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. If one contractor is initially determined to be the best value for more than one award, but only has the capability to handle one vessel at a time, this contractor will receive one award. The other award(s) will go the contractor(s) determined to have the next best value.
Question 13:
WI 3.2 - Please provide the docking drawing HB-085 FA 04; the lightship drafts; and an estimation of the vessel draft at arrival.
Answer 13:
Drawing(s) have been added to the specifications HB FY21 Drydock Repair Spec MAR 2020- Rev1. Attached to Amendment 0002.
Question 14:
Please provide the Std Spec MOC-000-1G, latest revision.
Answer 14:
There is not a Std Spec MOC-000-1G. There is a Std Spec AMC-0001F and it is in the attached to Amendment 0002.

The aft propulsion motor air box will need to be moved aft to allow for the removal of the two port generators. Some main seawater piping would need to be disconnected for the air box heat exchanger. I have added some pictures of the air box and other interferences that would need to be removed to allow for the removal of the generators. The pictures are labeled Air Box and Generator Pictures.
