About this file

This document contains an amendment to a solicitation for repairs to Grub Dam. The amendment provides additional information to interested offerors, including answering a question received about the concrete mix design.

The Bureau of Land Management is seeking offers for repairs to Grub Dam with a period of performance from September 18, 2023 to December 1, 2023. The amendment acknowledges a question was received regarding the concrete mix design in the original solicitation. Specifically, the design submitted did not include the specified pozzolans. The amendment states the absence of pozzolans would be acceptable if a lithium additive is included, as was used in the original dam construction, to mitigate potentially damaging reactions associated with the soils. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment by the specified deadline in order to be considered for the solicitation.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Grub Dam Repairs Solicitation No. 140L3623Q0050

Questions and Answers

1. Please see the attached concrete mix design from Fossum Ready Mix in Glasgow, MT.

See below. Would it be approved? It does not contain the specified pozzolans.

• The absence of pozzolans is acceptable as long as an additive that accounts for potentially damaging reactions associated with the soils is substituted. The original work at Grub Dam mitigated these reactions using a Lithium additive. Utilizing the same design mixture as the original dam contract would be an acceptable alternative to a non-pozzolan mixture. The mixture, as submitted, does not contain the Lithium additive needed for approval.
