PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Marcott Coulee Pipeline Solicitation No. 140L3626R0002

Description of Changes - This amendment incorporates the following information:

1. The Government is providing the Questions received from interested offerors and the associated Answers provided by the Government.

Acknowledgement - See Block 11 above regarding how to acknowledge this amendment. The Government must receive the acknowledgement at the place designated for receipt of offers (See Block 8 of the Standard Form 1442).

Third Party – If you have given a copy of the solicitation to someone else, please forward this amendment accordingly.

Questions and Answers

1. Domestic Sourcing Requirements: Could you please confirm if this project falls under the Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act requirements or American Iron and Steel (AIS) provisions?

Yes, see FAR 52.225-9 and FAR 52.225-10.

2. Tracer Wire / Marking: Do the 2-inch HDPE water lines require tracer wire or detectable/warning tape above the pipe in the trench?

For the Marcott Coulee Pipeline project, tracer wire is not required on any of the 2-inch HDPE water lines. Contractors are not obligated to install tracer wire or detectable/warning tape above the pipe in the trench. All installation practices should follow standard procedures, but the inclusion of tracer wire or tape is not necessary for this scope of work.

3. Curb Boxes / Stationary Rods: In the specifications and drawing details, some 1" and 2" curb boxes depict/call for a stationary rod inside, while others do not. Please clarify whether all curb boxes require internal stationary rods or only specific locations.

For all curb boxes installed as part of the Marcott Coulee Pipeline project, any curb box with a depth greater than 24 inches must be equipped with a stationary rod. The stationary rod shall be sized and positioned so that the operator interface is brought to within 24 inches of the top of the curb box, ensuring ease of access for maintenance and operation. This requirement applies to both 1-inch and 2-inch curb boxes as indicated in the project specifications and drawing details. The stationary rod must be securely installed and compatible with the curb box key provisions specified for the project.

4. Curb Box Keys: Are the requested curb box keys intended solely for the top pentagon nut, or should they operate both the top pentagon nut and the stationary rods? If certain curb boxes do not require internal stationary rods, are contractors required to supply additional curb valve keys designed to directly operate the curb valves without stationary rods?

All curb box keys provided for the Marcott Coulee Pipeline project shall be constructed with dual functionality: each key must include a pentagon nut wrench for opening the top of the curb box, PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Marcott Coulee Pipeline Solicitation No. 140L3626R0002 and a long end specifically designed to securely engage the top of the stationary rod. The pentagon nut wrench must be compatible with the standard pentagon nuts specified for the curb boxes, ensuring reliable access and operation. The long end of the key should be of sufficient length and strength to interface with stationary rods installed in curb boxes deeper than 24 inches, as required by project specifications. Keys must be fabricated from durable materials capable of withstanding routine field use and environmental conditions. All keys shall be tested for proper fit and function prior to delivery and installation.
