The roofing material was noted to have been replaced in the last 10 years, and is referred to in the "Non‐Asbestos Materials" section of the Summary Report; however, it does not state the built‐up roofing known to be below the newer insulation and roofing was sampled. If the entire roofing is to be removed to the deck, can additional roofing samples be taken of the original built up roofing materials, or do we assume it is

Asbestos Containing BUR?

Answer Pending

39 General

It is noted in the SCA Environmental Report that all asbestos (including trace amounts or materials of 1%) be abated, with disposal of waste as non‐hazardous materials. This would allow abatement contractors to remove all the stucco layering, to the wire lathe.

Answer Pending

It is noted that lead based paint, and asbestos materials exist throughout the interior walls;

Although some samples were noted as either non‐asbestos, or trace, and some paint as

"lead containing", only, the SCA Report states all interior plaster and asbestos should be abated by asbestos certified individuals, per

Contract Line Items. This section defines various contract line items that are not identified in the Contract Price Schedule.

The Contract Price Schedule contains only one Contract Line Item Number, No. 1, Rehabilitate Exterior Envelope of the Old

Santa Fe Trail Building and Annex Building.

Question: Is the NPS going to amend the

Contract Price Schedule to correlate with

Section 01 27 00?

Answer Pending

61 General

We feel introducing a torch to a building of this historic significance, age construction would be very risky. Would the government entertain a modified roof system that is cold applied that meets the exact specification of the modified membrane?

62 General

Would the government entertain alternate roof systems that meet the performance and warranty requirements of the specification?

Answer Pending

63 General

Sheet 13, note 1 indicates: “Demo existing surface‐mounted conduit. Exercise care w/roofing demo as other conduit reportedly exists w/in existing insulation. Verify extents of conduit demo w/CO prior to roofing and conduit demo”.Can the government please identify what utilities are known to exist within the existing insulation?

Answer Pending

General

Can the government please confirm the extent of systems on the 2nd floor for which we will be required to provide temporary protection? As we did not get to inspect the rooms, would the government be able to provide a standard that all bidders should use? For example, should we account for computer and electronic equipment in every room, or will these be relocated and stored in a central location by NPS?

Answer Pending

General

What is the directive and specifications to repair and or replace any compromised adobe units after the removal of the existing stucco surface materials? A repair adobe soil mix design, adhesion products, and admixtures will play an important role in the repairing of compromised and possible damaged adobes and possible deteriorated and damaged wall areas in the existing adobe wall surfaces. The repair products and soils could be part of the materials specifications provided or does the field contractor supply this information? Note: one would expect that we may see more issues of poor materials at the parapets and around the existing the windows and doorways after the stucco removal, as well as areas that may have encountered moisture and certain issues over the years.

Answer Pending

General

Is it possible to get the specifications for the earth tone color specified for the canale dissipater units?

Answer Pending

General

In the details there is no reinforcing shown in the canale dissipater units. Being there will be moisture and at times an extreme freeze thaw condition at the dissipaters, we want to confirm there is no reinforcing included in the proposed construction.

Answer Pending

General

On page C‐501, detail 1‐C501 please confirm that the color concrete is only under the provided placed 2" ‐4" rock units. In the upper detail, the right side arrow points to what I presume to be the re‐compacted existing soil surround.

General

In the notes, page C‐501 calls for verification of the depth of the foundation by the contractor, which is unknown. This work is for the installation of the new dissipaters on the east side of the building. Is this exploratory work a line item cost or is it to be included in the work scope and proposed cost?

Answer Pending

Answer Pending

General

Abatement Summary of Work notes: Removal and disposal of rodent waste throughout the crawlspace tunnels. Is this work additional and not associated with this project? Rodent waste cleaning was noted in S501 related to roof work. Should we assume all areas that are accessible will need abatement?

Answer Pending

General

Exterior stucco removal requires full isolation per the specifications. Will each separate enclosure need to have a final air clearance following a visual inspection by the IH

Consultant? Asbestos Summary of Work directs each enclosure to have final TEM samples. Since no public laboratories have

TEM capabilities in NM, the impact on cost, productivity and schedule need to be considered.

Answer Pending

General

40 to 50 exterior stucco areas were sampled for asbestos content. Of those only a handful reported "trace". In reviewing the lab sample results attached to the solicitation, the finish or color coats all layers need to be removed as asbestos containing within a full enclosure. The mud coat and non‐colored cementous base coats need to be removed but not as asbestos materials? Will the NPS allow for abatement of just the layers of hot material and leave the first generation grey coat (scratch and Brown coat)?

Answer Pending

General

The specs state that we should assume 1300 linear feet of adobe replacement at top of parapet. In order that the NPS should receive pricing for this line item that is apples to apples, could the NPS be more specific in terms of the number of adobe bricks? For example, if one contractor assumes the top 3 rows 2 wide of replacement = 1 SF per LF, then we’re looking at approximately 8000

Adobes. Whereas if another contractor assumes 1 row, 2 wide then it’s approximately 2600 adobe bricks. Please clarify.

Answer Pending

General

The plans and specs indicate 4750 linear feet of adobe crack repair. Should we include pricing for Adobe “stitching or as defined in spec as Crack Mortar Repair: install helical anchors to stitch across crack plane. If so what quantity should be assumed?

General

The specs state that methods of demolition must be constrained to minimize damage to the existing adobe masonry. Please define or clarify “constrained”. Is There a specific spec for constrained removal or a sequencing plan? Will this need to be included in a Historic Treatment Plan?

Answer Pending

79 General Can the mud plaster coat be disposed of onsite?

Answer Pending

General

What is the quantity of vigas to be repaired in conference room? It appears to be only one according to sheet 52?

General

The property boundary on the south side of the building restricts work access, with numerous trees between the building and the property line, limiting equipment access to the building for movement of demolition and new construction materials. Please confirm that the contractor will be allowed to encroach on the neighboring property to access all areas of the perimeter of the building.

Answer Pending

86 General

Please confirm the contractor will be allowed to use wheeled equipment such as skid steer loaders and forklifts on all sides of the building, considering final grading and re‐ seeding will be completed to restore the property at completion.

Answer Pending

General

Will stucco work be performed on the site walls for this project? If so, will it be the same system as the structural walls (remove and replace) or just a patch and color to match the new system on the building?

Answer Pending

General

There is a note on Sheet G003 – Staging Plan:

“(E) 6’ – 0” + wall to serve as construction fencing if allowed by Contracting Officer otherwise provide for fully fenced site.” For pricing purposes, we need to know if we will be allowed to use the existing wall to enclose part of the staging area or if we will need to provide additional fencing which would run inside the existing wall.
