| # | QUESTION | RESPONSE |
| 1 | Is the contractor required to remove the existing helical coils or can they be cut flush and left insitu to minimize erosion and associated impact to the area? | All existing piles must be removed. |
| 2 | Will new helical coils be required due to the anticipated weight of the new boardwalk? Can pylon-barbs be used instead of helical coils? | Helical pile requirements are shown in the Contract Documents. Piles are required for multiple reasons, including but not limited to: seismic load, lateral load, flooding, live loads and soil conditions. In addition, helical piles are required based on the constructability and minimizing disturbance within the Wilderness area. |
Pylon-barbs are not acceptable.
| 3 | Is the mesh required to be 416 stainless steel? | Wire mesh requirements are listed in the Project Manual Section 057300. Wire mesh is aluminum. Fasteners are Type 316 stainless-steel. |
| 4 | How much downtime is expected on a monthly basis due to weather delays and high flooding? | See Project Manual Section 013218, 2.2.B.7.d.3). Weather Calendar.

| 7 | Will contractor be allowed to drive pylons using the water-jet method? | Helicals must be driven per the manufacturers recommendations. Water jetting is not allowed. |
| 9 | What is the elevation on boardwalks from ground to board, and from ground to top rail? | Elevations of the boardwalks vary through the sections and terrain. Low boardwalk has a maximum deck height of 24-28 inches off the existing ground. High boardwalk varies. Elevations of the high boardwalk decking are shown on the plans. |
