Question :

1. Can you provide photos of the replaced walers installed between the old king posts?

Answer : YES, See Photos.

2. Are modifications to the tenon design permissible to accommodate the replacements?

Answer: NO – Tenons to match appearance of components replaced in 2016. (See photos)

3. Log Surface Finish: The original logs have a smooth‐faced finish, while replaced logs have a lathe‐turned finish similar to telephone poles. Our proposed log material will be peeled. Is there a specific requirement for the surface finish?

Answer: Surface finish to match 2016 replaced log elements.

4. Wood Treatment Options: Pentachlorophenol treatment is costly but achievable. We are considering copper naphthenate as a more cost‐effective alternative and potentially compliant with future regulations, as Pentachlorophenol is being phased out. Would this alternative treatment be acceptable?

Answer: Treat with Pentachlorophenol as specified to match existing.

1. Performance Timeline: The 150‐day performance timeline does not align with the treatment, kiln drying, and installation requirements. We estimate approximately 22‐25 weeks on site for completion and an additional 12‐16 weeks for material procurement. Can the performance timeline be adjusted to reflect these requirements?

Answer: YES
