B08-Amend-0001_0001.docx

This is an amendment to Solicitation 140P4326R0014 documenting government responses to six Requests for Information (RFIs) submitted by potential contractors. The RFIs and responses address clarifications regarding the scope and specifications of the Mogan Cultural Center bathroom rehabilitation project at Lowell National Historical Park in Lowell, Massachusetts.

The government's primary clarification across multiple RFI responses is that the solicitation covers ONLY the bathroom renovations at the Mogan Cultural Center, located at 40 French Street, Lowell, MA 01852. The government explicitly states that references to the Boott Cotton Mills and Boott Transformer Relocation are not part of this solicitation and should be deleted from all contract documents. Specifically, RFI responses clarify that Keynote 4 on sheet E9 of the drawings—which references electrical routing from a mechanical room disconnect switch to a kitchen junction box at Boott Cotton Mills—is outside the project scope. Contractors asking questions about routing distances, floor transitions, and scaled plans related to Boott Cotton Mills were directed to resubmit any inquiries with specific references to the Mogan Cultural Center bathrooms and corresponding specification or drawing references. This amendment ensures all bidders have aligned understanding that the work consists solely of selective demolition and new construction including electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fire protection, and general construction necessary for the bathroom renovations to comply with applicable building codes and ABA Accessibility Standards, with an estimated project value between $500,000 and $1,000,000.
