Solicitation 140P5420Q0023‐ Q & A

1. Are there As‐Built drawings available or could you provide the Construction Plan Set? Yes, please see attached. SAJU Drawing 393/60005.

2. Please provide junction boxes quantity to be replaced as part of line Item 2, Remove and

Replace Electrical Wiring Circuit for Lighting. I believe we counted 26 boxes. Let’s say 26 boxes and we’ll replace the worst of the j‐boxes.

3. Please confirm if broken concrete posts will be replaced by NPS before lighting installation works initiates. The contractor can assume that the concrete post will be replaced or fixed by

NPS before the lighting installation.

4. If due to unseen conditions of the underground wiring to be replaced they cannot be removed, should we reconsider to reroute wiring? For providing a bid proposal for this project, please assume that the cable can be installed in the existing conduit with a reasonable amount of effort. If after starting construction the cable can’t be installed, we can discuss other options and contract modification.

5. What is the procedure to coordinate work at The Fortaleza connection point? Coordinate with

NPS to provide notice to Fortaleza to turn off power and lock out. Contractor can confirm lock out of electricity with NPS. Access to the governor’s house is very restricted and we need to take that into account into our timeline. NPS doesn’t have problems with access to Fortaleza.

NPS has had the electricity turned off numerous times in the past. Per our agreement with

Fortaleza, Fortaleza should be motivated to complete this project because they’re paying for the electricity, and these new lights should reduce the electricity usage.

6. Quantity and material of the junction boxes to be replaced. 26 j-boxes. Min 12” x 12” or 12” diameter, plastic (stainless or aluminum acceptable too), rated for vehicular loading, junction box.

It is possible to include photos of junction boxes? Of the existing j-boxes or proposed new j-boxes?

7. What is the gauge of the wires between the breaker panel and the last light without power? See as-built drawings for gauges of existing wiring. However, gauges for new wiring may be reduced if there is a reduction in amperage with new LED lights.

8. The in-Ground flush-mounted light fixture must be color-tunable? Yes. COR approved equivalent to flush-mounted light fixtures at El Morro.

9. There are project layouts or drawings available? There are only as-built drawings. There are no new construction drawings.
