Answer 3: Yes

Question 4: What will the turnaround time be for the Owner to decide what repairs, if any, found during the inspection will need to be performed?

Answer 4: It is estimated, and a good faith effort will be made to provide a response within

48 hours of notification to the COR and CO.

Question 5: Will the contract time continue to run while the Owner makes their decision?

Answer 5: Yes.

Question 6: If there are repairs to be made, will an extension in the contract time be made to account for materials acquisition, fabrication, delivery, and installation since the repair work will need to be performed prior to the application on of the new tank liner so the new liner is not damaged during the repair process?

52.243-5, Changes and Changed Conditions and per the solicitation, Page 7, Paragraph G, Contract

Administration Data, (d).

Question 7: It is our understanding that temporary a 5,000 gal tank and a 2,500 gal tank should be used and can be filled by the local sources.

Answer: Yes. A temporary power supply would be needed.

Question 10: Will the NPS require water quality testing during the temporary usage period?

Answer 10: The water filling the temporary tanks, from the supply line will not need to be tested.

Any products used will need to be NSF/ANSI

Potable Water Certified.

Question 11: Is there a need for any filtering or constant disinfection?

Answer 11: If the water that is filling the temporary tanks is from the governments supply, then no. Be sure that all other supplies and equipment are NSF/ANSI certified and clean before installing. If there are any questions while performing onsite, the contractor will be able to contact the CO representative.

Question 12: We understand that we need to perform bacteriological testing when finished.

Can we have a copy of what the NPS permit is so we know if we are meeting the requirements?

Answer 12: No permit is required. Two consecutive samples will be sent to the State Health

Department and must be free of bacteria.

Question 13: Can the water just be drained to the ground locally to the tanks, does piping or hoses need to be employed to direct it to a different location, or does the water need to be trucked off?

Answer 13: The tank located at Tyler Bend can be drained to the ground. The tank located at

Buffalo Point cannot be drained directly to the ground and the contractor will need to decide if piping or hoses will need to be used or if the trucking method is used. Piping and hoses is recommended, but the choice of trucking or piping and hoses is the bidders choice.
