FOUS Water Waste System Improvement Ques�ons for Solicita�on # 140P6324B0004

Ques�on #1: If the sewer laterals that were previously installed are not visible, is the contractor responsible for exploratory excava�on as part of the bid or would this be a T&M change order? If it is to be part of the base contract, what bid item would you like it under for the schedule of values?

Answer: Approximately half of the drain field chambers have been installed. Depth of exis�ng chambers are at 24 inches and are iden�fied on the plans. The contractor will be responsible for carefully opening the ends of the drain field lines to expose them and �e them into the overall drain field system as show on the plan set. The contractor will be required to expose the ends (eight in total) to allow connec�on to the connector piping. The government es�mates the contractor will u�lize two to three days for digging work using a backhoe bucket where approximately 24 square feet per end trench will be needed. The government will provide addi�onal measurements and GPS readings (within 1-3 feet) taken of the exis�ng work prior to onsite work commencing. This work should be included in the contractor’s firm fixed price base contract lump sum bid. Connec�ng the exis�ng drain field chambers shall be under the “Drain Field with Insulated Manhole” schedule of values item details.

Ques�on #2: It is stated under Sec�on 16420 Submersible Grinder Pumps and Controls, 2.2 Pump Control Panel, O. Panel Indicator Lights, that 4 addi�onal bulbs for each size bulb used in the panel door is required. We use LED colored lights for our panel door indicator lights that have a long lifespan, htps://new.abb.com/products/1SFA611621R1042/mlbl-04g , will you s�ll require (4) bulbs of each size and color if LED is to be used instead? The top alarm light as it is an LED fixture, spec is calling for (2) spare bulbs, but these come as whole units and last for a very long �me as well.

Answer: Please provide spare bulbs as per specifica�on. LED lights will be considered “or equal”.
