Amendment No. 0002 to Written Specifications and Price Schedule: Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery Surface Water Intake Fish Screens and Fish Passage Project, Phase II Pipeline Rehabilitation

This document is Amendment No. 0002 to the technical specifications and price schedule for the Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery Surface Water Intake Fish Screens and Fish Passage Project Phase II Pipeline Rehabilitation, located in the Columbia Pacific-Northwest region in Washington state. The amendment revises sections related to concrete reinforcing (03 20 00), cast-in-place concrete (03 30 00), earthwork for pipe and structures (31 23 11), and HDPE pressure pipe installation (33 11 18). Key revisions include modifications to measurement and payment requirements, cost allocations, material specifications, and execution procedures. Notably, the amendment clarifies that costs for earthwork for pipe trenches and compacted backfill about pipe trenches are now included in the unit price offered for HDPE Pressure Pipe, whereas previously these costs were listed separately. The amendment also specifies bedding and embedment options including controlled low strength material (CLSM) without reinforced thrust blocks or select material with reinforced thrust blocks.

The revised price schedule includes 24 contract line item numbers (CLINs) for supplies and services, with pricing based on lump-sum or unit price offerings. Major work items include mobilization and preparatory work (CLIN 1), site demolition, asbestos inspection and abatement, electrical system completion, water diversion and care, clearing and grubbing, excavation and backfill for structures, concrete replacement, HDPE pressure pipe installation at 1,768 linear feet, valve vaults, flowmeters, and associated piping. The specification documents establish technical requirements aligned with industry standards including ASTM, AWWA, ACI, and USBR standards. The project requires certified personnel for concrete field testing, pipe laying, heat fusion operations, and compaction work. Offerors must submit complete price schedules as incomplete offers will be considered nonresponsive; pricing will be evaluated based on best value to the Government.
