Q & A for Amendment 0002 Kortes Elevator Modernization Build

3. The period of performance listed on the solicitation for the Kortes Elevator Modernization is 8/9/23 to 5/1/23. Given the remote location and road closures you mentioned during the teams meeting I was curious if this date could be shifted to a period of time when winter weather wasn’t an issue. We have concerns regarding site accessibility as well as safety for our crews when transiting 60+ miles to and from Casper.

A: The period of performance is listed in F.1 52.221-10 Commencement, Prosecution and Completion of Work. The SF 1442 has been updated to remove the POP and to reflect the current proposal due date.

4. Does the top of the dam have a crane that could be used to hoist old equipment out and new equipment in? Old machine can be broken down but new machine is best left intact and will weight around 4,000 lbs. with a physical dimension of 40”W x 41”H x 41”D.

A: There is a crane at the top of the dam that is used only for placing and removing bulkhead gates on the intake of each penstock. It does not have the mobility to be used for the project. Any lifting means needed will have to be temporarily constructed or brought in for use on the project.

5. 14 21 00 - 21 Section 2.03 (D) requires 2 Cat5 cables but no traveler exists with cat5 cabling due to the wire size and movement of the traveling cable. Would cat5 equivalent cable be accepted?

A: Yes, a Cat5 equivalent can be evaluated and approved for the same use thru the submittal process.

6.14 21 00 - 21 Section 2.02 (G) requires hardware to be installed for security in both the hall and car. Can you provide details of the card reader or conductor type and quantities required?

A: We are not currently requiring any security devices. As far as we know, security devices are not a standard ASME code requirement, however, these should be addressed if they exist. The intent in this section is to have a controller that has the capability to integrate a standalone security and/or access management system via I/O or similar communication for possible future upgrades or requirements. Deviations from this requirement can be proposed in submittal process.

7. There is no mentioned of seismic devices and I wanted to verify that was correct. Typically counterweight ring and string, at a minimum, is required.

A: This location is in SDC (seismic design category) C with and component importance factor of 1.0 (due to the alternate route via stairs). This excludes this installation from ASME 17.1 – 8.4 seismic requirements as we interpret the language. If there is a standard requirement outside of this, those requirements must be satisfied.

8. Do the car top devices need to be in NEMA 4 enclosures? Car top box, door operator, inspection station, etc.

A: Yes, all electrical components on car top devices and those within the shaft shall be NEMA 4 rated.
