RFP Instruction at Section L, Section 00 21 16 , Line Item 7 states “Electronic proposals, and their applicable modifications or cancellations, will not be accepted…” However, at Clause under Section 00 21 16 states proposal is to be submitted via “electronic media” Please clarify whether proposal is expected to be submitted hard copy or via electronic means. If via electronic, please amend this clause and the line item 7 stating electronic offers will not be accepted.

7.) Can the Gov’t provide a copy of the attendees list for the site walk?
USACE RESPONSE: See Attachment-1
8.) Wage Determination IL20200018 - Heavy (Dredging and Marine) is included with the RFP. Should this not be Wage Determination IL20200016 - Heavy and Highway? There is no dredging or other marine work upon the Mississippi River or Big Muddy River indicated in the scope of work.
USACE RESPONSE: IL20200016 Heavy Highway is correct (See Attachment-2)
9.) Is a Notice of Intent (NPDES) required to be submitted the State of Illinois?

USACE RESPONSE: No restrictions on work hours or schedule.
11.) What agreements does the USACE or the Levee Districts have to accommodate and mitigate the impact on the residences? Does the Contractor need to provide temporary access to the residences and emergency services? Temporary access could require the construction of temporary roads and ramps outside of the provided construction limits. Which CLIN should include these costs?
USACE RESPONSE: As soon as any haul road shall have served the purpose for which it was constructed, the opening in the existing levee shall be restored to the prescribed grade and section and dressed, fertilized and seeded or sodded. The levee embankment restoration shall be accomplished as specified and as shown on the drawings.
Material used in the construction of the approach ramps of the haul roads shall be removed.

14.) Are any of the repair areas on “Federal Levees”?
USACE RESPONSE: The project limits are on Federal Levees.
15) The technical requirements work plan require that working in the area of the pipeline be addressed. Based on the site visit and our review of the plan sheets there are no slide repairs on this solicitation near the pipeline that crosses the Grand Tower levee. Is this correct?
USACE RESPONSE: Page 14/62 4)a. of work plan does ask for this to be addressed, but you are correct. There are no areas within this contract that will require work near the pipeline that crosses Grand Tower.

USACE RESPONSE: CLIN 0005: Borrow will be required, however it will be hauled from within the project. The work shall be schedule so that excess material from the slide repairs can be utilized with the Type III erosion.

CLIN 2008: No.
