About this file
This is Addendum #1 to an Invitation to Bid issued by the Florida Department of Military Affairs, Construction & Facility Management Office, on behalf of the Florida Army National Guard at Camp Blanding Joint Training Center. The addendum provides clarifications and modifications to the original bidding documents for the CBJTC SR16 Chain Link Fence project (Project Number 224112), with an original invitation to bid date of March 13, 2026, and a bid opening scheduled for April 21, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The project involves removal and replacement of approximately 5,784 linear feet of chain-link fencing, including terminal posts, line posts, barbed wire, and two 30-foot manually operated cantilever gates. The new fencing will be black vinyl, 6 feet high with 1 foot of barbed wire with black vinyl coating, with an alternate bid item (ABI 1) for 7-foot high fencing with identical barbed wire configuration. All fence posts must be set in concrete with horizontal cross bars at the top and tension wire at the bottom, in accordance with USACE FE6-TR-72 Chain-Link Security Fence specifications and CBJTC Fencing Standards.
The addendum addresses eight key questions and clarifications regarding fence specifications, removal procedures, and contractor requirements. The specification calls for Class 2b commercial-grade chain link wire with 9-gauge core wire and polyvinyl chloride-coated steel fabric with 92 grams of zinc coating per square meter in accordance with ASTM F668, with twist top and knuckle bottom selvage configuration. Complete removal of existing posts and concrete footers is required, and grounding is limited to gate posts only, not line posts. A General Contractor license is not mandatory for the project, and no permit is required. The post size specifications vary by fence height: 2-inch line posts and 2.5-inch terminal posts for fences up to 72 inches, and 2.5-inch line posts and 3-inch terminal posts for fences 72 inches and above. All hardware must be domestic due to federal funding under the Build America, Buy America Act. Bidders must submit proposals for both the base bid and the alternate bid item (ABI 1) on separate line items of the proposal form.

Q4. Please confirm if grounding of the fence and gates is to be included.
A4. Grounding of the gate posts are included (NOT Line posts)
Q5. Could you please confirm whether a General Contractor license is mandatory for this project?
A5. No, a GC license is not mandatory.
Q6. Is a permit required.
A6. No, a permit is not required.
Q7. Specs pg 02444-1 calls for 2" line posts and 2-1/2" Terminal posts, and on FE6 Chain Link details show 2-1/2" line posts and 3" terminal posts?
A7. The post size confusion is because they are looking at 2 different fences. We have dealt with this in the past. The table shows “Up to 72” and then it shows 72” and above.
The correct table is the 72” and above.
Q8. Does the hardware need to be domestic or is import acceptable?
A8. Yes, it must be domestic. Due to the money being Federal. (Refer to Section D-4 Buy America Preference (Pub. L. No. 117-58,§§ 70901-52, Title IV—Build America, Buy America Act)
C. You are preparing a bid for a Base Bid and an Alternate Bid Item (ABI 1). There are two separate line items on the proposal form for each bid.
