The project scope includes mobilization, removal of existing pit latrines, installation of reinforced six-inch Portland cement concrete pavement on granular subbase, pavement markings, parking signage, installation of a precast modular restroom building, site restoration, and parking bumpers. The addendum changes the bid submission deadline from October 1, 2026 to October 8, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., and extends the project completion date from May 4, 2027 to May 14, 2027.

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources reserves the right not to award the contract and will notify all bidders of the award decision promptly after the bid closing date.

The contract is structured on a unit price basis with estimated quantities including one lump sum mobilization item, one lump sum removal item, 53 square yards of reinforced concrete pavement, 16 tons of granular subbase, and individual items for pavement markings, parking signage, precast modular restroom building, site restoration, and parking bumpers. Proposals must be lump sum bids with no alternates, qualifications, or reservations; unit prices prevail in case of inconsistencies with the bid total. Successful bidders will be bound by a 45-day offer validity period from the proposal deadline and must enter into a contract upon acceptance by the Department. The contractor must complete all work including defective material or workmanship replacement at no cost to the Department and provide a one-year guarantee from the date of final acceptance. The Department will withhold up to 3% of payments consistent with Iowa Code Chapter 573 and requires monthly estimates for projects extending beyond one month, with no estimate less than five hundred dollars.

This Proposal will become void if not accepted by the DEPARTMENT within 45 days of the deadline for submission of proposals described in the General Information and Instructions to Bidders for this project.

Contract and supplemented as may be necessary by the DEPARTMENT, shall provide for the completion of the work specified herein.

The omission of specific reference to any minor items of material or work reasonably necessary to provide a complete project, will not release the CONTRACTOR from the responsibility of furnishing or doing the items omitted.

The CONTRACTOR shall leave the site free and clean of all construction equipment, materials, and rubbish. The CONTRACTOR shall replace any defective material or workmanship in the construction at no cost to the DEPARTMENT, and shall guarantee the construction for a period of one year from the date of the Department’s final acceptance.

ARTICLE 3 - TIME OF COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION

The time of commencement of work under this contract shall be within a reasonable period of time after the preconstruction conference as approved by the Department. The date of completion of the work under this contract shall be: 5/14/2027.

ARTICLE 4 - BASIS OF PAYMENT

The DEPARTMENT shall make payment within 30 days of receipt of a payment request which is approved as payable by the Department, on this contract as is indicated below, by one of the following methods:

1. Lump Sum Basis- This section is not applicable to this contract. Except for adjustments as provided for herein, the

DEPARTMENT shall pay to the CONTRACTOR, for the performance of work, the lump sum of $____________, hereinafter called the Contract Sum. The Contract Sum shall be equitably adjusted to cover changes in the work ordered by the DEPARTMENT, but not shown on the drawings or required by the specifications. Such increases or decreases in the Contract Sum shall be determined by agreement between the DEPARTMENT and the CONTRACTOR.

2. Unit Price Basis- This section is applicable to this contract. The DEPARTMENT shall pay to the CONTRACTOR the unit price amount stated with respect to each item of work on the attached schedule for the total number of units each item of work completed. The number of units shown on the attached schedule is approximate only, and the final payment shall be made for the actual number of units that are incorporated into or made necessary by the work covered by this contract. Should the number of units of completed work of any individual item shown on the attached schedule vary by more than twenty percent (20%) from the number of units stated, either the DEPARTMENT or the CONTRACTOR may request a revision of the unit price for the item so affected, but such changes shall not exceed 10% of the total Contract amount. Both parties agree that under such conditions an equitable revision of the price shall be made. Changes that cannot be classified under any of the contract units may be performed at mutually agreed upon unit prices, or on a lump sum basis.

The Department, under this Contract, shall reserve the right to withhold up to 3% consistent with Iowa Code Chapter

573. The Contractor may invoice the Department only for work completed. If the work extends over a period of more than one month, the DEPARTMENT may, upon request by the CONTRACTOR, make written estimates of the value of materials complete in place and the work performed. Estimates shall be on a monthly basis or on a longer period of time mutually agreed upon. No estimate, except the final estimate, shall be for less than five hundred dollars ($500). The estimates shall be figured at the contract unit prices for contracts on a unit price basis or on a mutually agreed upon percentage of the total work completed for contracts on a lump sum basis. Each estimate shall be filed in the form of a claim against the DEPARTMENT. Estimates are approximate only, and shall be subject to correction in the first estimate rendered following the discovery of an error in any previous estimate. Should a reasonable doubt arise as to the integrity of any part of the work completed prior to the final acceptance and payment, the department will deduct from the first estimate rendered, after the discovery of such work, an amount equal in value to the defective or questioned work. Further, such work will not be included in a subsequent estimate until the defects have been remedied or the causes for doubt removed. Within a reasonable period of time after satisfactory completion of the project, a final inspection of the work will be made by the DEPARTMENT to determine compliance with the contract, plans and specifications, and to submit a final estimate. All prior partial estimates and payments shall be subject to correction in the final estimate and payment. The CONTRACTOR shall sign the final estimate form acknowledging acceptance of the amount stated.
