About this file
This document is Addendum #3 to RFP 24-012 for an AMI Water Meter Replacement project issued by the City of Commerce, Georgia. The addendum addresses questions submitted by potential bidders, including clarification that the contractor will not be required to cut holes in metal lids for transmitter installation, confirmation that Phase 1 installations will be in one general area, and details about customer-owned equipment such as shut-off valves, pressure reducing valves, and backflow devices. The addendum also revises the Summary of Work section to remove the requirement for the contractor to drill holes in existing meter box lids.
The project involves the replacement of water meters throughout the City's system. The Owner will provide any new water meter boxes, lids, pressure reducing valves, and backflow devices required. The addendum notes the City anticipates a very small percentage of instances where customer-owned equipment will need to be relocated to accommodate the meter replacements. Contractors are instructed to refer to the project specifications for details on landscaping impacts and public notification requirements.

ADDENDUM #3
RFP 24-012
AMI Water Meter Replacement
This addendum is being issued to address questions submitted on RFP 24-012:
Addendum No. 3A – Questions and Answers
Q1. Will the contractor be required to cut holes in any metal lids for transmitter installation?
A1. No. Refer to PROJECT MATERIALS AND STANDARDS Item B
Q2. Will Phase 1 installations be in one general area? (Not spread out throughout the system) A2. See attached Route excel sheet as provided with RFP documents.
Commerce GA AMI WMRP Routes.xlsx
Q3. Are there currently any customer shut off valves or PRV located inside the current meter box? If a backflow is required at these locations will the customer shut off or PRV be required to be reinstalled and will a valve box be provided for installation behind the meter box? What percentage should we expect to encounter? I would consider providing a line item based on a high percentage
A3. Refer to PAYMENT page 35 C. WATER METER REPLACEMENT. The City of Commerce anticipates a very small percentage of incidences where the Customer PRV and/or Customer Shut-off valve is required to be relocated to complete water meter replacement and/or backflow installation. Owner will furnish PRV’s, backflow devices, and any new water meter boxes and lids.
Q4. Is the contractor required to remove and replace flowers, plants and shrubs or notify the homeowner to remove said landscape? Commerce Ordinance Sec 78-8 (1) states customer shall be liable for keeping meter box unobstructed and accessible at all times….
A4. Refer to SUMMARY OF WORK Page 27 H. LAWNS AND LANDSCAPE
Q5. Has the OWNER considered the implications of installing backflows on houses that do not have expansion tanks on hot water heaters. This will create a closed system on the customer side that will increase pressure and the potential for leaks and breaks. Giving notice to these homeowners will be imperative to avoid conflict.
A5. See SUMMARY OF WORK page 27 J. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
Addendum No. 3B – Revision to Summary of Work page 26
Remove stroked out wording from the paragraph:
R. EXISTING METER BOXES AND LIDS. The Contractor may reuse existing meter boxes and lids granted these materials meet the City standard for the appropriate size meter installation and are in good working condition having no cracks, breaks, or damages. The Contractor will be required to drill appropriate size circular holes in existing cast iron and plastic lids to receive radio read transmitter. Owner will inspect all reused boxes and lids prior to installation to make final determination of reusability.
