Yes, The due date is now September 12th

Page 6 of 70 indicates that completed Exhibit’s A, B, D and E should be placed in Volume II. Page 9 of 70 indicates Exhibit’s a, B, D and E should be placed in Volume I.

What volume should they be in?

They should be in both sections.

Please clarify that proposal is to be emailed.

Page 14 of 70 indicates that Volume II should be separated by tabbed dividers.

This proposal should be emailed only to John.Mignogna@va.gov. The order of the documents should flow in order as requested in the RFP but there does not need to be blank page dividers included.

In the specifications and the drawings, it references putting a shed over the HVAC equipment on the roof. Hasn’t this work been completed under a separate contract?

As noted in the Pre-Bid Clarification, “Clarification of Note #2, For this project there is work on 4NE Roof (Mechanical/Electrical and related), but the new mechanical enclosure was awarded via separate project already underway and will be complete prior to mobilization for this contract. MEP work will also be in adjacent spaces to the site as needed for utility routing and tie-ins.”

There are conflicting specification requirements for the above ground water, copper type K.

The water distribution specifications in Division 22 job specifications call for Copper, Type K -solder up to 2” and 2-1/2” -6” grooved.

The Materials list on the plumbing set drawings P001 line #4 calls out for domestic water supply piping located above the finished floor Shall be pro-press copper piping system.

Please advise on which specification we are to follow.

Per the COR – “it is now VA standard to Propress up to 2” K copper and Groove 2 ½” and larger” mailto:John.Mignogna@va.gov
