1. I reviewed the report posted to Sam.gov concerning asbestos. This drawing portion of the report is very difficult to follow. I am not sure what to do with this. So, my question is that it appears there are no ACM in the actual existing clinic area. However, there is some in the basement. The entire hospital shows asbestos scattered throughout. We are only to get pricing on the asbestos in the areas that we will be working, correct? The asbestos outside of the women's clinic we can disregard. Now some trades will have to go into other areas of the hospital to make connections. The drawing is so confusing I can't tell if there is asbestos or not in some of these areas.

RESPONSE: The bids should be based on the plans. If asbestos is determined to be present, that will be handled as a modification.

2. The question is referring to the required fire alarm testing. The answer given was specific to the medical gas piping recertification and testing. (Reference RFI 21).

RESPONSE: The fire alarm will need to be tested at the end of the project. During the commissioning of the project.

3. The question is referring to the existing pneumatic tube system manufactured by

Swisslog Healthcare that is located in existing room BC1224 and is assumed to be tied to the system that serves the main Hospital. The answer given refers to HVAC pneumatic tubing, not the Swisslog Pneumatic Tube System? Swisslog systems are proprietary and sole source and, if included in the Project Scope, will require their direct involvement including reprogramming the system that is to remain in service in the

Hospital. Currently, the Swisslog system is not addressed in the Plans and

Specifications. (Reference RFI 56).

RESPONSE: Swisslog tube system is to be relocated and all associated piping to be adjusted to make the system operational. Contractor will include a new power feed from the breaker panel to the Swisslog tube system. Tube system will be relocated to the Med room on the new drawings between the Column and the adjacent wall. Wall to be furred out to accommodate the system.

4. Can any info be provided on why the asbestos information was included in the latest

Amendment? Regarding the file “ACM_Drawings.pdf” it is difficult to impossible to tell where the areas labeled as “basement” and “sub-basement” are with respect to the plans we already have. The 1st in that same file indicates that the work area is “new construction”. I assume this means they did not even bother testing and that there is no

ACM present. 2nd Floor indicates “non ACM Red Speckled Tile”. Since no asbestos was indicated in the originally provided scope, the specs, or the drawings up until now, getting this info a few days before bids has us digging in to see where there is asbestos abatement scope only to find out there may be none at all. If that is the case, could the government clear that up and state succinctly that there is no abatement expected on this project? The provided info only added confusion, not clarity.

RESPONSE: The bids should be based on the plans. If asbestos is determined to be present, that will be handled as a modification.

5. What ceramic tile/porcelain tile sizes do you want priced?

RESPONSE: Tiles: mosaic tiles floor- 9”x9”; porcelain/ceramic tile wall- 12”x18”; For additional information regarding tiles, please refer to specifications 09 30 13 Part 2.
