X x x x The purpose of this amendment is to clarify the bid schedule as per the attached.

All other terms and conditions remain the same.

Question We are in receipt of Amendment #4 for the subject project. The new Bid Schedule provided with Amendment #4 is a bit confusing. Option #1 appears to be the complete project with separate breakdowns in Part A & B. Bid Alternative Deduct 0001A States:

“All work in the Base Bid minus any work, labor, profit, and overhead related to Alternate 1 on sheet M000T for 2 EA 120-ton air cooled rented chiller units (NOTE: rented chillers are still required and should be included in the Chillers bid).”

Does this mean we should?

· Include the total cost for (2) 120-ton temporary chillers in Base Bid – Part A & B, so we can show a deduct for 0001A and still have the cost included to complete the “Restore Cooling Capability” project when you accept the deduct?

· Include the total cost for (2) 120-ton temporary chillers, splitting the cost between Base Bid – Part A & B and show $0 amount for deduct 0001A, since we need the temporary chillers to complete both projects?

· Include the total cost for (2) 120-ton temporary chillers in Base Bid – Part A only, show the total cost to deduct the chillers in 0001A and if the VA exercises the deduct, the VA will provide all temporary chillers as required to complete the projects.

Answer: Include the cost for the 2 EA rented chiller units as the base bid for the Cooling Capacity project and show it as a deduct on the towers project.

The VA is not supplying temporary chillers at all.
