The closing date and time of the Solicitation is also hereby changed to 05-28-2024 at 5:00 PM CT.

Note: The following information clarifies some erroneous information found in the original Specifications and Drawings for this project as well as further clarifies VA’s answer to a question that was answered in Amendment 0001. Furthermore, the VA is extending the date and time of quotes due to 5/28/2024 at 5:00 PM Central Time.

Clarification 1: The Specifications and Drawings that were attachments to the original Solicitation contain at a few erroneous references to “Fort Mead.” Fort Mead, nor any work mentioned with respect to Fort Mead, contained in either the Specifications or Drawings, is correct, and should be DISREGARDED. Fort Mead is NOT a part of this project.

Clarification 2: Below is a Contractor question and VA answer from Amendment 0001. Also below is the Government’s Clarified Answer.

Original Questions 3: Because of existing pipes with Asbestos on them, Per Spec Insulation will not fit due to clearance.

Original Government Answer: (If question is understood) After the asbestos is removed insulation should fit.

How Clarified: Common industry-standard fiberglass pipe insulation will fit any of the pipes in this project. Furthermore, it not anticipated by VA that any pipes will not have sufficient clearance for new common industry-standard fiberglass pipe insulation after asbestos containing insulation is removed. Pipe sizes are noted in the Drawings attachment. The photos contained in the Drawings further clarify the current situation. Contractors are encouraged to closely review the Specifications (specifically see Section 23 07 11 HVAC and Boiler Plant Insulation, page 106) and Drawings that were attachments to the original Solicitation. The average ambient air temperature in the pipe spaces is estimated to be 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
