Questions and Government Responses

1. Will the Department of Veterans Affairs be purchasing the replacement receptacles directly? Or will they be using a general contractor to purchase them?

0. RESPONSE: The items in Specification Section 32 30 00 Site Furnishings shall be furnished by the Contractor as a part of this contract.

1. Do you have any product details for the trash & flower vase receptacles?

1. RESPONSE: These are provided in Specification Section 32 30 00 Site Furnishings and drawings.

1. When reviewing the drawings provided is it correct to assume there are several stand alone water locations? And several locations where there will be a new receptacle that will not have water?

2. RESPONSE: The drawings, specifically the Site Plan show orange and blue locations which answers this question.

1. Will space be provided to store the job materials on site? (ie trash receptacles and flower vase receptacles)

3. RESPONSE: Unfortunately space is at a premium and therefore this will not be permissible.

1. Is there electrical service that runs underground near the areas where digging will happen? Who is responsible for “mark out” of existing services? (electric / water)

4. RESPONSE: Contractor is responsible to locate water and electric underground so as to safely perform the work in this project. Coordinate with the cemetery personnel.

1. Do we have to use a specific brand receptacle? Specifications note a specific color but not a brand or model number.

5. RESPONSE: Products must meet the project specifications, and no brand or model number will be provided.

1. Do the bollards need to be finished (painted) similar to the receptacles?

6. RESPONSE: No. Painting of the bollards is not required.

1. What is the purpose of the lock and chains? There is mention of providing locks and chains in the narrative, but they are not reflected on the drawings.

7. RESPONSE: Chain and Locks are not required as part of this project.
