Can we request an extension of the due date of

January 7 to January 14.

For the last two+ weeks, many of our vendors have taken Christmas and New Years Week off.

So many of the vendors will be fully back in the office on January 6, - too late to give bids back to us in a timely matter.

This will be addressed under Amendment

A001 12/30/2024

8 X We are requesting a one week bid day extension if possible.

This will be addressed under Amendment

A001 12/30/2024

9 X

Does FHWA WL have completed and approved

ESA, 404 or other approved NEPA permits for the project? If so, can they be provided? This is in relation to the request for ESA reporting, CR reporting and compliance with 404 requests stated in section 100 of the spec. Consultants who would provide these services required in the spec need to know if they will be required to report on guidance already provided in a prior approved permit or complete the full permitting process themselves.

In accordance with Subsection 107.01, Government-obtained permits have been provided under Section H of the solicitation. Please submit bids according to the solicitation documents.
