Amendment No. 0003

Questions/Clarifications

Bidders can send written questions or inquiries for clarification to: eflhd.contracts@dot.gov.

Questions can be submitted at any time, however questions submitted within 7 days of the proposal due date may not be answered in time for the bidder to properly incorporate the responses into their bid.

Question 1: The asphalt companies are asking if they can us the VDOT asphalt specs instead of DOT asphalt spec. The quantity of asphalt for this project is small (135 tons) and US DOT asphalt specs will be very expensive for a small batch.

Response: The Contract allows for a VDOT approved mix design, currently approved for the year of use, to be used on ALL EFL projects. It must be submitted and approved through the submittal process during construction.

Question 2: Regarding the price of Diesel fuel and Asphalt Oil----We would like to use a VDOT approved price index for diesel and asphalt. The price of oil is increasing rapidly due to the world-wide oil emergency restrictions, https://virginiadot.org/business/const/indices-asphalt.asp.

The proposed index would be an adjustment after March 31.

Response: Project does not include provisions for fuel price adjustment or asphalt binder price adjustment.

Question 3: Could we obtain approval for a short (20 mins) visit to the sites for quick field measurements before the official site visit?

Response: No. Interested bidders will have the opportunity for data collection during the site visit.
