About this file
This document is an amendment to a solicitation for the immediate repair and rehabilitation of a NASA access bridge. The amendment revises the special contract requirements, plans, provides responses to bidder questions, and reschedules the bid opening.
The special contract requirements are revised to add protections for threatened and endangered bat species, restrict work during active bat season without an approved exclusion system, and require a bat exclusion system. The plans are revised to add a pay item for a bat exclusion system. Responses are provided to bidder questions regarding the work restrictions and bat exclusion requirements. The bid schedule is revised to include the new pay item for the bat exclusion system, and the bid opening is rescheduled to November 16, 2023 at 2:00 PM EST. The solicitation is issued by the Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division of the Federal Highway Administration for NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

SCR changes
Provide a specialty contractor or biologist experienced in performing bat exclusions to prepare and implement a "Bat Exclusion Management Plan".
Install bat exclusion devices on the structure prior to beginning work on the structure. Address or include the following in the plan:
(1) Procedures for assessing the existing structure to identify potential bat roosting areas;
(2) Identifies and outlines entry and exit point(s);
(3) Process for selecting appropriate exclusion devices and methods based on the specific characteristics of the project site;
(4) Timing of device installation and removal to comply with the specified time period;
(5) Methodology for securing all identified openings, preventing bats from entering;
(6) Methodology for monitoring the effectiveness and maintenance of the exclusionary system during the specified time period; and
(7) Identifies the individuals responsible for implementing, monitoring, and maintaining the plan and exclusion devices.
Maintain all exclusion devices throughout work on the structure. Immediately repair or replace damaged, malfunctioning, or altered exclusion devices that could allow reentry of bats. Ensure repairs are conducted by a qualified specialty contractor or experienced biologist.
If exclusion devices are not repaired in a timely manner, the CO will provide notification the devices are not in compliance with the contract. If the Contractor fails to bring the exclusion devices into compliance within a 24-hour period, the CO may assess a reduction in payment to the Contractor of $2,500 per day. The CO may continue to assess the reduction in payment until the items are corrected. This reduction in payment will be subtracted from the Contractor’s progress payments and will be unrecoverable. Use of this reduction in payment does not waive the CO’s right to suspend the work in whole or in part according to Subsection 108.05.
Maintain records of the site assessment, selection, installation, operation, maintenance, and effectiveness assessments of the exclusionary system during the specified time period.
Remove the exclusion devices upon completion of construction. Notify the CO if bats, bat remains, or new evidence of roosting is found.
