Questions and Answers during Advertisement for CO FLAP MES 18(1) 18 Road

August 5, 2024

Questions Answers 1 After adding up all the fence they have I am coming up with

11,045' Almost twice as much as the bid quantity. Do we know why?

Addendum 001 updates notes and quantities to correct and clarify.

2 They want 76'' T-posts according to the detail. 72'' posts would give them 30'' in the ground. 2' in ground is the CDOT Standard.

Is 30'' adequate?

Addendum 001 updates to allow 72” post length with 30” embedment.

3 They show gates on the detail but I don't see gates on the plans or Bid Tab. Am I missing them?

No gates are being replaced as part of the project.

4 They don't have quantities for End and Corner Braces. This leaves a lot to interpretation as far as the overall price of the estimate.

Would they be willing to give a estimate on brace quantities?

Design and locations of brace and corner posts are not quantified or identified in the plans.

5 Can a rainfall erosivity waiver be utilized for a portion of this project?

The contractor is responsible for researching and obtaining the appropriate NDPES permit which will cover the activity outlined in the contract.

6 What is the anticipated start date for this project? Fall 2024. Reference special contract requirements and solicitation for calendar and seasonal restrictions.

7 Does the contractor need to provide a lab trailer for QA and a second one for QC?

Refer to Amendment A0001, and the Notice to Bidders, Pay Item 15401- 0000, Contractor testing on Page A-4 of the solicitation for more information on Contractor-furnished and Government-furnished field laboratories.

8 Will the contractor need to supply a separate field office for the
