5 While reviewing the project documents, I was unable to locate specific details for the mulch type required for the disturbed areas.

As the selection of mulch is dependent on the steepness of the slopes, could you please clarify the following:

Section 157. — SOIL EROSION CONTROL, SEDIMENT

CONTROL, AND STORMWATER POLLUTION

PREVENTION PLAN

Mulch 713.05 (This section was missing).

The FP-14 applies in its entirety to the project and is supplemented by the Special Contract Requirements (SCR) within this Invitation for Bid (IFB).

6 Also, will the Hydraulic seeding and Mulching be a two-step process?

4 Regarding bid items A0860 and B0980 Mulching, Hydraulic Method. Both bid items need to conform to 625.08 and 713.05.

Both of these specification sections have options for the type of hydraulic mulch to be utilized. On WY FLAP NAT 505 (Casper Mtn), WY FLAP 740 (Skyline Drive), and WY FLAP 407 (Kortes Road) have all specified the Bonded Fiber Matrix, which is FP-14 713.05(g). The bonded fiber matrix is a near necessity for revegetation establishment via hydraulic methods, in Wyoming.

Additionally, both WY FLAP NAT 505 and WY FLAP 407 required the us of “Biotic Soil Amendment, Hydraulic Method.”

This is also highly recommended for revegetation success in Wyoming.

Will use please evaluate and clarify the bid items regarding the hydraulic mulching, seeding, and potential need for Biotic Soil Amendment?

Bid the per the FP-14, SCRs, and Plans

7 After digging through the bid documents, we did not see a scheduled pre-bid conference or site visit? Will either of these be happening before the bid date?

The pre-bid conference/site visit took place on November 13, 2025. No additional pre-bid conferences or site visits are planned. The project site is open and can be viewed at any time.

8 Is there anyone locally that could preapprove our rip rap before the bid date? We have some made and stockpiled in our yard in Sheridan. It meets all WYDOT standards and has been used on numerous highway projects. It was also approved as an Army Corp source and used locally in a couple projects. But there is some discussion in the plans about it being river rock and certain color.

We do not pre-approve materials prior to bid opening.

9 Do you know who the CO is going to be?

The Contracting Officer (CO) is Kelly Palmer
