The document addresses contractor inquiries submitted during the advertisement period from October 20 through November 3, 2026.
Key clarifications provided include: no bridges or helical piles are involved in the project; coordinate system and design data information is available in the C sheets of the plans and SCR 102.02A; no existing survey control points are established on the site, and contractors are referred to SCR and FP-24 section 152 for construction survey and staking requirements; the Government will not provide survey-grade, control-based design files or collect as-built survey data; grading information is contained in the typical sections of the plans, with no revised plans with full grading data to be issued by addendum; the bid deadline will not be extended to accommodate additional information; and costs and timing for any required contractor-performed survey control, as-built collection, or design revisions will be handled per SCR and FP-24 section 109 for measurement and payment. Regarding asphalt specifications, contractors are directed to SCR and FP-24 section 403 for requirements. Removal and existing conditions information is available in the A, C, D, and V sheets of the plans. A geotechnical report (222-418A Tishomingo Pavement Report 4-23-26) was added to the sam.gov solicitation with Amendment A001. Existing profiles are not available for the culverts.

Questions Answers 1 Do you have structural plans showing the bridge loads so I can design a helical pile for the project in Tishomingo, OK?
There are no bridges or helical piles on this project.

2 The design appears to be traced over an aerial photograph referenced to the Oklahoma State Plane coordinate system or WGS 84. Please confirm the horizontal datum, coordinate system (including zone), and units used for the design.
Refer to the C sheets in the plans and SCR 102.02A for information on the coordinate system used for design data.
3 Are there existing survey control points on the site that the design points are tied to? If so, please provide their coordinates, descriptions, and locations.
There are no existing survey control points on the project site that the design points are tied to.
4 If no control points were established before design, who is responsible for establishing them? Will the Government or the design engineer provide them, or does the contractor need to?
Refer to SCR and FP-24 section 152 for construction survey and staking requirements.
5 Superimposing design data over an aerial image that is only approximately in State Plane coordinates is not sufficient for survey and layout. Will the Government provide a survey-grade, control-based design file (for example CAD or LandXML) that can be used to stake the work?
No.
6 Will the Government or design engineer collect as-built (existing conditions) survey data on the ground, tied to established control, so the design can be accurately overlaid on the site?
No.
7 Is the engineer of record responsible for tying the design to ground control? Establishing that tie is a design engineering function, not a surveyor's function. Please confirm who will perform it.
Refer to SCR and FP-24 section 152 for construction survey and staking requirements.

8 If control points were set before design, please provide the control data and the survey that supports the design. A surveyor could then use those points to lay out the work.
There are no existing survey control points on the project site that the design points are tied to.
9 The plans do not show grades or grading information. Please provide proposed grades, finished elevations, spot elevations, contours, slopes, and cross-sections.
Refer to the typical sections in the plans for grading information.
10 What vertical datum applies (NAVD 88, for example), and what benchmark(s) should be used for elevation control?
Refer to SCR and FP-24 section 152 for construction survey and staking requirements.
11 Without grading information, no elevation data can be established for layout or staking. Will revised plans with full grading data be issued by addendum?
No.
12 Will the Government extend the bid or submission deadline until this information is provided, so the contractor can price and plan the work accurately?
No.
13 If this information cannot be provided before award, how will the Government handle costs and time for any survey control, as-built collection, or design revisions the contractor must perform?
Refer to SCR and FP-24 section 109 for measurement and payment.

14 Can an S4 64-22 insoluble ODOT approved mix design be used for the Type 1 Asphalt? If not is there a preference of an ODOT approved mix that can be used?
Refer to SCR and FP-24 section 403 for asphalt requirements.

17 Are their profiles available of the remove and replacement of the existing drainage?
Existing profiles are not available for the culverts.
