About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for a federal contract opportunity titled "OK FW TSM 10(1) NFH Entrance Road and Parking Improvements" (Contract Number 6982AF27B000002). The document contains 14 questions posed by potential bidders during the advertisement period, with responses dated October 20, 22, and 26, 2026. The questions address critical design and survey issues, including requests for structural bridge load plans, horizontal and vertical coordinate system specifications, survey control points, as-built existing conditions data, grading information, and elevation data for construction layout and staking. The Government's responses indicate that no bridges or helical piles are included in the project, no existing survey control points are available, and the Government will not provide survey-grade design files, as-built survey data, revised grading plans, or deadline extensions. Instead, contractors are directed to reference the Standard Specifications and Construction Requirements (SCR) and FP-24 sections 152 and 109 for construction survey and staking requirements and measurement and payment procedures. One question addresses asphalt mix design specifications, with the answer referring to SCR and FP-24 section 403 for asphaltic concrete requirements. The document does not contain pricing terms, response deadlines, award dates, or set-aside information beyond the contract number and project title.

Questions and Answers During Advertisement

October 20, 2026

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.
