RFP Section VI “Non-Price Factors,” Factor 4: Safety, subparagraph a states: “joint venture, the Offeror shall submit separate DART rates for the specified five (5) CY for each contractor who is part of the partnership/joint venture.” RFP Section VI “Basis of Evaluation,” Non-Price Factor 4: Safety provides charts that correlate DART rate and TRIR rate to level of risk. Since a joint venture Offeror will be submitting two or more DART and TRIR rates for each year (one for each contractor who is part of the joint venture), it could be possible for one member firm to have a different risk level than the other.

How will the Government evaluate and assign risk levels for joint venture Offerors? For example, will they be averaged between both Offerors for each year?

In accordance with the RFP, please look at page 18 Non-Price Factor 4:

"The Government is seeking to determine that the Offeror has consistently demonstrated a commitment to safety and that the Offeror plans to properly manage and implement safety procedures for itself and its subcontractors. The evaluation will collectively consider the DART rate, TRIR rate, Technical Approach to Safety, and other sources of information available to the Government as part of such collective evaluation."

The 2015 EA states on page 7-1, “All construction activities would be conducted from the shoreside, using a crane with sufficient reach to reduce anchor and line-related impacts to fish and wildlife resources." Although the 2016 SEA does not include this language in Sect on 7, it does not explicitly describe vessel-based work during construct on (except briefly y in terms of cumulate ve impacts). Does the USCG consider that the use of barge during construct on would be allowed under the 2016

SEA?

(p.12) Note that the geometry of the proposed improvements are constrained by the existing dock and proposed vessels. For bidding purposes, should bidders assume either (a) that such a shading analysis will yield results which do not require removal and transplantation of existing coral, or (b) that some assumed minimum amount of coral removal and transplantation should be included in the bid...?

For acquisition of the in-water work authorizations and permits, does the USCG anticipate obtaining authorization from the state and local agencies? Or, is it anticipated that the USCG, as a federal entity, is exempt and will act as a lead agency in the permitting process?

(MAW) Neither assumption is true. As laid out in RFP Specification 1800.1.18, the successful bidder will be responsible for obtaining permits, authorizations, and maintaining compliance with all applicable environmental requirements

86 1/10/2024 Ahtna Global 1800 1.18 Has the USCG engaged any agencies regarding mitigation measures and/or fees? Will fees be addressed as a change order at a later date?

(MAW) The USCG is currently consulting with NOAA regarding requirements for relocation of potentially affected coral communities at the project location. After an agreement in principle is reached, the successful bidder is responsible for developing and executing a coral relocation plan. Other standard in-water protection measures for marine species would also be the responsibility of the awardee to plan and execute. any additional monetary or off-site mitigation requirements that arise during the project would be considered a changed site condition.
