This is Addendum No. 2 to a Tree Removal and Stumping Services solicitation issued by the Town of Killingly, Connecticut for work at 226 Putnam Pike, dated June 23, 2026. The addendum clarifies four critical questions regarding erosion and sedimentation (E&S) controls and stump disposal procedures. E&S controls are required only in areas where runoff from stump removal could reach flagged wetlands, specifically between stations 12+50 and 19+00. Acceptable E&S control materials include straw wattle, haybales, silt fence, erosion control sock/wattle, or wood chips from the clearing. Controls must be installed on the downstream side of the existing brook and wherever runoff from the stumped area could reach the wetlands within the specified stations. The mandatory site walk was held June 17, 2026, and questions for this addendum were due June 25, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., with responses issued by June 30, 2026.

Regarding stump handling, contractors may pull and haul stumps offsite or pull and leave them outside the 50-foot-wide clearing limits to rot naturally. The clearing limits may be widened beyond 50 feet to accommodate equipment access and stump placement, provided stumps are not stockpiled within wetlands. All clarifications in this addendum align with guidance provided during the mandatory site walk. No pricing information, set-asides, bonding requirements, insurance specifications, or other financial terms are addressed in this addendum, as those details remain governed by the original solicitation documents.
