Q1. Is traffic control required for any location?
A1. Traffic control may be required as requested by the department and paid using bid item #3.

Q3. Considering the locations will be through the State of CA, should we assume prevailing wage for Southern or Northern CA in our pricing?

A4. DVBE participation is required.
Q5. Are DVBE Requirements/participation mandatory for this RFP?

For the two subsequent 1-year option terms, these should be bid at an hourly rate assuming 12,000 linear feet.
