About this file

This document is an Addendum to the Contract Documents for the Rocky Branch at Hickory Hollow Lane project in Fairfax County, Virginia. The project involves the restoration and stabilization of approximately 5,147 linear feet of perennial and intermittent stream, as well as riparian corridor enhancements for improved water quality. The Addendum addresses several questions raised by potential bidders, including the lack of time-of-year restrictions, the handling of as-built responsibilities, the exclusion of the box culvert replacement from the contract, and the requirement for geotechnical testing to verify the compaction of clay plugs. The Addendum also clarifies that the MXV Woody Debris Type 1 structures shown on the plans will not be required.

The contract is being issued by the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services of Fairfax County, Virginia, and the project is located within Fairfax County and the City of Falls Church. The selected contractor will be responsible for the construction and related activities, while the geotechnical testing will be performed by a separate firm hired by Fairfax County.
