About this file

This document is an Addendum to Bid No. BDC35-23/24 for the Ichetucknee Springs State Park Midpoint ADA Access Improvements project in Leon County and Tampa City, Florida. The addendum provides clarification and supplemental information regarding the project, including details on ADA handrail requirements, the exclusion of a Phase II Archeological Evaluation, and the need for a 1A-32 Archeological Research Permit. The project involves making ADA access improvements at the Ichetucknee Springs State Park, and bids are due to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Design and Construction. The addendum requires acknowledgment of receipt and inclusion with the bid submission, and failure to do so may result in bid rejection.

The addendum addresses several questions raised by bidders, providing guidance on handrail details, clarifying that the contractor is not required to include a Phase II Archeological Evaluation, and confirming the need for a 1A-32 Archeological Research Permit for the required professional archaeological monitoring during ground-disturbing activities. The addendum further states that all other contract documents remain in full force and effect.

Signature of Contractor and Date

The following statements supersede & supplement the corresponding items in the specifications & drawings:

1. Question: Detail D/S201 on Sheet S201 has a note pointing to the handrail end extension indicating “ADA Handrail, See Civil”. There is no indication of ADA handrail on any of the Civil Drawings. Please indicate if there are details missing on the Civil Drawings that pertain to the ADA Handrail.

Answer: There are no details on the civil drawings. There are a couple of options

– see attached examples. Photos #1 and #2 are at the North Tube Launch Boardwalk at the park. These options are preferred. However, photos #3 and #4 are acceptable. There must be a 12” extension to be ADA compliant.

2. Question: Detail B/S201 on Sheet S201 has a note pointing to the handrail in section view that indicates “See Detail C/S100 for Guardrail Information – At

BDC Bid No. BDC35-23/24, Addendum #2, Page 2 of 2

Ramps Only”. There is no Sheet S100 in the Structural Drawings. Is it referring to Detail C/S201 on Sheet S201. Please advise.

Answer: Disregard this note. The handrail and guardrail apply to the entire boardwalk except the platform at the water with the submerged step.

3. Question: In the Special Conditions (Page 14) of the Instructions to Bidders, it indicates that “Professional archeological monitoring is required during ground-disturbing activities.” In the Bid Spec Checklist is also notes that the contractor is required to hire a Profession Archeologist. The Cultural Assessment Phase I Study says that a Phase II should be completed. Has a Phase II Evaluation been completed? Are we as the General Contractor to include a Phase II Evaluation in addition to the required archeological monitoring? (This has significant cost impacts).

Answer: The contractor is not required to include a Phase II Evaluation for this project.

4. Question: Please confirm if a 1A-32 Archeological Research Permit will be required.

Answer: Professional Archaeological monitoring requires a 1A-32 as “archaeological field investigations may only be conducted on state-owned lands in Florida under the authority of research permit issued pursuant to Chapter 1A-32, Florida Administrative Code.”

In all other respects, the contract documents of which this is an Addendum, and attachments relative thereto, shall remain in full force and effect.
