About this file

This is Addendum No. 2 issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget's State Facilities Administration for the Detroit Wildlife Refuge Project in Trenton, Michigan. The addendum, dated September 28, 2017, provides clarifications for a project involving hazardous waste removal, with a bid opening date of October 4, 2017 at 2:00 PM local time. The project scope includes the handling of approximately 40 tons of hazardous soil remediation and drum disposal, with PCB-contaminated materials containing less than 50ppm, which places them outside TSCA regulations.

The pricing structure specifies that overpacked drums will be paid for per drum under Bid Items 7 and 8, while other disposal is measured by tonnage. Hazardous waste disposal will require treatment before landfilling, rather than direct disposal in a Sub C landfill. The Trade Contractor will not be responsible for backfilling any disturbed areas after excavation, in both traffic and non-traffic areas of the site. The addendum must be acknowledged on the modified "Bid Summary" form and becomes part of the Contract Documents.

STATE OF MICHIGAN Date Issued: September 28, 2017 Department of Technology, Management & Budget Index No: 44701 State Facilities Administration DMB File #: 761/17331.SAR Design and Construction Division Department: MDEQ 3111 W St. Joseph Street Lansing, Michigan 48917

Project Name: Detroit Wildlife Refuge

Subject: Project Manual Revisions Bid Opening Date: October 4, 2017 at 2:00 PM local time

ADDENDUM NO. 2

To: All Bidders

SUBJECT: Amendments to the Detroit Wildlife Refuge Project, Trenton, Michigan.

INTENT: This addendum is issued to distribute the revised various sections and answer questions from bidders. This addendum and all future addenda will be distributed to eligible Bidders, which consist of those Bidders who attended the mandatory pre-bid meeting, and will also be available online at the SIGMA VSS website. It is the eligible Bidders’ responsibility to ensure that any potential subcontractors or suppliers that have the original version of the Contract Documents are aware of the contents of all addenda.

CLARIFICATIONS:

Q. Bid estimates 40 tons of hazardous soil remediation. Was coring or sampling of the other anomalies done to determine this tonnage?

A. No soil sampling was conducted. The 40 tons is an estimated quantity.

Q. PCB's were found in the drum sampled, will it be up to the contractor to decide if the drum is considered the source, or will the State DEQ be requesting a TSCA tag to be accompanied with this waste?

A. The drum contents are the source. The PCB’s are less than 50ppm, so the TSCA regulations do not apply to the waste.

Q. The SOW indicates that the drums need to be over packed, but then the disposal is by the ton. The more appropriate pricing for this should be by the drum.

A. The overpacked drums disposed under Bid Items 7 and 8, which are paid for by each drum.

Q. The disposal is also broken into hazardous and nonhazardous. There are varying levels of

Hazardous disposal (landfill, landfill with treatment, incineration etc). Should we assume that the hazardous waste would be low enough to be disposed of straight to a Sub C landfill without treatment?

A. For bidding purposes, assume the hazardous waste will require treatment before landfilling.

Q. The bid specs were unclear as to the backfilling requirements after excavation. Could you please clarify the backfill requirements for both:

• Traffic Areas of the Site; and

• Non-traffic areas of the Site

A. The Trade Contractor will not be required to backfill any disturbed areas.

Acknowledgement of this Addendum shall be made in the space provided on the modified “Bid Summary” form. The changes and information in this Addendum shall become part of the Contract Documents.
