About this file
This is Addendum No. 3 to an Invitation to Bid (ITB 26-17-214505) issued by the Alaska Railroad Corporation for the Whittier Yard Drain Repairs Phase 1 Construction project, dated May 14, 2026. The addendum provides clarifications in response to bidder questions regarding project specifications and requirements. The document addresses two primary inquiries: the first establishes that steel pipe casing associated with Pay Item 603.00025.0060 shall conform to the requirements outlined in Subsection 715-2.02.2 or an approved equal as accepted by the Alaska Railroad Corporation prior to installation, with all costs subsidiary to the specified pay item. The second clarification confirms that the project is internally funded by the Alaska Railroad Corporation and is not subject to Build America, Buy America (BABA) requirements, thus permitting the utilization of foreign materials. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum and all previous addenda in their firm's Supply Bid Form (Form 395-0129).
The addendum does not establish new pricing terms, set-asides, or award timelines, as it functions solely as a clarification document to the original solicitation. The clarifications provided address material specifications and funding structure, establishing that foreign sourcing is permissible due to the project's internal funding status through the Alaska Railroad Corporation rather than federal appropriations. No incumbent contractors, current environment constraints, or renewal options are addressed within this addendum. Contact for further information is provided through the Alaska Railroad Corporation's Contract Administration Specialist at wallaces@akrr.com, (907) 265-2425, or (907) 744-0031.

ADDENDUM NO. 3
Invitation to Bid (ITB) 26-17-214505 Whittier Yard Drain Repairs Phase 1 Construction Alaska Railroad Corporation Date: May 14, 2026
This Addendum is issued to provide clarification in response to bidder questions. All other terms and conditions of the referenced solicitation remain unchanged.
QUESTION AND ANSWERS:
1. Neither the plans dated 4/6/2026, nor the special provisions, nor the standard specifications provide a required standard or grade of steel for the 60-inch OD pipe casing. Please provide a required grade of steel / manufacturing standard.
Special Provision Section 603 is hereby revised to include the following:
Steel pipe casing, associated with Pay Item 603.00025.0060, shall conform to the requirements outlined in Subsection 715-2.02.2, or an approved equal as accepted by ARRC prior to installation. All costs associated with providing the steel pipe casing shall be subsidiary to Pay Item 603.00025.0060.
2. It appears that this job is not federally funded and would not be subject to BABA requirements.
However, this is not explicitly stated in the ITB. According to ARRC standard specification 106-
1.01 paragraph 3, if buy American laws are applicable, the railroad provides an appendix to the solicitation. This is not provided in the ITB. Please confirm foreign materials can be utilized for the project.
This project is internally funded by the Alaska Railroad Corporation (ARRC) and is not subject to Build America, Buy America (BABA) requirements.
Please acknowledge receipt of this and all addenda in your firms Supply Bid Form (Form 395-0129).
Sincerely, Contract Administration Specialist Alaska Railroad Corporation mailto:wallaces@akrr.com
