1. Deductive Alternative #1 and #2 are very confusing. Can you please expand on what you are asking for? For example, on #1 do you want us to credit the Owner for soil processing to dry out the material? If so, are we supposed to price out processing wet material and/or add soil stabilization materials etc. in the base bid? See addendum 1.
