Remarks:

Question: The photos in Appendix 13 of the fireplace stone/marble do not list the Room number where the material was taken. How do we relate the pieces shown in the photos, to the pieces shown on A-660? Clarify scope here, are the stones/marble shown in the photos lying loose on site, ready to be cleaned, patched and reinstalled, or are we REMOVING the pieces shown at the fireplaces on A- 660, then restoring them. The stones/marble on A-660 have definitive part numbers, have they already been removed and cataloged, then reinstalled? What is the scope of REMOVALS with regard to these fireplaces.

Response:

The Owner has archived stone/marble parts in storage for restoration/reinstallation. The parts cataloged for reconstruction are not present in the existing fireplaces. Removal and salvage of existing fireplace materials are indicated on the Demolition Plans and Sheet A-660.

The fireplace reconstruction drawings on Sheet A-660 identify each stone/marble element using the archived part designations shown in Appendix 13. Each part is identified by a Roman numeral (I, II, III, or IV). Individual pieces within each part are identified by a letter suffix (e.g., I- A, II-B, III-C). Archived boxed pieces are identified with a "B" prefix (e.g., BII-A). The designations shown on Sheet A-660 correspond directly to the labeled archived pieces in Appendix 13 and are coordinated between the drawings and the archived materials.

Remarks:

Question: L-002 lists 780 sf of turf sod. There seems to be a large discrepancy between schedule and plans. L-411 appears to show turf sod at the new water line to exterior ground hydrant (at south side of the ballroom) and at the north courtyard. L-412 appears to show turf sod in 3 separate locations adjacent to the parking lot and plantings. Confirm that these are the only turf sod on project. If so, this area is much larger than quantity shown on schedule. Which is correct?

What scope of work is required, if any, at the “EX LAWN TO REMAIN” at the south and west side of the Ballroom?

Response:

The amount of sod is 982 sf including the front terrace lawn and this should be the bid amount.

The attached plans should clarify turf sod and turf seed areas No proposed work in 'Existing lawn to remain' areas. But, if damaged during construction, repair is required at no additional cost.

Question: Keynote Codes M1 is shown on almost all walls of Ballroom 123 and some walls of Porch 124. Clarify what materials are being removed in Note M1. Is the M1 intended to highlight the floors at the hatched areas, the walls along the hatched areas, or the ceilings at the hatched areas? Clarify the M1 scope.

Answer:

The M1 note is to remove materials affected with visible microbial growth (varies by room but is primarily plaster). In Ballroom 123 there are plaster walls and ceilings. At the time of our inspection(s) August 2023, September 2023, and January 2024, the microbial growth was noted on the lower ceiling / upper wall (where the two components meet). Unfortunately, if the source of the water intrusion (roofing system) has not been addressed, it is likely that these conditions have worsened and spread over the past year and a half.

Spec Section No.: 028304, 028600 Drawing

Remarks:

Question:

1) Spec 028304 does not call for SPECIFIC items in this building to be abated, but implies

HAZMAT removal (suits, respirators, plastic protections, containment, disposal, etc) for lead containing items, and indicates that ALL painted surfaces are assumed to contain a detectable concentration of lead. Nearly EVERY piece of wood on this project is painted or called to sanded and painted (see W-R1 thru W-R8 repair codes on G-102). Does all the wood repair work need to occur under THIS specification?

2) What exactly are we removing or abating per Spec 028600? There are no quantities listed in this specification, and nothing mentioned on the drawings.

Answer:

Company: Matrix New World Response:

1.) All painted surfaces are assumed to contain detectable concentrations of Pb because Lead testing was not performed (at least by Matrix).

However, this specification is not calling for abatement of Pb. The spec is for incidental disturbance of lead containing materials. It does not require removal or stripping of coatings from the wood, or treatment of each component as an abatement item. It requires that whenever assumed-LCP surfaces are disturbed, the work be performed using the lead-safe work practices, worker protection, dust and debris controls, cleanup, and waste disposal specified herein and under OSHA 29 CFR 1926.62.

2.) Information for Spec 028600 can be found in table 3 of the report. Additional removals may have been added to the project since Matrix's involvement (2024-2025)

Company: Beyer Blinder Belle Architects & Planners Response:

Refer to response by Matrix New World. The report can be found in Appendix 4 of specifications.
