Amendment 0001

The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate the below changes into the Project Drawings, post the contractors questions and answers and pre-bid site visit attendance register. This solicitation is revised as follows:

A. Replace attachment C of the solicitation with the revised attachment C. The revised drawing package adds drawing GLA-GIV 1001 and updates table of contents of project drawings package.

B. Contractors questions and answers are provided as follows:

Question 1. Drawing GLA-GIV 1000 note 1 references drawing GLA-GIV 1001, which is not contained in the solicitation drawing package (attachment C). We respectfully request a copy of GLA-GIV 1001?

Answer 1. See attached WAPA Construction Drawing GLA-GIV 1001

Question 2. This project calls for several different conductor sizes to be replaced, and several small sections of conductor to be reused. This will incur a lot of extra cost in material procurement because small batch conductor costs more per foot. It will cost a lot more in labor and equipment, because we have to have different grips, sleeves, crimping dies, etc, and the consideration of moving from one conductor size to another and having to manage the small sections of reused conductor. We would like to suggest that WAPA replaces all conductor on the project, with 1 uniform and standard conductor size that will suit all load conditions. This will save the project 10-20% in total cost by streamlining the constructability. Can you make these changes?

Answer 2. WAPA considered your suggestion, however at this time the specification will not be changed.

Question 3. Can you provide the outage dates for each lateral?

Answer 3. See WAPA Construction Specifications Division 1.D.3

Question 4. Most of the transformer bank poles have very low transformer to ground clearance. When replacing these poles we assume we will be building to WAPA current spec which will raise the banks. The issue here will be that the LV cable feeds will not be long enough to reach the new transformers. Who is responsible for the LV cable feeds? If the contract is then please provide material list and construction units for this scope?

Answer 4. See WAPA Construction Specifications Division 10.A.10

C. A copy of the pre-bid site visit attendance register is attached.
