Amendment No. 001 Project GA ERFO FSR 54C1

Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest Solicitation: DTFH71-11-B-00023

The purpose of this Amendment is to:

1) Provide clarification for size of the Precast Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert (Open Bottom Box) required at Frady Branch Road, NFSR #389.

2) Provide a summary of responses to questions/clarifications asked by potential bidders.

Solicitation Provision Clarification

For pay item 60220-4650 - 14 Feet Span, 12 Feet Rise - Precast Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert (Open Bottom Box), (shown on the Bid Schedule Page B-3 and Tabulation of Quantities Plan Sheet C2), the required culvert size is actually 14 Feet Span, 12.5 Feet Rise, as shown on Plan Sheet D4, Frady Branch Road, NFSR #389.

Questions / Clarifications

The following questions and issues were submitted via email at eflhd.contracts@dot.gov. The Government response or clarification is provided. The questions / clarifications are not a transcript of the actual emails sent; they have been edited to provide a clearer representation of the actual issues or concerns, and some questions have not been included. The Government’s direct email response to the sender may have been updated below for better clarity.

1. The plans call for a 14’ x 12.5’ bottomless culvert that is flat on the top. Can an arch culvert that is designed by a registered PE be substituted for that which is shown on the drawings?

Response: The current plans and specifications for the proposed concrete box culvert, headwall and wing walls on Frady Branch Road will not be changed. Any proposed changes will not be considered during advertisement - any change of this order would occur after contract award. It is the obligation of the Prime Contractor to submit shop drawings for any product they use that are in general conformity to the plans and specifications established for the contract according to Subsection 104.03 Specifications and Drawings. If shop drawings are significantly different than the details in the plans, it would most likely need to be submitted under Subsection 103.03 Value Engineering. Any change to the details in the plans would have to be evaluated and approved by the CO (and the owner) during construction.
