This Addendum No. 2 document modifies the contract specifications for Job No. F48C612A, Keaiwa Heiau State Recreation Area Water System Improvements, issued by the State of Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources Engineering Division. The addendum revises multiple plan sheets (C-5 through C-16 and S-2) to incorporate design changes including new quick coupling valves, gate valves, air relief valves, and modifications to tank areas and building foundations. The specifications section includes significant updates: deletion and replacement of the proposal form, addition of evaluation criteria and method of award procedures, incorporation of three new specification sections (01230 for Additive Bid Items, 02226 for Roadway Excavation, and 02512 for Asphalt Concrete), revision of pavement markings requirements, and comprehensive revisions to testing and chlorination procedures. Two additive bid items were added: Additive 1 for stone veneer application on the bladder tank building exterior walls and Additive 2 for road repair work. The project consists of replacement of approximately 4,211 linear feet of 3-inch PVC waterline, installation of four 80-gallon bladder tanks with manifolds, construction of a new tank enclosure building, clearing and grubbing, asphaltic concrete pavement work (14 square yards base, plus additional square yards for additives), root barrier installation (4,087 linear feet), arborist services, controlled low strength material backfill (14 cubic yards), and site best management practice measures. The virtual pre-bid conference was held May 12, 2026, with the bid opening scheduled for May 28, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., and the anticipated Notice to Proceed expected in Fall 2026. The contract requires completion within 300 consecutive calendar days from the notice to proceed, with liquidated damages of $200 per calendar day assessed for delays.
Bidders must submit proposals through the Hawaii e-Procurement System (HIePRO) including completed proposal forms, bid bonds, and all required documentation. The evaluation methodology prioritizes the lowest responsive and responsible bid after application of applicable preferences, including a 10 percent recycled products preference and a 5 percent apprenticeship agreement preference for certified participants. Additive items are evaluated sequentially within a project control budget, with the state announcing the control budget after solicitation closure and evaluating all bids on the basis of the same additive items. Successful bidders must obtain performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the total contract price, maintain Hawaii contractor licensing, and comply with prevailing wage requirements established by the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. The contract includes mandatory compliance with Act 68, SLH 2010, requiring that 80 percent of the workforce employed be Hawaii residents. Bidders are required to hold pricing for 365 days from bid opening, and no incumbent contractors are identified for this project. The estimated project cost is approximately $700,000, with all funding sourced from state appropriations. The Field Office Allowance is set at $10,000, and mobilization and demobilization costs are capped at 10 percent of the subtotal base bid. Successful award is contingent upon funds being available for the project and requires submission of tax clearance certificates from both the Hawaii Department of Taxation and Internal Revenue Service, a Certificate of Compliance from the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, and a Certificate of Good Standing from the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs or certification through the Hawaii Compliance Express program.

GENERAL INFORMATION
A virtual pre-bid meeting was held on May 12, 2026. The pre-bid meeting agenda and attendees are attached for information only. The following questions were received during the meeting and through HIePRO, along with their corresponding responses.
1. Question: Will the root barrier be installed on both sides of the waterline for the entire alignment
Response: The root barrier is generally intended to be installed only on the side where tree roots are present. In most cases, this will be on one side of the waterline only. If roots are encountered on both sides, installation may be required on both sides in those specific areas.
The quantity in the Proposal is intended to correspond approximately to the same linear footage as the waterline.
2. Question: Is CLSM required only at roadway crossings, and is the entire trench at those crossings to be filled with CLSM?
Response: Yes. The intent is for the trench at roadway crossings to be fully backfilled with CLSM in accordance with the trench detail in the plans and specifications.
3. Question: Will there be restrictions on construction phasing or limits on the amount of work area/trenching that can be open at one time to accommodate park guests and visitors?
Response: The existing water system must remain operational until the new system is fully installed, tested, and ready to convert from the old system to the new system. Contractor access and work areas may proceed as needed provided that:
Public access through the park is maintained, Open trench safety requirements are followed, and Excessive open trench lengths are avoided.
See Addendum 1 for requirements for open trenches.
4. Question: Was clearing and grubbing just within the trench limits or is there another limit?
Response: Where needed for construction purposes and for the site area. This includes things like trimming trees if required for equipment.
Water System Improvements Aiea, Hawaii Addendum No. 2 Page 4 of 4
5. Question: Are there restrictions related to native birds nesting near the project area, and would that limit use of equipment or work activities near trees?
Response: The primary area of concern is near the northern trailhead and the new bladder tank area, where the was once surveyed in the area. The area appears to be cleared so no construction restrictions are anticipated. Also, a DLNR, Division of Forestry and Wildlife Biologist will inspect the site prior to construction. Contractors should remain mindful of biological resource protection requirements.
6. Question: Since bidders are required to hold pricing for 365 days, when is the anticipated Notice to Proceed (NTP)?
Response: We anticipate NTP sometime in Fall of 2026. Potential protests or pending permits could delay the schedule.
7. Question: What is the existing water system pressure at the park for purposes of pressure testing requirements?
Response: The pressure at the pump station is approximately 140 PSI. The specifications require testing pressures of approximately 225 PSI in accordance with the specifications.
8. Question: Can you clarify the chlorination method to be used?
Response: AWWA standards will be used.
9. Question: Is there any electrical work?
Response: No electrical work.
10. Question: In the proposal Base Bid Line Item 5. LS Arborist Services. The Arborist Services is a Lump Sum. Are the Arborist Services only needed when the contractor does the Asphalt trench pavement repair?
Response: The arborist services is for the whole project. Arborist should be retained and consulted to review the contractors potential work and in the event they need to trim roots.

CONDITION OF AWARD
It is understood that the award of the contract will be made on the basis of the lowest responsible Total Base Bid and Additive Bids in accordance with the “Information and Instruction to Bidders”, Items K and L, and as selected by the Board of Land and Natural Resources.
It is understood and agreed that the Board of Land and Natural Resources reserves the right to reject any and/or all bids and waive any defects when, in the Board's opinion, such rejection or waiver will be for the best interest of the State of Hawaii.
In the event all bids exceed available funds certified by the appropriate fiscal officer, the head of the purchasing agency responsible for the procurement in question is authorized in situations where time or economic considerations preclude resolicitation of work of a reduced scope to negotiate an adjustment of the bid price, including changes in the bid requirements, with the low responsible and responsive bidder, in order to bring the bid within the amount of available funds. It is understood and agreed upon that the head of the purchasing agency may delete a portion or all of any item(s) in the proposal at the stated unit or lump sum price as necessary to stay within the available funding. The bidder is responsible to make an earnest effort to represent the actual cost of each item, including all materials, labor, equipment, overhead and profit in their bid proposal to preclude claims of anticipated profit or loss of profit because of an unbalanced bid proposal.
It is also understood that if a mutually agreeable cost for the reduced scope of work necessitated by a lack of available funds cannot be agreed upon between the bidder and the head of the purchasing agency within 14 calendar days after the bid opening, then the bid may be rejected in the best interest of the purchasing agency, and the head of the purchasing agency may negotiate in progressive order (lowest to highest) with the next lowest responsible and responsive bidder.
It is also understood and agreed that the award of the contract shall be conditioned upon funds being made available for this project and further upon the right of the Board of Land and Natural Resources to hold all bids received for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the opening thereof, unless otherwise required by law, during which time no bid may be withdrawn.
It is also understood that Notice to Proceed may be delayed up to three hundred and sixty-five (365) calendar days after the bid opening date, and that no additional compensation will be provided for any claim for escalation or delay for issuance of Notice to Proceed on or before that date.
It is also understood and agreed that the quantities given herewith are approximate only and are subject to increase or decrease, and that the undersigned will perform all quantities of work as either increased or decreased, in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Specifications.
It is also understood and agreed that the estimated quantities shown for the items for which a UNIT PRICE is asked in this Proposal are only for the purpose of comparing on a uniform basis, bids offered for the work under this contract, and the undersigned agrees that he is satisfied with and will at no time, dispute said estimated quantities as a means of claims for anticipated profit or loss of profit, because of a difference between the quantities of the various classes of work done or the materials and equipment installed, and the said estimated quantities. On UNIT PRICE bids, payment will be made only for the actual number of units incorporated into the finished project at the contract UNIT PRICE.
After the HIePRO bid due date and time, the figures will be extended and/or totaled in accordance with the bid prices of the acceptable proposals and the totals will be compared. In the comparison of bids, words written in the proposal shall govern over figures and unit prices will govern over totals. Until
P-9 the award of the contract, however, the right will be reserved to reject any and all proposals and to waive any defects or technicalities as may be deemed best for the interest of the State.
It is also understood and agreed that liquidated damages in the amount of Two Hundred and No/100 dollars ($200.00) for each and every calendar day in excess thereof prior to completion of the contract shall be withheld from payments due to the Contractor.
It is also understood and agreed that if this bid is accepted, the successful bidder must enter into and execute a contract with the Board of Land and Natural Resources and furnish a Performance and Payment Bond, as required by law.
