12. Drawing ASB1 indicates asbestos to be removed in the floors for the Men's room 104 and Women's room 106, but the finish schedule indicates existing floor to remain, with no new floor finish indicated. Please advise.

Answer: ASB1 indicates materials existence. This is not an abatement project, remove asbestos only where impacted. Asbestos under the existing flooring to remain will not be impacted.

13. Drawing A1, the room numbers do not match the room numbers on the finish schedule ID1.

Answer: Correct, the finish schedule matches drawing A2, the new floor plan configuration.

14. Are we to turn over the existing chalk & tack boards shown in rooms 107, 108 and 109, to the owner, or are they trash?

Answer: They are to be turned over to the government.

15. On page A-2, the Construction Keynotes (#2) says to provide new 5/8" GWB where wood paneling was removed. The Legend shows a dashed line saying to provide new 5/8" GWB on 2-1/2" 22 ga. studs. The dashed line occurs in most of the rooms but #2 shows up in rooms 101, 102, and 107 also. In these 3 rooms, is there a difference in what we attach the GWB to?

Answer: We will delete notation #2 on sheet A-2 in the Construction Keynotes. Please refer to the dashed lines as shown in the Legend for the walls to be furred out. Drawing A2 will be corrected prior to resulting contract.

16. In the rooms that get the "furring" and drywall, how high do we have to run the studs and drywall? Do we stop the wall above ceiling height?

Answer: Please see sheet A-3 detail #2. The framing is to go all the way up to underside of concrete roof deck.
