In its simplest form we are asking for some trenching, set two concrete bases for two (GFE) poles, run some fiber, and install an electrical hookup for our GFE. Connections to our actual network once that work is completed will be performed by 737TRG network personnel - not the contractor.

Question 27: The SOW identifies in section 3.1.1, 3.1.3, and 3.1.5 that 2’ trenches are to be excavated for installation of 2” PVC schedule 80 conduit. Please advise, is directional boring an acceptable alternative to trenching for installation of the 2” PVC schedule 80 conduit.

Government Response: Unfortunately, we believe boring is not an available option because of the requirement for the application of "...3 inch-wide 'detectable' marking tape indicating buried fiber lines... no less than 12 inches above all runs of below-ground horizontal conduit". (See sections 3.1.1 para 5 and 3.1.3 para 3, and 3.1.5 para 1) So if the conduit is at 24 inches below grade, then the marking tape is above it at the 12 inch mark.
