#3 Questions and Answers
FA4418-18-R-0022, Repair Active Vehicle Barriers, Post 4
1. Solicitation Section C, Paragraph “Business License Tax -South Carolina” states Cities of North Charleston, South Carolina and/or Goose Creek, South Carolina imposes a business license tax on all contract work within the cities of North Charleston, South Carolina and/or Goose Creek South Carolina.” This project appears to be located in the city limits of Hanahan, SC. Does Goose Creek and/or North Charleston apply for this project or Hanahan, SC? What are the current rates for Hanahan, North Charleston & Goose Creek Business License Taxes?
ANSWER: North Charleston applies. The cost of the license is proportional to the dollar amount of work being executed. Information can be obtained by calling the tax office: North Charleston, 843.740.2632, Goose Creek, 843.797.6220, and Hanahan, 843.554.4221.
2. Specification Section 01 45 00.10 20, paragraph 1.5.2. mentions the duties and responsibilities of the Alternate QC Manager. Is the Alternate QC Manager, Superintendent, and SSHO required to be submitted in the Accident Prevention Plan & Quality Control Plan?
ANSWER: Per Specification Section 01 45 00.10 20, paragraph 1.6 in its entirety, the Alternate QC Manager shall be included in the QC Plan.
3. Specification Section 01 14 00, paragraph 1.2.2 states “work should be scheduled to avoid impacting heavy traffic periods of 0700-0900 inbound, 1130-1300 inbound/outbound, and 1530-1700 outbound.” Drawing Sheet PH101, Phasing Note 4 states “Inbound Peak Hours are 0600-0900, 1100-1300” & “Outbound Peak Hours are 1100-1300, 1530-1700.” These are conflicting peak hours – which is correct? For estimating purposes, how much work is to be accomplished after hours – after 1700? Does the 459 Period of Performance Days include after-hours work?
ANSWER: Drawing Sheet PH101, Phasing Note 4 is correct. A forthcoming addendum will address the incorrect Specification Section 01 14 00, paragraph 1.2.2.
