| Cell3: 9 Gauge steel core. |
| Cell3: This is specified in the specifications referenced in the SOW Part 2 section 1.1. |
| Cell3: In the past there was no effort to protect the fence materials during installation. The paint used is not compatible with the vinyl or powder coat. See SOW 1.4 F. |
| Cell3: See Dover AFB Design Guide section 4.3.1. |
| Cell3: No, reseed if required. |
| Cell3: 70% per SF. |
| Cell3: To be determined by user. Likely will be inside the compound to prevent unauthorized dumping of trash in the recycling dumpsters. |
| Cell3: No |
| Cell3: No, provided the project is completed within the POP. Please note the user will need to be providing escort so overtime may not be granted. |
| Cell3: AF 103 to be provided. |

| Cell3: No provided the width of the linear disturbance along the fence line does not exceed 10'. |
| Cell3: At NTP. |
| Cell3: BOD would be at the Pre-final inspection. Provided there are no security concerns this could be the POP if contracting concurs |
| Cell3: Compacted select fill or crusher run backfill, saw cut edges, tack coat edges and match pavement depth with hot mix. If crusher run base course exists match the depth of base course with crusher run. |
| Cell3: Due to the mission at facility 1212, photos are not available. |

| Cell3: It is not a requirement. The contractor may perform a GPR at their own discretion or locate utilities by potholing. |
| Cell3: If you are referring to unexploded ordinance this area was never a range to the best of my knowledge and the answer is no. |
| Cell3: 6' plus 1' for barb wire. 7' fabric is specified since it needs to be buried a minimum of 4" . |
| Cell3: See response to 35 above. |
| Cell3: If any code requires it to be. |
| Cell3: We have usually seen the barb wire grounded also. |
| Cell3: Yes |
| Cell3: We tried installing posts outside the existing fence in this area, demoing the old fabric and fence in daily increments before installing the new fabric. It resulted in difficulty removing the existing fabric without damaging the new posts. What you are proposing would be even more difficult, installing the new fence not to mention demoing the old fence without damaging the new. |
| Cell3: See above |

The contractor should place recyclable fencing material in the dumpster in a manner to maximize the quantity loaded in each dumpster. The contractor should provide CENMP 3 working days notice of when they need the dumpster changed out. |
| Cell3: Dispose of excavated soil on site. Most will be used filling existing post holes. There will also be low spots where animals are getting under the fence. Any additional can be raked out on site. |
