C. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question 1: Please clarify the asbestos contained in the ash hoppers.

Answer 1: Perform asbestos removal for insulation lining the metal skins of the upper soot / ash hopper and associated ducting for boiler #2. Main level ash hoppers for boilers # 2, 3, and 4 will have bricks and other debris containing asbestos as well as the insulation lining the metal skins. The debris containing asbestos is believed to fill 50% -75% of the main level ash hoppers for boilers # 2, 3, and 4.

Question 2: Reference drawing M6, scheduled equipment dampers (IDFD-2,3,4), specified manufacture by Ruskin is missing model numbers in the schedule. Thus with missing scheduled details the dampers is proposed as a design build item with interpolation by manufacture for the functionally. In this case some of the listed specs do not mate up to all items of the schedule spec. Please complete the equipment schedule to provide manufacture and model for the required dampers IDFD - 2,3,4, concur on what has been proposed and or advise. The recommendation at this point with 2 working days before bid date is to concur with what is proposed and if necessary work out further issues in the submittal process.

Answer 2: All offerors should bid equipment as specified (and/or amended) and any material issues will be addressed through the submittal process.
