About this file
This is Addendum No. 1 to Invitation for Bid (IFB) 26-27-009 issued by the City of Danville, Virginia, for the Southern Virginia Megasite at Berry Hill McGuff Creek Sewer Extension project. The addendum clarifies that contractors are not required to possess a City of Danville business license for this project. A material specification change has been made regarding pipe specifications: the originally specified 15-inch ductile iron pipe, which is unavailable, will be changed to 16-inch ductile iron pipe, with a revised Bid Form to be issued in Addendum No. 2. Updated plans reflecting this change are included with the addendum. The temporary easement limits are defined by the Limits of Disturbance as shown on the plans.
The addendum provides critical subsurface information for bidders' consideration. Contrary to statements made at the pre-bid meeting, much of the proposed sewer installation is anticipated to encounter rock and may require rock excavation. A rock profile based on ground-penetrating radar data from 2011 has been added to the plans, along with Froehling & Robertson's Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Evaluation dated July 2011, which includes borings performed in the project vicinity. Bidders are responsible for reviewing all available geotechnical information and accounting for anticipated subsurface conditions in their bids. Rock excavation is classified as unclassified work. All bidders must acknowledge receipt of all addenda.

2. Subsurface Rock During the pre-bid meeting, it was stated that much of the proposed work would be above the anticipated rock elevation. This statement was incorrect. Based on the available subsurface information, much of the proposed sewer installation is anticipated to encounter rock and may require rock excavation. A rock profile has been added to the plans and is based on ground-penetrating radar performed around 2011. Also included is Froehling & Robertson’s Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Evaluation, dated July 2011. While this investigation was not conducted specifically for the proposed sanitary sewer extension, several borings were performed in the vicinity of the
2 | P a g e project (B-41, B-42, B-43, and B-44). Bidders are responsible for reviewing the available geotechnical information and considering anticipated subsurface conditions in preparation of their bids. Rock excavation is considered unclassified.
