MO 3775 QA.pdf

This document is a Question and Answers record from Long Beach Utilities regarding the Water Main Bridge Crossings Repair Project FY21-22 for Project Sites No. 1 and No. 21 (MO-3775). The document addresses three clarification questions posed by bidders during the pre-bid phase regarding the scope of surface preparation and painting work required on bridge crossing infrastructure. The questions and illustrated answers specify which structural components require blasting and painting, including the treatment of girders, pipe supports, and steel supports on piers. Specifically, the responses clarify that both girders require preparation and painting; only the portion of pipe supports directly under the 24-inch pipe requires treatment; and steel supports on top of piers do not require blasting and painting. The annotated photographs in the responses delineate the exact boundaries of work to be performed, with detailed red arrows and text indicating which components fall within the bracketed scope of work and which items are excluded from the blasting and painting requirements.

The document provides no information regarding pricing terms, contract duration, funding sources, set-asides, or award dates. This is a technical clarification document distributed to prospective bidders to ensure consistent interpretation of project specifications and scope of work prior to bid submission.
