REQUEST FOR SPECIFICATION CLARIFICATION

RFC 011

NAME OF CONTRACTOR: ______________________

SPECIFICATION ITEM NO.: _104____________________

PARAGRAPH / SECTION NO:____________________

TITLE: ______JP-5 Contaminated Tank Recoat__________________

QUESTION:

Item 104 – Paragraph 4.2.1 list the product and directs for two (2) full coats (Buff and Off White) to be applied. 7.2.4 says the same thing. Neither allows for stripe coats (which are good marine practice and included in every other specification). Are no stripe coats to be applied?

Item 104 – Paragraph 3.1 directs the tank has 12,000 sq ft of area. 7.1.8 directs the contractor to sand blast approximately 12,000 sq ft of area but 7.1.9 also directs to mechanically clean 500 sq ft of area. Is this a misprint or is there 12,500 sq ft in the tank?

ANSWER:

See Amendment 0004 and ARMDEC for revised work item 104A which addresses all the above questions.
