See revised response to PPI 80.

177 Response to

PPI 94

Spec 31 21

Sec 3.3.2 Compensation for redesign and installation modifications to vapor mitigation system. The details of the vapor mitigation system, including:

location and size of piping and size of vapor mitigation fans have been included in the contract drawings.

Paragraph 3.3.2.1.c states " 'short term' radon test results above 4.0 pCi/L require system redesign and installation modifications to achieve radon test results below 4.0pCi/L. Submit redesign to the Government for review and approval.

After approval of the design modifications, provide installation modifications to the vapor mitigation system and retest for effectiveness."

(Note 1 on drawing P-641 says fans sections are to be verified as adequate after final testing has occured.)

Paragraph 3.3.2.2.d states "payments for work required

Bid per RFP. If redesign of the system is warranted, a contract modification will be issued.

because readings above 4.0 pCi/L will be make from funds identified in the "Schedule of Prices" for the work required uner this paragraph POST

MITIGATION TESTING -

SCHEDULE OF PRICES

DATA included herein."

Although there is no Post mitigation testing bid item included in the "Schedule of Prices" for this project it appears the Government contemplates compensating the Contractor for making modifications to the vapor mitigation system to improve its effectiveness and pass the testing criteria.

Please confirm the contractor will be compensated for all redesign and modification needed to improve the performance of the vapor mitigation needed to meet the testing criteria, for both the short term and long term testing.

178 Response to

PPI 102

Option 7 The response to PPI 102 indicates Option 7 is intended for debris removal that can be picked up with a clam shell or similar means.

When the debris is detected it will not be floating on the top of the sediments.

Therefore, in the process of removing the debris with a clam shell or similar means sediments will also be removed with the debris.

When the debris is removed along with some sediments is the contractor paid for the volume of sediments with the debris or is the sediment handling incidental?

The underwater debris will be detected with an undewater survey (Per Section 01 45

00.00 20). There is no planned removal of subaqueous sediments, rather object such as timber piles, larger pieces of metal, and other identified object that may obstruct pile driving operations. Dredging the entire bulkhead alignment prior to pile driving is NOT

PERMITTED.

179 Response to

PPI 102

Option 7 The response to PPI 102 indicates Option 7 is intended for debris removal that can be picked up with a clam shell or similar means.

If sediments that are removed while in the process of removing the debris with a clam shell or similar means are found to be asbestos containing, where is the additional handling, testing, and diposal of the Asbestos Containing Material paid?

It is not the DoRs intent to dry and remove sediments prior to pile installation. Option 7 is intended for contractor identified large object that will obstruct the pile driving operations. Soft sediments must remain in situ, and are not included in CLIN 0009.

180 ES102 The match line between ES102 and ES103 do not line up. There is a piece of the jobsite missing. Please add this so work can be properly quantified.
