Part 3, Chapter

3.0 Site

Analysis

This indicates the contractor is responsible for verifying adequate capacity of the stormwater control measures (SCMs) that are being constructed by RQ. If the SCMs are not adequate to meet state requirements, this section indicates the contractor is responsible for making changes to the SCMs. It ia not clear if the current stormwater permit has accounted for the Parachute and

Warehouse buildings. Please confirm the existing stormwater permit includes the Parachute and

Warehouse buildings in which case the requirement to verify the capacity of the current infrastructure would not be required?

The SCMs constructed as part of P1458 Phase I account for the Parachute and Warehouse

Buildings. The KTR/ DOR is responsible for submitting a stormwater redevelopment permit to document the impervious area for P1458

Phase II.

2 Site Survey

The current construction project develops the majority of the site infrastrucure. Will the design-build team, awarded this project, have access to current survey information and or as-built surveys in order to design the facilities under this contract?

The KTR is responsible for field verifying all utilities prior to design/ construction. The use of existing survey data, design data, and/or as-built data (if provided) does not relieve the

KTR/ DOR from verifying existing conditions prior to design/ construction and providing a current topographic survey.

3 Part 6 Chapter B

Drawings

The RFP includes site plans in part 6 by RQ design, please confirm these plans detail a separate project. Please also confirm references in these plans to a "future project" are refering to scope under this solicitation.

The site plans detail a separate project. The items denoted as

"future project" refers to the scope under this solicitation, but shall not be construed as the only requirement of this RFP.

4 Part 6 Chapter B

The current construction project develops the majority of the site infrastrucure. Should bidders assume the work will be completed as shown in the provided part 6 civil plans prior to award of this solicitation?

Yes, assume the work will be completed prior to award of this solicitation.
