Please provide more information on the Gear Wash Sink in the form of a basis of design. The plumbing schedules seem to be lacking this item, these are not in the specs and the architectural drawings do not provide this information as well.

Stainless steel 72" x 20" x 8", wall hung multiple station hand wash sink.

Sink is manufactured from 14 gauge, 304 stainless steel with a buffed satin finish.

13 6/24/2026 CS-100, CG-100 Does the government have a proposed location for the GC trailer and laydown area? With the tight footprint, permitted boundaries for clearing, the availability of temp utilities (water, power) in the area and the proximity to the P-1219 compound it would be helpful to understand the limitations of the site.

KTR trailers and laydown are restricted to within the Limits of Disturbance. The KTR is responsible for the extension of the utilities to serve their temporary facilities from the adjacent compound.

RESPONSES 3

The document issued with Amendment 8 is missing multiple PPIs that were answered in various amendments and not contained in this document. Please confirm that the responses to these PPIs not contained in this document still apply.

PPI responses issued in all previous Amendments still apply.

18 10/8/2026 Previous PPI Response

Please see PPI dated 6/19/2026: Question: Notes 16.1 (16.1.1. & 16.1.2. and 16.1.3) Please provide guidance to when the project will be awarded so that can properly account for the clearing restrictions via this note. If these notes are not relevant please offer new instruction. 16.1.3 indicates that further barriers or relief to these dates would be issued in 2024. How do that guidance change these notes?

Response: There are still two tree cutting moratoriums to protect bats in eastern North Carolina. The moratoriums restrict cutting/trimming trees > 3” diameter at breast height during:

15 April – 31 July (summer active season – this covers both the maternity and pup rearing season) AND 15 December – 15 February (winter torpor season) Essentially, following these moratoriums will allow us to informally consult with U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) to get a lesser effects determination on our action, and this is generally a faster process.

It can take 3-4 months to formally consult with USFWS should there be a need to cut/trim trees during the moratorium timeframes. Since formal consultation can severely hold up project progress, we typically advise against this course of action unless there are legitimate safety concerns (i.e. removal of danger trees).

New Inquiry: With the max proposal period for this project being at 120 days, has this timeline been factored into the construction duration? With an anticipated award up until February 13th and the startup requirements to get mobilized the project could be right in this non-clearing period. If this is the case, would NAVFAC look at allowing a partial start-up package (abbreviated APP, summary schedule, etc.) in order to mobilize to clear enough area to keep construction progressing?

Submit proposals in accordance with the contract duration stated in the solicitation. It is the government's intent to award this project before the end of 2026 calendar year.

19 10/8/2026 Previous PPI Responses

Please see PPI dated 6/25/2026: Question: Are there any known PFAS conditions that the contractor needs to consider to comply with to achieve this work?

Response: Yes, a known release of PFAS in the vicinity of the work is associated with the landfill (as shown on the existing conditions sheets). The excavations and anticipated dewatering locations must be designed and constructed to minimized the generation of surplus soils and the volume of dewatering that requires treatment when working in the vicinity of the Former rifle Range Chemical Dump/Landfill located North of main project site.

Question: CLIN 0001I could represent a significant pricing swing for 70,000 TN.

The CLIN language includes stockpiling, sampling, analysis, and disposal of non-hazardous material at a licensed facility, priced per ton. This wording suggests the material may be contaminated and require off-base disposal, potentially at a Subtitle D landfill. Based on this language, we assume the material will need to be transported off base to an approved disposal facility rather than being disposed of

The correct response is the first one.

Yes, a known release of PFAS in the vicinity of the work is associated with the landfill (as shown on the existing conditions sheets).

The excavations and anticipated dewatering locations must be designed and constructed to minimized the generation of surplus soils and the volume of dewatering that requires treatment when at one of the two on-base dump locations identified in the specifications. Please confirm whether this assumption is correct. Additionally, please clarify the anticipated contaminants that should be assumed for pricing and disposal purposes. Should bidders assume the potential presence of PFAS, petroleum hydrocarbons, VOCs, SVOCs, metals, or other contaminants? Specifically, should PFAS-impacted material be included in the scope and pricing assumptions for this

CLIN?

Response: Bid as specified assuming offsite disposal at a RCRA D facility is required; due to the volume of soil, on base disposal is prohibited. Based on site history, no PFAS releases have occurred in or within the vicinity of the site. Site specific data should be included as an Attachment to the 01 57 19 specifications to provide data for the contractors to bid upon and select an existing facility that will receive the waste.

New Inquiry: These PPI responses lend to contradict each other, please confirm correct response.

working in the vicinity of the Former rifle Range Chemical Dump/Landfill located North of main project site.'

20 10/8/2026 Amendment 8 Please consider a 1 week proposal extension to address the drawing changes and additional PPI responses provided with Amendment 8.

Extended to Tuesday, 20 October 2026 NLT 1400 per Amendment 9.

21 10/8/2026 Amendment 8 As you are aware, the Department of Defense recently suspended the planned Phase II implementation of CMMC, which was scheduled to require third-party C3PAO assessments for many Level 2 contractors. While this pause provides temporary relief from the certification timeline, it does not eliminate underlying cybersecurity requirements or the need to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Should the contractors proceed as previously directed by the RFP, contract documents and PPIs, or are specific parameters being modified?

Bid per plans and specs

22 10/8/2026 Amendment 8 Given the uncertainty surrounding future CMMC implementation milestones, how should project teams balance continued investment in CMMC readiness against other project priorities, while ensuring ongoing compliance with DFARS and NIST 800-171 requirements?

Bid per plans and specs

23 Section 01 57 19 reads as follows:

1.5.1.2.2 Surplus Soils Disposal for Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River Transport all surplus soil to one of the designated locations on government property. No surplus material will leave government property without approval of installation Environmental Program Manager and the Contracting Officer. Deliver and properly manage surplus soil that cannot be reused on its originating site to one of the following locations:

a. Area managed by G-3/5 for reuse on training areas for various maintenance activities: 3.5 acre storage, within TLZ Condor off Verona Loop Road, approximate coordinates 34d 38'07.3"N 77d 26' 41.7"W. Coordinate with G-3/5 Project Development Specialist, MCIEAST-MCB CAMLEJ at (910) 451-5772 to determine capacity available at the storage location, prior to delivery. This site operates Monday through Thursday between 0730 and 1500.

b. Area managed by PWD for use as daily cover: Base landfill, located on Piney Green Road, approximate coordinates 34d 41' 26.9"N 77d 19' 27.4"W. Contractor must provide temporary silt fencing around designated stockpile areas as needed. Coordinate with Landfill Manager at (910) 451-8666.

The 70,000 tons is an engineering estimate for the amount of surplus soils created for the entire project; this total is the maximum amount of suplus soils generated from construction. No additional funding will be provided for disposal of surplus soil on or off base.

Any additional surplus soils generated greater than 70,000 tons is considered part of the base bid and would need to be disposed

Landfill use letters will be provided so that deliveries can be tracked. This site operates Monday through Thursday between 0730 and 1500 and on Friday between 0700 and 1400. Contact POCs listed above 7 to 10 days in advance to coordinate delivery of material at the storage locations. Prior to transportation to one of the designated locations, screen all surplus soil to remove all objects greater than 3 inches and deleterious material. Deleterious material consists of organic debris such as roots, stumps, timber, and construction debris.

Construction debris may include, but is not limited to wood, plastic, glass, concrete, brick, and metal. Dispose of deleterious material and objects larger than 3 inches as specified. Provide all plant, material, and labor for placement and management of the surplus material at the designated locations. Grade surplus material to a flat condition and slope to provide positive drainage daily.

Submit the following verification documents to the Contracting Officer for review and approval:

(1) Photographic documentation that surplus soil has been properly placed.

Photograph will include time and date of image.

(2) Certification statement indicating volume, in cubic yards (CY), of material delivered and confirming material is free of contaminants.

NOTE: Soil contaminated with debris or chemicals cannot be disposed at the stockpile locations. If contaminated soils are suspected or confirmed through presence of UXO, odors, or visual staining, affected soils must be properly tested, manifested, and disposed of in accordance with RCRA regulations. Contact Base EMD, ER Program Manager, for more information.

Our assumption for bidding purposes is that 70,000 Tons of soil is assumed to be contaminated and hauled offsite to a RCRA D facility. For bid purposes any additional surplus soil on the site will be allowed to be hauled to and will be accepted by one of the on base facilities described in paragraph 1.5.1.2.2. Please confirm if this assumption is incorrect offsite at a RCRA D facility that will accept the material based on the waste characterization results and approved by Installation Environmental.

24 Amendment 0008 Revised Section 01 14 00 Work Restrictions (MCBL), 1.2 Special Scheduling Requirements. New paragraph 1.2.c. identifies seasonal restrictions that prohibit tree cutting and trimming from April 15 through July 31 and from December 15 through February 15, due to protection of endangered species. Further, one of the new PPI responses included in Amendment 0008 that was “pending response” at the time of bid provides further detail on this subject (PPI Responses, page 8, reference Drawing CD100 Note 16.1). This response does not, however, clarify whether the Government plans to conduct timber harvesting before the contract award or how these restrictions will be incorporated into the Contractor's construction schedule.

To establish a clear basis for bidding, scheduling, and assessing the potential impacts of these restrictions on the required contract completion date, please clarify through response:

1. Does the Government intend to complete timber harvesting within the project limits before contract award?

a. If not, please clarify when this work will occur and whether the Contractor will be prohibited from performing tree clearing during the restricted periods? If timber harvesting is not completed before April 15, the restrictions could delay initial tree clearing until August 1. This delay would negatively affect site

Submit proposals in accordance with the contract duration stated in the solicitation. It is the government's intent to award this project before the end of 2026 calendar year.

preparation, perimeter clearing, silt fence installation, subsequent construction activities, and the project's critical path. Additional delays may occur if consultation with USFWS is required.

2. Will the Government please adjust the total contract duration to account for this significant RFP Revision?

a. Impacts of Amendment 0008 to the contract duration would increase the existing contract duration by approximately 109 calendar days, which would require Offerors to significantly adjust previously submitted Factor 2, Management Approach and Schedule, as well as result in significant pricing adjustments.
