Bidder’s Question #27:

Please clarify if the contractor should assume that the government will be removing and reinstalling the lead in the ballast tanks?

Bidder’s Question #28:

When comparing Work Items 524-10-001 and 524-10-002, there are inconsistencies between the paragraphs. 002 does not have paragraphs 3.3.2 and 3.5 while Work Item 524-10-001 includes these paragraphs. Is this the intent?

Answer: Work Item 524-10-002 is missing paragraph 3.3.2 and 3.5. These paragraphs will mirror work item

524-10-001 and will be corrected in an Errata.

Bidder’s Question #29:

In Work Items 636-11-001/002/003 we believe the first paragraph of 4.3 should read "Damping tiles removed are expected to be < (LESS THAN) 10% of the total damping in the tank." vice the current > (GREATER THAN). Is this correct?

Answer: Work Items 636-11-001/002/003 will be corrected on an Errata to state: “Damping tiles removed are expected to be < (LESS THAN) 10% of the total damping in the tank.”

Bidder’s Question #30:

As we are processing preservation between SP-6 and SP-10, will the contractor be able to leave equipment inside the dock or will we have to mob/demob in between?

Answer: It is the intent to leave the preservation equipment in the dry-dock during the entire preservation process.

Answer: Paragraph 3.5.4 of work item 992-10-001 states PSNS&IMF will provide Pier lay down area of 1510 sq.

With respect to the requirements of UIPI 0770-104, Rel 4, Shipboard Hot Work Precautions Enclosure (2)
