Question #35

In reference to PPI#35: The paragraph states: "Price to conduct survey for UXO in accordance with Health and Safety Plan (Piano Sicurezza e Coordinamento) , Decree No. 81, Decree No. 82 Law No. 177.

and GEN-BST 001 in areas where the site improvements occur and below existing grade, and locations where construction equipment (such as, but not limited to excavators, dump trucks, grader) are operating.

Minimum depth of survey must be 1m below utility location or site improvement."

The health and Safety plan at section 6.1.2 states that a geophysical survey is required for the areas subject to pavement replacement and excavation for new drainage piping and the

Procedures for UXO clearance must be reviewed and approved by the 10th reparto using approved methodology and considering project’s excavation depth to allow for 10th reparto certification.

results of the survey will determine the need for UXO survey. Based on experience working in the area and on the same type of pavement, we anticipate encountering welded wire mesh reinforcement in the concrete pavement. this is not likely going to allow reliable results form a georadar survey for the identification of buried metallic bodies. We request clarification on which type of geophysical survey should be executed in order to obtain reliable results to determine the need for an UXO survey.

Please clarify what are the results that will trigger the need for a complete UXO survey. In particular, if the geophysical survey shall be executed by the

UXO

specialized company already and the required authorizations from 10th reparto are to be obtained for the geophysical survey. Govt’s answer:

Procedures for UXO clearance must be reviewed and approved by the 10th reparto using approved scanning technique for each phase of the construction.

New Question:

Please note that the minimum depth of UXO survey that can be certified by 10 Reparto is 3 meters(10ft). we recommend to change the minimum depth to be up 3 meters in order to be in compliance with 10t Requirement.

area with a plastic sheet underneath and a plastic sheet to cover it?

Assuming maximum height of 1.5 meters in the airfield area this would require 2000 sqm of storage space (40x50m). If storage in the construction area will not be possible, how far is the storage location going to be? We need to be able to account for loading and transportation to the local storage area if this will be outside the construction area. Before off-site disposal temporary stockpiling will be required for the period between sampling and analytical results for disposal. Govt’s answer: See Attachment E – Revised Price Proposal Form.

in order to be able to provide a lump sum price we request these clarifications:

1. Groundwater will have to be analyzed prior to off-site disposal and some time will pass between sample collection and analytical results. Is the Government going to provide temporary storage for the groundwater?

Should this be included in the price provided?

2. What level of groundwater contamination is to be considered?

Should the contaminated groundwater be considered Hazardous Material?

48 Amendment 0003 states "Revised: 1.1.5 The contract completion time for P-118 is 1100 calendar days from Notice to Proceed."

However, we do not have evidence of the reason for this increase of time, exception made for the UXO clearance procedures which, alone, do not justify such an extension of time. Our hypothesis is that there might be some idle times in the schedule, however we would like to ask the Gov't to provide justification for such extension, so that we can

This methodology is applied in soils characterized by the widespread presence of magnetic anomalies that make classical surface reclamation and the drilling method scarcely effective.Depen ding on the type of work to be carried out, the excavation may be opensection (or overburden) or fixed-section (or trench). The excavation, always preceded by instrumental verification, must be carriedout in successive layers of a thickness not exceeding the ascertained capacity of the search equipment used, in relation to the particular nature of the soil where the work is carried out.

Suitable mechanical equipment shall be used, equipped with a smooth bucket, with slow and continuous movement ready to be stopped at the slightest resistance.
