Section 3.3.6 states non-burnable refuse shall be stored at an on-site location and transported to the landfill in full truckloads only. The truck currently being used has a capacity of 19 cubic yards.

20 What is the total acreage of the 765 Catch Basins?

Catch basins on Center are typically box-like components located under a storm drain designed to trap debris before it enters the conveyance pipes. These are all outside and primarily along roadways. Acres would not be an accurate unit of measurement for catch basins. The catch basins vary in size, but the typical catch basin on Center is approximately 2’ x 2’ x 4’ (Length, width, depth) or 16 cubic feet. Debris (dirt, leaves, etc.)

is typically trapped on the bottom few inches of the catch basins.

Capacity would equal to approximately 12,240 cubic feet;

however, catch basin debris would not reach that capacity.

21 What volume of materials to be removed from Catch Basins is there annually?

This will vary from year to year depending on environmental factors. Over the past four years, the average weight removed per year was 21,000 pounds.

22 Will the Ditches and Catch Basins be in contract compliance at contract start date? This would mean the inclusion of drain lines to and from them.

Yes, ditches and catch basins will be in contract compliance at contract start date. The maintenance for conveyance piping discharging into/out of the ditches and catch basins is not part of this contract.

23 PWS 3.2.11 Sweeping of pavements. Does this include full width road sweeping and a requirement for a road sweeper vehicle?

Sweeping of paved roads does not include the full width of the road. It is up to the contractor to determine its equipment and personnel needs to meet the requirements of the PWS relating to the sweeping of pavement. See the PWS, PWS Attachments 1 and 2, and Exhibit B

24 PWS

Attachment 1, Exhibit B, and Maps

Exhibit B states that there are

735.7 annual acres of Level III to be mowed however there are

105.8 total acres of this area on the map. That would equate to

6.953 total annual services of this area. Can the government please confirm these values?

The acreage listed on the map for Level III mowing, of 105.8 is correct. As stated in PWS Attachment 1, Level III mowing is done 7 times a year. Therefore, the correct acreage that should have been listed in Exhibit B is 740.6.

As seen in Amendment 2, Exhibit B has been updated to reflect this corrected number.

25 PWS 3.2.4,

Exhibit B, and Maps

Can the government explain where the 9,600 SY of Plant Bed Cultivation on Exhibit B is on the maps or what are this entails? The total mulched areas total 16,456 SY or 3.4 acres on the map.

Section 3.2.4 of the PWS discusses cultivating of plant beds. Although there are 3.4 acres of mulched plant beds not all areas require cultivating before mulching.

According to historical data 2,400 (.5 acres) SY are cultivated 4 times a year, thus, resulting in the 9,600 SY annually.

26 Can the government explain where the 33,880 SY of Plant Bed Mulching on Exhibit B is on the maps or what area this

The acreage on the map of 3.4 acres (or 16,456 SY) is correct.

The Plant Bed Mulching is done 2 times a year, as stated in PWS encompasses? The 3.4 acres of mulch on the map does not equate to this value.

Attachment 1, which should equate to 32,912 SY annually. The 33,880 SY listed in Exhibit B was an outdated number, and has been updated in Exhibit under Amendment 2 to reflect 32,912 SY.

27 PWS 3.3.6 In regards to the 75 occurrences of non-burnable refuse collection, can the government please provide more detail on the 75 occurrences. Does this reflect 75 full truckloads or each occurrence that a battery or other non-burnable piece of refuse is disposed of

Please refer to the answer to Question 19 above.

28 PWS 3.2.8

and 3.1.6

The PWS states that following raking and leaf gathering, debris collected shall be disposed of off site however other sections of the PWS mention the use of a recycling site or composting material on site. Can the government please clarify.

Section 3.2.8 of the PWS states the contractor shall dispose of all debris off the Center on the same day of collection for raking and leaf gathering.

The comment on recycling is the use of recycled materials in section 3.1.6.

29 Can the government please confirm that all items listed under Exhibit B fall under Firm Fixed Price work and not IDIQ work? Is this the same schedule that was used for the previous contract?

All items listed under Exhibit B fall under FFP work. However, as stated in contract clause B.6, IDIQ task orders may be issued utilizing the prices in Exhibit B. Essentially, as stated in the answer to Question 5 above, any services required above and beyond the estimated quantities/occurrences listed in Exhibit B will be covered under the IDIQ portion of the contract.

Minor changes were made in this schedule from the previous contract.

30 PWS 3.3.3 Can the government please confirm the pick-up locations for Burnable Refuse and Building Boxed Trash Pick-up? Are these location inside buildings? Outside? On loading docks?

Burnable Refuse are picked up from outside of buildings.

Building Boxed Trash (excluding privacy act material), as stated in PWS Section 3.3.3., are picked up at pick-up points as coordinated with NASA LaRC’s Custodial Support Services Contractor.

31 Contract Clause B.6 and PWS 3.6.1.F

Do the tree removal prices under IDIQ include removal of stumps?

Yes, the Tree Removal services listed in contract clause B.6 “Pre- Priced Schedule of Service Categories and Labor Rates for IDIQ Support” are to be done in accordance with PWS Section 3.6.1.F. “Tree and Stump Removal.”

32 PWS 3.3.2 Is the Trash incinerator located on LaRC property? If not, can you please provide an address for it?

As stated in the PWS Section 3.3.2 the trash incinerator is located on Wythe Creek Road, Hampton, Virginia (not on Center; however, next to the Center). The address is 50 Wythe Creek Road, Hampton, VA 23681

33 Does the contractor do the actual burning of the boxes?

No

34 Is trash to be collected from each individual office of the approx. 189 buildings on the base?

No

35 How large are the catch basins?

Is any special equipment required to access them?

Please refer to the answer to question 20 above, for the size of the catch basins.

No special equipment is required to access them.

36 Are the catch basins inside the buildings or outside?

Please refer to the answer to question 20 above.

37 The solicitation number for this project in FBO is:

NNL117608444E. The solicitation number listed on all the documents is:

NNL17608444E. There is just one “1” missing…which is correct?

The correct Solicitation number is NNL17608444E. The FBO posting inadvertently included an extra “1,” and the system does not allow us to change this.

38 What is planted on the Green Roof? Is there water available on the roof for watering?

Seedums are planted on the green roof. Water is available on the roof.

39 On the FBO site it states, “3 - Attachment 3 - Bid Delivery Map is hereby canceled, and

As noted in Amendment 1, Block 9 of the SF33 (Bid Depository Location) was updated to 1 Langley Blvd., Hampton VA shall not be used for hand-delivered bids.

Is there another way to provide a hand-delivered bid or are you only accepting Mailed in Bids?
