Questions and Answers:
Below is a compilation of the questions received for this bid. Questions that were repeated, or of a recurring nature, were consolidated. Thank you very much for your interest.
1. Question: I was just wondering what the prevailing wage is for this contract?
Answer: The Prevailing Wage for this procurement varies by job title and location. The Prevailing Wage Case number (PRC#) for this procurement is 2020009819. Please visit https://apps.labor.ny.gov/wpp/showFindProject.do?method=showIt and enter the PRC# in the box and click Submit. Then click on Wage Schedule to pull up the document associated with this project. If you have questions after viewing the Wage Schedule, please contact the Department of Labor.
2. Question: In Exhibit B, it is stated there are two quarts used per fill at the sites, how often is the fill?
Answer: For bidding purposes, it is estimated that each site will need a fill monthly, although most homes will probably require a fill less frequently in actuality.
3. Question: Where is the chlorine being fed in the system for the sites?
Answer: All of our sites are different, but the chlorine is fed into the piping fairly close to where the water comes into the home.
4. Question: For the Cottage location in Cattaraugus County, it is stated the inline cartridge filter needs changing often. Do we have an interval to expect to change this filter, or should we plan on the standard annual change out for the bid and bill additional filters as needed if we are awarded?
Answer: It is estimated that this filter needs to be changed every other month (6 times per year) for the Cottage site. Please figure the extra filter changes in with the bid you submit for this particular site.
5. Question: There are 18 locations. Are bidders required to visit each location?
Answer: No, there is no requirement to visit the locations.
