Amendment No. 0002 to Solicitation No. R17PS00302

SYNTHETIC SHEET PILE FIELD TRIAL

TRUCKEE CANAL, FERNLEY NEVADA

Questions and Answers

Question 1: Can the bid documents be revised to a day rate for sheet pile installation in lieu of the Square Footage Item shown? With the difficult soils conditions and being that this job is out of town there are a lot of fixed costs with mobilization, travel time, subsistence, and motels which cannot be divided into the square foot unit price. For an example, due to the soils stay even with predrilling we cannot advance a single sheet pile to the tip elevation in a days’ worth of work. How is the contractor to be paid for the work spent trying to install the sheets into cobble soils if there is no square footage in the ground?

Response 1: The Contractor shall provide cost estimates using the bid schedule provided in the solicitation.

The Contractor will be paid for the full quantity of sheet pile materials furnished to the site. Request for payment may be made upon delivering the materials to the site, but no sooner than October, 2017.

Regarding the "difficult installation site", installation will be attempted with the specified vibratory hammer and steel mandrel equipment. If traditional driving methods are unsuccessful, then pre-augering or spudding ahead of the sheet pile installation will be attempted. These methods will be attempted for no more than 2 days, or once shown that they are not viable/efficient. The quantity of sheet piling that is not installed at the "difficult installation site" will be installed at Site No. 1 by the Contractor.

Questions 2: If a per day cost does not work can you allow for a mobilization/fixed cost unit price item?

Response 2: No, the Contractor shall provide cost estimates using the bid schedule provided in the solicitation.

The Contractor may request payment for the specified quantity of installed sheet piling at Site No. 1 (2,250 sf) upon mobilization to the site. The remainder of the installed sheet piling will be paid once the work is complete.
