SECTION 00 45 00 - REPRESENTATIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS

The following have been added by full text:

52.225-10 NOTICE OF BUY AMERICAN ACT REQUIREMENT--CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (FEB 2009)

(a) Definitions. “Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item,” “construction material,” “domestic construction material,” and “foreign construction material,” as used in this provision, are defined in the clause of this solicitation entitled “Buy American

Act--Construction Materials” (Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.225-9).

(b) Requests for determinations of inapplicability. An offeror requesting a determination regarding the inapplicability of the Buy

American Act should submit the request to the Contracting Officer in time to allow a determination before submission of offers.

The offeror shall include the information and applicable supporting data required by paragraphs (c) and (d) of the clause at FAR

52.225-9 in the request. If an offeror has not requested a determination regarding the inapplicability of the Buy American Act before submitting its offer, or has not received a response to a previous request, the offeror shall include the information and supporting data in the offer.

(c) Evaluation of offers. (1) The Government will evaluate an offer requesting exception to the requirements of the Buy

American Act, based on claimed unreasonable cost of domestic construction material, by adding to the offered price the appropriate percentage of the cost of such foreign construction material, as specified in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of the clause at FAR

52.225-9.

(2) If evaluation results in a tie between an offeror that requested the substitution of foreign construction material based on unreasonable cost and an offeror that did not request an exception, the Contracting Officer will award to the offeror that did not request an exception based on unreasonable cost.

(d) Alternate offers.

(1) When an offer includes foreign construction material not listed by the Government in this solicitation in paragraph (b)(2) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9, the offeror also may submit an alternate offer based on use of equivalent domestic construction material.

(2) If an alternate offer is submitted, the offeror shall submit a separate Standard Form 1442 for the alternate offer, and a separate price comparison table prepared in accordance with paragraphs (c) and (d) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 for the offer that is based on the use of any foreign construction material for which the Government has not yet determined an exception applies.

(3) If the Government determines that a particular exception requested in accordance with paragraph (c) of the clause at FAR

52.225-9 does not apply, the Government will evaluate only those offers based on use of the equivalent domestic construction material, and the offeror shall be required to furnish such domestic construction material. An offer based on use of the foreign construction material for which an exception was requested--

(i) Will be rejected as nonresponsive if this acquisition is conducted by sealed bidding; or

(ii) May be accepted if revised during negotiations.

(End of provision)

ATTACHMENT 2

SECTION 00 72 00 - CONTRACT CLAUSES

The following have been added by full text:

52.225-9 BUY AMERICAN ACT—CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS (SEP 2010)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item—

(1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is--

(i) A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at FAR 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in section 3 of the Shipping Act of 1984 (46 U.S.C. App. 1702), such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

Component means an article, material, or supply incorporated directly into a construction material.

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means--

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Domestic construction material means--

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States;

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if--

(i) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic; or

(ii) The construction material is a COTS item.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference.

(1) This clause implements the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a-10d) by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 431, the component test of the Buy American Act is waived for construction material that is a COTS item (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) This requirement does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components listed by the Government as follows:

(3) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the

Government determines that

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American Act is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American Act to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American Act. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including--

(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

(H) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause.

(ii) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(iii) The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free certificate may be issued).

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the

Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American Act applies and the Contracting

Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material. However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American Act applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American Act.

(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

Foreign and Domestic Construction Materials Price Comparison

Construction material description Unit of measure Quantity Price (dollars) \1\

Item 1

Foreign construction material

Domestic construction material

Item 2

Include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued).

List name, address, telephone number, and contact for suppliers surveyed. Attach copy of response; if oral, attach summary.

Include other applicable supporting information.

WELDERS - Receive rate prescribed for craft performing operation to which welding is incidental.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses

(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is union or non-union.

Union Identifiers

An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" denotes that the union classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2011. The first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and the four-digit number, 0198, that follows indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable , i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2011, following these characters is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be

July 1, 2011 in the above example.

Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the rate.

Non-Union Identifiers

Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived from survey data by computing average rates and are not union rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007

5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union rates, LA indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued as a General Wage Determination on that date.

Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change until a new survey is conducted.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour

Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the

Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)

and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations

Wage and Hour Division

U.S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator

(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative

Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

Solicitation W911KB-12-R-0028

Coastal Erosion Control, Phase II Unalakleet

Unalakleet, Alaska

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

QUESTION 301: In reference to page 39 of 68 of the solicitation - Please confirm that Canadian rock is acceptable for this solicitation.

ANSWER 301: Yes

QUESTION 302: In reference to page 15 of 68 of the solicitation - Please clarify what documents will count against the 10 page maximum technical proposal length. Paragraph 6 contradicts itself.

ANSWER 302: See SECTION 0021 00 AND 00 22 11, Part III: Proposal Submittal Requirements, Para 6. This is amended to state the following

Provide an original and five copies of Volume I. Up to 10 pages will be acceptable for Volume I AM #3. (excluding …AM # 3 table of contents, charts, resumes, other tables and the summary). Care should be taken to ensure no pricing information is included in Volume I. A single-sided, 8 ½ by 11-inch sheet is considered one page. Double-sided sheets will count as two pages.

Over-sized sheets (up to 11 by 17-inch) will count as two pages. Double-sided, over-sized sheets will count as four pages. Font size shall be no less than 10 point. Resumes, Certificates, and Past Performance Questionnaires are not part of the page count.

QUESTION 303: In reference to CLIN 0002 – Is Mobilization a true lump sum item, paid in full regardless of whether or not mobilization is required for one or two seasons?

If it is the government’s intent to only pay half of the total Mobilization line item if only one season of work is required, then we recommend that Mobilization be split into two line items, “Mobilization Season One” and “Mobilization Season Two.”

ANSWER 303: REFERENCE DFAR Clause 252.236-7004. If the contractor plans on both Mobilizing and Demobilizing the first year, they will receive half of the 60 and 40 percent of the cost in the clause. Meaning they will receive 30 percent for mobilization in year one and 20 percent for demobilizing. Leaving 30 percent for mobilization the second year and 20 percent for demobilization at the end of the second year.

Or the contractor can mobilize with the intent of staying on site through the second season. If this is the case then the contractor gets the full 60 percent when he mobilizes and will receive the remaining 40 percent at the end of the second year.

QUESTION 304: In reference to Section 01 35 26 - Paragraphs 1.3(7)(n) and 1.6.1.1 are contradictory. Please confirm whether or not the QC and SSHO can be the same person.

ANSWER 304: See Attachment 2. The Quality Control (QC) person can be the SSHO on this project.

QUESTION 305: Based on the following, will the government consider adjusting the advertised range of the Phase II project upwards to $10-$25M:

305a. Price discussions with quarries and barge delivery companies;

305b. Phase II project requires more difficult placement than Phase I required (longer reaches);

305c. Phase II is more difficult to access than Phase I (completion of Phase I cut-off economical access to Phase II);

305d. Phase II requires the use of paved roads and highway trucks as opposed to the off-highway trucks used in Phase I;

305e. Cost inflation considerations since Phase I was bid.

ANSWER 305: No

305a. No

305b. No

305c. No

305d. No

305e. No

QUESTION 306:

Section 35 31 19 Page 3: "No permits, easements, and/or rock quality testing are required for use of this furnished rock."

Is the contractor able to contact the material site owner about either providing the balance of the "Core" Rock for a fee, or about mining the balance and paying a royalty?

If either of the above is true, will quality tests be required on the balance of the "Core" rock?

I would assume that gradation testing would be required on any remaining material produced from this material site.

Is that statement true?

ANSWER 306:

Yes, the Contractor may contact the owner of the local quarry known as "Pit #2" about providing the balance of the "Core" Rock for a fee, or about mining the balance and paying a royalty.

If the local quarry known as "Pit #2" is selected as a source for the balance of the Core rock, the rock quality tests (a. thru g.)

listed in specification 35 31 19 subpart 2.2.1.1 are not required. However, the first paragraph of subpart 2.2.1.1 with regard to visual geological examinations for the Core rock applies; i.e. visual geologic examinations shall be made to determine acceptability of materials. Rock shall be composed of hard, strong, durable materials that will not slake or deteriorate upon exposure to the action of water or atmosphere; shall not contain cracks, joints, faults, seams, laminations, or bands of minerals or deleterious materials which would result in breakage during or after placement in the revetment(s); and shall be free of expansive or other materials which would cause accelerated deterioration by exposure to project conditions.

Yes, gradation testing would be required on any remaining material produced from this material site.

QUESTION 307: Maximum page count for Volume 1 is 10 pages. Page 15 Part III, Item 6.indicates that the page count is all inclusive.

Page 17 Tab B Past Performance stipulates that other performance recognition documents can be included within the last 5 years.

It is also stated that Past Performance Questionnaires can be sent back to the Offeror and included in the proposal.

ANSWER 307: Refer to answer in 302
