As of 10 April 2018
6. Q: Please confirm that roads designated for construction will be closed to traffic during working hours.
A: Yes, roads designated for construction will be closed to traffic.
7. Q: Is FAR 52.222-62, Paid Sick Leave Under Executive Order 13706, applicable to this contract?
A: Yes, clause will be added in forthcoming amendment to the Solicitation.
8. Q: The patching detail shows 8” of base rock and 9” of HMA. It will be impossible to complete the excavation, and placement of the new base and asphalt pavement in one night or work shift. Any patching will require a portion of the road to be closed for multiple days/nights. What procedure would the Government like us to employ to ensure traffic can use the roadway during the day?
A: There is no requirement for the Contractor to complete full depth patching during one shift. Multiple shifts may be necessary, but the Contractor is reminded that in such cases, temporary measures, e.g. steel plating, rock backfill, etc., employed by the Contractor will be done so in a manner that the road will be passable to traffic during the day.
9. Q: Specification Section 00 21 13, Para. B. It states that the bid opening is 17 April 2018 at 2:00 PM CDT. The SF1442 states 18 Apr 2018 at 2:00 PM. Please confirm the correct date of the bid opening.
A: The bid opening will be 18 Apr 2018 at 2:00 PM. An amendment to the Solicitation will follow shortly.
