11.) Drawing C- 2.0 indicates a typical water main installation detail with a concrete patch of 8’ wide. The existing PIV is close to a joint in the concrete that are typically on a 15’ spacing.

Does this concrete contain rebar or welded wire fabric?

25) If the New Spray Foam Roof is to be applied by others; will the Contractor performing that work be required to coordinate the sequence of his activities with the successful Offerer for this solicitation so that work performed by both Contractors are executed in a logical sequence to assure maximum quality and efficiency.
