VENDOR QUESTIONS

Q1: In PWS 5.2.1 of specific tasks it is required of the contractor to “ establish routes” to the wood chip piles. Could you please add some more detail to that and explain the demographics of the site?

A1: The sites are open and the contractor will be able to drive/maneuver right up to the woody material.

Q2: In PWS 5.2.1 the contract ask that wood chips be ground to 2 to 4 inch material. Usually a primary grind uses 6 in screens, could you please confirm 2-4 in material on a primary grind?

A2: 2-4 inch is the primary grind.

Q3: Could you please confirm that the wood chips are not the responsibility of the contractor for removal, only size and dimension of the piles?

A3: The wood chips are not the responsibility of the contractor. They will be left on site in piles of the correct size and dimension.

Q4: Other than the attachment #1 price schedule what forms do we need to fill out and sign?

A4: Page 1 of SF1449, Supplemental Information page 3, signed page 1 of any Amendment SF30, and the price schedule excel form.

Q5: When COR spoke with me last month, we talked about leaving all the material on site, I did not see that or maybe missed it. I assume that is still the same?

A5: All grinded material will be left on site.

Q6: How do you plan on measuring the finished mulch material? our machines all have laser scanner computer volumetric measuring meters on them which are 98.5% actuate and we prefer that route over measuring the piles after they have had a chance to sit and compact and start composting process, we lose total yds and costs us money when that happens. Can we use our devices to measure output as it keeps our pricing lower because we trust our system?

A6: If the laser scanner is that accurate (98.5%), that would be acceptable.

Q7: I see that the yearly total yards over the past 5 years are somewhere around 800-900 yds? Do you expect an increase of those yards over the next 5 years?

A7: Yearly totals are anticipated to be between 800-1500 cubic yards per year.
