The following specifications have been revised and are attached to this amendment.

SECTION 01 45 01 USACE QUALITY CONTROL

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

For MJ Kirwan

Q1. Amendment #1 answered the contractor’s question (Q13) by stating that the original bid quantity of 1,710 Sy is correct. However, the contractor is not clear as to how this number is correct. DWG G-116 Plan view clearly shows the area of work for reconstructing entrance and the begin pavement overlay boundary.

In addition, a detail for the reconstruction of the entrance is also provided on the same sheet. The dimensions in the detail clearly do not equal 1,710 SY.

A1. There was a unit error. The quantity is corrected to 210 SY.

Q2. For the above Entrance Reconstruction the detail does not depict the reconstruction of the existing Wedge Curb. The existing curb is in very poor condition and partially buried and covered by soil and gravel.

Since the detail does not show this feature, is it being eliminated?

A2. The detail is correct. There will be no curb.

Q3. How is the contractor intended to place 1 ½” pavement overlay in areas where severe deep tire track ruts exist in the pavement? This condition was particularly apparent just past the existing gate entrance to the maintenance building at Kirwan Dam. However there are other small and/or less deep areas across this project where this was observed. How are wide deep cracks (2” to 3”) in the existing pavement to be addressed? There are many locations where this exists.

A3. The predesign site survey did not indicate rutting. Line Item 0004AD, Scratch Coat, Road and Parking Area, has been added to the Additional Pavement items with a quantity of 10 Tons.

Q4. Kirwan Dam field measurements do not match bidding quantities.

A4. The quantity for Item 0003AD has been corrected from 1,710 SY to 210 SY.

Q5. On the overlay only areas, there are a number of 2”- 3” cracks (grass/weeds growing in them)as well as regular cracks. This is not addressed as to how this should be corrected and paid for.

A5. Line Item 0004AD, Scratch Coat, Road and Parking Area, has been added to the Additional Pavement items with a quantity of 10 Tons.

For Berlin

Q6. How will the damaged pavement areas be addressed at the Berlin Boat Launch area since only an overlay is being bid?

A6. Edge repair may be required and addressed during construction.

Q7. The construction of the new parking lot bid item is to include all work for this item. Per the three cross section details a large amount of fill (approx. 11,500 cubic yards) will be required and the new lot will be approx. 2-3 ft higher (across the center line) than the existing adjacent roadway. This seems to be adding a significant cost to the project which seems unnecessary. Can the Gov’t confirm this raised or elevated parking lot is the intent?

A7. The parking lot was raised to eliminate the need for subsurface drainage systems. Due to high water table and the proximity of the lake. The payment item has been revised to provide payment for the aggregate base and asphalt pavement by square yard and a separate payment for compacted fill by cubic yard.

Q8. Sheet C-308-A shows the finish proposed grade for the new boat launch overflow parking lot with a fill ranging from 2’ to 5’, but sheet G-107-A does not show enough grades to accurately calculate a fill takeoff.

Do you have a fill quantity or a grading plan for us to do an accurate cut and fill takeoff?

A8. Line Item 0002AH has been added for Compacted Fill in cubic yards.

Q9. Plans do not show new grades or existing grades for new parking lot at Berlin. Without such it is impossible to calculate the excavation.

A9. Line Item 0002AH has been added for Compacted Fill in cubic yards.

Q10. Field measurements are not matching scaled drawings, therefore sq yds to bid are not correct.

A10. Bid should be prepared based on the quantities shown. Payment will be made based on the actual work performed.

Q11. Level course is variable and cannot be measured in sq yds because depth is variable, should be in cu yds or tons.

A11. The unit of measure for Item 0001AD has been changed from Square Yards to Tons.

Q12. Striping plans are vague and show very little detail as to what owner wants.

A12. The striping in the new parking lot is shown on Dwg. G-107. Striping in other areas is intended to replace the existing. Most of the striping is for standard size parking spaces. Item 0003AG for line painting and graphics at MJ Kirwan has been removed.

Q13. Spec section 01 45 01 Paragraph 3.4.3.1 states that the Project safety and health manager shall possess specialized experience in marine construction. It also later goes on to state that the qualifications should cite any previous experience with Corps of Engineer projects and specifically any projects involving diving operations. This job has no marine construction or diving so hopefully that was just left in there by mistake and we dont have to add extra expenses to cover those requirements.

A13. Specification Section 01 45 01 has been revised.

If it is not stated, the bidder agrees that the lump sum adjustment shall be applied on a prorata basis to every unit price in the bid schedule.
