RESPONSE TO QUESTION SUBMITTED AUGUST 5, 2010

Question: The Government added Item 25, 12,000 SF for Cutoff Wall Test Section in Amendment 0004, but did not reduce Item 9, Cutoff Wall Construction by 12,000 SF. Does the Government intend to pay for this twice?

Answer: If the Government designates Item 25 to be constructed in the production wall location, and it is accepted, actual quantities accepted will be compensated at the Item 25 rate and Item 9 quantities will be adjusted accordingly. The Contractor will be compensated for actual accepted quantities on Item 9 upon completion of construction in accordance with FAR 52.211-18 Variation in Estimated Quantities.
