Questions Applying to SEED PROJECT #1: Install Static Control Flooring BLDG 95, Project No.

EH950076J:

Question # 1: In regard to the seed project at Building 95; it was indicated at the site visit that nothing bolted down had to be moved however there were several shelf systems located in those same isles that were loaded down with parts and equipment that were not bolted down. Are we to install flooring around these shelves in place or will they be moved by the users?

Answer #1: The contractor is responsible for moving equipment that is not bolted down, installing static control flooring and then moving equipment back to its location.

Question #2: Of the items that are to be moved in the room, who is to be responsible for moving them?

If it is to be the contractor’s responsibility, where shall the items be stored?

Answer #2: The awardee will consult with the customer at BLDG 95 before moving any furniture and/or equipment. The contractor will be responsible for moving furniture, lockers, etc. so this should be factored into your proposal.

Answer #6: Yes, the side door can be used.

Question #7: Since the floor has been deemed suitable to overlay with static dissipative carpet squares, is it not then also suitable to be overlaid with static dissipative tile? Would this be an acceptable option? This would greatly reduce the cost to the government.

Questions Applying to SEED PROJECT #2: Replace Water Heaters BLDG 6761, Project No. FE160616J:

Question #1: During the site visit for the water heater project, I noticed that all breaker spaces in the panels were full. The existing Hesco water heater has a breaker, but I do not see a spot for the new second water heater and associated pumps. Please provide electrical as built drawings as well as if you require a sub-panel set and from where this sub panel would be fed from.

Answer #1: The Engineer relooked this and each heater unit has a separate breaker, WH-2 is #34 and WH-1 is #35. Both building circulator pumps are on one breaker and each heater circulator pump can be powered by the heater unit it is serving.
