SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

QUESTIONS/SECTION H

QUESTIONS FROM SITE VISIT – 23 June 2015

1. The specification for crack sealing airfield pavement at Ft. Stewart is calling for placement of foam backer rod in cracks in asphalt pavement. Would application of a stiffer D6690 II sealant, which will be more effective, be acceptable for use in these cracks?

***Crack repair will be performed in accordance with Specification Section 32 01 17.16.

2. Section 32 12 15.13, Paragraph 2.3 states that, “The JMF shall have been developed and aggregates tested no earlier than 6 months before contract award.” There is not enough time between now and contract award to meet this requirement if the plant doesn’t already have this specific mix. Will it be waived?

***The Job Mix formula (JMF) shall have been developed and aggregates tested NO LATER than 6 months before contract award.

3. Are there any restrictions on work hours or days work can be performed?

***Please see Section H of this Amendment

4. The project specifications and the plan detail for crack sealing are different. The method in the plans is more typical for this type of project. We need clarification as to which will be required. Also the plans do not show what is required for cracks greater than 2" in width.

***The specifications take precedence over the drawings. Crack repair will be performed in accordance with Specification Section 32 01 17.16.

5. Will Fort Stewart provide an existing/proposed centerline profile of the runway and allow the contractor to bid the project based on a consistent proposed slope? They are currently requesting a schedule of construction that is going to require multiple survey crews on site at all times to achieve the desired finished grade. They aren’t providing cad files so a GPS model cannot be built to perform the work they are requesting.

*** Existing/proposed centerline profile is shown on Sheet 12, "Runway Longitudinal Profile.

SECTION H – SPECIAL NOTES

ALTERNATE DISPUTES RESOLUTION (4 DEC 02)

In furtherance of Federal policy and the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act of 1990 (ADR Act), Public Law 101-552 and FAR Clause 52.233-1, the Contracting Officer will try to resolve all post award acquisition issues in controversy by mutual agreement of both parties.

RECYCLING, SALVAGE, AND DISPOSAL OF MATERIALS

FORT STEWARTAND HUNTER ARMY AIRFIELD

Disposal: All waste generated from construction, demolition, and renovation contracts must be disposed of off the installation in a permitted disposal facility and in accordance with all Federal, State, and Local rules and regulations unless otherwise stated in the contract. At the end of each month, the contactor will provide copies of all disposal weight/scale tickets to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) showing the in, out, and tare weights of each load taken from the installation. The COR will provide copies of these tickets to the DPW Environmental Division, Solid Waste Management Section for tracking and regulatory reporting requirements.

Recycling/Salvage: Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Air Field has a mandatory recycling program. The Installation Command Recycling Policy Memorandum #8 can be accessed at http://www.stewart.army.mil/dpw/recycle.asp. All recyclable materials (listed in the recycling policy) generated during the entire term of any construction, demolition, or renovation contract will be turned over to the Fort Stewart or HAAF Recycling Program. Contractors must contact the COR who will coordinate with the DPW Environmental Waste Management Section (912-767-2010) to arrange for turn-in of recyclable/salvageable materials. In areas where large amounts of scrap metal or cardboard will be generated, it is possible that a collection bin/container could be provided by the Contractor at no cost to deposit these materials. Salvage materials, unless otherwise specified, become the property of the contractor upon removal from the job site and should be taken into consideration in formulating bids.

Hauling/Transport Requirements: All vehicles and containers used to transport waste or recyclables on or off the Installations will meet all Federal and State DOT requirements. All waste or recyclable materials being transported will be loaded, tied, and covered in such a manner that will prevent any of the materials from leaking, spilling, falling or blowing from/off the vehicle or container. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure immediate pickup/ clean-up of any material that is accidentally dropped, spilled or blown from a vehicle or container while in transit on and off the Installation.

Custodial Contract: If this contract is for custodial services or will include a custodial service requirement, the Contractor shall empty or otherwise transfer the contents from the blue recycling containers located inside buildings/facilities to the nearest blue recycling dumpster located outside. The contactor will ensure that all recycled paper products are first placed inside a clear plastic bag and the top is tied closed before it too is placed inside the nearest blue recycle dumpster.

Payment/Funding: If any of the conditions listed under the Recycling, Salvage, and Disposal section are not met, it will be considered a failure to comply with the terms of the contract as discussed in the inspection clause herein.

Guidance/Question: Anyone requiring further guidance, recycling training for contractors, or has additional questions on this section should contact the DPW Environmental Division, Solid Waste Management Section at 912-767-2010.

The following have been modified:

QUESTIONS FROM SITE VISIT

1. Drawing C‐2: The painting of runway closure markings seems to be a very inefficient method for this type of project. Will the government consider the use of fabric runway closure markings or lighted runway closure markings for this project?

**Drawings have been amended to require lighted runway closure markings.

2. Drawing C‐1: Will the contractor be required to close Runways 33L/15R and 24L/6R?

**Yes, see amended drawing C‐1.

3. Will the government consider providing the bidders with an AutoCAD file of the Existing/Proposed Topography and/or Cross Sections for use in estimating quantities since this is a lump sum project?

**Due to issues with file conversion and possible loss of integrity, we cannot provide the drawing files for bidding purposes. For our policy on this matter, see the Technical Provisions, General para. 5.3.

4. Due to the lack of erosion control plans, can we assume that this project will not require any local or state environmental permits?

**Yes, no permits are required.

5. Is the intent of the contract to mill all of the existing runway mainline, without consideration of existing fills required on the existing runway, (50 ft left and right for a depth of 4 quote mark , and then 2 quote mark on the adjcent shoulders for 25' width prior to placement of structural asphalt?

**No. The intent is to mill only where indicated on the runway cross sections in order to achieve the final grades.

Some places on the runway will require the entire 4"/2" for the runway/shoulders, some places will require very little milling, plus a leveling course.

6. Is the intent of the contract mill only the cut sections of the mainline runway to a variable depth as needed as indicated by the provided cross sections and then apply only leveling and no milling in the fill sections of the mainline runway prior to placement of structural asphalt?

**This project requires variable depth milling in order to provide the correct profile of the runway and shoulders after the 4"/2" of new asphalt are installed. In places where leveling is required, it will be necessary to mill and square out the existing pavement in order to avoid feathering out the asphalt. In these cases, the leveling course needs to be a minimum of 1‐1/2" thick.
