QUESTIONS/ ANSWERS

QUESTION 1:

Refer to Section C – Descriptions and Specifications / Technical Provisions General. Item 1.1.1 states to “Provide complete design,…..”. Define ‘complete design’. What level of design and design documents are required? Full blown engineered drawings and specifications prepared by architects and engineers? It appears that the structural concrete and electrical has already been designed. What type of specifications are required? Full specs created in SpecsIntact, or just notes on the drawings? Please provide further clarity on the level of design required as this can vary greatly in price.

RESPONSE:

TPG, Paragraph 1.1.1 speaks specifically to design, fabrication and installation of pre‐engineered metal building system, related foundation and 6” concrete slab.

Refer to Sheet 7 (A‐3) for Metal Building Design Criteria

Refer to Sheet 5 (A‐1) Foundation Notes for requirements in regard to foundation and slab.

Refer to Spec Section 13122, Meatal Building Systems, Part 1, Paragraph 1.02 Submittals for requirements.

QUESTION 2:

What is the preferred method of submitting RFIs for this solicitation?

Submit any RFI electronically to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer.

QUESTION 3:

a. What is the thickness of the existing concrete hardstand that is to be removed?

b. What is the thickness of the existing base and asphalt paving that is to be removed?

c. The pre‐solicitation in sam.gov contained the Technical Provisions, General (material specifications). The current solicitation in sam.gov does not now contain the Technical Provisions, General......will these Technical Provisions, General be re‐posted, or are we to use the same ones that were originally posted?

d. Are the factory‐primed ('red iron') surfaces of the pre‐engineered metal building to be finish‐painted?

e. Is the exposed conduit to be finish‐painted?

a. Variable thickness – 10” or less

b. Variable thickness – Base 6‐8” and Asphalt 3‐4”

c. MICC needs to answer. We do not have access to sam.gov

d. Refer to Sheet 7 (A‐3), Exterior Colors ‐ factory‐primed ('red iron') surfaces of Primary Columns and

Frames are to be finish painted to match exterior metal panel.

e. Exposed conduit at Primary Columns and Frames are to be finish painted to match exterior metal panel.

QUESTION 4:

a. Drawing A-3 calls for specific colors with codes. Do we need to figure custom colors for this building?

b. Drawing A-3 depicts the columns as straight. Can the columns be a tapered design (narrow at bottom, wider at top) if the 86’-4” inside clear is provided?

a. Specific color names are from specific manufacturers, matching colors from other manufacturers are acceptable. Codes / color numbers are just a generic way of specifying the particular colors that are acceptable. If a particular metal building manufacturer does not offer a matching color as standard, then they will need to provide custom color to match those specified.

b. Column shall be straight as indicated.

QUESTION 5:

a. Re: Technical Provisions 1.1.1 – Please clarify the design requirements. Is the design limited to the pre-engineered structure (by manufacturer), or are we to re-design the foundation/slab also?

b. Please clarify where material staging/laydown and temporary construction facilities can be located.

c. Is the drawing indicating an FES at each end of the 18” RCP?

d. Please provide a dimension to indicate the extent of fence removal (to be reinstalled).

e. It appears that the same designation is being used for EJ and CJ on the plan. For the intended use and building dimensions, it would be expected that no EJs would be required. Please clarify the requirement.

f. Typical Control Joint – Note indicates to “cut alternate wires at sawcut.” We do not see any practical way to accomplish this. The sawcut (1/5 SLAB DEPTH) will not cut the wire at 1/3 depth. Typically, the wire will be continuous at control joints. Please clarify the requirement.

g. Is the exposed structure to be painted or only factory primer?

h. Please clarify the required downspout locations.

a. TPG, Paragraph 1.1.1 speaks specifically to design, fabrication and installation of pre‐engineered metal building system, related foundation and 6” concrete slab.

Refer to Sheet 7 (A‐3) for Metal Building Design Criteria

b. Coordinate with CMB.

c. Correct. A flared end section is required at both ends of RCP.

d. A total of 60LF (30LF each side) was allocated for fence removal and reinstallation. It up to the contractor if they would like to remove less as they will then have tighter working conditions adjacent to the proposed building.

e. Provide Expansion Joints at the column center lines as noted.

f. Alternate wires can be cut prior to pouring the slab.

g. Refer to Sheet 7 (A‐3), Exterior Colors ‐ factory‐primed ('red iron') surfaces of Primary Columns and

The contractor will be required to provide the disposal manifest to the TSCA POC.

2.2.2 REQUIRED SUBMITTAL ITEM: LBP survey must be provided to the TSCA

POC, as applicable. The LBP disposal manifest must be provided to the TSCA POC if LBP removal was determined necessary by the TSCA POC.

3 Installing Storage Tanks on Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield

3.1 Underground Storage Tank Moratorium.

3.1.1 The installation of any underground storage tank and associated piping for the purpose of containing regulated and/or hazardous substances is strictly prohibited in the case where at least 10% of the total volume (tank + piping) is below the surface of the ground. Similarly, tanks in vaults for the purpose of installing tanks below grade are not acceptable.

3.2 Design Requirements for Aboveground Storage Tanks

3.2.1 Provide appropriate secondary containment (40 CFR 112.8(c)(2)). All aboveground storage tanks used for the purpose of storing regulated and/or hazardous substances must be double-walled. In order for a tank to be considered double-walled, the interstitial space between the inner and outer wall must be able to be inspected visually or the interstitial space must be equipped with a sensor capable of alarming in case of liquid in the interstice (access to the interstice must also allow for the periodic removal of liquids).

3.2.2 Provide tertiary containment (in accordance with 40 CFR 112.8(c)(3)). All aboveground storage tanks must be placed on an impervious diked concrete housekeeping pad designed to catch spills caused from transferring substance to/from the tank. This housekeeping pad must come with a valve that allows for the discharge of rainwater from the diked pad after a visual inspection has been done to determine that the water is clean.

3.2.3 Provide Instrumentation (Provide good engineering practices to avoid unwanted discharges, 40 CFR 112.8(c)(8)))

3.2.3.1 All aboveground storage tanks must come with a high liquid level alarm that emits both an audible and visual signal to alert operators that the tank must be emptied before further use.

3.2.3.2 The tank must also be equipped with a level gauge that allows for determining the level of liquid in the tank.

3.2.3.3 In the case of any tank equipped with a pump for the purpose of dispensing of a stored substance, the pump must have an automatic cutoff to prevent overfilling of a container.

3.2.4 Provide Labeling. All aboveground storage tanks should be labeled IAW all applicable local, state, federal laws, or industry standard. At a minimum, the tank should display an appropriate hazard warning, material ID, and storage capacity.

4. Removing Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) on Fort Stewart and

4.1 Tank Removal.

Note to ENGINEER - The Georgia Underground Storage Tank Management Program (GA USTMP) requires the removal of tanks after they have fulfilled their useful purpose and have been out of service for a period of twelve (12) months. Be aware that some tanks do NOT meet current tank standards but have an exemption from those standards based on their current use (e.g, heating oil tanks). If the use changes, those exemptions may no longer apply and the tank must be removed and if still needed will require replacement with an above ground tank.

4.2 Removal must follow the standards for removal and closure of registered tanks as outlined in the Georgia Underground Storage Tank Management Program (GA USTMP) guidance document (ref GA Rules 391-3-15-.11).

As a minimum oil samples must be taken and analyzed from the excavated pit’s walls and floor. A groundwater sample must be taken if a soil sample is not possible from beneath the UST. Soil and groundwater samples must be tested for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX), total petroleum hydrocarbons-diesel range organics (TPH-DRO), and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The USTs and associated piping must be removed and triple rinsed with water. Rinse water must be containerized (in drums or a tank) and analytical testing conducted by a certified Georgia laboratory, so the product can be correctly coded/classified on a Non-hazardous Manifest signed by an authorized representative from the Installation DPW Environmental Division.
