09 97 13.27.

Am-0005, RFI #82 response indicated that shop or field coating is acceptable for coating of steel structures. The RFI response references revised section 09 97

13.27 paragraphs 2.3 and 3.2. However, only paragraph 3.2 was updated to reflect option of shop or field coating. Portion of RFI #82 with regards to paragraph 2.3 was not addressed in the response. Paragraph 2.3 still indicates that all shop applied primer must be removed to final field surface preparation and coating system application. Should the steel be coated with primer, intermediate, and top coats in the shop, would the coatings need to be removed once arriving in the field per paragraph 2.3? Or is the intent that if steel is shop coated, it would not need to be removed and re-prepped, primed, and coated in the field? Please clarify.

See Am-0008, revised section 09 97 13.27, para 2.3

09 97 13.27.

Am-0005 issued revised section 09 97 13.27 paragraph 3.2 indicating that steel can be shop or field coated. Please define location or parameters of 'field' coating application.

Field application should meet SSPC QP1.

Field painting is coating something once it is installed onsite.

09 97 13.16.

Specification section 09 97 13.16 appears to be intended for the coating of a steel water tank. The coatings indicated in paragraph 2.3.1 are not typically intended for use on concrete substrates. Please advise specification for coating of concrete water tank.

See Am-0008, revised section 09 97 13.16 The coating system and application is for the concrete water tank and concrete foam containment tank.

09 97 13.16.

Specification section 09 97 13.16 appears to be only intended for the Fire Water Storage Tank. Please confirm that the below grade Foam Tank does not require any coatings per 09 97 13.16.

See Am-0007, revised section 09 97 13.16 to include foam containment tank.

Refer to RFI Question #117 (Amendment 5). We Humbly ask the Temporary use of an NACE Certified Coating Inspector. This is the highest requirement in the coating industry, including QP1. There is a limited amount of companies in Hawaii with QP1 status. By allowing the Temporary use of an NACE Certified Coating Inspector, many more companies could be allowed to bid on this work. This will open the field.

Part of the requirement in obtaining QP1 is paperwork and documentation and passing the field audit. A project needs to be started or ongoing. The results will be given the day of audit. By allowing the Temporary use of a NACE Certified person now in this RFI, a field audit can be made in advance and be on site when work begins.

Comply with section 09 97 13.27, para 1.4.6.4 for QP1.
