Spec section 32 92 00, 2.3 Woody Vegetation references that “plants shall come from the nursery as live plugs and shrubs”. Under 2.3.4, there is a fertilizer spec for 18-6-12 slow release to be placed in the pit for each plug. As the woody planting area includes the planting of dune grass (Ammophila breviligulata), separate from the quantities listed under CLIN numbers 10, 11,and 20 it is assumed that the dune grass here is to be provided in plugs (2”) plugs and fertilized as spec’d. Please clarify that these dune grass are to be provided in plug form (not standard bare root).

Provide American beachgrass as specified in paragraph 2.2.1.1. and plant beachgrass as specified in paragraph 3.3.3. Bid as shown.

However, that table seems to include also include dune grass planting quantities (at 18” and 24” on center) that are not associated with the Woody Vegetation planting and should be covered under a separate CLIN (i.e. #20), but are not. Please clarify.

Concur. See Amendment No. 0004 for revised Bidding Schedule.

Bid Item No. 16 – I-5 Crossover Base Material 12-inch thickness(Ventnor). It appears that this bid item includes both the vehicular crossovers and the double pedestrian crossovers on the landward side of the dune. Can two separate bid items be created?

12” vehicular and 12” double pedestrian? The scope of the two different types of crossover warrant two unit prices. No. Bid as shown.

Ventnor Double pedestrian crossovers. In order to construct the double pedestrian crossovers on the landward side of the dune in Ventnor, damage is likely to occur to the existing split rail fence, sand fence, and I-5 gravel on the crest and seaward side of the dune. Will the contractor be paid separately to restore these areas or are these costs to be absorbed in the unit price?

Include as incidental items to cross over work and split rail fence work.

Bid Item 37 – Option 8 – Street End Scupper Excavation. Can the owner provide us with the access points to all (12) scupper locations? There does not appear to be equipment access to these locations. And where can the excavated material be disposed?

Onsite or offsite?

All Contractor access points are shown on plans.

Excavation under existing walkways may be one method of access. Currently the City maintains an excavated area under each walkway. Street end access can be coordinated through the City. This is dependent upon the type of equipment proposed for use. It is highly recommended that contractors visit the site to confirm existing conditions. Material from scupper excavation is addressed in note # 4, sheet C-304.
