The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requires collection of Past performance Information (PPI) on AE contracts and IDIQs at the task order. The system collects and manages past performance data. Effective 1 Apr 2007 ACASS is now a module of DoD’s CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING SYSTEM (CPARS). Architect-Engineer PPI data shall be entered in the Architect-Engineer Contract Administration Support System (ACASS) module via CPARS. Both the contractor and government personnel are responsible for inputting PPI data. Performance evaluations prepared in ACASS are transmitted to the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS). For specific details and guidance in use of the system, contractor is directed to https://www.nwp.usace.army.mil/ct/I/home.asp. This links the contractor to the Portland District Contractor Appraisal Information Center (CAIC). CAIC is the primary center to assist both the contractor and government personnel in using the system.

1. Plans (See Appendix A):

The following plan sheets have been revised:

CG-101, C-301, C-505, C-512, C-513

2. Specifications:

Spec Section 04 20 00 Masonry replaced (See Appendix B) Revised: SECTION 05 48 10.00 18, Paragraph 3.2.17 Stem Cover has been revised:

3.2.17 Stem Protector

Each unit shall be provided with a stem protector, which contains a view window. Galvanized steel is to be used for the stem protector. The stem shall be vandal proof. The view window shall be clear and UV protected to avoid deterioration from sunlight.

Replace paragraph 3.6.5 Waste Water from spec section 01 57 20.00 10, previously revised in Amendment #12, with revised version below:

3.6.5 Waste Water

a. Waste water from construction activities shall not be allowed to enter water ways or to be discharged prior to being tested and treated to remove pollutants. Monitoring of water areas affected by construction shall be the Contractor's responsibility. The Contractor will employ maximum Best Management Practices to limit, minimize and eliminate contamination down the hydrologic gradient. The Contractor is responsible for all costs to clean-up off-site waterways which are contaminated as a result of their activities. The Contractor shall handle all waste water in accordance with all Federal, State, Regional and Local laws and regulations.

b. Waste waters directly derived from construction activities shall not be allowed to enter clean water areas directly. Waste waters shall be collected and placed in retention areas where suspended material can be settled out or the water evaporates or is absorbed into the ground to separate pollutants from the water. Analysis shall be performed and results reviewed and approved before water in retention areas is discharged. Retention areas shall be dug within the limits of the project and are to be backfilled when no longer in use.

c. For discharge of ground water, the Contractor shall obtain a State or Federal permit specific for pumping and discharging ground water prior to surface discharging or shall land apply on the project site. Encountered ground water shall be handled in the same manner as waste water described in sub-paragraph B of this spec paragraph. Land application shall be in accordance with all Federal, State, Regional, and/or Local laws and regulations for pumping and land applying ground water. For discharge of ground water to surface waters a NJPDES – Discharge to Surface Water (NJPDES - DSW) permit is required. For discharge of ground waters to a retention area there is no requirement to obtain a NJPDES - Discharge to Ground Water (NJPDES - DGW) permit provided that each construction project segment is less than 30 days, and does not exceed 100,000 gallons per day.

d. Water generated from the flushing of lines shall be land applied in accordance with all Federal, State, and local laws and regulations for land application.

Please submit any remaining questions on this project by Thursday, 28 August 2008, 2 pm.

3. Responses to Contractor Questions (For Information Purposes Only):

Q1) In terms of removal of contaminated groundwater it is nearly impossible to quantify the volume expected to be removed. It is not only necessary to quantify the amount that is expected to be disposed from de-con but also the volume of water from dewatering from excavation. As an example “USACE” provided a “CY’ quantity for disposal. The reason for that is to maintain an even and comparable bidding field between all of the contractors. In an effort to keep the bids balanced – it would be necessary to provide a bid “Quantity”, an allowance or some value that all contractors can bid evenly.

A1) Agreed, it is nearly impossible to quantify the amount of water that will need to be pumped out of the excavated areas in terms of “quantity” and “CY”. For the purposes of the Invitation for Bid, the government specification calls for the water not to be removed but to have the water discharged it back into the ground within project limits. For clarification, please visit paragraph

3.6.5 entitled, “Waste Water” from spec section 01 57 20.00 10. It has been revised again in this amendment to outline the procedures for dealing with contaminated water, which is to discharge it back into the ground within the project limits.

Q2) Further clarification to Question #6 of Amendment #12: “May 8’ diameter precast manholes as detailed on Sheet C-509 be substituted for cast-in-place junction chambers? If not, please identify the locations where 8’ diameter precast manholes are to be used.”

A2) No. Junction chambers are to be built as shown in the plans and can not be substituted for cast-in-place junction chambers. The detail for the 8’ manhole on plan sheet C-509 is a typical detail for the face of the junction chamber. To help identify the locations of where the 8’ diameter precast manholes are to be used, plan views of certain junction chambers can be found on plan sheet C-512, which show what angles to construct.

Q3) Can round manholes be substituted in place of the CIP junction chambers.

A3) No. Round manholes can not be substituted in place of the CIP junction chambers. Junction chambers are to be built as shown in the plans. As explained in the previous response, the plans show the dimensions of the junction chambers.

Q4) The plan sheet referred to in response to question #20 of amendment #12 is incorrect.

A4) Correction to Answer #20 of Amendment #12: The correct revised plan sheet is C-505. The dimensions are correct as shown on the revised plan sheet.

Q5) Amendment 12 requires the Contractor to obtain the necessary permits to discharge any water resulting from the construction operations into surface waters. To the best of our knowledge, these permits which must be secured from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection must be obtained from the owner. This is also a lengthy process, time wise and will affect the contractor’s ability to perform the work under the contract within the time allowed. The issuance of this permit, as well as the alternate scheme of storing this water using on-site detention is subject to what contaminants, and the levels thereof, as indicated in the information contained in Amendment 9, may be present in the soils and groundwater within and adjacent to the work area.

A5) Reference is made to specification section 01 57 20.00 10 Environmental Protection, paragraph 3.6.5 Waste water, found in Amendment #13, which states, “For discharge of ground waters to a retention area there is no requirement to obtain a NJPDES - Discharge to Ground Water (NJPDES - DGW) permit provided that each construction project segment is less than 30 days, and does not exceed 100,000 gallons per day.” If the construction methodology chosen by the contractor requires a NJPDES Permit, then the contractor is responsible for obtaining said permit and completing the project within the contract duration.
