Vendor Questions and Answers:
Q - Clarification on number of times watering after seeding needs to be done.
A - There is no set number of times of watering. The contractor is required to water as needed to achieve the results indicated in the spec Section 32 92 19.01 13
Q - What should be done with any additional topsoil generated?
A - Excess topsoil shall be disposed of at the Disposal Site shown on Plan Sheet G-002. See Section 01 14 00.00 13 and Section 01 22 00.00 13.
Q - If subcontracted trucks/Side dumps are used, are the truck drivers subject to prevailing wage rates? The high wage rate for truck Drivers looks to indicate the wage is meant for off road trucks as it is higher than skilled operator positions.
A - Contractors are required to follow the rules and regulations of the Department of Labor regarding the applicability of Davis Bacon to truck drivers.
Q - Does the staging area have existing utility hook us for the government office trailer?
A - The staging area does not have existing utility hookups. See Section 01 50 02.00 13 para 1.3.
Q - Measurement and Payment spec section. Paragraph 9.5.1 Excavation and Paragraph 1.9.6 Borrow Excavation.
Which line item does the construction of the embankment fall under? How is the contractor compensated for use of suitable material excavated from the ditches and used as embankment material if the embankment construction is billed under borrow excavation?
A - If the embankment material is obtained from the ditches it is paid under the Excavation CLIN. If the embankment material is obtained from the borrow area, it is paid under the Borrow Excavation CLIN. See Section 01 22 00.00 13 para 1.9.5 and para 1.9.6.
Q - Can the Contractor Quality Control System Manager (CQC) and the Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO) dual hat?
A – No. See Section 01 35 26 para 1.6.1.1.
Q - Can you please clarify if the Contractor Quality Control System Manager (CQC) and the Quality Control (QC) Manager are the same person?
W912ES21B0005
A - The CQC System Manager is the same as the Quality Control Manager is the same as CQC Manager is the same as the QC Manager.
Q - Is a NPDES (National Pollution Discharge Elimination System) permit required?
A – Yes. See Section 01 41 26.00 13
Q - Can debris from clearing be disposed of at the disposal site?
A – No. See Section 31 11 00 para 3.3.
Q - There does not appear to be any subgrade excavation (Clin 008) shown on the plans. Section 01 22 00 .00 13, Part 1.9.4, does not describe what the line item is for. Please describe the scope of work that is required for Clin 008 - Subgrade Excavation.
A - Subgrade Excavation is not shown on the plans because it is additional excavation required to remove questionable material based on field conditions. The following spec sections define and describe the scope of work for Subgrade Excavation: 31 00 00.00 13 para 2.1.13; 01 22 00.00 13 para 1.9.4.
Q - The water levels found in the soil boring logs along the alignment of the embankment vary. The bottom elevation of the borrow pit excavation is approximately 905.00. The soil borings for the borrow pit state that water level is not determined. Can you confirm that offerors should include dewatering in their price for CLIN 0010- Borrow Excavation?
A - It is the responsibility of the Contractor to manage groundwater and surface water. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the bidder to determine how to accommodate this. See 31 00 00.00 13 para 3.23.
Q - Does the Corp have any earthwork tables (cut/fill tables) for the project in order to hone in on where the dirt is actually moving onsite?
