Questions/Clarifications for Hartwell Project Proposal W912HN-09-R-0034 Q: In relation to reference TP 4.2, no Appendix P is provided in the list of appendices.

A: There is no Appendix P; the reference will be removed.

Q: Can you please confirm if 2500 hours of surveying will be required each year of the contract?

A: Such surveying last occurred at the Hartwell Project around the early 1990’s. If this occurs, it most likely will happen only once during life of contract, not annually. The contractor, however, must be able to provide such service if requested.

Q: Is the government going to provide the notepad microcomputers in survey execution? If not, what type and style will be needed? Need the spec’s on the notepad microcomputers. Please clarify.

A: In the past, the government has provided needed notepad microcomputers and we expect the same to be true in the future. However, as stated in the referenced TP, the contractor may be required to provide additional computers if needed. Specifications are not known at this time.

Q: In reference to TP 6.0, no Appendix A-D provided.

A: Appendix A-D is included in the solicitation and consists of an overview map of the Hartwell Project that identifies recreation areas. (This is not Appendix A through D, but simply A-D. Appendix A, A-A, A-B, A-C and A-D are all somewhat related.)

Q: In reference to TP 20.0, no Appendix D is provided.

A: There is no Appendix D; subject reference will be removed. These areas were covered in detail during pre-bid meeting.

Q: Since the site visit was held on the 7th of July and the proposal is due on the 22nd of July, that is only a two week period. At a minimum, can the due date of proposal be moved to 31 July? Normally the COE gives 30 days after the site visit to submit a proposal and get questions answered.

A: It is imperative that the schedule remain as currently established to ensure adequate time for award prior to end of existing contract.
