SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE (SF 30)

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT # 2

RFI # 4

1) Section 26 32 15.00 10 – Diesel Generator Set Page 12, 2.5.4.1 Refers to the fuel tank to be 24 hr runtime @ 100% load. Drawing E-402 Note #1 indicates a sub base tank. On page 38, 3.5 Onsite Inspection and Tests, 3.5.5, Safety Run Test, W. references to a day tank. Please clarify this is a sub base fuel tank of 24 hour runtime @ 100% load and the 3.5.5.W. day tank verbiage shall be omitted.

Omit 3.5.5.W from 26 32 15.00 10.

2) Drawing E-601dated 6/22/15 Drawing shows a load bank connection cabinet, 1600amp, 3p, 4w, 480/277volt, NEMA 3R;

mechanical lugs. Found no written specifications for this load bank connection. Is this load bank connection box needing to meet UL Listing? Please provide specifications for this equipment.

Refer to E-401 for cabinet location. Provide cabinet similar to Eaton 1600A Roll Up Generator Termination Box or approved equal.

3) REF:Drawing E-100A Note 6 requires a conduit and cable run through the inside of ITN HQ Building # 2120.

Question: How far away is the switch room from the edge of the building perimeter outline where note 2 demark line ends at building?

Approximately 120 feet.

4) The “Pricing Schedule”in the Solicitation does not match the “Bidding Schedule” There are missing ABI and the numbering system is different. Do both bid forms get submitted ?

Please clarify.

Vendors are required to fill out the CLINs on pages 5 – 8 of the solicitation and Exhibit E only.

5) Referencing Drawing M-503, detail A3. The detail shows pumped condensate and filtered domestic water lines into the CRAC units. I don’t see any pumped condensate in either the M or P series drawings. Furthermore, drawing P-101 shows ½” cold water down to the CRAC units.

o Is there any pumped condensate required? Design intent is gravity flow. If the condensate cannot gravity drain to the nearest floor drain then a pump will be required.

o If there is no pumped condensate will the CRAC units drain to the floor drains shown in the immediate area? Yes Is the verbiage in the detail incorrect? Is the ½” cold water the only domestic water to be supplied to the CRAC units? Yes, filtered water is not required

6) Referencing drawing MS-101, is there any specification for the underground chilled water lines? I saw mention of copper type K but Perma-Pipe pre-insulated piping is the usual in this type of application. Perma-Pipe pre-insulated piping is acceptable for the underground chilled water lines.

- Plumbing Detail C1 and A4 show water and gas meters being compatible with EMCS. Is the mechanical contractor or EMCS contractor supposed to provide these meters? The mechanical subcontractor provides the meters and coordinates the interface with the controls contractor.

- Section 236410.1.2.SD-03 and SD-06 – Factory testing. Please confirm desired conditions to test the air cooled chiller at. AHRI Conditions.

- Does an allowance need to be carried for the owner to fly out for the test or will all costs to fly the owners representative out be handled outside of this contract? Please confirm if the sound test is required as this is not available at most AHRI testing sites. Sound test is required.

- Section 236410.2.5.10 – (Condenser coil coating) – Please confirm if condenser coil coatings are required.

Condenser coil coating is required.

7) Section 236410.2.5.10 – Condenser coils – Please confirm whether a Microchannel condenser coil would be acceptable in lieu of a fin and tube condenser coil design. Microchannel reduces the refrigerant charge in the unit, but does not allow for a pumpdown cycle per specification.

Microchannel coils are not acceptable in lieu of a fin and tube coil design.

8) Reference: Drawing C-120 and C-121 Please clarify if the gas line (approximately 1,250 lf) that is shown on drawings C-120 and C- 121 is included in this contract. If it is, please provide us a pipe size, type of materials and specification.

BG&E to provide and install gas line up to the meter. See notes 3/C-120 and 4/C-121.

9) M603 – Indoor Modular AHU schedule, remark 10 calls a return fan on AHU-2. There is no performance data shown to size this fan, nor does the ATC flow diagram on M803 reflect this requirement. Please confirm if the return fan is necessary on AHU-2 A return fan is not necessary on AHU-2.

BG&E TO PERFORM THIS WORK.” Please provide point of contact for BG&E to solicit their proposal for such costs or advise if such work is to be considered not in contract scope for the time being.

Contractor should disregard Keynotes #4 and #5 on Drawing E100. However, Contractor is responsible for coordinating with BGE and paying BGE, as applicable, for work to be performed per Keynotes #8 and #12 on Drawing E100.

14) On drawing M701, Keynotes #1 & 2 list details B2 & B3/M501; however the latter doesn’t have such details?
