Questions and Answers

1. Question: Are any of the roles including QC Manager, SSHO, Site Supervisor, and Project Scheduler allowed to function as dual-duty positions for this project, or is the contractor required to provide a dedicated employee for each of these four roles?

Answer: The Contractor Quality Control Manager cannot be the SSHO on this project. The SSHO shall have no other duties assigned. The CQC manager must be assigned no other duties. The Site Supervisor cannot be the CQC manager on this project.

2. Question: There was discussion during the pre-bid about the location for disposal of mine spoils. The specs list a location “Volunteer Regional Landfill”. Is this the correct location?

Answer: Volunteer Regional Landfill is the correct location.

3. Question: It appears that the Armor Stone may be a different type rock than CL III rip rap. Can you provide a more detailed spec on the Armor Stone for the project, along with a rock size range that is acceptable?

Answer: Armor stone shall conform to the gradation specified in Section 35 31 19 paragraph 2.3.1.1.

4. Question: Will the Horse Trails and Walking Trails be closed to the public during construction?

Answer: All Horse Trails and Walking Trails that enter a Construction Zone, will be closed off at the location of where the construction zone and the trail intersects.

5. Question: Section 31 11 00. 3.3 Embankment Fill, Undercut and replacement is mentioned in this spec for any unsuitable subgrade. How is this to be paid?

Answer: For unsuitable subgrade, both excavation and replacement will be measured by the cubic yard from average end area surveys as described in Section 01 22 00. Per the specifications, undercut and replacement must be at the direction of the Contracting Officer.

Undercut and replacement not directed by the Contracting Officer will be at the Contractor’s expense.

6. Question: On Plan Sheet Q1T-64/53, Note # 2 states that trees can be placed along random locations of the proposed channel. Is this correct? The spec in general calls for all tree removed from clear and grub operations to be removed from the site.

Answer: A maximum of 5 trees is to be placed within the new channel to provide natural habitat. See note 2 on the amended sheet Q1T-64/53. All remaining vegetation shall be removed according to Section 31 11 00 Clearing, Grubbing, and Earthwork.

7. Question: Bid Sheet Item 0010 tree planting and spec section 32 93 43 are included in this project. Are there any plans Sheets or other documentation that shows the location, type and quantities of trees?

Answer: See the amended paragraph 2.1.1.2 in section 32 93 43 that reads, “Plantings will be along upland areas to include; top of bank of Blue Heron Spoils, along stream banks of Unnamed Tributary 3 Concrete Line Channel (whenever possible), and along access routes no longer in use. Trees shall be planted on 10' centers across the entire disturbed area, except in areas receiving other stabilization measures (i.e. riprap protection). Layout plan as described in paragraph 1.5.6 Layout of Planting shall be provided to the Contracting Officer for approval prior to starting work. Plants are to be alternated with even ratios.

The minimum number of trees planted shall be 200 stems per acre for all areas requiring plantings. No trees are required along the designated horse trail.”

8. Question: Can you clarify the Pre-Bid requirement. Specs state 20 % or $3,000,000.00, whichever is less. Can you clarify what you mean by the $3,000,000.00? Do you mean for a bid of at least a minimum of $3,000,000.00?

Answer: The amount of your bid guarantee shall be 20% of your bid price or $3,000,000.00, whichever is less. Providing a $3,000,000.00 bid guarantee would mean your bid price is $15,000,000.00 or more.
