D. SOLICITATION SECTION 00010 (SOLICITATION CONTRACT FORM/BID SCHEDULE):

Revised Bid Schedule Sheets are provided herein.

1) Bidders shall REPLACE Page 30 of the original Bid Schedule (issued 18 August 2008) WITH Page 3 of this Amendment. Changes were made to Bid Items 0019AB and 0019AC.

2) Bidders shall REPLACE Page 3 of Amendment 0001 with Page 4 of this Amendment.

Changes were made to Bid Item 0033.

E. CONTRACTOR’S INQUIRES AND USACE RESPONSES:

Question #1: Bid item #0033 – Handrail – indicates there is 3,300 lf of this item. A take off shows only 2,568 lf by station. Please indicate where the other 700+ ft of handrail occurs or correct the bid item.

USACE Response to Question #1: Bid item #0033 is changed to 2,575 linear feet by way of this amendment 0005.

Question #2: On the Drawings, Sheet S-06, the “Railing Elevation” shoes 10’ to the top of the rail and 7’ to the bottom. Unless our copy is just bad and illegible, please clarify if the intent is 10” and 7” respectively.

USACE Response to Question #2: The dimensions shown on Sheet S-06 are correct at 10” and 7”.

Question#3: In lieu of the flooding that has occurred in the area of this floodwall making it impossible and unsafe for contractors or suppliers to perform a site visit and in deference to the clarifications required to the bid item above, we ask for a one week time extension in the bid.

USACE Response to Question #3: In light of the recent flooding, coupled with the contractor’s above reasoning for a time extension, the USACE has granted a bid opening extension to interested bidders by way of this Amendment; the new bid opening date/time is 22 Sep 08 at 2:00 p.m.. It is crucial that the USACE award this project by 30 September 2008; therefore, interested bidders are highly encouraged to view the site, as weather conditions have lightened. The site should be viewed by bidders in sufficient time to formulate their bids for submission to the USACE by the new bid opening date.
