SUMMARY OF CHANGES

AMENDMENT PARTICULARS:

A. BID OPENING DATE AND TIME:

The BID OPENING DATE has changed from 22 September 2016 to 23 September 2016. The BID OPENING TIME remains 4:00 p.m. (CDT). In this regard, BIDs are due by 4:00 p.m.(CDT) on September 23, 2016. Detailed information regarding the submission of bids is located at SECTION 00100 of the Solicitation document.

B. AMENDED SECTION 00010: By this Amendment, revisions have been made to Option Contract Line Items No.s 0017 and 0018, wherein, they are now Government Price Allowances with allocated pricing. Bidders shall remove and replace the previously issued respective Section 00010 with the Revised Section 00010 enclosed hereunder AND ensure that it is fully completed and furnished with the other deliverables required by this Solicitation.

C. AMENDED SPECIFICATION SECTIONS:

a. 01 22 00.00 10 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT, paragraph 1.2.5.1 Payment, was amended to clarify that the contractor is not responsible for removal of debris from the site, beyond the standard clearing and grubbing work. Items such as tires, furniture, appliances and other rubbish will be piled by the contractor for removal by the Gary Sanitary District.

It was also amended to revise paragraphs …. To show that CLINS 0017 and 0018 are allowance items.

b. 01 50 00 TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION FACILITIES AND CONTROLS, paragraph 2.2.2 Fencing, revised to clarify contractor’s requirements when fencing around the existing pump station is temporarily removed.

c. 01 57 20.02 03 paragraph 3.5.1 Solid Wastes, was edited to clarify that on site debris such as tires, furniture, appliances, etc. will be removed by the local sponsor and are not the responsibility of the contractor.

d. 31 00 00 EARTHWORK, paragraph 3.2 General Excavation was edited to clarify the contractor’s options for excess excavated material. Material may be left on site and stabilized, removed to the Gary treatment plant property, or used by the contractor for another job.

D. WAGE DETERMINATION: This Amendment incorporates and encloses the most recently released Wage Determination, General Decision IN1, dated 9/9/2016.

E. CONTRACTOR’S INQUIRIES: By this Amendment, the Chicago District, USACE responds to Contractor’s inquiries.

ANSWERS TO CONTRACTOR’S QUESTIONS FOLLOW:

Q1: Specification section 46 23 00 states an inspection be made of the existing equipment with all associated cost to be included in the inspection for necessary refurbishment to see if the work can be performed for the bid item amounts (0016, 0017 and 0018). However, the bid form does not have listed amounts. Will allowance amounts be included for those line items in the addendum? It is not possible for the contractor to estimate a possible refurbishment cost without a detailed inspection. In addition, we would request that the allowance include the inspection costs by manufacturer.

A1: Option Items 0017 and 0018 were revised within this Amendment 0002 to government price allowances (cost reimbursable) items. See revised specification section 01 22 00 and revised bid schedule. Item 0016 was not revised, it is the opinion of the designer that bidders should be able to estimate this item based on the information provided and site photos.

Q2: For option items 17 & 18 the contractor does not know the results of the report to know what the extent of the reconditioning repairs would be. Therefore, it’s impossible to come up with a firm cost. We suggest USACE provide an allowance for all work related to items 17 & 18.

A2: Refer to answer #1 above.

Q3: Can 24” or 30” HDPE be priced as a voluntary Alternate in lieu of the DIP and PVC?

A3: Bidders shall bid/price the project as specified in the Project Plans & Specifications.

Alternates or variances may be submitted by the winning contractor post contract‐award via the Value Engineering FAR Clause 52.248‐3 (the Clause is located at Section 00700 of the solicitation document).

Q4: Can the 24” or 30” pipe be HDD in lieu of open cut?

A4: Refer to answer to #3 above.
