D. USACE’S RESPONSES TO CONTRACTOR’S INQUIRES FOLLOW:

Question #1 - Please provide or give further direction where the referenced Appendix A is found. This document is referenced throughout the bid documents, but the Appendix is not included.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #1 – Specification Section 00 31 32.13 Appendix A - Previous Soil Borings Adjacent Sites and 00 31 32.13 Appendix B - Soil Boring Results TTL 2018 is included in AMD 0002.

Question #2 - Please provide as-builts or structural calcs for the bridge leading to the haul road.

USACE RESPONSE FOR QUESTION #2 – As-builts of the bridge are provided in attached amendment.

Question #3 - Sheet SS001, note 1 states to match the adjacent columbarium in color, finish and texture. Detail C6/SS301 clearly shows this to be a match for Columbarium #7, but not #6 which is directly adjacent to our new one. Please advise what columbarium we are to match.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #3 - See specification Section 04 43 00 paragraph 2.1, it shall match Columbarium 7.

Question #4 - The original specifications for this project do not reference the Columbarium, Wall or Row Designators. The columbarium markers are referenced in the amendment as to be in Section 04 43 00, but aren’t. Our material provider will need these specifications in order to properly price what is anticipated by the NCA and USACE. Can you help me out with this?

USACE RESPONSE FOR QUESTION #4 – See Section 10 14 00, 2.11 for additional requirements on the designators.

Question #5 - The portions of the drain pipe that are parallel to the columbarium at the bottom of the filter rock runs.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #5 - See Plan Sheet CU-601 for portions of the drain pipe that are parallel to the columbarium at the bottom of the filter rock runs.

Question #6 - The 1.5' long portions at the bottom of the stone drainage pit for the flower watering stations.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #6 – See Plan Sheet LS501 - Detail D1 for 1.5' long portions at the bottom of the stone drainage pit for the flower watering stations.

Question #7 - None of the pipe is imbedded in the concrete, it is at the bottom of a rock drain on top of the columbarium spread footings.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #7 – See Plans Sheets CU-501 -Detail B6 & F6, SS301, SS302, SS501 - Detail A2

Question #8 - Please provide spec section for the gravesite grid monument.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #8 – This information is included in the amended SECTION 10 14 00, 2.13 GRAVESITE LAYOUT MARKERS that is part of Amendment 0002.

Question #9 - Due to the potential cost impact and technical changes that could arise from answers to RFI’s, we respectfully request an extension to the proposal due date. It is stated as of now, that the deadline for RFIs is Wednesday, October 17th, per Amendment 1. In the best case scenario, if the government’s responses could be answered and returned to the contractors in one (1) day, by the end of Thursday October 18th, contractors would only have one (1) remaining business day to review the answers, make technical changes and coordinate with subcontractors based on answered RFIs, before the

Bid Opening on Monday October 22nd. Therefore, we request a bid extension of one (1) week from the receipt of RFIs so that contractors have enough time to review and make any necessary changes.

Arrangements for the bid delivery have to be made in advance and we would appreciate as much notice as possible of a change to the bid date, if the date can be extended.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #9 – The bid due date has been extended by way of Amendment 0002.

The Bid Opening date has been extended to October 25, 2018, ALL BIDS MUST BE RECEIVED “PRIOR” TO 2:00PM (Chicago, Local Time). The Bid Opening place remains the same.

Question #10 - Will a functional load test be required for the columbarium?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #10 – Specification Section 03 48 24 PRECAST CONCRETE COLUMBARIUM UNITS paragraph 1.2.7 Functional Load Tests addresses this question. It states that the tests will be done "If required by the COR, ...". This is a Quality Assurance test that the COR of the construction contract might require if the COR feels for some reason the units being delivered to the site don't meet the specifications.

Question #11 - To what extent is the laydown area required to be restored? Please provide detail.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #11 – All areas disturbed by construction activities shall be restored, per note 2 on Plan Sheet GC102.

Question #12 - What is the lead time for the government furnished, contractor installed Niche Covers?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #12 – COR will coordinate with the National Cemetery Administration in procurement of the niche covers. Lead time obtained after the contract has been awarded.

Question #13 – A subcontractor mentioned that there is a single headstone approximately located near the northern side of the work area.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #13 – We revisited the survey data, work limits over laid on an aerial image, and photographs from the site. We could not readily locate a headstone inside the work limits.

It’s assumed that a Section Marker in the vicinity of the work limits, maybe referenced by the contractor.

If this is still a concern, please provide additional information (pictures or location) and we will address more fully.

Question #14 - Is that headstone inside the work limits of the project?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #14 – See USACE response to Question #13 above.

Question #15 - Is the headstone indication of a single grave?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #15 - See USACE response to Question #13 above.

Question #16 - Will the contractor have to work around the headstone/grave?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #16 - See USACE response to Question #13 above.

Question #17 - It was mentioned in Questions and Answer #5 from Amendment 1 that the Index of drawings provided in section “252.236-7001 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS (AUG 2000)” has been updated in Amendment 1, however, the section was not updated and provided in the Amendment.

Please provide an updated list of drawings for section 252.236-7001.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #17 – The sheet index was updated in 252.236-7001 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS, no additional sheets were added in Amdnement 0001.

Question #18 - The list of Drawings from this section “252.236-7001 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS (AUG 2000)” does not match the index of drawings provided in the original RFP Drawings.

This conflicting information leads us to assume that we might be missing drawings. Can you please provide us with an accurate “252.236-7001 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS (AUG 2000)” section from the RFP so that we can compare this list to the drawings that were provided in the original RFP.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #18 - See USACE response to Question #17 above.

Question #19 - In Amendment 1 there is supposed to be the boring reports but I do not see them, I believe they were not added to the amendment and other drawings were duplicated at the end of the amendment.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #19 – See USACE response to Question #1 above.

*Question #20 - Is all the PVC slotted or just the 4” on page CU 102? Does all the drain pipe need to be embedded in 4” of concrete or just the 4” PVC?

USACE RESPONSE FOR QUESTION #20 – Only pipe that is the slot perforated pipe is the following:

1.) See Sheet CU-601 for portions of the drain pipe that are parallel to the columbarium at the bottom of the filter rock runs.

2.) See Sheet LS501 - Detail D1 for 1.5' long portions at the bottom of the stone drainage pit for the flower watering stations.

3.) See Sheets CU-501 -Detail B6 & F6, SS301, SS302, SS501 - Detail A2,the pipe is not imbedded in the concrete, it is at the bottom of a rock drain on top of the columbarium spread footings.

Question #21 - No Specifications found for the item below: Elastomeric Waterproofing Membrane Per Detail C5 / SS302

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #21 – See specification section 04 40 10 CUT STONE ASSEMBLIES, 2.5.2.

Question #22 - Is the storm sewer live and what size is it where manhole #2 is connecting CU102. Is M21&M21A on the chart 12” RCP(CU-601)?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #22 – 18" storm sewer is active. Labels were added\updated to amended Plan Sheets CU102, CU502 and CU601.

Question #23 - The original specifications for this project do not reference the Columbarium, Wall or Row Designators. The columbarium markers are referenced in the amendment as to be in Section 04 43 00, but aren’t. Our material provider will need these specifications in order to properly price what is anticipated by the NCA and USACE. Can you help me out with this?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #23 - See Plan Sheet SS-203 and Section EXTERIOR SIGNAGE 10 14 00, Section on Bronze Plaque included in AMD 002.

Question #24 - Will 8” CMU, fully reinforced and grouted be an acceptable alternative to the concrete piers shown at each end of the niches? This allows a better fit for the veneer and limestone caps. It is our understanding that the previous Columbaria at this site used the CMU method of construction for the piers. Reference: Sheets SS301 and SS302.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #24 – No.

Question #25 - In the Revised section 01 35 26 Government Safety Requirements AMD0001 09-30-18 in 1.7 Accident Prevention Plan under 1.7.1b. Names and Qualifications on page 15 it states that “As a minimum, designate and submit qualifications of competent persons for each of the following major areas:

excavation; scaffolding; fall protection; hazardous energy; confined space; health hazard recognition, evaluation and control of chemical, physical and biological agents; and personal protective equipment and clothing to include selection, use and maintenance.” Do all of the listed “major areas” in the section above apply to this project?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #25 – The contractor shall refer to the list to determine which personnel must have qualification documentation submitted, based on the work plan and pertinent sections of the Accident Prevention Plan and/or Activity Hazard Analyses. In cases where no need exists for a competent person that is listed in the specifications, the contractor should disregard that respective requirement.

Question #26 - Please include the Boring results as mentioned in the RFI response and noted as part of Appendix A and Appendix B.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #26 - See USACE response to Question #1 above.

Question #27 - Can CMU be used instead of Cast-in-place Concrete as has been previously done on existing columbarium at that site?

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #27 - No

Question #28 - Please extend the bid date to allow for better subcontractor coverage.

USACE REPONSE FOR QUESTION #28 - See USACE response to Question #9 above.
