QUESTIONS AND RESPONSES

SOLICITATION NO. W91238-16-B-0039

As of: 17 June 2016

WBV-EVM-78, Westbank and Vicinity (WBV) Hurricane and Storm Damage Risk Reduction System (HSDRRS) Mitigation, Jean Lafitte Swamp (Millaudon and Horseshoe Cuts) and BLH-Wet (Hwy 45 Borrow Pit) Restoration, Jefferson Parish, Louisiana (ED 15-039)

The intent of this section is to provide questions & comments received from interested parties on the above Scope of Work, and our responses to those questions and comments. It is possible that the information below does not reflect 100% of the questions and responses. The questions and comments do not necessarily represent questions received from any particular contractor.

Questions and responses are provided for information only and are not made part of the Scope of Work.

No. Question Response 1.

Is this a follow-on requirement? Is there an incumbent or is this a new requirement?

This is not a follow-on requirement. It is a new requirement with no incumbents.

2.

This project allows 360 days for completion, but requires trees planted between 15 January 2017 through 15 March 2017. That only allows at best approximately 5 months from award to completely setup borrow pit operation, dewater fill site, and complete all backfill operations.

Will the USACE consider more flexibility on planting season if needed?

The planting window is established to transfer plants during dormant season and thus reduce mortality on trees pulled during the spring budding season.

Borrow pit operations are critical path and may require extended daily operations and/or more than 5 days per week depending on Contractor's capability.

A portion of the planting window can be used for fill operations without impacting planting within the window. No change will be made to the planting window.

3.

We are in the process of preparing a proposal on the above referenced project. In order to properly complete this process, we must investigate the possibly of obtaining the necessary Topsoil from the Bonnet Carre Spillway as stated in Section 31 23 00.00 12, Paragraph 3.5.1.3. Our office has repeatedly attempted to contact the spillway manager to arrange a meeting, but their office does not answer the telephone. The number we have been calling is 985-764-7484. Please provide us with a phone number we can call to reach the spillway manager or have this person contact me at the number shown below.

Bonnet Carre Spillway has been experiencing telephone problems. The alternate contact telephone number is (985) 764-0126.

4.

I have not been able to contact Glenn M.

Gremillion to arrange a site visit using the contact information given in the project specifications. I am trying to schedule a visit to the Hwy. 45 Borrow Pit Fill Site and to the launch locations for the canal bank cuts. Please advise.

An amendment will be issued today as follows:

Site visits may be arranged during normal duty hours by contacting:

Name: Kenneth Crumholt Address: New Orleans Area Office Email: Kenneth.W.Crumholt@usace.army.mil Telephone: (504) 862-2489

5.

Will the cutoff date for questions be extended to allow contractors to visit the site before the question period ends?

Questions cutoff date will be extended to 24 June 2016, 10:00 AM CST.
