SUMMARY OF CHANGES

The following items are applicable to this modification:

Q: I had a quick question concerning the EPA Lead Certification needed. The 8hr "Lead Renovator Certification" course that is offered through Zack Academy is it sufficient it is an accredited course.

A: The Certification needs to meet the requirements of the EPA. A good place to start is here:

https://www.epa.gov/lead/renovation-repair-and-painting-program-renovator-training That website lists training requirements as well as training providers in various localities.

Q: We provided a proposal when this project bid last year. Can you tell me why the bid was canceled? Also has anything in this solicitation changed form the initial?

A: Good afternoon. I was not on this project last year. Because of that I am unsure why it didn’t move forward before or if there have been any changes on this solicitation. However, we hope you are interested in this solicitation and we will look forward to receiving your quote.

Q: Just wanted to confirm that (3) weeks is the anticipated time to be required for USACE inspection of the bulkhead gate?

A: See Line Item 001, section “e”

Q: Please confirm that the bulkhead gate will require an initial pre blast prior to inspection, and a re-blast after inspection has been completed.

A: See Line Item 001, section “e”

Q: Will the USACE require any certifications or test panels of the coating applicators?

A: See section 8 “Permits and Licenses”

Q: What level or class of containment is required for the abrasive blasting surface preparation of the project?

A: See section 10 “Containment and Respiratory Plans”

Q: Can the contractor anchor into the control tower for supporting of erected structures and containment? Anchor points will be patched after completion of the project.

A: Proposed anchor points must be submitted by drawing and approved by USACE before installation.

Q: Will USACE require full time onsite SSHO, QCM, or any other safety oversight for the project?

A: See EM385 1-1 (01.A.17)

Q: Will there be any UFGS specifications to be adhered to on this project?

Q: In the solicitation, the paint chip lead testing seems to only be focused on areas not included in this project (i.e.

A: The lead based paint chip sampling report included in this solicitation ( Schneider laboratories order # 526706, 515930 ) includes the components specifically identified within each line item. Results of each item tested are outlined in the report.

Q: Will SSPC QP-1/QP-2/QS-1 be required of the surface preparation and painting contractor?

A: SSPC QP-1 is sufficient.

Q: Will 10hr workdays and Saturday work be allowed for this project?

A: See “working hours” in section 5 of the Solicitation
