SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT0001

Solicitation W912WJ-17-Q-0004

Construction of a New Access Road to the Outlet Structurer and Downstream Toe at the Conant Brook, located in Monson, Massachusetts

AMENDMENT 0001

SPECIFICATION CHANGES

Specification Section 01 11 00 SUMMARY OF WORK, Subpart 1.16 QUANTITY SURVEYS; delete this subpart in its entirety.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. Section 01 11 00 page9, paragraph 1.1.6 states that quantity surveys will be used for payments, yet the bid is lump sum. Why is the bid not unit price?

Answer: A lump sum bid schedule was determined to be adequate since all quantities can be accurately determined from the contract documents. Spec Section 01 11 00, Subpart 1.16 is not applicable, and will be deleted from the contract documents. An amended Spec Section 01 11 00 is attached.

2. The specs call for critical lift plans, hot work plans, fall protection. Are these plans necessary?

FYI, they drive the cost up.

Answer: These plans are called for in the Specs because the Government wants to be sure that for any approach that the Contractors are going to utilize, the requirement for a written safety plan is included. This is a generic safety and submittal spec that we use for all projects. If a contractor isn't going to use a crane when he builds this road, then he can't write a critical lift plan, and therefore, there should be no additional cost for the preparation of this plan. Fall protection is the same - most likely this won't be needed on this project, but is provided just in case. A contractor shouldn't be charging to generate a fall protection plan if he is not going to need it. But if for some reason a contractor chooses to use a manlift, then the submittal language is provided. In regards to Hot Work, if a Contractor has a piece of equipment break on site, and welding is needed to repair it, then he will need a Hot Work permit."

3. Can the CAD files of the drawings be made available?

Answer: CADD files will be provided to the winning Contractor so that As-built drawings can be generated from them. However, CADD files cannot be made available to prospective bidders.
