SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 0003

1. Does the Contractor have to be local to qualify for this IFB, or can they be from another state? There appears to be conflicting specs on this subject.

SECTION 33 71 01 Page 7 “1.4.2 Installer Qualifications Contractor or sub-contractor hired to install poles and aerial conductors shall be a contractor regularly engaged in the installation of utility poles in the local area and in accordance with the local utility, Eversource, specifications.”

-And-

SECTION 33 71 02 Page 8

” 1.4.2 Cable Installer Qualifications Provide at least one onsite person in a supervisory position with a documentable level of competency and experience to supervise all cable pulling operations. Provide a resume showing the cable installers' experience in the last three years, including a list of references complete with points of contact, addresses and telephone numbers. Cable installer must demonstrate experience with a minimum of three medium voltage cable installations. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to require additional proof of competency or to reject the individual and call for an alternate qualified cable installer.”

Government Response: Installation of the new Poles and OH lines will need to meet Eversource standards, therefore 33 71 01 page 7. Cable installation refers to the underground conduits which are Government Owned, thus the slightly different requirement. The same installer is not required for both tasks.

2. In reference to the above solicitation, we are hereby requesting a clarification, determination and/or information concerning the following:

Specification Section No(s): 33 71 01 – Underground Electrical Distribution Reference Drawing No(s): ES-503

Request: In reference to EMH-2 and CMH-2 are precast electrical and communication manholes acceptable?

Government Response: Precast manholes are acceptable.

3. In reference to the above solicitation, we are hereby requesting a clarification, determination and/or

W912WJ21B0005

Specification Section No(s): 33 71 01 – Underground Electrical Distribution Reference Drawing No(s): ES-503

Request: Can the duct bank be installed with the electrical conduits running side by side horizontally next to the communication conduits in lieu of running on top of vertically? Reference attached sketch keeping the required 12” spacing as well as providing both electric and communication warning tapes.

Note: Sketch attached to email.

Government Response: Conduits may run side by side with the required 12” separation between power and communication.

4. In reference to the above solicitation, we are hereby requesting a clarification, determination and/or

Specification Section No(s): N/A Reference Drawing No(s): ES-101

Request: Please provide the point of contact for the Utility modification.

Government Response: It is the Contractor’s responsibility to prepare an Eversource work request for the electrical service upgrade. The project doesn’t have a specific point of contact and the Contractor can start the utility coordination effort by calling 888-633-3797 or via contacting eversource.com.
