Signature of Contractor and Date
The following statements supersede & supplement the corresponding items in the specifications & drawings:
1. Question: If possible, please provide details for concrete sheet pile panels. Dimensions and reinforcement details.
Answer: Reference plans in public files folder.
2. Question: Please provide geotechnical report if possible.
Answer: Reference plans in public files folder.
3. Question: Please confirm not rock/hard strata with high N values excavation and drilling for the piles is expected.
Answer: Reference plans in public files folder.
4. Question: Sheet CM-3.1 shows boat ramp by Tedder. We have received the quote from Tedder only on first bottom 60 linear feet and approximately 1500 sq and he will leave tie in dowels for general contractor to proceed above high mean water.. Tedder told us that we as general contractor responsible to pour the rest of the boat ramp slab as cast in place. They refused to give us a full price for the whole ramp of 3500 square feet. Please confirm if this is acceptable? Also due to limitations to access copyright drawing of Tedder boat ramp how general contractor suppose to know what mix design, base , reinforcement to be used to pour the rest of the ramp. Is it ok only bottom 60 linear feet will be pre-stressed but the rest will be regular cas in place and not prestressed? Please advise and or provide drawing for Tedder boat ramp.
Answer: We understood the boat ramp design would be a final product from Tedder with them preparing specialty engineering shop drawings as needed for construction. With that being said, the contractor would be responsible to hire Tedder and get final shop drawings made for team approval prior to constructing the boat ramp. I'm not sure the history of why Tedder was spec'd out from the beginning but in my early contact with the representative there, they were very hesitant to provide information without being under contract. With that being said, I think the bidders need to make it clear to Tedder that they would be hired as a "design-build" with the potential marine GC.
5. Question: Tedder boat ramp representative advised that slopes shown for the ramp are not achievable? Please advise.
Answer: If Tedder has a different slope / ramp profile in mind that can be reviewed after they provide formal shop drawings for project team review.
6. Question: Will a builder's risk policy be required? If so, please provide value, limits, etc.
Answer: No, builder's risk will not be required for this project.
7. Question: Will an installation floater be acceptable in lieu of a builder's risk policy.
Answer: No, and installation floater will not be required for this project.
8. Question: Will the contractor be required to pay the County Building Department fees?
Answer: Yes
9. Question: How will the contractor get paid if a queen conch moves into the project and stays for a week or two?
Answer: A CO for impacts of delays associated with Queen Conch can be submitted for consideration by the Project Manager.
10. Question: Please clarify/identify the project footprint.
Answer: Reference plans in public files folder.
11. Question: Please clarify the scope of work for this project. The description is for the south boat ramp replacement, yet there are documents in the bid package for the north boat ramp as well as the north bulkhead.
Answer: Reference plans in public files folder.
In all other respects, the contract documents of which this is an Addendum, and attachments relative thereto, shall remain in full force and effect.
