MPCA: building demolition - winona GW

***1/8/2025, Addendum #2*** The purpose of this addendum is to answer questions: Q1: Is there water and sewer going into property to be disconnect or just sewer? If so, where is that located? A1: Exact utility locations will need to be verified by the selected Contractor. We are uncertain of the status or locations of all site utilities, but we are aware of an active storm sewer leading to the onsite treatment building on the east side. Q2: What happens if we cannot bring in topsoil till after compaction date due to low temps and freezing dirt pile and are we supposed to put grass seed down and matting? A2: Frozen soil encountered shall not be used for backfill, so imported soil meeting specifications should be used in this case. Depending on weather and soil conditions, the soil excavated and stockpiled on-site shall be covered until soil sampling indicates that it meets the required criteria to be reused (as approved by the Engineer). It should be noted that the onsite treatment building is heated to approximately 40 degrees F and may affect soil beneath the building. Only topsoil placement is included in the specifications. Placing seed is not part of this scope. Q3: Is Attachment E: Reference Form required to be submitted with a response? A3: The Attachment E: Reference Form is not required for this RFB. CLARIFICTION/CORRECTION ON SITE VISIT: Site visit is not mandatory prior to responding. The 'shell' is replaced with 'may' in term EXAMINATION OF SITE (Sample Contract and Exhibits document): EXAMINATION OF SITE.
