Design-Build, Repair (Remediate) Airfield Obstructions

The following 4 questions have been received (14-17 Sep 09) and have been responded to by the Government: Question 40: Upon reviewing the revised scope and revised bid schedule for the above referenced project, I have noticed some inconsistencies. Please note: a. CLIN 0005 NORTH MAIN GLIDE SLOPE VAULT: Schedule is requiring the pricing for the vault. The revised SOW per Amendment 1, 1.4 calls for the deletion of the vault. Government Response: The price being requested is for the relocation of the transformer located behind the structure. b. CLIN 0003 NORTH & SOUTH INSTRUMENT LANDING FFP: The schedule is requesting to move both North and South ILS's and include new pads. The revised SOW per Amendment 1, 2.1., deletes the design and installation of the pads. Government Response: The proceeding paragraphs for 0001, paragraph 2.1., have been given, so that the contractor has more information on what is required for these portion of the work. Both the installation of the pads and design will be required. Question 41: Also it appears the CLIN 4, 6, and 7 have been deleted. Government Response: You are correct, CLINS 0004, 0006 and 0007 have been deleted (IAW Amendment 0001). Question 42: Amendment 3 still has amendment 002 issued on 1442. Government Response: There are only two Amendments: Amendment 0001 - Issued on 10 Sep 09, and Amendment 0002 issued on 11 Sep 09. There is no Amendment 0003 - What is on FedBizOpps is an error; we attached the wrong Amendment 0002 (SF 30 document). When we reattached the correct one, it caused the system to create Amendment 0003. Question 43: CLIN 0005: Please provide additional clarification for work involving the North Main Glide Slope Vault & Transformer: a. Is it the intent of the revised statement of work that the existing structure with all electrical components inside (i.e. emergency generator, auto transfer switch, panelboards, disconnects, etc...) remain in place? Government Response: Yes, all the electrical components will remain. b. Is the small medium voltage transformer located on the South side of the existing structure the only piece of equipment to be relocated? Government Response: Yes, the transformer on the south side of the structure is the only peace to be relocated. c. Is the contractor to relocate the transformer to the previously designated Upson Park area or any area outside of the object free zone? Government Response: An area outside of the free zone, and inside the fence line. d. The revised SOW instructs the contractor to connect the relocated transformer back to the main glide slope. Is it the owners' intent that the contractor tie this transformer back into the existing North Main Glide Slope Vault or the actual Glide Slope Antenna Shelter adjacent to the runway? Government Response: The transformer is to be reconnected back to the north main glide slope vault. PLEASE NOTE (17 Sep 09): No further questions will be accepted.
