If you consider the questions proprietary, please clearly mark them as such. Summary Scope of Work Design: A 30% conceptual design package which conveys the Government's design intent will be provided with the Phase II Solicitation. The design package will include plans, specifications, a geotechnical exploration report, and a recent site survey. The Contractor will be responsible for continuing this design package to completion. Contractor-generated CAD drawings must be in Bentley DGN format. Construction: Proposed construction features are divided into two primary categories: (1) wall repair/replacement and (2) vehicle and pedestrian bridge replacement. The project is a lava rock wall channel; the channel dimensions are approximately 24 feet wide, 8 feet deep, and 0.9 miles long. Wall repair/replacement work may include: mortar repointing, concrete walls, concrete blocks, geotextiles, drainage culverts, irrigation systems, fencing, waterstop installation, road reconstruction, pavements, and pavement striping. Bridge replacement work may include: demolition of roadway culverts, demolition of pedestrian bridges, traffic control, installation of new roadway bridges, installation of new pedestrian bridges, and road reconstruction. The bridges will include reinforced concrete decks, railings, abutments, and wingwalls. Technical Experience: Reinforced concrete roadway bridges with a span of at least 24 feet but no greater than 50 feet that were designed in accordance with Idaho Transportation Department's (ITD's) LRFD Bridge Design Manual. Pedestrian bridges with a span of at least 24 feet but no greater than 50 feet that were designed in accordance with AASHTO's LRFD Guide Specifications for the Design of Pedestrian Bridges. Stone masonry wall mortar repointing projects. Concrete retaining wall projects with a height of 8 feet or higher. Hydraulic modeling capabilities to complete a hydraulic analysis and provide a report similar to the Bridge Hydraulics Report required by ITD (see Idaho Transportation Department Bridge Hydraulics Manual) This is not an ITD project and may not be subject to the same design criteria and software requirements, but the level of analysis will be similar. An existing conditions model will be provided in HEC-RAS 6.6 with 2-D meshes generated in HEC-RAS 2025. HEC-RAS is the US Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center's River Analysis System. Personnel Experience to include a designer of record (DoR) with a civil or structural professional engineer license registered in the State of Idaho. General Questions: What do you identify as the high risks in this project? What experience does your company have with hydraulic modeling? Do you have an existing relationship with a subcontractor that does hydraulic modeling? The in-water work window for this project is 10 October 2026 through 31 March 2027. What challenges do you anticipate with this work window? Please see attached notice for photos.
