RESPONSES TO BIDDERS’ QUESTIONS QUESTION NO. 186: In Addendum No 1, Question 6, the City did not answer the original question. Does the price for Unclassified Excavation – Undercut and Backfill include the costs for hauling and disposing of excavated material off-site? Or will the haul off and disposal be paid for as Unclassified Excavation, Off-site? RESPONSE: Per Specification P-152, all costs associated with Unclassified Excavation – Undercut and Backfill, including hauling and disposing on or off-site, are included in the per cy cost of the pay item. The contractor may limit the amount required to be hauled off-site by mitigating excess moisture, segregating, and other measures intended on keeping the usable material on Airport property. No separate payment will be made for materials required to be hauled off-site under this pay item. QUESTION NO. 187: On plan sheet GI-009, issued under Addendum No 1, Staging and Storage Areas – note 5 was changed indicating that Excess soils, excess milled asphalt concrete, bituminous concrete rubble, Portland cement concrete rubble, and unsuitable excavations must be disposed of at approved locations on site or off airport property as directed by the commissioner. The cost for onsite disposal and off-site disposal are dramatically different. Please confirm that all soils that the Commissioner directs to leave airport property will be paid under Unclassified Excavation, Off-site. How will the City pay the Contractor to dispose of asphalt or concrete off-site? RESPONSE: All non-contaminated excavated soils that the Commissioner directs to leave airport property, except for material included in the pay item Unclassified Excavation – Undercut and Backfill, will be paid under Unclassified Excavation, Off-site. All ADDENDUM NO. 3 – MARCH 7, 2017 3 OF 6 CITY OF CHICAGO SPECIFICATION NO.: 333636 DEPARTMENT OF PROCUREMENT SERVICES RUNWAY 9C-27C BID PACKAGE #1 FEDERALLY FUNDED JAMIE L. RHEE CHIEF PROCUREMENT OFFICER recyclable asphalt and concrete materials are assumed to remain on airport property for processing. Per Specification 02245 Subpart 6.01, deleterious material associated with recycling PCC and Asphalt will be removed and disposed off-site and is included in the associated pay items. QUESTION NO. 188: Will the bid the bid date for this project be changed? Per addendum both the 9C-27C Bid Package #1 Spec. No 333636 and Taxiway Z/J and Tank Farm Road Spec. No. 311695 bids are now due on the same date, 3/2/2017. Due to this dual bid submission date, there are concerns that the DBE contractors selected may become over committed if utilized on both projects that are being bid simultaneously. In doing a quick budget for the Sewer work on 9C-27C it is over $10,700,000 and the budget for the DBE Sewer work on Taxiway Z/J is over $13,000,000, which is $23,700,000. The allowable DBE per IDOT is $23,000,000. This will put the DBE sewer sub out of the DBE program after these projects. Also the electrical is $30,000,000 and $13,000,000. If we gave one sewer sub or one electrician all of their respective work they may exceed their annual work limit and jeopardize their DBE status as a result. At time of bid, how can we chose which sub to turn in on which projects. We request that the two mentioned contracts be let on separate dates in order to maximize the use of DBE firms without over commitment.” RESPONSE: Addendum #2 moved the Bid Opening Date to March 10. QUESTION NO. 189: Per question 176 on addendum 1, it states that, “It is anticipated that all required Ca-1 and Ca-6 will be made available by on-airport crushing activities.” Is this the same if we run short of RCB? RESPONSE: Yes. As specified in “PART THREE OF THREE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS SECTION 02245 - RECYCLED CRUSHED CONCRETE AND ASPHALT” it is anticipated that all required CA-1, CA-6, and RCB will be made available by this contracts on-airport crushing activities. QUESTION NO. 190: Per sheet S4-9 under AREA 1D; it states that we are not allowed to start working in this area until the GRE is relocated. The duration of the relocation of the GRE is 120 calendar days. 1D is a very large area and will take more than 3 or 4 months to complete. Also, the GRE is only in the overlay area of 1D. Can this be stated that 1D cannot be completed until the GRE is relocated? RESPONSE: Area 1D can begin work once Area 1A taxiway closures have been implemented.
