Addendum No. 2, 05/02/18 BL044-18



ITEM NO. 2

QUESTIONS:

The following questions have been received and are answered as follows:

1. What is the project budget?

Answer: There is approved funding for this project. Gwinnett County expects each contractor to bid

a competitive price. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

2. I see the bridges are wooden, can we offer a steel bridge with a wooden deck and railing as an

alternate?

Answer: Prepare your bid based on the wooden bridge as designed. Any Changes to the bridge

design after the contract is executed would require approval of the engineer, and be at no additional

cost to the owner.

3. Also, I only saw drawings for one bridge do you know what page the second is on, or are there two of

the same? The first one is on page 49(C303).

Answer: The details for both bridges are on sheet C805. The curb rail detail (1/C805) applies only

when the height of the bridge is less than 30 inches. Both bridges appear on Sheet C303 – Site Plan

(Trail).

4. Civil drawing details show 4” but structural drawing 12/S301 indicates 6” concrete pad. Please verify

the Splash pad concrete thickness.

Answer: The structural drawings are for the splashpad concrete and 6 inches is the correct

thickness. The Civil drawings only depict the site concrete adjacent to the splashpad. See Section

03-3001 for additional information on the concrete for the splashpad.

5. Please verify if the concrete strip at the bottom of chain link fence is required all around the soccer

field as indicated in 1/C803 & 3/C103.

Answer: Per Detail 1 on Sheet C803, the mowing strip is to be installed under all of the 10 foot

fencing. The mowing strip will also be under the 6 foot fences to the north and south of the field.

Sheets C302 and C803 are being re-issued with this Addendum to clarify this condition.

6. Does the stated mulch quantity in landscape drawings include the temporary trail surface mulch?

Answer: No, the quantity is not included in the Landscape Quantities. All quantities are the

responsibility of the contractor. Mulch trail must be 6 feet wide and 3 inches deep minimum.

Quantity should be included in the base bid. See Sheet C201.

7. On sheet C603, the detail for the compost filter sock seems to be missing.

Answer: This is a standard GSWCC Detail. It was missing the bid set; a copy of the detail is

included in this Addendum.

8. Will the Soccer Field installer need to be a sportsfield installer?

Answer: No, but the field will be laser graded. See Section 32-0513 of the Specifications for

additional information.


Addendum No. 2, 05/02/18 BL044-18



9. What is the bid depth for the helical piles at the bridges?

Answer: See detail on Sheet C805 – each pile to be installed to a minimum depth of 26 vertical feet.

A Unit Price has been added to Section 01-2200 and the Bid Schedule to provide for the adjustment

of depth of the helical piles. Paragraph 1.4B regarding Helical Piles has been added to Section 01-

2200. These revised sections are included as part of this Addendum.

10. Will the structural engineer be present for inspections during the construction of the splashpad

concrete?

Answer: Yes

11. What is the extent of the temporary fencing?

Answer: Tree protection fence is shown on sheet C101. Temporary chain link fence is shown on sheet

C201. Temporary chain link fence is required for the splashpad construction area, but may be needed

elsewhere. It is up to the contractor to protect active construction areas from the public. The park

will be open to the public during construction. See the notes on Sheet C201.

12. What fees is the contractor responsible for paying?

Answer: The County has paid the Land Disturbance Permit fees. The contractor will be responsible

for paying any other permit fees required during construction. See the Special Provisions of the

General Conditions for more information.

13. Will the Notes on Sheet C303 regarding the qualifications of the Trail Builder be enforced?

Answer: Yes. Note that the trail is to be constructed with minimal disturbance to the existing wooded

area.

14. What is the soil mix for the soccer field?

Answer: As noted on Sheet C302, this mix is described in Section 32-0513 of the Specifications.

15. Does the mulch used for the temporary trails need to be removed at the end of the project?

and Erosion Control plans.

shall be designated at the preconstruction meeting.

2.3 COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL CLEAN WATER ACT

A. To maintain compliance with Federal Clean Water Act, the requirements of Georgia’s NPDES

GAR100000 General Permit (The Permit) for construction are to be met in the following

manner:

1. Prior to the commencement of the work, the Owner’s Representative will prepare the

Notice of Intent (NOI) form and submit it to Contractor first for execution. The NOI shall

then be sent to the Owner for final execution. Owner will then mail the executed NOI, by

Certified Mail, to EPD and keep the Receipt Certificate in their project files. A copy of the

NOI and letter to EPD will be mailed to the Owner’s Representative, the Geotechnical

Consultant, the NPDES Testing Agency, and Contractor for their records.

2. A certification statement will be signed by the General Contractor and the grading

subcontractor, stating that they agree to comply with the requirements of the Erosion,

Sedimentation and Pollution Control Plan.

3. INSPECTIONS - Each site is required to be inspected once every twenty-four (24) hours and

after the end of a storm that has 0.5 inches of rainfall or greater as mandated by the

NPDES Permit. The inspector must identify needed changes and revise the drawing

accordingly or certify that the site is in compliance. Once a site is stabilized, inspections

are required daily, weekly and monthly until a Notice of Termination (NOT) is filed with

EPD. EPD staff may have access to records at any time. Inspections are to be done by

“qualified personnel” (as defined in the GAR Permit) employed by and paid by the General

Contractor.

4. A log book will be furnished by Owner to the General Contractor for use in logging in each

inspection required in Item 3. The log book is to be available to the Owner’s

Representative for review at any time. This log book is to be turned over to the Owner at

Project close-out.


5. A copy of the Erosion, Sediment and Pollution Control plan (ESPC) is to be updated by the

General Contractor depicting any corrections or modifications to the ESPC plan as may

occur during the course of the Work. This drawing is to be turned over to the Owner at

Project close-out.

6. At the close-out of the Project and when all site-work has been signed-off on by the

Owner, the Owner will then issue a Notice of Termination to the Georgia EPD.

B. Failure of the General Contractor to properly maintain the prescribed erosion, sediment and

pollution control requirements and after a twenty-four (24-hour) hour written notice from the

Owner, may result in the Owner performing any necessary repairs or shutting down all work

on the Project except work associated with compliance with the ESPC Plan until the site is

considered in compliance with the Permit. A back charge to the Contract price will be done to

compensate the Owner for all expenses incurred through a change order.
