- Description
- Amendment 0003 is being issued to provide question and answers received and extends the proposal due date to September 3, 2024. 1. After we remove the weldment from the water and all speakers/cable are removed, does USGS want the contractor to disassemble and dispose of the weldment steel off site or does USGS want to keep the weldment steel intact on site? Answer: Please provide pricing for the removal from site and recycling the material and another price for keeping the weldment steel intact on site. 2. Please provide All ""As Built"" drawings from 2021, including confirmation of the positions/routes of all the electrical lines. Answer: See attached document ""140G0220F0140 AS BUILT DRAWINGS"" (compressed), ""LD19_upperWall_cablerouting_version4.2"" (ignore page 5 of this document - that design was not used), ""E-101 Lower Landwall Power Plan"", and ""Trailer Power and Meter, and Electrical Diagrams"". Also, some additional documents that show modifications have been provided. 3. Please provide specifications document from 2021. Answer: See attached information. 4. Please provide site pictures from the 2021 installation, 2022 maintenance and 2024 maintenance. Answer: See L19_pictures_for_contractors. 5. Is it only the cabled hydrophones that need to be taken into consideration for the project? Answer: Correct. 6. Are we correct to assume that none of the wireless hydrophones need to be considered in maintenance or removal? Answer: Correct. 7. Does the autonomous hydrophone on the river side of the I-wall need to be maintained and/or removed within the options in the contract? Answer: All autonomous telemetry hydrophones are maintained by, and will be removed by, USGS. Only the ERDC cabled hydrophones (recording sound) and the USGS cabled hydrophones need to be removed or maintained. 8. Will USGS provide the cable drums/wheels and storage containers for the cabling that will be removed? Answer: All cable reels will be provided by USGS. The contractor will not be responsible for rolling up the cables onto reels. They only need to make sure all cables are removed from the water and from any recessed locations (buried conduit, wall mounted locations or conduit, or in trenches). 9. At what elevation is the steel conduit on the land wall that needs to be removed? Answer: The conduit is at the bottom of the approach channel (approx. EL 466.50 at sound bar and slopes as you move downstream). See ""2021_PreInstall Drawings "" page 25 (note that image is not to scale, but this gives the lengths and locations of conduit). 10. How is the steel conduit anchored and what is the spacing between anchors? Answer: Approximately every four feet. See, ""05 50 13 Misc. Metal Fabrication Shop Drawings"" 11. What maintenance is required for the cables on the riverside? Answer: No maintenance is required for the cables or hydrophones on the river side of the I-wall. The current will likely be too high to access these or vessels may be parked there during a winter/spring maintenance event 12. What biofouling cleaning is required on the removed cables? Answer: Likely, just running a hand along the cables as they are coming out of the water to wash off any algae or mussels. Nothing technical. 13. In the Statement of Work; ""All replacement parts and components shall be new and from the original equipment manufacturer where available"". Who is the original equipment manufacturer? That just means any connectors, screws, etc. that may need to be replaced (damaged) should be new and the same as the originals (or they get approval to use a different one). It probably doesn't apply as much for maintenance or removal, compared to the install. Those components should be listed in the as builts.
