Sheet #10 Summary of Quantities Correction: The table on sheet 10 of the plan set incorrectly references Pedestrian Bridge 3 as being the 42'0" structure and Pedestrian Bridge 4 as being the 50'0" structure. Pedestrian Bridge #3 is the 50'0" structure and Pedestrian Bridge 4 is the 42'0" structure. VI. Sheet #10 Structure Descriptions Revisions: The "Structure Descriptions" incorrectly describe Pedestrian Bridge 3 and Pedestrian Bridge 4 as being a 59'8" Prefabricated Steel Truss Bridges. The correct descriptions are: Pedestrian Bridge 3 50'0" PREFABRICATED STEEL TRUSS BRIDGE, CONCRETE DECK, ON CAST IN -PLACE ABUTMENTS OVER NEW MERCER DITCH, FORT COLLINS, COLORADO 14'0' WIDTH, RAILING TO RAILING (15'0" OUT -TO -OUT) Pedestrian Bridge 4 42'0" PREFABRICATED STEEL TRUSS BRIDGE, CONCRETE DECK, ON CAST IN -PLACE ABUTMENTS OVER LARIMER COUNTY NO.2 DITCH, FORT COLLINS, COLORADO 11'6' WIDTH, RAILING TO RAILING (12'6" OUT -TO -OUT) VII. Clarification on Safety Fencing along Easements: Revisions of Section 104 in the Specifications Book states under the "Limits of Construction" that all easements and work areas need to be fenced. This only applies to locations where the trail comes into contact with existing sidewalks and roadways. You will also need to safety fence any holes and drop-offs with safety fence. All these uses should be covered by your traffic control line item. VIII. Clarification on Interim Milestone Dates: There are no interim milestone dates, as the contract is written. On a side note, the successful bidder will have to time his construction so that it coincides with the New Mercer Channel and Larimer County Ditch #2 shut-off date of October 15 and turn on date of March 15. IX. Clarification on Health and Safety Management in the event that hazardous material are encountered: In the event of encountering hazardous materials on the jobsite, the City of Fort Collins will overrun Item 250 -Health and Safety Officer (HSO) quantity for Health and Safety Management. An argument would need to be made for us to justify force account work for the HSO. However, upon encountering hazardous materials onsite, we would need to look at the problem and there may very well be legitimate force account work related to moving and/or disposing of the material. Based on the environmental report that was done, we are not anticipating hazardous materials onsite. X. Clarification on Note 23 in the General Notes on the plans: The primary contractor will keep track of all changes on a master set of drawings in red ink. It will be The City of Fort Collins' responsibility to coordinate it's surveying services with Felsburg, Holt and Ullvig to get the storm sewer verification and any other as -built field elevations/locations and make electronic as -built updates to the plans. XI. Clarification on Note 36 in the General Notes on the plans: Note 36 states: "In Streets where more than one cut is made, an overlay of the entire street width, including the patched are may be required." This provision is for locations where there are more than utility crossings in close proximity to each other. This situation does not occur on this project and therefore the statement does not apply to this project. RECEIPT OF THIS ADDENDUM MUST BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY A WRITTEN STATEMENT ENCLOSED WITH THE BID/QUOTE STATING THAT THIS ADDENDUM HAS BEEN RECEIVED.
