GENERAL QUESTIONS
1. On the CT-2 selection, “ICESTONE-AURORA GOLD” – this color has been discontinued.
Is there another color we should substitute for this selection?
CT-2 to be ICESTONE - AMBER PEARL.
2. South Transit Center Park & Ride – does line item for the removal of structures and
obstructions include the Hazardous Material Removal cost?
Yes.
3. Tactile Warning Strips – Sheet A1.2 refers GC’s to the landscape drawings. Landscape
drawings refer us to the civil drawings. Civil drawings call out this work but do not provide
us with a specification. Please provide a specification. I have attached a zip file from a
subcontractor / supplier that provides a possible specification and product for your
reference.
Add attached specification 02755 - Detectible Warning Strips to the construction
documents.
4. What is the length or height of the thermoplastic arrows and “BUSES ONLY” letters?
Arrows are 9.5’ and letters are 8’, per MUTCD guidelines.
5. On sheet C2.0 north side the hatched area has notes 14 and 31 that indicate concrete.
On sheet LS1.0 these areas are noted as crusher fines. Please clarify if this area is
concrete, crusher fines, or a combination of the 2.
The curved walk shown at the north end of the site that is hatched and related and
Keynotes 14,31,35,36 and 37 is to be stabilized crusher fines as defined on sheet LS1.0
and attached Section 02730 STABILIZED CRUSHER FINES.
6. Is there a specification for the solar powered bike pump shown on sheet D3.0?
See Sheet D3.0, Detail 1 for specifications.
7. Is casework shown on detail B2/A8.1 a part of alternate 1 or a part of base bid?
This casework is to be included in Add Alternate No. 1.
8. On sheet ID2 in men’s and women’s restroom 102 and 104 vanity counter are noted as
CT-1 and CT-2 Icestone. On sheet A8.0 and A8.1 detail A4 they are noted a Plastic

The countertops in room MEN 102 and WOMEN 104 are to be 'ICESTONE' as defined on
sheet ID2, as opposed to plastic laminate as indicated on this sheet.
9. Is it acceptable to change Spirovent to 2" as primary piping in boiler room is 2" piping?
No, the 2” Spirovent is physically larger and is not required.
10. Please clarify that the Tekmar controls are for radiant control only.
Correct, see the specification for the additional temperature control requirements.
11. Specification Section 02270, 3.03, G states to “provide drainage features as shown on the
drawings or required by site conditions to relieve hydrostatic pressure behind the retaining
walls”. Please provide a design for the drainage system. I doubt the city would want this
design left up to a subcontractor.
See sheet C3.9 and C3.10 for details related to the retaining wall fill and drainage.
12. Soils report, page 6 has two types of traffic areas - automobile parking and bus access
lanes. For the east parking lot are the drive lanes considered automobile parking or bus
access lanes? If neither, what thickness should be bid for the asphalt and base?

responsible for the builders risk policy on this project?
No. The City will carry the Builder’s Risk Policy.
15. Sheet A3.0 calls for an A45 Projection Screen; however, both the Reflected Ceiling Plan
and the Platform Reflected Ceiling Plan do not indicate this Keynote. Please clarify that
this note is not used on this sheet.
Reference does exist on Sheet A3.0, Detail A2.
16. Sheet A1.1 calls for A65 Payphone Pedestal; however, both the Clerestory Window Plan
and the Floor Plan do not use this Keynote. Please clarify that this note is not used on this
sheet.
Reference does exist on Sheet A1.1, Detail A2.
17. The Davis Bacon General Decision provided in the documents does not have a category
that applies to landscaping other that common laborer; is the common laborer wage rate
what Landscape Contractors are to use?
Please see the attached Davis Bacon Heavy wage rates.
18. Reference Details B4 and A5 on Sheet A7.4; these details depict a wall type EW10
running north to south along grid lines 12 and 15. The wall type details on sheet A7.0 do
not detail a wall type EW10. Please provide a detail for this wall type.
Wall Type EW10 is defined as follows: 5/8" roof cover board over 2" of rigid insulation
over 5/8" glass-mat sheathing over 6" metal studs with 5/8" gypsum board at interior
surface; use R-19 Batt insulation to fill stud cavity. RE: Structural for slip track
requirements.
19. Reference Section 01010-1.08-F “Work by Others”, which states that “Contractor shall
furnish and install the exterior telephone cubicle as specified herein and the empty conduit
runs and junction boxes shown on the drawings”. Please verify the location and
necessary conduit runs for the Pay Telephones as I am not seeing them shown on the
drawings.
The pay telephone location is shown on A1.1 keynote 65 and in details A4/A1.3 and
A3/A4.0.
PRICING QUESTIONS
1. Erosion Log. We are unsure of the meaning of this Term. We do not find this term used
on the plans or in the specification. The item is defined by a LF Unit designation. Again
the term ½ is used, we are unsure of what the line is so we are unsure of what ½ is used
to designate.
This item is to designate 'wattles' for erosion control.
2. Storm Drainage Excavation, Backfill, 18” RCP on and offsite.
18” RCP on Site – The Quantity is not the same as our take off and we are not sure if the
Unit Cost should include the Outfall Structure, Flared Ends, Catch Basins and Type 13
Inlets.
The contractor is to bid what is listed on the bid schedule and we will negotiate any
discrepancies based on the unit costs provided.
18” RCP off Site – The Quantity is not the same as our take off and we are not sure if we
are to include the connecting to existing, Flared Ends, Tapping the existing Catch
Basin/Inlet.
The contractor is to bid what is listed on the bid schedule, which includes connecting to
existing, Flared Ends and Tapping the existing Catch Basin/Inlet, and we will negotiate
any discrepancies based on the unit costs provided.
Excavation and Backfill do not match our take off.
The contractor is to bid what is listed on the bid schedule and we will negotiate any
discrepancies based on the unit costs provided.
3. Tree 2 ½” Ornamental. As this product is not used on the project we will need Botanical
Name or a Common Name so we can price the new item.
These are to be the 1-1/2" as defined in the drawings not 2-1/2" as listed on the bid
schedule.
4. Tree – 3” Shade Tree – There are nine different types of Shade Trees/Deciduous Trees on
the project for a total of 38 in the Park and Ride portion of the project. Which one of the 9
trees do you want the Unit Price for? If we take that price times the 42 Bid Quantity it will
not have any bearing on the project. As there are a lot of different Unit Prices for this item
and a dispute in Quantity this may be a lump sum item rather than a unit.
The bid schedule does ask for a lump sum price rather than and unit price; the 42
indicates the total number of trees that should be part of this lump sum price.
5. Pipe Bollards – We have not been able to find any Bollards in the Park and Ride portion of
the project nor a detail for contemplated Bollards. Please provide a detail.
Provide four (4) 6" diameter pipe bollards per the attached detail on sheet AD#2. Two (2)
bollards are to be placed east of the trash enclosure and two (2) bollards are to be placed
south of the electrical transformer. All of the bollards are in the South Transit Center not
the Park and Ride boundary.
6. Are there any extra items (Ex. Radio's) that need to come with the Toro central control
package?
The Toro central control package is not required. During shop drawing review submit data
for a Rain Bird LXME with WR2 rain and freeze sensor.
7. The Bid Schedule does not have a place for the new 20 Gallon Norway Spruce Trees;
where are we to include these 20 trees on the Bid Schedule?
These trees will be part of the South Transit Center lump sum bid.
LANDSCAPE QUESTIONS
1. Landscape Sheet L2.0 has 4 plant types listed. However there locations are not drawn on
the plan. The plant types are: 6 ea HE-SE, 7 ea SP-FL , 11 ea LI-LO and 4 ea JU-BR. Are
these plants to be included in the bid?
We have verified HE SE, SP FL, and JU BR and cannot find the discrepancies believed to
exist; as such, these plants should be included in the bid. 69 LI LO were shown on plans;
only 61 LI LO exist (discrepancy of 8 LI LO). A total of 61 LI LO should be included in the
bid.
2. There are 19 new 20 gallon Norway Spruce trees on the project. Where are they to be
represented on the bid schedule?
These trees will be part of the South Transit Center lump sum bid.
3. Addenda # 1 pricing question # 12 states landscape accessories would be things such as
edging, fabric and mulch. As a landscape subcontractor we are bidding on the permeable
pavers, the Basalt Columns, the Mexican Beach Cobble , the Segmental Retaining wall
and the Crusher Fines. Are these items to be included in the Seeding and Landscape
Accessories category?
These items should be included with the South Transit Center lump sum bid.
4. Is landscape edger to be installed to the shrub beds along the eastern and western
property boundaries?
No.
5. Should the Landscape Maintenance be included in the Seeding and Landscape
Accessories category? If no where should the landscape maintenance value be
represented. ?

================================================================
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within
the scope of the classifications listed may be added after
award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses
(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).
----------------------------------------------------------------
The body of each wage determination lists the classification
and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the
cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage
determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical
order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular
rate is union or non-union.
Union Identifiers
An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with
characters other than "SU" denotes that the union
classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that
classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2011. The
first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and
the four-digit number, 0198, that follows indicates the local
union number or district council number where applicable ,
i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the
example, is an internal number used in processing the wage
determination. The date, 07/01/2011, following these
characters is the effective date of the most current
negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be
July 1, 2011 in the above example.
Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any
changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the
rate.
Non-Union Identifiers
Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived
from survey data by computing average rates and are not union
rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may
include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007
5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union rates, LA
indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the
survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the
wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates
the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued
as a General Wage Determination on that date.
Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change
until a new survey is conducted.
----------------------------------------------------------------
WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can
be:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on
a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling
On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests
for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour
Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted
because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the
Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial
contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)
and 3.) should be followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal
process described here, initial contact should be with the
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an
interested party (those affected by the action) can request
review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator
(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:
Wage and Hour Administrator
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the
interested party's position and by any information (wage
payment data, project description, area practice material,
etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.
3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an
interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative
Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:
Administrative Review Board
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
