CUJ'Vei <br />ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS: A Summary of Questions expressed by Contractors <br />at the Pre -Bid Conference with official responses are as follows: <br />I . Q: Is there a concern about potential gas line conflicts? <br />R: The approximate horizontal location of the gas line is shown on the <br />Plans. Depth is unknown. The potholing Pay Item is for sewer and water, <br />but the Contractor will need to locate the gas line. If gas is determined b <br />the Contractor to be in conflict with the proposed work coordination with <br />NIPSCO will be required. NIPSCO has indicated a willingness to resolve <br />potential gas line conflicts in a reasonable time frame, but the Contractor <br />should document delays due to utility relocations if such delays impact <br />project schedule. <br />2. Q: Can the overhead power lines be de -energized? <br />R: Utilities are aware of the project. The Contractor should coordinate with <br />AEP as to the potential for de -energizing or shielding the overhead power <br />lines. It may not be possible to fully de -energize the overhead lines due to <br />the potential impacts to customers. It was suggested that both NIPSCO <br />and AEP be invited to the pre -construction meeting. <br />3. Q: The proposed culvert appears to be close to the existing concrete <br />training walls. <br />R: These training walls are noted as retaining walls on Plan Sheet 9, and <br />designated to be removed by the Contractor in the Plans and Pay Items. <br />Enclosures: Revised Plans (17 pages) <br />PreBid Conference Meeting Agenda and Sign -In (3 Pages) <br />Revised Bid Forms (2 Pages) <br />7 of 7 <br />
