Addendum #1


May 8, 2017

Question 1.  Please clarify the number of active wells. The informational attachment that LCPW provided has 34 wells that are not decommissioned; however, the bid mentions 35 active wells.

Response:  34 well is the correct number.

Question 2.  Please clarify the “$150,000 total in 2017” and the miscellaneous $30,000 & $60,000 numbers next to well information. Are these budgets for the correlating wells?

Response:  In 2017 we estimate $150,000 on well rehab, this number is based on how many wells fall in the rehab program each year it may be less or more in some years.

Question 3.  Who’s responsibility is water sampling after the work is completed?

Response:  Lake County PW will perform all final sampling once the contractor has completed their installation and test running.

Question 4.  Who’s responsibility is the old/existing pump, once a new pump is installed? Can we leave the pumping equipment onsite?

Response:  All old equipment and piping will be the reasonability of the contractor to remove, unless told by LCPW that they want to save for future usage.

Question 5.  Is there a specified length for the test pumping after installation? Or is this test the pump to verify it is working?

Response:  Test pumping is set up for you to pull the flow performance and make sure you are comfortably in the performance of the equipment your installed.

Question 6.  Are the hourly rates (straight-time, OT, double-time) intended to be for one serviceman in the case that a service call/troubleshoot is required?

Response:  This rate will reflect hourly rate per man. If we call you out  you will make the determination how many crew members it will require to perform the requested task.

Question 7.  How will any shop/machining labor for disassembly of a pump be billed? As the hourly rate as well?

Response:  Under section #2 Pump Repair it explains the requirement for this work.

Question 8.  Would like clarification, Item #5 on the “scope of work”. Is this the entire allotted time for mobilization, removal, reinstallation, testing, and demobilization?

Response:  Yes we will require this unless there is a problem in getting parts or replacement equipment. At that time we would require a notification of the delivery date and then an adjustment of the schedule would be made at that time.
