A: Not as part of this RFP.
Q: I do notice that RFP#202005BP indicates the box culvert under Sheridan Road may be replaced in the future. I am wondering if verifying FEMA's cross-section data should be included in RFP#202005BP or if this work would possibly be done as part of a separate project.
A: This issue does not need to be addressed as part of the RFP. SMC anticipates IDOT will be replacing the culvert and they do their own permitting through the IDNR.

A: There are posted in the RFP advertisement for download as a PDF.
Q:Regarding geotechnical work, can you clarify are soil borings are available? If not, are they expected to be provided by others?
