Question
|
Is excavation included?
|
Answer
|
All excavation (rock) is unclassified and considered incidental. This is detailed on page 16 of the RFP...
"Proposers should not price the project with contingencies for either hazardous waste or sinkholes. We do not anticipate either of these items will be found. Should they be encountered (verified by the City), the contractor and City may negotiate a price based on submitted unit prices for remediation to resolve the issue at the City’s option. The City may choose to resolve the issue on its own. All excavations are considered to be unclassified and incidental to the work."

Correct, just restoration of what's disturbed because other projects are planned in the area. The City's Trench Detail will be followed and we may choose the outermost limit of repair.
