NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS

Addendum No. 1

Contract No.: PRB.32631

Federal Aid No.: Helene Relief

TIP No.: N/A

WBS Element: 51830.2.13.40

Letting Date: March 11, 2026

This letter is to advise all prospective bidders of the following contract addendum:

Proposal Changes: Permits have been added - (See P1-P60).

Plan Changes: Roadway, Erosion Control, Traffic and Geotech have been added.

Additional Questions Submitted:

1. The plan details show after installing the H piles, we then need to install a nailer

on the back of the pile and then secure the lagging to the nailer. This means

putting someone in the excavation cut to the depth shown. Following OSHA

guidelines for sloping, we would expect the top of the excavation to extend back

into NC-9. At a 1 ½:1 best case scenario our excavation would taper back 21’

from back of cap. The plan sheet shows a shear cut. The other option would be

shoring NC-9 but there are cost issues with this solution and possible utility

issues. Additionally, due to this excavation, it is likely that temp traffic signals

and a permanent lane closure would be required. There is another concern with

the property owner being able to maintain the wall after construction. They will

have no access to remove the lumber once the fill is placed and due to the

proximity of the bridge to NC-9 potentially causing roadway issues on NC-9 that

NCDOT would be responsible for.

Response: After review, we believe there are shielding systems available to safely

construct the end bents as designed. While we acknowledge it may be

difficult for the property owner to replace timbers in the future, this does not

seem to be a constructability concern.

Sincerely,

Chad Loftis
