RE: BID 20260211, INDIAN SPRINGS CEMETERY BANK STABILIZATION, ADDENDUM NO. 8

BID DUE DATE: MARCH 18, 2026 @ 2:00 PM EST

Bidders are hereby notified that this addendum shall be made a part of the above-named proposal and contract

documents.

The following is issued to modify, and/or clarify the proposal and contract documents. These items shall have the same

force and effect as the original bid and contract documents, and bids to be submitted on the specified date shall conform

with the additions, deletions and revisions as listed herein.

ITEM # 1 QUESTIONS/ANSWERS

Q1: Please clarify the contractor’s responsibility for providing archaeological services during excavation. Is

the contractor only required to have one (1) archaeologist onsite during excavation activities? Also, is the

contractor responsible for providing a Technical Memorandum detailing the monitoring results, including an

updated FMSF form? If significant archaeological deposits, human remains, or a significant site are

encountered, will the contractor also be responsible for the additional analysis and write-up, or will the County

assume responsibility for those services? Also, to be clear, will there be a change order if an archaeological

site is discovered for making up of lost time due to the site delay?

A1: Only one (1) archaeologist would be required on site during excavation. Any additional services or procedures

required due to the unearthing of remains/artifacts would be the responsibility of the archaeologist. Any additional fees

associated with this would be the responsibility of the County. If work is significantly delayed or stopped entirely, change

orders may be used to add additional time to the contract if needed. The requirements as identified in the plans per

DOHR are below:

BID NO. 20260211, ADDENDUM NO. 8

Q2: Please provide details for the proposed sediment basin containment systems. The plans reference

Specification Section 104, but the contract documents do not define the requirements for this item. Please

clarify.

A2: Specification Section 104 refers to FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction: SECTION 104

PREVENTION, CONTROL, AND ABATEMENT OF EROSION AND WATER POLLUTION.

Q3: The summary of pay items on page C1C, pay item 0104-7 calls for 6 ea. Sediment Basin/Containment

System. Where would I find that feature of work in the bid drawings?

A3: The sediment basin containment system locations are shown in the plans, see sheet C16.

Q4: On bid drawing sheet C15 there are 2 rectangles blocked out and they are called planting area, (See planting

area detail sheet) Where would I find that page? Also, there doesn’t appear to be a pay item for this feature.

A4: There is no planting required. Please delete these instructions from the plans.

Q5: What is the engineer’s expectation for attachment of the gabion baskets to the geogrid? Are they only

requesting attachment to the basket and not into the hillside? If several baskets are connected together as shown

in sheet C11 are we only connecting the baskets to each other?

A5: Connections should be per manufacturer’s recommendations.

Q6: Station 13+79 shows a steep slope for the gabion baskets, this amount of weight if the hillside were to

become saturated would tear the geogrid. Would the county allow for manta ray anchors to install into the hillside

attaching to the gabion baskets?

A6: The geogrid is per the geotechnical engineer’s recommendations. Alternative designs will not be considered during

the bidding process.

Q7: What is the total length of the sheet pile wall in linear feet? The drawings show it to be around 300 LF but

DEP says that the wall is 500 LF.

A7: The wall is to be constructed per the plans.

This addendum is binding and is to be considered as if contained within the original bid documents of Bid No. 20260211.

Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum on their bid forms.
