Pre-Bid Conference MINUTES Page 4

Question: Is the fiber cable being brought to the building by someone else or where does this come from? If so, will it be left long enough to go from the handhole to the fiber panel. If so, will they also handle the terminations?

Answer: In accordance with Drawing C106, all fiber optic cable will be provided by others (meaning the force main contractor, which will bid in July). The intent is for enough fiber optic to reach the lift station electrical room plus 50 feet of slack, which will be coiled in a junction box at the contract interface point where indicated. The Lift Station contractor will pull the coiled fiber optic cable provided by others to the lift station electrical room and make terminations as shown on the Network Diagram on Drawing E105.

Question: According to drawing E105, the fiber panel will also house the fiber to Ethernet switch. Will we also need a 120V receptacle in or near the panel for switch power?

Answer: Yes, provide need a receptacle inside the panel to feed a power strip.

Question: On the disconnect switches for the 100 HP VFD Raw Wastewater Pumps 1, 2, and 3 do you want auxillary switches installed in them to prevent VFD start while disconnect is in the off position. If so, will these wire back to the VFD or to the PLC panel?

Answer: Contacts are shown on Drawing E106 – Detail 1 (P-1-5-1 Pump Schematic). Provide wiring from disconnects back to VFD’s. This will be addressed as a part of Addendum No. 1.

Question: Can cables shown on the electrical one-line and PLC one-line diagrams be combined or do you want a conduit for each as detailed on E104 and E105? For example, the Ethernet cable from VFD to PLC shows a 1” conduit for each, but all 3 would fit in one 1” conduit piped from PLC and jumpered between each VFD?

Answer: Circuits can be combined, but need to keep each type separate (power, digital, analog, ect), If you are adding the Ethernet cables together, this conduit should be increased to 1-1/2" at a minimum. Still need to follow fill requirement for Ethernet cables.

XIII. Site Investigation

In accordance with the project specifications and City of Sioux Falls General Conditions, the Bidder is allowed, and encouraged, to investigate the site prior to bidding.

violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).

----------------------------------------------------------------

The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers

A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those

Page 3 of 5


classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

----------------------------------------------------------------

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

* an existing published wage determination * a survey underlying a wage determination * a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter * a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board

Page 4 of 5


U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

DESCRIPTION AIR-SHIELD LSR (liquid synthetic rubber) is an asphalt-free, single-component, synthetic rubber based liquid air/vapor and liquid moisture barrier. AIR-SHIELD LSR cures to form a tough, seamless, elastomeric membrane, which exhibits excellent resistance to air and moisture transmission.

USES AIR-SHIELD LSR has been specifically formulated to act as an air/vapor and liquid moisture barrier within the building envelope. It may be applied to most common surfaces and integrated into various wall systems. AIR-SHIELD LSR is suitable for both new construction and restoration.

FEATURES/BENEFITS • Non-asphaltic – designed to meet stringent fire code

requirements. • Low permeability - prevents the transmission of air and

inhibits moisture and vapor from passing through porous building materials.

• Highly flexible - bridges cracks, which may form in the substrate.

• Environmentally compatible - AIR-SHIELD LSR is non-toxic.

• User friendly – single-component, water-based technology allows for simple, safe application and easy cleanup.

• Liquid applied - simplifies detailing and assures a monolithic, seamless membrane when applied to a rough or smooth surface.

• Sprayable - with appropriately configured airless spray equipment - low application costs.

• Excellent adhesion - remains firmly bonded to the substrate, even when applied over damp surfaces.

• Low VOC content (<100 g/L). Produces no harmful odors.

• Compatible with asphalt-based emulsion products. • UV resistant – membrane can be left exposed up to four

months.

R. MEADOWS at least two hours before application.

Application Method … AIR-SHIELD LSR may be applied by spraying or a 3/4" (19.1 mm) minimum nap roller. (For recommendations on spray equipment, consult W. R. MEADOWS technical staff.) AIR-SHIELD LSR may be sprayed on at the minimum coverage rate of approximately 17 - 22 ft.2/gal. (0.42 - 0.54 m2/L) (75 mils wet) (40 mils dry). Note: For roller applications or during periods of extremely hot weather, two coats may be necessary if the material begins to slump. Apply second coat after first coat has completely dried, approximately one to two hours after first coat. Frequently inspect surface area with a wet mil gauge to ensure consistent thickness. Work material well into any fluted rib forming indentations. Porous masonry block walls may require additional coats to obtain desired thickness. Curing and Drying ... Allow material to dry at air and surface temperatures of 20° F (-6.7° C) or higher. Curing times will be affected by relative humidity, temperature and airflow. The following times are given for average conditions

and standard thicknesses. Actual times may differ, depending on specific conditions present on job at time of application. It is recommended that AIR-SHIELD LSR be allowed to air dry to a tack-free film before application of specified insulation. Maximum exposure time for AIR-SHIELD LSR is four months. Tack-free film: 2 hours Full cure: 48 hours

Cleanup … Uncured AIR-SHIELD LSR cleans up easily while wet with water. Cured material is best removed by xylene or by mechanical means.

PRECAUTIONS AIR-SHIELD LSR is not designed to perform as a permanently exposed membrane. Maximum UV exposure period for membrane is four months. Keep containers tightly sealed. KEEP FROM FREEZING. Do not apply AIR-SHIELD LSR if rainfall or snow is forecast within 12 hours.
