Single line diagram shows a new genset by others. Specification 16230 describes a towable diesel generator. Please clarify if a temporary genset is required and if the towable diesel generator is by others?

A15. The Towable (Temporary) Generator shall be purchased, delivered and installed as part of this Contract per Section 16230. Upon removal of the existing generator at Cumber, the temporary generator shall be the standby generator for the station. When the works at Cumber SPS are substantially complete, the temporary generator will become the property of the owner. The "New Genset (By Others)" shown on Dwg. E5006 is not part of this Contract.

Q16. Drawing 1270-2012-15-04 and 1273-2012-14-04

a. General Note 1.6 - Please amend this note, as the contractor does not have any capacity for knowing if the site survey and layout is incorrect. They should not be responsible for trying to guess at time of tender. Any addition work due to this should be an extra to the contract.

meeting. b. The review of the location of overhead utilities was available during the Contractor’s

mandatory site meeting. The location of underground utilities is based on information from as-builts and locates provided by others, therefore, the City and its Consultant are not responsible for its accuracy. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to have utility locates performed prior to commencement of work.

Q17. Drawing 1270-2012-15-08

a. Please confirm that the wet wells can be shut down independently to perform the suction valve removals

A17. The wet wells cannot be isolated. The stations should be bypassed and de-watered for replacement of all suction valves, grinder and any other component in Wet-Well such as float switches, LITs. Contractor is responsible for de-watering and station bypass for as long as it is required. Bypass plan should be proposed to city in advance for review and approval.

a 450 mm valve in under 60 minutes to meet the requirements of the “Quick Install” clause. A18. The operation of the Cumber and West Rouge SPS are critical to the City’s infrastructure. Items

identified as “quick install” items must be replaced without affecting station operations for long periods, which may result in flooding of the wet well. It shall be up to the Contractor to determine the best method to install the “quick install” items while minimizing station down time & risk. This work may need to be done at low flow conditions and scheduled with the City.

Q19. Section 01011, 3.2.1 – Please provide staging drawings to show how each pump can be isolated

during removals to keep the other pumps in service. We have reviewed the sequence and the

WARNING! If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may release lead dust or fumes. LEAD ISTOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST OR FUMES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY INCHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a properly fitted NIOSH-approved respirator and prevent skincontact to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself andyour family by contacting the USEPA National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead. In Canada contact aregional Health Canada office. Follow these instructions to control exposure to other hazardous substances that may be released during surfacepreparation.STEEL: Non-Immersion Service: Minimum surface preparation for ferrous metal substrates is wire brush (SSPC-SP2/3) to remove all loose rust andpaint.

If any oxidation (white rust) has formed, sand and remove all formsof contamination. If the galvanized has been passivated or stabilized, the surface must be abraded, i.e., Brush-Off Blast Clean per SSPC-SP7 orchemically treat the surface.WOOD: Sand lightly in order to remove surface roughness and loose wood fibers.
