JLL-13-1995 16:36 ROBERT DELANEY 303 945 2303 P.03 <br /> We 84 <br /> He said that the lack of specificity in the bid package is a real problem, end he seemed <br /> concowned about not having:keen the actual ground surface,given the snow_ i asked <br /> him what seerned to be driving the costs, and he mentioned several things, as hollows: <br /> Sftt <br /> He said that the cost of installation is substantial, requires a lot of labor and, the way <br /> DMG wants it put up(8,enters,metal posts)will require a couple of machines to work. <br /> At the same time, he never found a spec. on the silt fence itself,namely how high, what <br /> thickness. etc. The bid package is very vague,other than calling for quite a lot of silt <br /> fence 06W on the bench. +4W below, if needed). Also,he said It would take only <br /> one rock falling down the hillside to wipe out a substantial portion of the sift fend, <br /> and DMG would expect the contractor to replace it. given the country and the work to <br /> be done, one can eVeCt rockfail. It might be more practical to install this sift fencing <br /> after the worts was done, except of cokxse it would not stand up to the winter oonditions <br /> and avalanching. <br /> bowtconuaaction <br /> He was Worried about finding snow and permafrost under the dirt,which would be a <br /> muddy, boggy mess and give problems with the acquired compaction of the material. <br /> Also, this could would delay work, and"they only give us 53 days to do this work," and <br /> there are penafties for being late. <br /> BwAuse the ground was snowcovered at the time of the pr"id meeting, he is <br /> uncertain of conditions at the site. He mentioned that the Second A*Iendurn ells for <br /> clean-up of trash/garbage, and that this could be vary time consurrfing as it would mean <br /> having to screen the dirt, and there is an unknown quantity of trash. <br /> IMMUM <br /> As far as the foundations,they would have Jay Parker come in and blast ext"Wely; <br /> there is no point in trying to dig them out with equipment. There was some discussion <br /> at the pre-bid meeting about the concrete bases for the conveyor tine. Smns <br /> contractors had talked about pulling them down with a gain; however, he doesn't think <br /> that will work. The thing to do is blast, he said. <br /> seedlMutch <br /> They are"not so familiar"with seeding and mulching but figure they couid probably do <br /> it.. Rather then hire a sub-contractor, however.they ftpixe it would be cheaper to obtain <br /> the equipment. Of course, all of that has a cost. <br /> Page 2 <br />
