A1. Per SOW contractor is to provide a Report to also include the feasibility of infilling the underground structure with gravel, flowable fill or an alternative type of fill to prevent structure collapse. The VA has no preference on fill type. Type of fill must prevent underground structure from collapsing. Q2. Is the intent to remove the visible Check Valve protruding through the ground? A2. Removal of check valve is not included in scope of work. Q3. Would it be acceptable to fill the vault with sand? A3. Contractor may provide sand as a potential fill option in their findings report.

VA rough measurements estimate the structure to be 40,000 cubic feet. Q6. Has the VA done any investigation into the vault (scoping it with a camera, etc). Please provide any information available. A6. VA has not done any investigation into the vault. Q7. Will pricing the infill of the vault be a contract modification? A7.
