Inquiry #1: Shown on sheet 40, E-4 at station 467+80 is an existing 2" Electrical conduit crossing, note 12. Note 12 states; "Existing 2" C, 2-#4 (240 V), Install 3-#4 (480 V), If necessary, Bore 3" C Under Highway parallel to the existing conduit" . This note is not quantifiable, we need to know if this location gets a new 3"C, Crossing or if we are going to use the existing 2" C. I cannot quantify "IF NECESSARY". Please provide proper direction at this location. Verbiage such as "IF NECESSARY" will leave one bidder adding monies while another bidder may not, which may provide an unfair advantage for the one that deems it not Necessary at bid time and adds no monies. Thank you.
