Addenda Approval for Funded Projects
An increasing number of funded projects are being bid containing one or more addenda to the approved plans and specifications that have not been submitted nor approved by our office. Many of these addenda contain major modifications requiring a new or revised permit. As stated in our plans and specifications approval letter, ALL addenda must be submitted by the Recipient such that adequate time is allowed for review/approval action by the State, and for subsequent bidder action prior to receipt of bids. Failure to submit addenda for review and approval prior to receipt of bids may significantly delay contract award. It is also a violation of GS 143-215.1 to award construction contracts without the proper permits.
Three (3) copies of all addenda should be submitted in writing to the attention of Seth Robertson, PE at least seven days prior to bid opening.
