It permits contractors to use boats or floating platforms, provided they adhere to work restrictions, do not obstruct station operations, and are identified in a pre-construction submittal. The government will provide reasonable accommodations for mooring, but contractors must remove platforms during "no work" periods and are responsible for their seaworthiness. The amendment also details access to fresh water via fire hydrants with specific connection requirements and electricity from designated locations, both subject to COR approval and adherence to safety and code standards. This amendment ensures clarity and safety for contractors while maintaining Coast Guard operational integrity.

Additionally, detailed instructions for pile encasement repairs on Drawing C-105 and S-506 are provided, specifying repairs from the underside of the pile cap to 2'-0" below the existing mudline for all 36 piles.

The USCG confirmed no liquidated damages, contractor responsibility for special inspections, and provided updated design values for timber facing boards.
