In the paper of Chwała (2021), a bug in the used numerical implementation was found. It concerns one of the covariance matrix coefficients that was incorrectly updated during the simulation process. As a consequence for some fluctuation scales, different bearing capacity standard deviations are obtained; however, the bug had a very limited impact on the found optimal borehole placement. Therefore, the conclusions given in the paper are still valid. The author has re-analyzed all numerical examples presented in the paper and will provide the results on an individual request. In Fig. 1, corrected Figs. 5, 9, 7 and 11 in the original paper are shown.
