9. I see on the solicitation on the cover that it says no bid bond is required however, on page 28 of the solicitation it says a bid bond for over $150,000.

A: Magnitude stated is correct, Payment and Performance Bonds are required. Bid Guarantees are not. Liquidated damages are not a part of this contract.
