About this file

This document is Amendment 0001 to a federal solicitation for construction services issued by the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The amendment provides responses to eight questions received during the solicitation period and closes the questions deadline. The solicitation is for HI – Honouliuli Mammalian Exclusion Fence Repairs under contract number 140FC326Q0012, with a project magnitude less than $25,000. The period of performance runs from March 18, 2026 to May 15, 2026. The contracting officer is Shannon Barnhill (shannon_barnhill@fws.gov). FWS determined that this repair project is new work, with the original fence construction completed in 2017/2018.

Key clarifications provided in the questions and answers include: the government established a base bid quantity of 20 posts for replacement; additional Aquamesh panels will be provided if needed beyond the 800 feet provided; on-site chipping and staging of cleared mangrove biomass is permitted rather than requiring off-site haul-away; vehicle access is available to repair sections via UTV or small truck through tight corners; small machines are permitted on site; and contractors may propose an alternate 45-day timeline for completion instead of the standard schedule.

Amendment 0001 – Questions and Answers Question 1: Is there any incumbent/recompete or is this a brand-new project? If yes, could you please provide us with their award number or even if the customer bought similar services in the past.

Answer: The repair of this is new. The original construction occurred in 2017/2018. Employees associated with this project are no longer with FWS and we do not have records relating to this.

Question 2: Scope of Post Replacement (SOW Para 6): The requirement to "replace any posts" is currently unquantified. Can the Government define a "Base Bid" quantity for post replacements (e.g., up to 10 posts) to allow for equitable fixed-price evaluation?

Answer: We can set this as replacing 20 posts.

Question 3: GFE Material Overage (SOW Para 8): The provided Aquamesh allowance (800 ft for 750 ft scope) offers a 6.6% waste margin. Given the "seaward" terrain and mangrove obstructions, overlaps may exceed this. Will additional GFE be available if required?

Answer: Yes, we will provide panels if necessary, however we do not think this will be needed and would like to have a discussion before this becomes an issue.

Question 4: Disposal of Mangrove Biomass (SOW Para 6 / Clause H.6.0): Does the "clearing" of mangroves require complete off-site haul-away to a commercial landfill, or is on-site chipping/staging permitted? This significantly impacts the logistics plan.

Answer: on-site chipping/staging is permitted.

Question 5: What is the access like to the sections requiring repair?

Answer: There are tight corners between two fences but can get to area in UTV or small truck.

Question 6: Is it possible to drive vehicles to each section that needs to be fixed?

Answer: Yes

Question 7: Are small machines permitted on site, or will the work need to be performed entirely by hand?

Answer: You can use small machines

Question 8: Are we able to propose an alternate 45-day timeline for completion?

Answer: Yes
