About this file

This document is Amendment 2 (effective June 11, 2026) to solicitation 140FGA26Q0034, issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), GAOA, located in Falls Church, VA. The amendment responds to eight contractor questions regarding fence modification work.

The solicitation pertains to approximately 2 miles of fence modification involving the installation of 3-inch diameter, 10-foot long (minimum) metal posts with 2 7/8-inch diameter, 8-foot long brace rails. No stays are required between T-posts, and standard fence clips are acceptable. Clearing of trees, brush, and obstructions is permitted "if necessary" only, limited to up to 4 feet on each side of the fence line, with preservation of existing vegetation. The work includes construction and/or replacement of 7 gates, each 16 feet wide, with wood gate sticks replaced using 2-inch steel tubing. The solicitation explicitly states that a bid bond is not required; however, payment and performance bond requirements apply based on contract value thresholds (Payment Bond required for amounts over $35,000; both Payment and Performance Bonds required for amounts exceeding $150,000). The period of performance runs from July 27, 2026, to June 30, 2027. Contractors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the deadline specified in the original solicitation or submit changes by letter or electronic communication referencing the solicitation and amendment numbers.

Amendment 2 responds to contractor questions received.

Q1. What size metal posts and brace rails are to be used?

A1. 3" diameter, 10' long (minimum) metal posts with 2 7/8" diameter, 8' long brace rails.

Q2. Do we need to clear and grub along the 2 miles of fence modification?

The SOW states the contractor "will, if necessary, clear fence lines of trees, brush, and other obstructions large enough to hinder construction operations." Clearing limits: up to 4 feet on each side of the fence, with the side(s) permitted depending on whether the line is interior (either/both sides) or boundary (USFWS side only). Preserve existing vegetation as much as possible.

Q3. Are stays used in between the T-posts?

A3. No stays required.

Fence acceptable to use?
