About this file
This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 140FS126Q0109, issued June 4, 2026, by the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), SAT Team 1, located at 5275 Leesburg Pike, Falls Church, VA 22041. The amendment is not extended and addresses Questions and Answers (Q&A) regarding a trash collection service requirement at the Guam National Wildlife Refuge, specifically the Ritidian Point Unit.
The solicitation describes a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract despite incorporating IDIQ clauses 52.216-19 and 52.216-22 with blank values; clarification confirms this is an FFP contract with no IDIQ arrangement. The contractor must maintain a local office reasonably close to the refuge to ensure timely service delivery. Trash pickup must occur during refuge business hours (per the refuge website) on a biweekly (every other week) schedule, totaling 26 collections annually. The contractor must ensure waste in bins remains contained within closed lids, limited to municipal solid waste only, free of hazardous, regulated, or prohibited materials. Price adjustments are not permitted under this FFP contract; FAR 52.216-4 (Economic Price Adjustment) does not apply. Questions regarding hypothetical future option year pricing under FAR 52.217-8 were declined as premature. Dumpster specifications are located on page 4 of the main solicitation. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the deadline specified in the solicitation by completing items 8 and 15 of the form or submitting separate written communication referencing the solicitation and amendment numbers.

The solicitation describes a firm-fixed-price award but incorporates IDIQ clauses 52.216-19
(Order Limitations) and 52.216-22 (Indefinite
Quantity), both with blank fill-in values.
Kindly clarify whether this is an FFP or IDIQ contract. If IDIQ, what are the guaranteed minimum and maximum order quantities?
- If the solicitation states that it is a
Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract, then an
Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) arrangement would not apply.
Section 2 of the SOW states ¿Contractor must have a local office on site.¿ Does ¿on site¿ refer to the island of Guam or specifically to the Guam National Wildlife Refuge?
- Contractors should be located reasonably close to the refuge to ensure they can effectively perform the required services. For example, if your location requires multiple ferry crossings and several hours of travel time, it may not be practical to provide timely service.
Are there any access restrictions, gate hours, or road conditions at the Ritidian Point Unit that may affect operations?
- Trash pickup must occur during the refuge's normal business hours. These hours can be found on the refuge's official website.
The Bid Schedule indicates ¿Bi-weekly¿ and the
SOW specifies ¿every other week.¿ We understand this to mean 26 hauls per year¿is that correct?
- "Biweekly" in this solicitation means once every two weeks. To avoid confusion, the requirement is for trash collection every other week throughout the year.
We request assurance that waste placed in the bin will be contained within the closed lids, limited to municipal solid waste, and free of

(C) hazardous, regulated, or prohibited materials.
- Any exceptions, prohibited items, assumptions, or limitations should be clearly identified and submitted with your quote. These will be considered as part of the evaluation process.
Given the potential five-year term, we respectfully ask: Under what circumstances, if any, may price adjustments be requested after award? Are there restrictions on when or how such modifications may be submitted?
- This is a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract. An
FFP contract provides for a price that is not subject to adjustment based on the contractor's actual costs incurred during performance.
Would the Government consider including FAR
52.216-4 (Economic Price Adjustment¿Labor and
Material) or a similar mechanism to account for increases in tipping/disposal fees, fuel costs, and inflation?
- FAR 52.216-4, Economic Price Adjustment¿Labor and Material, would generally not apply to this requirement. That clause is typically associated with certain contracts above the
Simplified Acquisition Threshold that permit price adjustments based on labor or material cost changes. Since this solicitation is
Firm-Fixed-Price, contract pricing is not subject to adjustment after award based on actual cost increases.
Will the 6-month extension rates under 52.217-8
(Option to Extend Services) be based on the final option year pricing or the base year pricing?
- I will not provide a response to this question, as it does not pertain to the requirements of the current solicitation.
Rather, it concerns a hypothetical circumstance that would require consideration and mutual agreement by both parties at a later date, should such circumstances arise.
