July 8, 2024 PreBid Conference Call Questions and Answers
1.) Question concerning Freezer Stored Sagebrush and Forage Kochia lots which were approved on the Spring Buy for late delivery in October, do they need to be retested before offering them on the Fall Buy?
Answer. They do not need to be retested before offering the lot on the Fall Buy. Please indicate in the note’s column the lot # and that it is the same lot as the Spring Buy approved late delivery lot.
2.) When a seed lot is required to be delivered to 2 or more warehouses, are the vendors paying for testing of samples at each warehouse location?
Answer. The BLM will do their best to have only one vendor paid test processed. The Attachment 3 has been updated to provide the space to identify where the lot # will be delivered to and the lbs to each location. This will give the BLM the information needed to correctly process the samples from each delivery location.
3.) When a lot is rejected and will be replaced with a new lot, can the rejected lot be picked up when the new lot is delivered? The spec states the rejected lot needs picked up in 5 days and the replacement lot needs delivered within 10 days.
Answer. The specification has been changed to allow for the rejected lot to be picked up when the replacement lot is delivered within 10 days. This does not apply to lots being reconditioned.
4.) SI Forage Kochia does not need to have the eco-region and seed transfer zone information filled out on the Attachment 1 Bidsheet.
5.) The Attachment 3 Seed Analysis form has been updated since the call. Please utilize the updated form.
