4) Any monthly rental of units shall be included in per unit rate for service.

5) “Number of Units” column include black numbers and red “0”s. Black numbers indicate anticipated units to be placed and to be active during each month. Red “0”s indicate potential “emergency/additional” units that may be required. Pricing for red line items are place holders to ensure that pricing is set in case units are required. Pricing should include service only, not placement. See line 173 for placement pricing.

Answers to general questions:

Q: Quote Schedule issued with original solicitation indicated “Septic Cleaning” at the Temple for August and October. Will contract include Septic Cleaning?

A: The contract will NOT include septic cleaning. The note for August and October were to indicate the potential for additional units to be placed if necessary, during septic cleaning through a different contract. Temple units for August and October have been changed to zero with pricing to be included in case they are required.

Q: Do you have a map of the service area?

A: See Amd 1 Att 2.

Q: Can I schedule a site visit?

A: You can schedule a site visit by contacting CO, Bill Walton at bil_walton@nps.gov.

Q: With fluctuation in fuel pricing, can pricing be adjusted?

A: The contract will include the clause at FAR 52.216-4 Economic Price Adjustment-Labor and Material. The purpose of this clause is to account for unexpected swings in market pricing for fuel and other required labor and material. Pricing for option years should assume normal (approx. 4%) pricing increases. Price adjustments to quoted pricing will only be considered if pricing increases are beyond normal rates. In that case, price adjustments will be negotiated between the Contracting Officer and Vendor.
