Question 1:

Question: After reviewing the attached solicitation and being the incumbent, I noticed that the description and line items are not what the VA is currently doing. There is no longer a 34yd compactor for solid waste in place. Currently they have put in a Sani-Pak that is VA owned. They are processing both RMW and Solid Waste into this machine and it is being dumped as solid waste. Also, they currently have a 30yd open top not a 40yd at the bottom of the hill as a permanent can for use of overflow/furniture etc. They also occasionally put in an additional 30yd for projects.

Please confirm the compactor/dumpster requirements as a total of (1) compactor and

(1) 40-yard dumpster.
