AMENDMENT 1

(a) The radius requirement has been expanded from 120 to 200 miles. This applies to all instances where it appears in the solicitation.

(b) Attached a sample collection spreadsheet that is typically sent for the locations. Typically this is returned with a hand written sheet from the Industrial Hygienist and the lab with the actual hand written results.

Questions and Answers – Each question we have a response for is listed below.

Question - If the contractor has a local office within (former)120 mile as requested by specification and ship samples to other contractor location that is ELITE certified more than (former)120 miles from Hines Va Hospital location, will this be considered?

· Note – this question was asked in multiple forms. The answer below applies to each of them.

Answer: No. Contractors will be required to comply with the terms of the solicitation.

Question: Can you provide an example lab report showing how positive results are currently reported?

Answer: We cannot provide an active example, but we hope that the attached sample collection spreadsheet provides a useful reference. See Amendment 1 paragraph (b) for information about the sample collection sheet.
