RFQ 36C25225Q0206 – Vendor Questions with Answers

1. Question: Line Item 1003 specifies a 20-cubic yard container for solid waste (non-recyclable material) but does not provide further detail on the exact type of waste included under this category. Could you kindly confirm if this refers to general solid waste or if it includes any specific types of waste, such as medical or hazardous materials? The container is for general solid waste only.

2. Concerning the 4th container. What type of material will be hauled? All the other containers indicate the material except this one. The 4th container is on-site in case the general solid waste dumpster is full, and the station needs another one right away.

3. Who is the incumbent and what is the Contract number? HAMILTON ALLIANCE, INC. - 36C25220D0032.

4. Is it possible to get a map of the current container’s location? Yes – A map is attached to this amendment – please open the PDF. All dumpsters will be near building 140. More specific placement guidance will be provided at a post-award orientation.

5. We would like to confirm whether this contract has been affected by any federal contract freeze that may be in place? No, the freeze does not affect this requirement.

6. Will the GOV please add a CLIN to account for monthly rental of each Roll Off? No. Or does monthly rental have to be accounted for in the price of the haul? The price of the container rentals needs to be factored into the Pull prices.

7. What are the projected average tonnages per haul for each Roll Off container? Historical tonnage cannot be provided. A pickup request is issued whenever a dumpster is full.

8. CLIN 0004 Additional Container: Please confirm that the GOV is stating the utility of this container could potentially contain either scrap metal, wood waste (recycling), or material solid waste (non-recycling)? Dumpster 0004 will only be used for general solid waste.

9. Would the Government consider combining this solicitation with the other currently posted solicitation for this location (RFQ 36C25225Q0231) since it is withing the same scope of work and NAICS code? No, the requirements must remain separate.

10. Is a Lake County, IL Solid Waste and Recycling Permit required. Yes, A Lake County Illinois Solid Waste and Recycling Permit is required.

11. How does the VA handle scrap metal returns? Should the value of the scrap metal be applied as a discount to the next invoice? The vendor shall factor in the value of anticipated sheet metal into their pricing for that line item or the vendor shall provide the value of the scrap metal on the next invoice and issue that as a discount on the monthly bill.
