Question 36C26226Q1039_1 ADEQ Compliance Underground Fuel Storage

1. Please clarify the required pricing basis for CLINs 0003 and 0004 and their option-year equivalents. What emergency call-out quantities, response times, labor hours, and repair-parts quantities should offerors include? Zero-line Item- We do not know the cost-

So this needs to be a zero-line item, for modifications purposes.

2. May offerors use defined annual call-out/hour limits and a repair allowance, with additional work performed only after written Contracting Officer authorization? Zero line Item- We do not know the cost- So this needs to be a zero-line item, for modifications purposes

3. Please also confirm whether tank replacement, excavation, piping replacement, and environmental cleanup are included. Zero-line Item- We do not know the cost- So this needs to be a zero-line item, for modifications purposes

4. Facility Equipment List

a. Can you provide a list of equipment and components covered under this contract? This will help us provide the most accurate pricing.

Automatic Tank Gauging (ATG) Equipment

5. ATG console/system

6. Tank probes

7. Sensors

8. ATG alarms

9. ATG reporting and monitoring components

Leak Detection Equipment

• Line leak detectors

• Line tightness testing components

• Interstitial monitoring equipment

• Monitoring wells

• Handheld release detection equipment o Tank gauge sticks o Groundwater bailers (where applicable)

Containment Equipment

• Containment sumps

• Piping containment sumps used for interstitial monitoring

• Sump integrity and liquid-tightness components

Overfill Prevention Equipment

• Overfill prevention devices

• Automatic shutoff devices

• Flapper valves and associated overfill prevention components o Tank 10 flapper valve specifically referenced in the SOW for functionality verification

10. Annual Testing and Inspections – Section 5

a. The sixth bullet states:

i. "Submit evidence demonstrating containment sumps used for interstitial monitoring of piping in accordance with R18-12-235(B). This is a triennial requirement."

b. Since this is identified as a triennial requirement, should this item be included and priced under the triennial testing scope rather than the annual testing scope?

We are going above and beyond requirements

11. Section 5 – Bullet 7

a. The SOW requests:

i. "Submit documentation demonstrating integrity testing of tank 10 diesel spill bucket and functionality testing of tank 10 flapper valve was completed after repair of spill bucket."

b. Is this simply a request to verify and provide documentation of previously completed testing, or is additional testing expected under this contract?

Additional.

12. Section 5 – Bullet 8

a. The SOW requests:

i. "Submit evidence of the triennial testing for all containment sumps used for interstitial monitoring of piping to ensure the equipment is liquid tight."

b. Is this also intended as verification of previously completed triennial testing, or is the contractor expected to perform new triennial testing during the contract period? Perform new triennial testing

13. Previous Triennial Testing

a. What was the most recent calendar year that the triennial testing was completed? This information will help determine upcoming testing requirements and pricing assumptions. We are out of Compliance, we haven’t had one.

14. CLIN 0003 – Emergency Repairs

a. CLIN 0003 is identified as "Emergency Repairs to underground tanks and associated equipment."

b. Can you clarify what types of repairs the Government expects to be covered under this line item? For example, would this include repairs to sensors, probes, ATG components, line leak detectors, spill buckets, overfill prevention equipment, sumps, and associated UST compliance equipment? Site visit will need be set up.

15. Deliverables

a. Section 7 currently requires "Complete documentation delivered within 5 business days of service."

b. Would the Government consider revising this requirement to 7 business days to allow sufficient time for QA/QC review and preparation of compliance documentation? 5 business days is the Max. We need to have to be able to update VISN or the Director if there something that needs to be addressed.

16. SB989 Secondary Containment Testing

Can you confirm the number of secondary containment lines associated with each tank that will require testing, including product and vent lines?

This requires a site visit and walk through to lay eyes on the equipment.

17. Emergency Repairs – CLIN 0003

Are parts/materials and any required follow-up testing expected to be included in the

Emergency Repair CLIN pricing, or would these be authorized separately as needed?

Separately as needed
