Request for Quotation No. 6913G624Q300060 Amendment No. 1
1. Question: Please clarify who the Applicant is referred to in the SOW. “If the success criteria are not achieved at the end of 5 years, the Applicant is responsible for implementing remedial action measures, including additional seeding, weeding, invasive plant eradication and an extension of the monitoring period.”
Answer: The Applicant is the FAA, who will be responsible for any necessary requirements as identified at the end of the 5 years of monitoring.
2. Question: Please advise if weeding the restoration site and application of herbicides is the responsibility of the contractor and should be included in our FFP bid. “Hand removal of these plants under direct supervision of a biologist will be the primary control mechanism for invasive species, but mechanical removal or herbicide application may also be used if deemed appropriate. Herbicides registered for use in aquatic ecosystems may be used to control invasive species. Such applications will be made in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations. Herbicides will only be applied by a licensed applicator.”
Answer: The contractor will be responsible for any hand removal of invasive weeds or other plants, as deemed necessary during monitoring visits. If extensive removal is identified as needed and requires additional costs or supplies beyond an estimated level of effort as detailed in the proposal, additional costs could be requested to be covered by the government.
