14. DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT/MODIFICATION (Organized by UCF section headings, including solicitation/contract subject matter where feasible.)

The purpose of this amendment is to provide answers to questions.

Q.1: (24" x 24" manhole (lid not included) toward the center of the tank). This is not normal in tank construction, why are you not requesting a lid?

A.1: Man hole location - Both of the tanks we have now have the man hole entrance toward the center of the tank, if new standards require the man hole to be located in a different location - OK. We would prefer not on the front of the tank due to limited space between cab and tank. Lid - Neither of the tanks we have now have lids, without a lid there is less ventilation problems and one less reason for people to be on top of the tank when filling.

Or does the fill pipe have a separate location to fill the tank? The water being hauled in

this tank is not "potable" water.

Q.2: (Vender will arrange hauling the Chassis from Dubois to work plant and the Chassis and tank from plant back to Dubois). It is recommended that the location drive the truck to the manufactures location and once the tank is installed the location will then return to the manufactures location to inspect the truck and drive it back to the location. The vendors insurance will not cover them while driving the truck to and from the location. Transporting the truck by semi will exceed the height requirements for most major highways. Will the government provide a waiver of responsibility to the vendor while driving the truck from the location and back to the location?

A.2: Truck Transporting - This is an option for the vender, only if they have a mechanism for this type of service. The last freightliner chassis was hauled on a lowboy trailer to and from the plant. The government will not waive insurance. We do not have anyone we can schedule to drive both ways and/or wait for the completion or come back for a while then go back.

Q.3: Will the government be onsite to inspect the water tank prior to painting to verify all locations of all fittings?

A.3: Inspect water tank before painting - Not at the venders plant but we can accomplish the same thing with pictures emailed.

Q.4: Will the government be on location to inspect the water tank after installation on the truck?

A.4: Inspect water tank after installation - Not at the venders plant but we can accomplish the same thing with pictures emailed.

All terms and conditions remain unchanged.
