ATTACHMENT B_ TEST METHOD EQUIPMENT AND CAPACITY.pdf

This document is an attachment template for contractors to complete and submit with their contract proposals detailing test methods, equipment, and capacity for fuel property testing.

Attachment B requires contractors to specify testing capabilities across two separate test slates. Test Slate 1 encompasses nine fuel properties: Acid Number, Appearance (number rating and qualitative) at 25°C, Lubricity (HFRR), Sulfur, Particulate Contamination, Storage Stability, Water and Sediment by Centrifuge, and Trace Elements. Test Slate 2 includes a more extensive list of 19 fuel properties: Acid Number, Appearance, Ash, Biodiesel, Carbon Residue (10% Bottoms), Cetane Index, Color, Cloud Point, Density at 15°C, Flash Point, Lubricity (HFRR), Pour Point, Sulfur, Viscosity at 40°C, Particle Count, Particulate Contamination, Water, Demulsification at 25°C, and Storage Stability. For each fuel property listed, contractors must identify the specific test method employed, manufacturer and model of equipment used, per-day total testing capacity, and volume of fuel required per test. The template concludes with a line item for total fuel volume required for testing in each slate. Contractors must complete all applicable fields and provide accurate capacity and resource information to support their proposal submission.
