Question 90: Items 1018 and 1019. Are you asking the offerors to price the removal tanks from the ground or leave them in place and remove the contents inside the tank?

Answer 90: Remove contents and remove tank.

Question 91: Items 1018 and 1019. Is the number of units, one tank that is 400 gallons in size or

400 tanks? If it represents 400 tanks, how big are the tanks?

Answer 91: You are to price one tank removal and then the total price for 400 of those tanks.

1019A is a tank up to 1,000 gals, 1019B is a tank ranging from 1,001 to 5,000. Your pricing for

1910A will be to remove one 1,000 gal tank or smaller and then the total of 400 of those; B, C and D are calculated the same.

Question 92: Items 1018 and 1019. The quantity given in all sub line items is 400 Column C, and quantity in gal Column D.

If 400 tanks, we don't understand how that is a unit price, and if so why is the quantity given in gallons?

Answer 92: See answers above. Your pricing for 1019E is to remove "residual fuel" only, not a full tank. Your pricing will reflect the cost of removing "residual fuel" from one tank and then the total of removing "residual fuel" from 200 tanks.
