The key details are:
- The relaxation chamber is not required as the fuel will have a Static Dissipating Additive that negates the need.
- Each of the 3 tanks will require its own independent pumping system.
- The electrical transformers will be sized to provide sufficient power (40 HP, 300 GPM) for the 3 independent SCAT systems.
- Drawings are required to be submitted as part of the bid.
- The customer will provide the fuel for testing the tanks, but the vendor is responsible for performing the function checks prior to handover.

1- I see that a relaxation chamber is listed as NOT required, however, NFPA 407 states each tank will need a relaxation chamber, especially for bottom-loading trucks. Please advise as to whether or not I should include the relaxation chamber.
a. The relaxation chamber is not necessary as we will be receiving fuel that has Static Dissipating Additive that negates the need.
2- Will all 3 tanks need their own separate pumping systems each? Or will we have 1 pumping system able to utilize all 3 tanks?
a. All 3 tanks need to operate independently, therefore will need their own pumping system.
3- I see that the spec shows transformers with 350KvA to 500Kva Transformers. Can you verify the voltage that will be utilized for the pumping equipment?
a. Plan is there will be enough power for all 3 SCATS to run independently at 40 HP and 300 GPM.
4- Are drawings required for bid?
a. Yes, per the Tank Requirements Attachment, drawings are required.
5- I was wondering once the tanks are installed will the customer provide personnel to perform the testing of the tanks, or do you need our personnel to perform it?
a. Customer will provide the fuel to allow the testing of all components, but it would be the vendors responsibility to perform function checks prior to handing it over to the government.
