1-Q: Section 3.3.4 states: “The contractor shall provide the four 1.7-inch OD hoses that connect the

OCC to the auto hose reels.”

Section 3.3.8 states: “The four large 1.7” OD hoses are to be auto-wound via auto traversing feed powered reels.”

Should all 4 1.7 in. OD hoses to travel together as one large hose/unit to the aircraft or 4 independent and separately controlled hoses?

A: The SOW revised 4 Jan 2019 via Amendment 1 has changed the paragraph numbering to for that section to 3.3.5. and 3.3.9. The “hose reels” in section 3.3.5 and “powered reels” in section 3.3.9 are to be an individual hose reel for each 1.7 in OD hoses that can be individually auto wound up and manually be pulled out. So one hose reel per 1.7 OD hose with an auto wind and manual unwind reel. ( Each hose reel is independent of the other 1.7 OD hose reels)
