1. Question and Answer

Attachment 4

Question:

Clarification that the form is specifically asking for the price of the material and not any labor that is associated with a component piece. I will use the example of the lifting eyes. Since it would take a piece of steel and labor to form the lifting eye configuration, would only the steel cost be inserted in the column for" Portion of CLIN Price subject to EPA for steel"? Would the labor portion of the lifting eye fabrication be precluded from any contingency increase for subsequent option year? Now that Cement is going to be included in the EPA would the same apply to labor for the cement sinker fabrication?

Answer:

Reference Attachment 4 – EPA Table for Metal and Metal Products, #2 Diesel Fuel, and Ready-mix Concrete.

Regarding the Base Period CLINS (Pages 1-3 of Attachment 4)

* Column 4 labeled “Schedule B Unit Price” should be the same prices as the unit prices from the schedule in the solicitation (pages 7-21 of 80). These prices should include all of your costs for labor, all materials, etc (Note – this will change for the Option Periods Column 4 “Schedule B

Unit Price”).

*Column 5 - “Portion of the CLIN Price Subject to the EPA for Metal and Metal Products”, Column 6 - “Portion of CLIN Subject to the EPA for #2 Diesel Fuel”, and Column 7 – “Portion of CLIN Price Subject to the EPA for Ready-mix Concrete” should be the material costs of the steel (Column 5), diesel fuel (Column 6), and concrete (Column 7) that is already included in the

Column 4 - “Schedule B Unit Price”.

Columns 5 - 7 should not include any costs for labor or any other materials.

Regarding the Option Period CLINS (Pages 4 - 15 of Attachment 4)

* Column 5 - “Portion of the CLIN Price Subject to the EPA for Metal and Metal Products”, Column 6 - “Portion of CLIN Subject to the EPA for #2 Diesel Fuel”, and Column 7 – “Portion of CLIN Price Subject to the EPA for Ready-mix Concrete” should be the same amounts from

Columns 5-7 of the Base Period and should remain constant for each option period for each location (i.e. CLIN 00001AA, 10001AA, 20001AA, 30001AA and 40001AA (USCGC

Gasconade, Omaha, NE).

* Column 4 labeled “Schedule B Unit Price” should be the same prices as the unit prices from the schedule in the solicitation for each option year. The price may increase due to increased

AMENDMENT OF SOLICITATION Amendment Number: 0004 labor or any material costs (etc) other than steel, fuel and concrete. The costs for the steel, fuel and concrete should be the same as your costs for the Base Period CLINS. This is where the

EPA will adjust the costs for steel, fuel and concrete each year (if applicable).
