Attachment 2, Provisions

Accessibility of the Contractor's Facility

Regarding Provision (12) of the solicitation “ACCESSIBILITY OF CONTRACTOR’S FACILITY”, the requirement is for the facility and the approach to have a minimum water depth of 34 feet. Previous drydocking solicitation for FY14: HSCG85‐14‐C‐P45C85 Amendment 2 required a 2 foot under keel clearance at MLLW from its light load draft of 27 feet. Will a similar amendment to the current solicitation provision be added for this contract to reduce the necessary minimum water depth prior to the cutter’s arrival at the Contractor’s facility. Please see the attached Amendment 2 from the previous solicitation.

The specification work items 6,7,8 and contract term (12) will be revised to: a minimum of 2 feet under the keel in Amendment 4.

13 Should we be watching out for another amendment?

Yes. Amendment 4 will be coming out shortly.
