I’m reviewing the solicitation NICHD-21-232, specifically for volume, purity specifications and truck access information. This information will have a significant impact on our ability to bid so we need a few more details. Could you give the monthly expected volume, purity specifications and routing plan for a tanker to the two tanks?
