About this file
This is a Questions and Answers (clarification) document for Solicitation #36C78625Q50066 regarding Complete Grounds Maintenance at Fort Jackson National Cemetery. The document addresses three key questions from potential contractors about pine straw application requirements and top dressing services.
The clarifications specify that a minimum of 10,000 bales of pine straw must be applied annually in a complete replenishment before Memorial Day, with three additional refreshes throughout the year requiring an unspecified number of additional bales for visually prominent areas. For top dressing services, the government will provide the materials while the contractor is responsible for placement after purchase. The document aims to resolve confusion about the total quantity of pine straw required, noting that the refresh quantities cannot be predetermined as different areas may require varying amounts of pine straw during each application.

Solicitation #:36C78625Q50066 – Complete Grounds Maintenance at Fort Jackson National Cemetery
Questions and Answers (clarification)
1) After reviewing Q&A, I have a question.
The answer to 1st Questions and Answers number 65 and 2nd Questions and Answers number 5 are contradicting and confusing. Can you please clarify if 10,000 bales of pine straw is used annually, or if 10,000 bales are applied four times a year for a total of 40,000 bales? 10,000 bales of pine straw equates to 417,700 SF or 9.57 acres.
Would you please help me understand better?
Answer: The minimum is 10,000 bales per year replenish before Memorial Day, but the 3 additional refreshes throughout the rest of the year will require additional bales.
2) Part 1 - Question 36 Top Dressing. There is no CLIN to pay for this.
Answer: The government provides the top dressing; it is the contractor is responsible for placing it after the government purchases it.
3) Pinestraw - the government has answered 10,000 pales annually (this would be 2,500 quarterly).
Is the cemetery sure on this as it is a costly item.
Answer: The cemetery requires a complete replenish once per year of the entire cemetery, usually before Memorial Day, then 3 refreshes throughout the year. The refresh is the visually prominent areas, which is not the complete cemetery, however, there is no way to determine how many bales are needed for each refresh, because some areas may require more or less bales in certain areas.
