The rate for street sweeping should be per occurrence. Regardless if it takes 1 day or 5 days, please provide one flat rate to perform the entire task.

Answer #2: TYAD used to have an area available as landfill, however, these areas are now closed. Therefore, any excavation of pavement, dirt, rock, etc., it must be hauled off post.
