Water shall be delivered monthly.

The scope of this contract includes providing bottled water to up to 50 (maximum) individual properties outside of the Fort Meade Boundary. These addresses fall within zip codes 21113, and 21054. As these properties are primarily residential; addresses will only be provided to the winning bidder. It is up to the bidder to estimate monthly water demand for the properties.
