NOTES:

1. Prospective offerors are encouraged to examine the vessel prior to proposal submission. Specific dates for examining the vessel will be scheduled by Mr. David Pickett, Marine Management Section, (504)862-2381.

Failure to examine the vessel before submitting a proposal will not be considered cause for a claim against the Government.

2. Award will be made as a whole to one offeror.

3. The offeror is required to offer on all line items. Failure to submit an offer on all line items shall result in a non-responsive offer, requiring rejection thereof. In the event that an offeror is willing to waive costs associated with an individual line item, he is required to insert descriptive words or abbreviations such as "no charge" or "N.C."

4. Offerors shall furnish unit prices for all line items. If the offeror fails to insert a unit price in the appropriate blank for the required items but does furnish an extended total or an estimated amount for such items, the Government will deem his unit price to be the quotient obtained by dividing the extended estimated amount for that line item by the quantity. IF THE

OFFEROR OMITS BOTH THE UNIT PRICE AND THE EXTENDED AMOUNT FOR ANY REQUIRED

ITEM, HIS OFFER WILL BE DECLARED NON-RESPONSIVE.
