Septic & Lift Station Pumping and Cleaning at Indiana Dunes National Park, Porter, Indiana The purpose of this amendment is to provide the date and time for a requested site visit and questions and answers asked thus far. The Site Visit is scheduled for 9/15/2026 at 11:00 AM CDT. Meeting location: HQ building, 1100 N Mineral Springs Rd Porter, IN. Meet at the flagpole. 1. Pricing basis. Attachment 3 requests one "EA" unit price per CLIN for routine, incident, and emergency pumping, while Attachment 2 lists tanks from 1,000 to 4,000 gallons. Will the Government evaluate price using the estimated quantities in Attachment 2? May quoters price by tank-size tier or per gallon, or is a single blended per-event price expected regardless of tank size? Answer: Quotes should show prices per gallon since the various tanks have different capacities. Incident and emergency prices should equal your per gallon price for those services plus whatever urgent service fees may be associated with each. You may use your own quote spreadsheet if that makes it easier. 2. Lift stations. The CLIN titles read "Septic & Lift Station Pumping," but the Statement of Work (Items 2 and 3) describes septic tank pumping and pipe cleaning.

Attachment 2 shows all listed sites pumped "upon award." Over what period does the Government expect that initial pumping to be completed? Answer: Within one month after receiving the BPA award. 7. For CLIN 0001, does one "EA" represent pumping of one individual septic or lift-station location, regardless of tank size, or may multiple scheduled locations be completed and billed as one service call?
