The Contractor shall furnish all management, labor, equipment, supervision, tools, materials, transportation, operating supplies, workman's compensation, unemployment insurance and incidentals necessary to perform the work in accordance with the specification and provisions of the contract. The project consists of road blading, ditch cleaning and drainage system maintenance throughout the Colville National Forest.

The minimum guarantee will be listed in the solicitation along with the ceiling price. The Government is currently estimating approximately 250 miles of roads per year. Actual amount will vary as roads are surveyed, forest priorities, unit prices and amount of funding becomes available. The Government is currently estimating a guarantee at least 100 miles for this contract (total for all three years). The actual guarantee and ceiling amount will be in the solicitation. Work will be assigned by the placement of Task Orders issued against the basic contract. The physical work and location will be identified in individual Task Orders. Task orders will be placed based on Forest road priorities, site conditions, unit prices and funding availability. Task Order time is estimated from May 1st through July 1st with a summer break and then September 1st to October 30th depending on weather and site locations.

Notes: Funding for this requirement is currently not available, but is anticipated for this fiscal year 2018. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the solicitation's closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offeror/quoter for any costs incurred. The reason for the notice to be issued this time of year is to allow for potential quoters to visit the units this fall to ascertain the extent of work involved and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the prices to the extent the information is obtainable and while the sites are still accessible. Some changes from this notice may occur from the actual solicitation, but the enclosed information is a representative of work to be done. Examples of a Vicinity Map, and typical FSR Location Maps are attached with this notice. Contractors are encouraged to view FSR's to confirm conditions. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after the contract has been awarded (reference FAR Clause 52.237-1). No guided tours will be held. For information about site locations, please call Glen Jensen at 509.684.7190 or Monte Zema at 509.684.7255 if Glen is not available. The Government assumes no responsibility for any understanding or representation concerning conditions made by any of its officers or agents prior to the execution of a contract, unless such understanding or representation the Government is expressly stated in a subsequent solicitation and contract. All inquiries concerning this potential project must be directed to me a 509.684.7114 or fax 509.684.7280. You may also e-mail me at cvanalyne@fs.fed.us.
