NOTICE TO QUOTERS MOWING AND TRIMMING SERVICES POMME DE TERRE LAKE Mowing (and trimming) procurements utilized by the Pomme de Terre Lake Project, Kansas City District, Corps of Engineers, encompass the mowing of roadsides, open fields, and developed areas such as campgrounds, picnic areas, etc. This procurement includes limited amounts of cutting by hand where obstructions, rocks, stumps, or steepness prevent access by machinery. Provisions are included for partial area mowings. Slopes requiring equipment with a low center of gravity and good stability may be included. Trimming around signs, along guardrail, around buildings, trees, and park equipment will be required. Vendors must bid/quote on all items and entire quantities contained in the basic contract period and all renewal options to be considered. Bids/quotes received not complying with this requirement will be considered non-responsive and will be rejected. All vendors must be registered through the Central Contractor Registration (CCR).This is a flood control project. Occasional retention of floodwaters may inundate portions of the public use areas, other areas, or access roads thereto, being serviced by this contract/purchase order. In the event that inundation materially affects the scope of work, the Contractor will be requested to submit a pricing proposal covering the unserviceable or affected portion of his work in order that an equitable adjustment to contract/purchase order price can be negotiated and an adjustment made in accordance with the appropriate contract clause entitled "Changes." Payment for services not performed as a result of conditions stated above will be initially withheld until execution of an equitable adjustment can be made by contract modification. The Contractor shall furnish proof of required insurance in the form of a copy of the insurance policy, or a binder issued by the insurer. Proof of proper insurance shall be delivered to the Contracting Officer's Representative either at the pre-work conference, or prior to starting work on the first day of the service period. Offerors or quoters are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after contract award. Solicitations will be provided upon request by contacting Teresa A. Harris @ 816 983-3842. Questions regarding Technical Requirements may be answered by contacting Mark Cleveand @ 417 745-6411.
