- Description
- The intent of this notice is to identify any possible providers for the service described here. At this time there is only one available source in SouthEastern Alaska of which the forest sercvice is aware that can provide this service and it is our intent to identify any other sources before making a sole source award. There are seven Forest Service radio sites at the grid coordinates below that require propane refueling. Because there are no roads, they are accessible only by helicopter. The full "liquid out" tanks are transported to a staging area and then slung to the remote site by a helicopter rated for that load. A fuel mechanic will then remove the barrel from the sling and transfer the propane from the tank to standard 500 gallon propane tanks. This process is repeated until all the tanks are at maximum capacity. This is a high priority communication system that must be kept operational at all times to facilitate employee and aircraft coordination and tracking. Offeror must have experience with this type of task due to the associated high risks. Fuel requirement: Contractor shall fuel all remote sites with propane quantities per schedule. The estimated LP Gas Fuel required is below. Contractor shall check fuel tank and fuel lines for condition and leaks upon arrival. Upon detection of any leaks, vendor is to isolate, as much as possible, and contact the Contracting Officer with a cost estimate to repair. Contractor shall record actual gallons of propane delivered to each site on the invoice and tank gauge level percentages after filling. Al documentation will be delivered to the Contracting Officer within one week of work completion.
