1.

Answer: See the name plate in the appendix (Attachment) for all data.
The tank capacity is 265,016 gallons.
2.
Question: Tank Capacity: How many gallons does the tank hold?
For reference, our records indicate various systems in this area ranging from 125 to 1,000 gallons.
Answer: See the PWS in the Solicitation.
There are at least two leaks noted on the upper and lower third of the tank.
The bidder is responsible for adhering to the PWS.
The VA does not anticipate the repair team requiring more than one to two days from the exterior to correct.
3.
Question: Leak Location: Where on the tank are the leaking seams located? - Additional Details: Any further information regarding the severity or nature of the leaks.
Answer: The contractor is responsible for determining where the leaking seams are located.
The lowest seam leak produces a spurting stream, while the higher seam(s) produce drips.
The leaks are not readily characterized beyond this observation.
This repair must be assessed and repaired only by an OEM?authorized servicer.
The seam leaks must be repaired from the exterior using OEM?approved materials, with authorized repairers using products such as those attached to spoon?feed them.
Official solicitation and documents
The full solicitation, any attachments, and the actual submission instructions live on the official listing, not on this page. Oppward summarizes public record data; it does not host or mirror the source documents.
Oppward is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by SAM.gov or any government agency. This page is a plain-English summary of public record data; the linked source above is the authoritative listing.
How to bid on this
This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.
- Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
- Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
- Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
- Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
