Amendment 001 to solicitation 140L5726Q0002, concerning the Delta WH&B Facility Hay, addresses critical questions and provides clarifications for potential offerors. Key points include that deliveries are not acceptable on December 23-January 2 due to facility closure, with a preference for deliveries after January 5th or on December 30th-31st. While 3x4 bales are preferred for ease of stacking, a mix of 3x4 and 3x3 bales is acceptable as long as the correct tonnage is met. Government-furnished equipment, including a telehandler (3 bales) and skid steer (2 bales), will be available for unloading. Hay does not require prior testing for specifications like "weed-free" but will be inspected upon delivery, with rejected hay at the contractor's expense. The awardee must contact the COR for delivery instructions and gate access. Delays due to equipment malfunction will be resolved through discussions and potential modifications. The total 350 tons of hay do not need to be delivered simultaneously, as long as it's by January 31, 2026, with the facility able to accommodate two to three truckloads at a time. Hay will be stacked in a barn, eliminating the need for tarping. Partial or single invoices are acceptable, and the earliest delivery dates are between December award-19th, December 30th-31st (if necessary), and January 5th-31st, Monday-Friday.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is soliciting quotes (RFQ 140L5726Q0002) for 350 tons of weed-free alfalfa hay for the Delta Wild Horse and Burro Facility in Utah.
