96--GRAVEL SUPPLY

Amendment 0001 to solicitation 140L3625Q0093 addresses vendor questions and modifies the terms. It clarifies that semi-trucks can be used for delivery at Elk Basin and Belfry locations. The amendment also rectifies an error regarding past performance requirements, stating that Clause 52.212-2 and a Past Performance Questionnaire should have been removed, as this is a supply procurement where price is the sole evaluation factor. Crucially, the solicitation close date/time is extended to September 5, 2025, at 1300 MD. Offerors must acknowledge this amendment by signing and including it with their quote, or if a quote has already been submitted, by sending the signed amendment to cclapp@blm.gov.
