Summary (Newest Update)

Background The Department of Administrative Services General Services is seeking bids from qualified bidders for the removal of existing ultra-low sulfur diesel #2 fuel and any remaining sediment from a fuel tank. This initiative is necessary due to the degradation of fuel quality over time. A separate solicitation will address the inspection and repair of the tank, which will be refilled with ultra-low sulfur diesel #2 upon completion of the refurbishment work. The tank has a capacity of 300,000 gallons, but it is typically maintained at around 30,000 gallons. Work Details The contractor must perform the following tasks: 1. Remove and dispose of existing fuel and sediment from the storage tank, ensuring safe handling, containment, transportation, and environmentally compliant disposal. 2.

Pricing for fuel refill must include a markup and delivery price per gallon covering all associated costs (storage, handling, transportation) and must account for federal taxes as itemized on invoices. The daily rack rate for fuel will be based on quotes from DTN Corporation for Des Moines, IA.
