BRIEF SUMMARY OF WORK

Liquefied petroleum (LP) gas is required at various facilities on US Department of Defense (DoD) installations on Guam for the purpose of but not limited to cooking, laundry, and water heating.

The Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to Federal Law, Guam Laws, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, Navy, and installation regulations.

The period of peformance for this IDIQ is intended to be for one (1) base year and four (4) option years, for a total period of five (5) years as specified below.

Base Year: 01 March 2024 – 28 February 2025
