THE PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT IS TO SHARE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS AS WELL AS INFORMATION WITH ALL POTENTIAL BIDDERS. QUESTION: Can you please explain the requirement for a lift of 14,000 lbs…and a ramp capable of 14,000 lbs…in our load/unload procedure we are able to negate these large loads by breaking them up…..need to understand the use of the 14000 lb ramp on the landing craft….our unload procedure does not have the skidsteer making contact with the ramp of the landing craft…we would use our A frame and skid sleds to make it up the beach..

ANSWER:

As stated in: Annex A, statement of Work Section 6, Description of Cargo to be delivered "vehicles ranging in size from ATVs to UTVs to SUVs to a full size crew cab truck" And, "From time to time there are vehicles going back and forth in the same season for service on the mainland" Our truck and skidsteer weigh in excess of 10000 lbs each and we require the option of sending them back and forth between the mainland and Sable Island. All the vehicles and machinery on Sable Island come here by landing craft and at some time or another will require replacement or service on the mainland. The vehicles themselves ARE the cargo.
