(Note that tanks at 3 locations are coupled together for one FFP quote) OPTION YEAR EPA APPLICATION: OPTION YEARS: Should the Government exercise the option to extend the term of the contract under FAR 52.217-9 – Option to Extend the Term of the Contract, the LPG option year pricing shall be subject to FAR Clause 52.216-2 – Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) for LPG. The following EPA instructions shall be incorporated into the solicitation and resulting contract: Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) – Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) Pursuant to FAR 52.216-2, Economic Price Adjustment—Standard Supplies, the Government shall permit an EPA subject to the following: (a) Designated Market Indicator For the purpose of calculating price adjustments, the "established market price" is designated as the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) Mont Belvieu, TX Propane Spot Price FOB, as published by the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Energy Information Administration at https://www.eia.gov/petroleum/. (b) Frequency and Timing of Adjustments The Contractor may submit a request for an economic price adjustment in writing to the Contracting Officer no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the current contract period. If approved, the adjusted price shall become effective on the first day of the newly exercised option period. No more than one price adjustment may be requested or executed per option period. (c) Calculation Methodology The Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) for the upcoming option period shall be calculated using the following three-step formula: Step 1 (Determine Index Price): Calculate the "Current Index Average," which is the mathematical average of the published EIA Mont Belvieu Monthly Index values for the latest twelve (12) full calendar months immediately preceding the date of the EPA request. Step 2 (Add Contractor Markup): Add the Contractor’s established "Firm-Fixed Mark-up Price" for the applicable option period (as awarded in the Contractor's original proposal schedule). Step 3 (Establish New FFP): The sum of Step 1 and Step 2 equals the new Firm-Fixed-Price per gallon for the upcoming 12-month option period. (Formula: Current Index Average + Firm-Fixed Mark-up Price = New 12-Month FFP). (d) Limitation on Adjustments In accordance with FAR 52.216-2(c)(1), the aggregate of the increases made under this clause for any single option period shall not exceed 10 percent of the current contract unit price. There is no downward limit on price decreases resulting from a downward shift in the index. This announcement will close at 1000 hours (Hawaii Standard Time) on Friday, 21 August 2026.
