Description
The City of Lynchburg is seeking bids for the provision of petroleum products, including aviation fuel and gasoline, for its aviation and rental vehicles. The contract will be for a period of one year, with the option to renew for up to 180 days. Bidders must provide pricing for the products, as well as information on their experience, resources, and ability to deliver the products.

* The City is exempt from payment of Federal Excise Tax and State and Local Sales and Use Tax on all tangible personal property purchased or leased by the City for its use or consumption.
* The successful bidder will be required to provide new, rather than used, goods and fresh stock.
* The successful bidder will be responsible for any damage to the City's property or adjoining properties caused by the delivery of the products.
* The successful bidder must comply with all federal, state, and local regulations and directives regarding the safe delivery and transfer of motor fuel into underground or aboveground storage tanks.
