Answer to Question 1

If the lowest responsible bidder refuses to be awarded a contract the owner is compensated by the surety for the difference between the lowest bidder and the second lower bidder up to the bid bond amount.

Answer to Question 2

The Freedom of Information Act helps contractors when they are filing a claim against the government by providing a process for obtaining records kept by the government that pertain to projects that have prompted contractors to file claims.
