Request for Information Replace Generator and Associated Repairs Dairy Forage Research Center (DFRC) Madison, Wi Solicitation 12505B23R0007
Q: Is there a required sound requirement (in dBA) for the generator? The spec calls out automatic dampers which usually come standard on a level 2 enclosure. I have attached our sound emissions data for the level 2 enclosure for your review.
A: USDA: The outdoor generator set enclosure shall provide sound attenuation such that measured noise level of the operating generator installation (generator / enclosure) ranges from 63 to 78 dB (A) when operating from no‐load to full‐load conditions, with measurement at 7 meters from generator set (i.e. Level 2 enclosure).
Q: There is a natural gas line very close to the proposed generator location; would the USDA accept a natural gas alternative to diesel?
A: USDA: Proposals from offerors shall be based on providing the diesel type generator as specified in the Statement of Work and associated documents.
Q: Is Generac considered an acceptable manufacturer?
A: USDA: Please reference page 26 32 13‐4, paragraph 26 32 13.2.1.A of Project Specifications; add “Generac” as an acceptable manufacturer. All acceptable manufacturers indicated in paragraph 2.1.A.
shall be subject to compliance with the requirements indicated in Specification Section 26 32 13.
Q: Clarification on contractor staging areas and contractor parking for the project.
A: USDA: Offeror’s proposal shall be based on having an approximate 25’ x 28’ asphalt exterior space available for contractor staging and storage of material (this space is located east side of the building, located near the loading dock – west of Stair 100E).
