About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document (Attachment L-3) issued on April 20, 2026, as Amendment 1 to RFQ 89233126QNA000465.
The document addresses two key inquiries regarding staffing requirements for this solicitation. First, it clarifies that Attachment M-1 does not prescribe specific key personnel positions or minimum education and experience requirements. Instead, vendors must propose labor categories, hours, and key personnel with qualifications sufficient to meet the Statement of Work (SOW) under Factor 2 (Staffing Approach). Evaluation is pass/fail, with staffing deemed acceptable only if it demonstrates the ability to meet all SOW requirements with no material omissions. Second, the document defines "qualified legal counsel" as required under Section 11.0, Task 1 (Project Management) for legal review and quality control of NEPA documentation. Qualified legal counsel must be licensed and in good standing with a state bar and competent to perform NEPA-related legal review. A law degree alone without bar admission does not satisfy this requirement. The legal counsel may be provided in-house or through subcontract.

April 20, 2026 Attachment L-3 - Questions and Answers
RFQ Amend 1: 89233126QNA000465 Page 1 of 1
# Question Answer 1 Please identify the Key Personnel positions and their minimum education and/or experience requirements.
Attachment M-1 does not prescribe specific key personnel positions or minimum education/experience requirements. Under Factor 2 (Staffing Approach), vendors shall propose labor categories, hours, and key personnel (if applicable) with qualifications sufficient to meet the SOW. Evaluation is pass/fail; staffing is acceptable if it demonstrates the ability to meet all SOW requirements with no material omissions. Accordingly, key personnel positions and minimum qualifications are vendor-defined, provided they meet SOW requirements.
2 Please define the requirements for a "qualified legal counsel." For instance, would a staff member with a law degree qualify or does the legal counsel need to be an active member of the bar?
Section 11.0, Task 1 (Project Management) requires the Contractor to include legal review as part of its internal quality control and to provide qualified legal counsel (in-house or subcontract). The SOW does not explicitly define minimum qualifications; however, to ensure legal sufficiency of NEPA documentation and independent legal review, qualified legal counsel is interpreted as an individual who is licensed and in good standing with a state bar and competent to perform NEPA-related legal review. A law degree alone without bar admission would not meet this intent.
