16. The drawings note things to be installed by the “Contractor”, installed by “Customer” and

“CSH”. Are we to provide and install only items noted as “Contractor” or items also noted as

“Customer”?

Response: Contractor is to provide/install all items that are not identified to be provided and/or installed by Carestream (CSH). See note updates below.

17. Can we assume all items noted as provide and install by CSH is not our responsibility.

CSH items to systems provided by the contractor. Contractor is to coordinate the system removal/installation/start up with the equipment provider.

18. Sheet E1 Electrical Legend R1, R2 and WD. The existing Risers (R1 and R2) and wall ducts are to be relocated, however it states to “provide dividers per local code”. Can you provide the details of what will be installed in the wall ducts and risers so the number of can be determined or provide the number of dividers to be provided?

Response: Items installed in the wall ducts are identified in the plans.

19. Sheet E1 Electrical Legend TR. Who is responsible for providing the transformer? Can you provide the information on the transformer?

Response: Equipment supplier has provided an update that the TR is to be provided by

CSH and wired into the PDU by the contractor.

Response: Yes, provide a switch that meets current codes.

22. Sheet E1 Network and Outlet Legend – NW1, NW2 and NW3. Can you provide the location these are to connect too? Please provide a floor plan showing connection point to the network.

Response: CAT6 cable length shall be long enough (and have coil length) to be run through hallway corridors to Room A223A. VA expecs this project to be complete before the EHRM TR room is complete in this area so the current patch panel is in room B216. If the EHRM TR room is complete in this area the patch panel will be in room A223A.

23. Sheet E1 Network and Outlet Legend – NW1, NW2 and NW3. Are there requirements to connect this to an existing patch panel? And are there any testing requirements for these cables?
