# Questions Answers
For the 30’ x 60’ tent, it mentions walls on the 60’ side of the tent.
Are the other three sides completely open or should they be able to be closed as well?
There will need to be side walls on each of the 60 foot sides, however, there needs to be a small opening to connect the smaller 20’x10’ tent.
2 Are the tent walls to be white or are they to have windows in them? Solid white and no windows
3 What ground surface will the tents be installed on? Asphalt
4 How are the tents to be secured? Can we drive stake into the surface, or must they be secured with concrete weights? Nothing can be done to the surface
Our crews do not install or remove tents on Sunday. However, we can install or remove early or late on Saturday or Monday. We are also on call for emergencies on Sunday. Is this acceptable?
Installation/Removal can be any day of the week. If the contractor is not able to do installation/removal any day of the week, that is not acceptable.
Will you accept an external finisher for this request? The external finisher offers multi position stapling and two output trays where the internal does not?
No answer

8 If the generators require refueling due to extended runtime, who is responsible for this? The vendor.
9 Are the tent walls expected to be tracked walls to minimize flapping and blowing in the wind?
That would be preferred. The side walls should not flap in the wind.

What generators are you looking for - will you be running the generator for a single shift (8 hours shift) or 24/7? Do you have a specific brand/make/model in mind?
The generator will run the entirety of the days requested. Make or model doesn’t matter, just needs to meet the kilo watts requested.
In regards to how you want your proposal submitted, is there a specific format you'd prefer (PDF or Word, separate documents or put everything in one document, etc)?
No answer

The SOW has been revised. One 10x20 needs 3 sidewalls and the other tent needs to be either a 12x12
Regarding the solar light towers: in case of inclement weather, are the listed generators intended as backup power, or are they meant to power other equipment?
