48. Question: Spec 26 30 01- 1.5.A The solar panel manufacturers do not offer system engineering support.

Answer: Solar panel manufacturers provide support for the required components to make the system complete, and solar studies prior to installation are commonly performed.

49. Question: Obtaining a solar collector (panel) often do not distribute inverters, rails, etc. And are sourced from different supplier sources. Please waive, or advise who has all main materials in stock at time of purchase.

Answer: The intent is for the bidder to provide a single system and manufacturer who should be supplying all components for a complete system, and not piecing it together.

50. Question: Spec 26 30 01- 1.6.A Confirm this is to mean there is an expected 20year output on the solar panels, not on the output or workmanship. State period of workmanship is 1year.

Otherwise, no bid. Unless there is a O & M services contract to be executed, warranted output is outside most contractor insurance and excluded maintenance is cause for long term production guarantees.

Answer: This is confirmed.

51. Question: Spec 26 30 01- 1.6.B Solar installation shall not void the existing roofing manufacturer’s warranty and shall be installed by a certified roofing contractor as defined by the roofing manufacturer. This eliminates nearly all, if not all bids. Request waved.

Answer: Specification is requesting that system be optimized. System manufacturer and installer should be able optimize.

54. Question: Spec 26 31 01- 2.1.A.2 Old spec, monocrystalline for 550W sized panel are not the norm.

They are bi-facial or polycrystalline cell.

Answer: BOD is for largest cell available, no exceptions to substitution.

55. Question: Spec 26 31 01- 2.1.A.6 There is no solar panel manufactured in the US, today. Not one, some do “some” final assembly but cells are nearly exclusively from oversees. US companies fold quickly.

Answer: Contractor is to bid solar panels as if they are not BAA or BABAA compliant. ODFW will work with the Contractor that is awarded the contract to address issues like this.

56. Question: Spec 26 31 01- 2.2 This spec is 8+year old, b/c Only Suntech (issues above) and QCells are still around. We request an “or equal acceptance so not a sole-source project of non-near bankrupt company exists for better pricing to owner.

Answer: In section 2.2.A of the specification it lists at the end the option of “or approved equal”.

57. Question: Are topsoil amounts shown on L210 to total or in addition to the topsoil call out in surface restoration section 3.4: Landscape Restoration?
