About this file
This is a Designation of Confidential and Proprietary Information form submitted by a firm in response to a Request for Proposals issued by the East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (ECWRPC) for consulting services to conduct an economic impact study of bicycling and walking facilities in the Appleton Transportation Management Area and Oshkosh Metropolitan Planning Organization. The form allows proposing firms to designate specific pages of their proposal as confidential and proprietary information protected under Wisconsin State Statute Section 19.36(5) or the Wisconsin Open Records law. Firms must identify the specific section numbers and page numbers containing trade secret information, which is defined as information deriving independent economic value from not being generally known and subject to reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy. The project deadline for completion is June 30, 2022, with an anticipated presentation to the Commission in July 2022.
Firms submitting proposals must recognize that pricing information always becomes public upon proposal opening and cannot be designated as confidential. The form requires firms to sign and date the designation, accepting responsibility to defend any challenged confidentiality designations and holding ECWRPC harmless for damages arising from release of material unless specifically identified on this form. Failure to include this completed form with the proposal response may result in all submitted information being subject to public examination or copying. General markings of confidentiality within the proposal document itself are considered insufficient; only information formally designated on this attachment will receive confidential treatment.

ATTACHMENT A: Designation of Confidential and Proprietary Information
____This firm is NOT designating any information as proprietary and confidential under Sect 19.36(5) of Wisconsin State
Statute or under the Wisconsin Open Records law.
____This firm IS designating the below information as propriety and confidential under Sect 19.36(5) of Wisconsin State
Statute or under the Wisconsin Open Records law. (If checked, please complete all portions below.)
The attached material submitted in response to this Proposal includes propriety and confidential information which qualifies as a trade secret, as provided in Sect 19.36(5), Wisconsin State Statutes, or is otherwise material that can be kept confidential under the Wisconsin Open Records law. As such, we ask that certain pages, as indicated below, of this proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.
Prices always become public information when proposals are opened; therefore, they cannot be designated as confidential.
Attach additional sheets if necessary.
Section Page Number Topic
Other information cannot be kept confidential unless it is a trade secret. Trade secret is defined in Sect. 134(90)(1)(c) Wis.
State Statutes as: “information, including formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method technique or process to which all of the following apply:
1. The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.
2. The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances.
In the event the Designation of Confidential of this information is challenged, the undersigned hereby agrees to provide legal counsel or other necessary assistance to defend the Designation of Confidentiality.
Failure to include this form in the proposal response may mean that all information provided as part of the proposal response will be open to examination or copying. East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission considers other marking of confidential in the proposal document to be insufficient. The undersigned agrees to hold East Central
Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission harmless for any damages arising out of the release of any material unless they are specifically identified above.
