About this file

This document is a Questions and Answers Addendum for Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 580-24-RFQ-0012 issued by the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) for the development of a numerical groundwater availability model for the Marathon Aquifer. The RFQ outlines the requirements for responses, including a 22-page limit and guidelines for font size and image legibility. The document addresses questions related to the submission of financial records, page limit, and disclosure of ownership information. TWDB provides responses clarifying that financial records can be included as attachments, that there is no minimum font size but readability is important, and that the last four digits of Social Security numbers for owners with at least 25% ownership must be provided.

The related state and local contract opportunity involves the development of the Marathon Aquifer Numerical Model, to be awarded by the TWDB. The project will cover the jurisdictions of Travis County and the City of Austin, Texas. Respondents must demonstrate the ability to complete the project within the guidelines of the solicitation and applicable laws and regulations.

Questions & Answers Addendum Solicitation No. 580-24-RFQ-0012

REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS NO. 580-24-RFQ-0012

FOR

DEVELOP A NUMERICAL GROUNDWATER AVAILABILITY MODEL

FOR THE MARATHON AQUIFER

ADDENDUM 1 – QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question 1: Under Section 2.2 (Requirements), Item N states that one of the requirements is “Demonstration of financial capability through submission of financial records that will substantiate the financial soundness of your business”. Furthermore, given that Section 4.1 (RFQ Requirements), states that “The response, including attachments, must not exceed 22 pages”, where in the Statement of Qualifications should we include the financial records so that they will not count towards the page limit?

TWDB Response: The demonstration of financial capability can be included as an attachment at the end of the document and will not be counted towards the 22-page limit.

Question 2: The opening paragraph of Section 4.1 (RFQ Requirements) provides the overall requirements for responses, including the length (22 pages). However, Section

4.1 does not specify font sizes for body text or graphics (e.g., charts, tables, figures, etc.).

Are there any font size restrictions?

TWDB Response: Font size: There is no minimum font size, however, the text should be readable when printed. We suggest a minimum of 11-point font.

Image size: At a minimum, all text and items in the legend should be legible. Symbols (points, lines, polygons, bars, etc.) should be visible and able to differentiate from each other. Supplementary images (i.e., resume headshots, other images not directly referenced in the text, etc.) have no minimum size limit.
