| Question |
| Reference PWS para 1.5.10. - Will storage space be provided for the parts (annual maintenance) and materials? |
| Answer |
| Yes. We can lend some extra space in the co-generation plant area to the |
contractor. But it is space for materials only during overhaul and quarterly maintenance. There will not be a shed and/or warehouse provided for storage of materials. We are not sure at this point whether the space will be indoor or outdoor of the co-generation plant. Storage site will be decided by detail coordination with plant operator and COR after the contract award but before the start-up of the performance.
