1. Q: Is the required bid bond for the seed project or the contract?

A: Yes, seed project

2. Q: Is the proposed staffing requirement listed in the RFP for the seed project or the contract?

A: Staffing requirement is for the contract

3. Q: Is there a bid schedule for the seed project? If so will you please post it? We are unable to locate it within the RFP package.

4. Q: Do Exhaust fans to be installed by contractor and is made a part of the SOW.

A: If code requires that we have exhaust fans with AC then you need to design in exhaust fans.

5. Q: Will bidders be provided an approximate location of the propane tank the NPS is providing so that we can know how much gas line will be required?

A: The tank will be located approx. 25’ from the building.

6. Q: The electrical panel seems to be full. Are we to include a new electrical upgrade in our proposal? If so are we to set a subpanel or provide a new service to the building?

A: If the panel is deemed to be too full to add additional power for the exhaust fans and the AC then it is up to you as a design build firm to provide proposals for a a new subpanel or new power to the building per your electrical engineer.

7. Q: We understand the ADA portion will be bid as an option, should that option include an ADA compliant route from the parking to the restroom?

A: A new accessible ADA walkway to the building is not part of this contract. If Wendell wants to add it as an additional bid item that's fine by me but we have to send it out to everybody, of course.

8. Q: If we are to match the existing floor and wall tile in the ADA option, can the NPS provide any information as to type of tile exists?

A: The manufacture and type of tile used in that building is probably not available to us in the information that we have saved. It would be up to the bidders to determine whether they can match that tile based on the information they have available to us at this time.
