Question 2.

There is no trench currently installed at VAMC Fayetteville and the drain piping

for the washer/extractors is through floor piping. Please validate that since there

is no trench present onsite it is acceptable to exclude the above referenced

diamond plate from the project requirements.

Answer 2.

Technical Specification subsection #25 on page 4 has been removed in its entirety.

Question 3.

Typically, an Uninterrupted Power Supply is not required for washer extractors

and gas heated tumblers. The inclusion of this requirement could significantly increase cost and scope of the project and provide limited operational benefit. Please validate if in this instance an Uninterrupted Power Supply is only a requirement for the Washer Control System?
