An Industrial Hygiene Office report is attached to the solicitation. Q. Do you require any specific naming conventions or organization of the documents? A. Files will be named based on the drawing number and revision. Organization of the data is not as important as naming the files appropriately. Q. What is the scanning resolution required for the aperture cards- A. Information on aperture cards should be readable, high resolution not necessary. Q. Building 58 where the documents are stored is contaminated per the IH report, but to what extent are the documents contaminated? A.
