DISCLOSURE

The master copy of each response to this RFQ shall be retained for official files and will become

a public record after the award of a contract unless the qualifications or specific parts of the

qualifications can be shown to be exempt by law (Government Code section 6250 et seq.). Each

Responding Firm may clearly label part of a submittal as "CONFIDENTIAL" if the Responding

Firm agrees to indemnify and defend the STA for honoring such a designation. The failure to so

label any information that is released by the STA shall constitute a complete waiver of all claims

for damages caused by any release of the information. If a public records request for labeled

information is received by the STA, the STA will notify the Responding Firm of the request and

delay access to the material until seven working days after notification to the Responding Firm.

Within that time delay, it will be the duty of the Responding Firm to act in protection of its

labeled information. Failure to so act shall constitute a complete waiver.

PROTEST AND APPEALS

Any actual or prospective bidder, offeror, or contractor who is aggrieved in connection with the

Solicitations or Notice of Intent to Award a contract may protest to the Executive Director. The

protest shall be submitted in writing to the Executive Director within seven (7) working days

after such aggrieved person or company knows or should have known of the facts giving rise

thereto. All letters of protest shall clearly identify the reasons for the protest. The protest also

must state the law, rule, regulation, or policy upon which the protest is based. The Executive

Director shall issue a written decision within ten (10) working days after receipt of the protest.

The decision shall state the reason for the action taken and inform the protester that a request of

further administrative appeal of an adverse decision must be submitted in writing to the Clerk of

the STA Board of Directors within seven (7) working days after receipt of the decision by the

Executive Director.
