Design Guidelines for Rooftop PV. Contractor shall develop a design for a new rooftop PV system at locations 2 through 5. See attached site maps indicating available areas for installation. These maps are meant for informational purposes only and must be field-verified by the contractor. • The mounting system shall minimize roof penetrations and may include building-integrated roof PV or fully ballasted. The mounting system design needs to meet applicable local building code requirements with respect to snow, wind, and earthquake factors. • Conduit penetrations shall be minimized. • If the system is not building-integrated or membrane-sealed, the system shall be fixed-tilt (minimum 5-degree tilt for flat roof or flush mounted for sloped roof) with an orientation that maximizes annual energy production. • All roof access points shall be securely locked at the end of each day. • The system layout shall meet local fire department, code, and ordinance requirements for roof access. Design Guidelines for Ground-Mounted PV. The contractor shall develop a design for a new ground-mounted PV system at location 1. See attached site maps indicating available areas for installation. Not all locations need to be used. It is the responsibility of the contractor to assess site topography and USGS Soil Maps to estimate costs related to project installation.
