The Contractor shall repair or replace any existing utilities damaged during construction. The PUP is American Water. The demark for bidding purposes is the first cleanout closest to the building. Verify during design. There is no known sanitary sewer work in this project.




3.1.4. STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEM: The design and construction of the storm drainage system shall be in accordance with UFC 3-230-17FA Drainage in Areas Other than Airfields, Federal Highway Administration Publication No. FHWA-NHI-01-021, Hydraulic Engineering Circular No. 22 Second Edition URBAN DRAINAGE DESIGN MANUAL, and U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40, dated May 1961, Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States for Durations from 30 minutes to 24 hours, and return periods from 1 to 100 years. Design of the storm drainage system shall incorporate the principles of Low Impact Development (LID), as detailed in UFC 3-210-10 DESIGN: LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT MANUAL. The Contractor has the option of using concrete pipe, corrugated steel pipe, corrugated aluminum alloy pipe, PVC or Corrugated PE pipe for the underground storm drain pipes, where applicable except that all pipe repair shall use pipe materials matching existing pipe. The Contractor is responsible for designing the storm drainage system to be as economical as possible, while taking into account the topography, drainage area, and outfall locations, as well as coordination with existing drainage systems, and existing and future underground utilities. During the construction of the facilities, the Contractor shall be responsible for the SWPPP for the entire construction site limits.

3.1.5. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT MEASURES: Install stormwater management measures that meet the requirements of Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The Contractor's design shall maintain or restore, to the maximum extent technically feasible, the predevelopment hydrology of the site with regard to the temperature, rate, volume, and duration of flow in accordance with Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007.

3.1.9. ELECTRICAL SERVICE: There are no changes to the electric service for




bidding purposes. Verify during design. The PUP is Entergy, the power supply is considered reliable with outages totaling 124 minutes from Oct, 2017 through March 2020, therefore no generator is required for electric fire pumps. The demark for bidding purposes is the secondary side of the transformer, which is close to the building. If any work is indicated for light poles, for bidding purposes we believe they are fed from the building, so the electrical would be in this contract. Verify during design.

<(AM-0004)




For any new work and the loads associated with it, the D.O.R. shall also be responsible for strengthening of existing components to meet all applicable requirements for all other design loads as defined in IBC-2018, such as gravity dead and live loads, wind loads and seismic loads. The Structural D.O.R. is responsible for the specification and design of connections and fasteners to structural and exterior wall components. Also included is support for architectural features, mechanical, and electrical equipment.

7.1.3 Structural Building Components

The following represents some of the items found in the building however, it is the Contractors responsibility to review all structural components and determine what items need to be repaired or replaced.

It was found that many of the metal building columns, base plates, and anchor bolts were maintained with protective paint to minimize moisture deterioration. The 2 columns at grid M-10 and M-11 appear to have been previously repaired by having the bottom 2 feet of the metal building column, base plate, and anchor bolts replaced. The four end of building columns along grid 1, the four end of building columns along grid P, and the two columns along grid N were found to have deterioration that appear to be due to condensation along the wall. These columns do not have protective paint like the other columns. There is rod x-bracing that connects to the base of the deteriorated columns along grid 1 and along grid P.
