1.6. Project Specific Design and Construction Requirements. The Contractor shall incorporate as part of their design and include in the construction the following requirements in accordance with all regulations, requirements, and standards identified in this RFP. The following requirements provide more detail than the generic descriptions provided in Section 1.1 of this RFP; and are the minimum requirements that ultimately satisfy the User’s needs and wants. The Contractor shall provide a complete and usable facility based around the User’s needs and requirements and constructed in accordance and in compliance with commercial and industry standards.

1.6.1. General Requirements.

Power Generation Shelter (existing system description and project justification-summary):

The MES/Power Generation Shelter comprises of three rooms (200-202) that have a legacy clean agent fire suppression system capable of extinguishing fires from three large 800KW diesel generators, three 150-gallon day tanks, UPS, switching gear, transformers, power filters, two heat pumps, two CRACs and associated electrical equipment.

150-gallon diesel fuel tanks are co-located with each generator provided fuel from the 12K tank outside for each generator they are associated with. They are always full and provide fuel as the generators as it demands. The PGS currently utilizes two Kidde Fenwall 6000 FACP Fire Suppression System nodes supporting twenty-one (21) Argonite bottles for room 200, one (1) Novec 1230 for room 201, and one (1) Novec 1230 for room 202. The entire system protects the individual areas from a fire in the occurrence of an event while preventing extended down time. The current Argonite system in room 200 is the primary concern as those tanks are no longer supported. A new clean agent system capable of replacing the tanks in Room 200 while maintaining the minimum capacity and flow rate to extinguish a fire in that area is the primary concern. Utilizing any applicable existing wiring, components and piping is highly preferred. Novec 1230 systems in rooms 201 and 202 should be maintained while migrating them to a new FACP if necessary. All areas are protected through smoke detectors and heat wire in a cross-zone configuration that will stage the FACP into a first stage alarm and second stage alarm for discharge and notification if a fire occurs that shuts down HVAC, Generators, Day Tanks, and Fuel Flow before discharge. Existing FACP system configurations are highly encouraged to be maintained while following the NFPA and UL Guidance.

The PGS is divided into three (3) separate rooms.

• Room 200 has three (3) generators, three (3) diesel day tanks, electrical switching/management gear and small amounts of flammable material that is properly stored.

• Each room has unique design characteristics. The contractor is responsible to ensure design, installation, room modifications and controls are specific to Room 200's to that room’s characteristics while meeting UFC 3-600-01 requirements. Expected skills/trades may include but not limited to; fire system design and

01011-3 installation, Fire suppression equipment & controls, low voltage and fiber optic termination and test, electrician, sprinkler-pipe fitter, door re-work and possible welding.
