SUMMARY OF WORK

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

A. Project Identification: Upgrade Over-Dutied Electrical Panels / Circuit Breakers, Western Regional Research Center (WRRC), USDA Agricultural Research Service, Albany, CA.

1. Project Location: WRRC Campus, Albany, California

2. Government: United States Department of Agriculture

3. Architect Identification: The Contract Documents were prepared for Project by:

TECTONICS Architects/Planners/Engineers 1500 Park Avenue Emeryville, CA 94608 Tel: (510) 740-2400 Fax: (510) 740-2405

B. The Work consists of selective demolition, and replacement of existing panels in various buildings, as defined in the plans and specifications.

1.2 CONTRACT AND CONTRACTING OFFICER

A. Project will be constructed under a general construction contract.

B. Only the Contracting Officer shall issue written directives/instructions for defining the roles and responsibilities and appointment of a Contracting Officer Representative (COR); Location Monitor (LM); Project Manager (PM); Occupational Health & Safety Manager and/or any other functional subject matter expert as deemed necessary for the scope of work included in the Statement of Work (SOW).

1.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. The scope of work of the project includes upgrades to over-dutied panels / circuit breakers at Main Building (basement, 1st Floor, 2nd Floor, South Attic, Roof-top Greenhouse), Greenhouse Complex (Quarantine Headhouse), Service Building, West Annex Building (1st Floor), and the Wool Building.

1. Project Specifications: All specifications for the project are incorporated into the Project Specification Manual.

SECTION 01010 Page 2

100% Submittal 12 May 2017

2. Project Drawings: The drawing numbers for this project are as defined below:

G General E Electrical

1.4 WORK SEQUENCE

A. The WRRC facility is a working scientific research facility that must maintain full operation during the construction of this project. This requires construction constraints as defined on the Drawings and in these Specifications, including Section 01105, Special Conditions.

B. Panelboards shall be replaced in an order to be determined by the Contractor and as approved by the Contracting Officer.

a. Record existing panelboard circuiting and tag wires prior to demolition. Reconnect all circuits as previously recorded.

C. Contractor shall submit to the Government a downtime schedule for each panel, a minimum of 15 calendar days in advance of the panel shutdown. Contractor shall provide temporary power as noted, and when the disruption of power is deemed by the Government as adversely affecting Location operations.

1.5 USE OF PREMISES

A. Limit use of the premises to construction activities in the numbered areas indicated. The Government will occupy major portions of the existing building during construction.

1. Limit use of the premises for work, storage and access.

Confine operations to areas within the work boundary as indicated on the Contract Drawings. Do not disturb portions of the building or the site beyond the limits of construction. Any work that is required to be performed outside the work boundary requires prior approval from the Government’s designee.

2. Coordinate use of premises by all subcontractors.

3. Move stored products that interfere with the operations of the Government or other contractors.

4. Obtain and pay for use of additional storage or work areas needed for operations under this Contract.

5. Keep driveways, fire lanes and entrances serving the premises clear and available for Government operations and Government employees at all times. Do not use these areas for parking or storage of materials.

SECTION 01010 Page 3

100% Submittal 12 May 2017

B. There are existing exit stairs, corridors and elevators in the Main Building South Wing. The Contractor is responsible for maintaining the exit stairs, corridors and elevators accessible for building occupants at all times during the construction. When the construction is required to close an exit stair, corridor or elevator, the Contractor shall submit for Government approval, a minimum of 15 calendar days prior to a proposed closure, a proposal indicating the dates when stair and/or corridor and/or elevator will be closed and alternate routes for the occupants’ use. In all cases, the remaining exit stair shall remain unobstructed for emergency exit. Use of the elevator shall be restricted to personnel only. Prior approval must be obtained from Facilities Engineer (Tom Moreno, 510-559-5622, Room 3012) for non-personnel use of an elevator.

1.6 WORK UNDER OTHER CONTRACTS

A. Separate Contracts: Government may award separate contracts for performance of other construction operations at Project site, including but not limited to a telecommunications infrastructure upgrade project.

B. Cooperate fully with other contractors such that work on those contracts may be carried out smoothly, without interfering with or delaying work under this Contract.

1.7 SPECIFICATION FORMATS AND CONVENTIONS

A. Specification Format: The Specifications are organized into Divisions and Sections using the CSI/CSC MasterFormat numbering system – the five-digit format for most Division 1 sections and the six-digit format for all other sections.

B. Section Identification: The Specifications use section numbers and titles to help cross-referencing in the Contract Documents. Sections in the Specifications are in numeric sequence; however, the sequence is incomplete. Consult the Table of Contents at the beginning of the Specifications to determine numbers and names of sections in the Contract Documents.
