About this file
This document appears to be a set of design drawings and engineering specifications for a new communications shelter to be installed at the Mount Lewis location, managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Nevada Region.
The key details include soil resistivity testing results indicating a soil resistivity of 34,470 ohm-cm, which will guide the grounding system design. The drawings provide the site layout, shelter design, electrical one-line diagram, and external grounding system specifications. The grounding system will utilize four 10-foot ground rods spaced 20 feet apart and interconnected with #2 AWG bare copper conductor. This grounding configuration is calculated to provide a total resistance of 17.15 ohms.
The related federal contract opportunity is for "GAOA MT LEWIS RADIO SAFETY REPAIRS" solicited by the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management Nevada Region, with a solicitation number of 140L3924Q0127.
