SCOPE OF WORK

ATLANTA AIR ROUTE TRAFFIC CONTROL CENTER

REPLACE 4-INCH SANITARY SEWER PIPE IN

ZTL AUTOMATION BASEMENT

Project Location: 299 Woolsey Road Hampton, GA 30228

1. STATEMENT OF WORK

The FAA Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center (ATL ARTCC) includes a wing that houses the Automation Systems for the facility. There is an existing 4” sanitary sewer pipe located in the basement of the Automation Wing. The pipe is part of the sanitary sewer system for the ARTCC facility. The existing pipe is cracked, allowing sewage smells to migrate into the space. Steps have been taken to mitigate this smell by wrapping the pipe. The damaged section of pipe needs to be replaced. The contractor shall furnish necessary equipment, materials, labor, and supervision to perform the following work at the Atlanta ARTCC, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) navigational control facility located at 299 Woolsey Road, Hampton, Georgia 30228. Work within this will require escort, and possibly badging requirements, which might include background checks for all onsite personnel, and must be coordinated with the FAA Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) in advance.

1. Remove and dispose of approximately 75 feet of 4-inch sanitary sewer pipe located in Room B149 of the Automation Wing. (All dimensions shall be field verified by contractor)

2. Install approximately 75 feet of new sanitary sewer pipe. Pipe material shall be cast iron with no-hub fittings. Installation must include required no hub husky bands, clevis hangers and other hardware required for a complete replacement of the 75-ft. section of damaged pipe. The existing pipe fittings are 4-inch Victaulic couplings.

3. There are logistical items that must be considered for assembling and constructing this section of new pipe:

a) The existing pipe is fed by both pressurized (lift station) and unpressurized (gravity drain).

b) Deactivating the lift station addresses part of the inputs. Contractor, with support from

FAA, shall be responsible for determining inputs to allow for replacement of existing pipe.

c) Toilet facilities impacted by potential outage is uncertain. If bathrooms are removed from service, nighttime work is required.

d) Work may require septic pump truck onsite to pull off lift station before pumps engage.

4. The following is identified and may be considered by the Contractor for replacing of the 4-inch pipe.

The contractor will not be limited to the following options for replacing the pipe. A submittal is required for the Contractor’s proposed plan to replace the 4-inch pipe.

a) Erecting a new sanitary pipe run adjacent to the existing so that the cutover process from old to new can be accomplished in under 1 hour.

• This may require taking the bathrooms out of service during this time (taking bathrooms out of service requires night work).

b) Shut down lift station and divert gravity fed effluent from input streams to lift station via temporary hoses and/or pipes.

• May require having a septic pump truck on site to pull off lift station before pumps engage.

5. A submittal is required for Contractor’s plan to accomplish replacing the 4-inch pipe. Plan shall include drawing detailing location, spacing and number of support hangers. Plan shall include methodology that will be utilized to cutover from the existing pipe to the new sanitary sewer pipe.

See submittal requirements under Special Requirements, paragraph 3.

6. A submittal is required for all materials, including but not limited to, 4” cast iron pipe, no hub fittings, bands, hangers and other required hardware.

7. All materials, fabrication, installation, examination and testing for installed piping systems shall be in accordance with the requirements of ASME Code for Pressure Piping, B31.9, Building Services Piping.

8. IF shutting down the toilets, contractor shall provide a minimum of two (2) temporary toilets for the duration of the outage.

9. FAA shall be responsible for removing furniture/equipment and any other items that require temporary relocation for the duration of the project.

10. If items cannot be temporarily relocated, Contractor shall be responsible for covering and protecting any equipment in the work area.

11. Contractor must properly dispose of all 4-inch pipe and associated hardware removed to an offsite disposal facility.
