PRE LEASE BUILDING SECURITY

1.01 SECURITY FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION

The Lessor shall provide a written certification from a licensed professional engineer that the Building conforms to a minimum of:

A. Window glazing and façade protection level, with a performance condition as specified in this Lease, as prescribed by WINGARD 4.1 or later or WINLAC 4.3 software.

B. Setback distance is 25 feet, from the face of the Building's exterior to the protected/defended perimeter (i.e., any potential point of explosion). This means the distance from the Building to the curb or other boundary protected by bollards, planters or other street furniture. Such potential points of explosion may be, but are not limited to, such areas that could be accessible by any motorized vehicle (i.e., street, alley, sidewalk, driveway, parking lot).

C. Lobbies, mailrooms, and loading docks shall not share a return-air system with the remaining areas of the Building. The Lessor shall provide lobby, mailroom, and loading dock ventilation systems' outside air intakes and exhausts with low leakage, fast acting, isolation dampers that can be closed to isolate their systems. Dedicated HVAC shall be required for mailrooms only when the Government specifically requires a centrally operated mailroom. On Buildings of more than four stories, air intakes shall be located on the fourth floor or higher. On Buildings of three stories or less, air intakes shall be located on the roof or as high as practical. Locating intakes high on a wall is preferred over a roof location.

D. The Offeror shall provide a Pre-Lease Building Security Plan (BSP) with its offer that addresses its compliance with the lease security standards, as described in this RLP and its attachments.

E. The Offeror shall provide the Government with all design and engineering documents, including structural engineering calculations.

F. All windows and doors at grade level shall be the most current VA security requirements.

G. If the offeror cannot meet the setback distance requirement of 25 feet the lessor may, at lessor expense, provide bollards around the property as required. This substitution must meet security level two physical safety standards and be approved by the VA on a case-by-case basis.

H. Offers must include an itemized estimate for the costs of each security item identified as “shell” in the Lease Security Standards section elsewhere in this RLP and for any security item identified as a Special Requirement.
