1. Project Information
1.1. Location of Work:
1.1.1. Building Number: AK0521AB
1.1.2. Name: Dalton Cache Land Port of Entry (LPOE)
1.1.3. Address: Milepost 42 – Haines Highway Dalton Cache, AK
1.2. Area: The Generators are in the lower level of the LPOE station (AK0521AB) and accessed from an at grade loading area via a pair of metal doors.
1.3. Background:
The Dalton Cache Land Port of Entry (LPOE), more informally known as the Haines border station, is located at Haines, Alaska. Haines is located at the northern end of Lynn Canal, the longest fjord in the United States, and is between the Chilkoot and Chilkat Rivers, bordered by the Chilkat Mountain Range on the west and the Coast Range on the east. Haines is 85 air miles northwest of the capital city of Juneau and about 600 air miles southeast of Anchorage and Fairbanks. The Haines border station is connected by a road which initially transitions through western Canada but eventually leads to the interior of eastern Alaska. The Haines border station is frequented by tourists who transit the border stations enroute to such attractions as Alaska's Glacier Bay National Park, 25 miles from downtown Haines, and to Canada's nearby Kluane National Park and Tatshenshini Alsek Provincial Park. The Haines border station, built in 1979, was designed to meet the specific mission requirements of a border station and is occupied by Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The facility is composed of 3 buildings: a residence which is out leased to the maintenance and operations contractor (AK0523AB); a storage shed (AK0525AB); and the LPOE station (AK0521AB). None of the Haines border station buildings are LEED certified and none are on the National Register.
1.3.1. Project Purpose:
1.3.1.1. Dalton Cache (Haines) LPOE building was designed and operated to generate its own power, which required three 50kW generators and three controllers before connecting to city utility power.
1.3.1.2. The three generators and controllers are still connected to the electrical service and serve as backup power. One of the three controllers is currently inoperable and therefore, the generator is down as well. The emergency power in the building does not meet today’s code requirements, the entire existing electrical service will need to be evaluated, and the generator(s) will need replacement.
1.3.2. Project Summary:
1.3.2.1. GSA has conducted a study for this generator replacement which covers the following, but not limited to:
1.3.2.1.1. New generator room with fire rated walls and ceiling.
