About this file
This is a Specifications document for the replacement of a Test and Training Lab (TTL) room lighting and dimmer system at Oakland Center ARTCC in Fremont, California. The project is being prepared by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ATO Tech Ops Engineering Services, Seattle Enroute Unit, dated September 2025.
The scope of work includes removal of existing light fixtures and lighting control panels, provision and installation of approved submittals and shop drawings, and installation of LED light fixtures and lighting controls for the Automation Wing 1st floor area. Key technical specifications require LED interior lighting with a minimum Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 80, Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) of 3500K, and an L70 lamp life of 50,000 hours. All lighting must be dimmable from 100 to 0 percent output. The project incorporates digital-network lighting controls with wired networked devices, system backbone and integration equipment, and software interfaces capable of supporting at least 128 devices per zone and 128 system-wide control zones. Basis-of-design products specified include nLight by Acuity Brands or comparable alternatives from Cooper Industries or Leviton Manufacturing. All electrical work must comply with NFPA 70, FAA-C-1217G standards, and applicable OSHA regulations. The contractor must submit a site-specific Health and Safety Plan, HAZCOM Plan, and Schedule for Construction within specified timeframes. All contractor personnel require FAA Identification Media Badges following a security vetting process. The work must be completed within 30 calendar days after Notice to Proceed, excluding FAA holiday moratoriums, with contractors performing work during standard business hours (7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday) and coordinating all activities with the Contracting Officer Representative to minimize disruption to the continuously operating critical facility.

SECTION 013526 - SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
PART 1 - GENERAL
1.1 SCOPE
A. The objectives of the safety and health requirements are to eliminate contract generated facility shutdowns, interruptions, injuries, illness, and incidents. When the Contractor is notified by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) of non-compliance with the safety or health provisions of the Contract, the Contractor shall immediately, unless otherwise instructed to, correct the unsafe act or unsafe condition.
It is the Contractor’s responsibility to understand the work to be performed, perform the work in a professional manner and to protect his workforce and FAA from incidents.
B. This section identifies some of the requirements of the OSHA Construction Standard.
C. Formulation of a project specific safety plan.
1.2 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY
A. General Safety Provisions - The Contractor shall bear full responsibility to provide safe work conditions for its employees and Contractors. The Contractor shall not permit any employee or subcontractor to work in surroundings or under working conditions that are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to the health and safety of the employee.
B. Accident Prevention - The Contractor shall bear the responsibility of maintaining an accident prevention program such that frequent and regular inspections of the job site, materials and equipment are made by a competent person designated by the employer.
C. Use of Equipment - The Contractor shall not permit the use of any machinery, tool, material, or equipment that is not in compliance with OSHA regulations. The employer shall permit only those employees qualified by training and/or experience to operate equipment and machinery.
D. MSDS Sheets – Adhesives sealants and primers used produce odorous vapors, which are a tremendous concern with the Air Traffic Controllers. Submit applicable MSDS sheets for adhesives, paints, sealants, and other VOC producing materials and chemicals used.
E. Orientation and Training – All contractor employees must complete a site and task specific orientation and test provided by the Contractor prior to tasks in FAA facilities.
Daily Safety Meetings or Tool Box Meetings are to occur before each work shift and include all Contractor on-site employees.
F. Incident Investigation – All Contractor incidents will be communicated immediately to the FAA Resident Engineer and investigated by the Contractor. An incident report and Lesson Learned must be assembled for all incidents and transmitted to the FAA for review.
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS 013526-2
G. Auditing and Inspections – The contractor must conduct safety and health inspections by qualified and competent professionals at a frequency sufficient to identify and control task specific hazards. The FAA shall not be held responsible for safety inspections to assure Contractor conformance with the OSHA safety regulations. The FAA, however, reserves the right to notify the Contractor of any deficiencies regarding worker safety.
1.3 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY
A. All contractor tasks must be communicated to the FAA prior to the tasking being performed.
1. Preconstruction Safety Meeting – The FAA will schedule a preconstruction meeting before the Notice to Proceed. The agenda will include:
a) The FAA will identify the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR).
The Contractor will identify its site management.
b) The FAA will review the chain of authority.
c) The FAA will review the procedure to process field decisions and change orders.
d) The FAA will review the facility safety procedures, and safety and health requirements.
e) The FAA will discuss schedules, shop drawings, product data and samples, manufacturer’s certifications of products, manpower reports, equipment deliveries and priorities schedules, procedures for maintaining record documents, use of FAA facilities by the Contractor (access parking, office area, and storage), safety and first aid procedures, security procedures and housekeeping procedures.
2. Monthly Project Schedule: - Contractor shall provide a project schedule for the duration of the project.
3. Two Week Look-Ahead Schedule – Contractor shall provide a two week look-ahead schedule to the COR. The schedule shall provide specific location where work will take place, start/stop dates and the prime/sub-contractor performing the work. The activities in the schedule shall coordinate with the Activity Hazard Analysis requirement.
4. Daily Project Scope and Schedule – A detailed daily project scope and schedule must be submitted to the FAA daily. Usually the daily scope and schedule meeting is held early morning with the COR. Hot work permits, and electrical/pneumatic/water and steam lockouts are issued daily.
All safety related schedules should be coordinated with the overall work schedule required in the specifications.
5. Safety/Activity Hazard Analysis Meeting - Activity Hazard Analysis will be part of the weekly Construction meeting. In addition to the weekly construction meeting, the facility management requires a briefing to review the Project’s Activity Hazards one week before the work shall occur. This meeting typically takes 30 minutes or less and is held on Monday at 07:00 am unless a different time is agreed to by the
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS 013526-3
COR. Contractor’s superintendent and key subcontractors (as applicable) are expected to attend and explain work activity/safety protocols.
B. The FAA will evaluate the Contractor on its safety performance, including that of its Subcontractors. The number and severity of safety and security violations will be considered in this evaluation. Contractor safety violations are cause for termination for default, may result in notification of the Contractor’s bonding company, and will affect the Contractor’s opportunity to propose on future work. Failure to correct such deficiencies may impact the Contractor’s ability to work on future FAA contracts.
1.4 OSHA REGULATIONS
A. The Contractor shall comply with the latest Occupational Safety and Heath Administration regulations (CFR 29 Part 1926) regarding safety in the work area.
