INTRODUCTION:

Historical Context: Fort Sumter is an island fortification located in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina.

Originally constructed in 1829 as a coastal garrison, Fort Sumter is most famous for being the site of the first shots of the Civil War (1861-65). U.S. Major Robert Anderson occupied the unfinished fort in December 1860 following South Carolina’s secession from the Union, initiating a standoff with the state’s militia forces. When President Abraham Lincoln announced plans to resupply the fort, Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard bombarded Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. After a 34-hour exchange of artillery fire, Anderson and 86 soldiers surrendered the fort on April 13. Confederate troops then occupied Fort Sumter for nearly four years, resisting several bombardments by Union forces before abandoning the garrison prior to William T. Sherman’s capture of Charleston in February 1865. After the Civil War, Fort Sumter was restored by the U.S.

military and manned during the Spanish-American War (1898), World War I (1914-18) and World War II (1939-45). It became a unit of the National Park System in 1948.

This location is open to the public 363 days per year and hosts 350,000 visitors per year. All structures and grounds surrounding and within Ft Sumter are Historic. Please see references and links to the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) below.

OBJECTIVE:

This project will restore wheelchair access to the upper levels at Ft Sumter by installing 3 vertical platform lifts in the same locations as the previously removed units. Each lift will have 2 landings. Installation of these lifts satisfies legislatively mandated requirements of the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) to provide access to mobility impaired visitors of Federal Facilities. Installation must be in compliance with all applicable codes and must pass a South Carolina elevator inspection prior to government acceptance.

Approximate lift heights are 38 inches, 10 feet, and 12 feet. The previous lifts have been removed and do not require demolition.

The Contractor shall provide all management, labor, safety, tools, supplies, materials, equipment, personal protective equipment and transportation to perform the removal of existing chairlift and all unnecessary associated subsystems and furnish and install a new exterior vertical wheelchair lifts on Battery Huger, within Ft Sumter in the Charleston Harbor, Charleston, South Carolina. The Contractor shall be responsible for all facets of the removal and replacement, unless otherwise noted, in accordance with (IAW) all applicable Federal, State and local laws and regulations, manufacturer specifications, and American National Standards Institute (ANSI), American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) standards, and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA). The Contractor shall be responsible for off-site refuse disposal. The Contractor shall be responsible for work area cleanup, which shall result in a neat and professional appearance. The Contractor shall be required to coordinate with the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) for site access to accomplish this work. Upon completion of these work objectives, the Contractor shall have provided three new fully functioning wheelchair lifts at Battery Huger. The Contractor shall perform the following services:
