Project Description:

Project Conditions (see samples below, tailor/add/delete per project - work with PM/PS, note any logistical/cultural/historic considerations here):

The project is located at Yosemite National Park, California.

The construction magnitude is >$10M- mandatory.

Note any unique material delivery requirements.

The Park will remain open during construction, thus contract activities and logistics must be structured and scheduled to minimize visitor impact.

The site requires protective measures to ensure the surrounding area remains undisturbed.

The anticipated period of performance of 675 calendar days including any potential weather shutdown.

There are seasonal/other shutdowns mandated through the construction season.

Winter construction may be required.

Project Scope:

The Tuolumne Meadows campground is approximately 140 acres, built between 1931-34 by the CCC to meet growing recreational needs. The site is located south of Tioga Road, adjacent to the Tuolumne River on the east side of the park. The campground is operated seasonally between May and October. The campground sits at an elevation of 8,600 feet and is covered with 8-10 feet of snow in the off season. Therefore, the construction season is limited to 5-6 months per year. It is anticipated that it will take two construction seasons to complete the work.

This project will rehabilitate the campground which includes 304 drive-in campsites, horse camp, backpacker’s camp and a group camp. The project will rehabilitate campground roads, make accessibility improvements throughout the entire campground, and enhance the amenities at each campsite including a hardened parking pad, new picnic tables, fire rings, and food storage containers for bear protection.

A stream side road (Loop A) will be removed along with 20+ campsites. The existing road will be demo’ed and repurposed as a trail. A new loop road will be added to accommodate relocated campsites as a result of the loss of Loop A. Riprap will be removed along a portion of the river’s edge and a natural condition restored.

The Dana Campfire Circle will be upgraded with an accessible route (trail type construction) and accessible seating/companion seating.

The campground has eight restrooms. The existing historic restrooms will be upgraded to meet ABAAS. In doing so, the fixtures will be updated. A few of them will require roof repair and structural enhancement to meet snowloads. Two additional restrooms will be added where there are gaps in service. The new restrooms will be small, durable structures that integrate with campground’s historic character.

The entire water system in the campground will be replaced, with the intention to optimize efficiency and create a looped system. In addition, work includes new water service to the existing restrooms and the two new restrooms.

The portions of the sanitary sewer system that were not replaced as part of the 1995 sewer improvement project will be replaced in this project. Electrical upgrades are needed at the check-in kiosk..
