About this file

This is Addendum One to an Invitation to Bid (RFB-47-24) issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department for Facilities and Support Services, Division of Engineering and Contract Administration, for emergency HVAC services at the McCracken Regional Juvenile Detention Center under the Department of Juvenile Justice in McCracken County, Kentucky. The addendum, dated August 31, 2023, provides nine substantive modifications to the original bid specifications and contract documents. Key changes include: authorization for phased construction allowing demolition of the existing chiller and new piping installation prior to new chiller arrival with coordinated cooling outages requiring written owner approval; clarification that Bluegrass Kesco is the current chemical treatment contractor but is not required to be retained; addition of JCI to the manufacturers list for the air-cooled scroll chiller with final approval at shop drawing review; factory installation of heat trace on the chiller evaporator with omission of heat tracing on buffer tank, pumps, and piping; and specific modifications to the fill line system, expansion tank piping connections, and demolition procedures. The contractor must calculate system water volume to achieve 40% Propylene Glycol, assuming the existing chilled water coil holds 300 gallons.

The addendum establishes technical requirements for the chilled water system renovation, including mandatory use of new glycol and treatment chemicals with no reuse of existing glycol or equipment. A chemical treatment service report from June 20, 2023, documents that the chilled closed loop system currently operates with a rental trailer chiller and requires monitoring for future treatment needs due to piping and equipment changes. The project account number is listed as 523-CB1M-MK08-00, with Marcum Engineering serving as the design firm (Project No. 23580). Procurement is managed by Susan Ward, Statewide Procurement Analyst II.

Opening Comment Worked with David. Thank you, Sir.

Hot Closed Loop Online This system is currently well treated for active corrosion control and is stable.

System water is clear.

Chilled Closed Loop Online This system now has a rental chiller on a trailer. This has caused a loss of treated system water and a drop in chemical residual.

Sodium Nitrite Control Limits is 800-1500 ppm (not low end of 1000 ppm).

So, this system is still well treated for active corrosion control and is within control limits.

No treatment feed is needed now.

Piping and equipment changes in the near future will likely impact this system and require more KL 609S chemical feed. David will inform me.

Closing Comment Thank you.
