APPENDIX_1-Permits.pdf

This is a Permits Appendix for the South Cross Bayou Electrical Switchgear Replacement project, a capital improvement initiative by Pinellas County, Florida. The project involves the removal and replacement of electrical switchgear components at the South Cross Bayou Advanced Wastewater Reclamation Facility (AWRF), including two 3200-ampere drawout generator circuit breakers, four 1600-ampere drawout feeder circuit breakers, and associated control components within a 277/480-volt, three-phase, four-wire switchgear system rated at 6000 amperes on the main bus. The scope encompasses reconditioned and modified switchgear cells, replacement of back panels and doors in a free-standing floor-mounted generator/engine master control cabinet, and replacement of two switchboard line-ups (TPA and TPB) with utility and generator circuit breakers, group-mounted devices, and automatic failover systems. Proposals were due August 25, 2026, with Technical Specifications and Final Plans updated as of August 10, 2026, and Addendum #1 posted on the same date. All work must result in complete, fully tested, and operational systems.
