Kīlauea Point National Wildlife Refuge

Lighthouse Lantern Weatherproofing and Isolation Design

STATEMENT OF WORK

Kīlauea Point, HI

July 26, 2022

1. GENERAL

Kīlauea Point National Wildlife Refuge is located on the northern-most point of the main Hawaiian

Islands on a portion of the former Kīlauea volcanic vent and includes spectacular views from atop a 180-foot ocean bluff.

The Refuge is the best place in the state to view seabirds rarely seen from land, like the red-footed booby (ʻā in Hawaiian), great frigate bird ('iwa), and Laysan albatross (mōlī). The world's rarest goose and Hawai'i's state bird, the Hawaiian goose (nēnē) is a frequent sight as well. Visitors also have a chance to view spinner dolphins (nai‘a), Hawaiian monk seals (‘Ilio holo i ka uaua), green sea turtles

(honu), and humpback whales (koholā, October - April) in the water below. Native Hawaiian coastal plants are also abundant.

The Refuge is also home to the Daniel K. Inouye Kīlauea Point Lighthouse, whose 2nd order bivalve

Fresnel lens lit the way for seafarers. The lighthouse is part of the Kīlauea Point Light Station, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The lighthouse played a key role in the first trans-Pacific flight from the West Coast to Hawai'i and has been part of Kaua'i's history since its completion in 1913.

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is in need of design services to provide inspection services, and to prepare a treatment plan for leaks at the lantern. The scope of work includes the preparation of a design to isolate the lens from vibration as well as specifications to address rust and ventilation concerns.

2. BACKGROUND

The lighthouse lantern was last restored in 2009. It sustained storm damage in 2018 and repairs will be addressed through special emergency funding. Respect for the historic character of the structure is paramount to any work to be performed at the lighthouse.

3. SCOPE:

The goal of this project is to provide the necessary consulting services to complete a comprehensive scope of work for the repair and restoration of the lighthouse lantern. The AE shall inspect the lantern of the lighthouse, prepare a diagnosis, and propose a treatment plan to address moisture leakage. The scope of work includes a design to isolate the lens from vibration and a scope of work for a thorough cleaning of the classical Fresnel lens. Furthermore, the scope shall include proposed solutions for rust-jacking and rust-staining in and near the lantern as well as a strategy for lantern ventilation improvements. The AE contractor shall prepare the documentation of the proposed action for the State

Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). After FWS review and signature, the AE contractor shall submit to

SHPO via HICRIS and assist with any clarifications required during the review process.
