17. Normal battery voltage indication.
18. Low coolant level alarm.
E. The remote console shall include one 125 Vdc, 0.5 A form C contact for providing engine-generator alarms and failures to the existing plant sequence of events recorder. Government forces will wire this alarm to existing government equipment from the Contractor furnished terminal box located in the control room.
F. The Contractor shall furnish and install two separate emergency shutdown, mushroom style, pushbuttons, one at the inside wall near the exit door on the annex, and another near the control console in the control room.
G. The Contracting Officer’s Representative will direct the contractor where to install this digital remote console in the powerplant control room.

Government forces will wire this alarm to existing government equipment from the Contractor furnished terminal box located in the control room.
2.013 LOAD BANK:
A. The Contractor shall furnish and install a 4-stage resistive load bank, mounted inside the engine-generator enclosure, and used to periodically load the engine-generator. The load bank shall be sized according to the engine manufacturer recommendations to periodically load up the diesel engine to prevent long term damage to the engine caused by insufficient loading of the engine during these exercise periods.
B. The load bank controls shall be mounted on or near the load bank. Indicating lights, mounted on the load bank control board, shall tell operators the load is being furnished by the load bank to the engine-generator for exercising.
2.014 NAMEPLATES:
A. The engine-generator set, main breaker and load bank shall have name plates showing the manufacturer's name, equipment type (such as model number or specification number), kW rating, kVA rating, elevation rating, voltage, frequency, serial number, date of manufacture, and other pertinent data.
B. All instruments, voltage regulator, time delay relays, governor and similar devices and parts shall have name plates or other appropriate markings to show the original manufacturer's name, type and serial number.

The automatic, Government furnished, controls for D1A shall be used to load shed and sequence back the plant loads so as to not overload the engine-generator with too much load at once.
F. The commissioning plan shall include a minimum 4-hour test with the powerplant load. Reclamation will adjust the equipment in the plant to provide as close to a 500-kW load as possible using existing plant loads.
G. The commissioning will require coordination with a separate contractor who may be installing the new station service switchgear during this construction period. Coordination will be performed by the COR.

9.08 If the Government uses time more than the above stated number of days for review of any submittal or re-submittal, additional time, not to exceed the excess time, will be added to the time allowed the Contractor for completion of any affected by such excess time, to the extent it is demonstrated that the excess time caused delay:
9.09 Provided, that if the review of two or more separate submittals or re-submittals is late and results in concurrent days of excess time, such days will be counted only once in computing an extension of the completion date.
9.010 Provided further, that if the Contractor fails to follow the submittal schedule for the submittals required for approval as specified in Table 1 (List of Submittals) in this paragraph and does not make approval submittals in the sequence and within the periods specified in Table 1 (List of Submittals), thus resulting in the Government receiving incomplete submittals, submittals not in necessary sequence, or submittals behind schedule, which precludes the Government from approving or considering for approval such submittals within the foregoing 21 day period, then the Contractor shall not be entitled to an extension of time allowed for delivery and installation of the materials or equipment.
9.011 The number of calendar days required for review of drawings or data submitted or resubmitted for approval will not include the date that the drawings or data are received by the Government and will extend through the date of return mailing to the Contractor.
9.012 Unless otherwise specified, one set of the submittals required for approval will be returned to the Contractor either approved, not approved, or conditionally approved, and also marked to indicate changes if required.
9.013 Submittals that are not approved or require changes or revisions shall be revised and resubmitted for approval within 15 days unless stated otherwise and shall show changes and revisions with revision dates.
9.014 All requirements specified for the original submittal shall apply to any re-submittals required.
9.015 The Contractor shall submit the submittals to the applicable addresses listed below as required by Table 1 (List of Submittals).
9.016 The Contractor shall also send a copy of the transmittal letter to each of the addresses below that are not sent the submittal.
