PCFS

Project location

USDA-ARS Palouse Conservation Field Station, 4153 Albion Road, Pullman, WA. 99163

Scope of work

The contractor shall provide all professional services necessary to accomplish the contract project and such required services shall be in accordance with the requirements as described herein and on attached contract documents.

Background: The USDA-ARS Palouse Field Conservation Station is located at 4153 Albion

Road, Pullman, WA. 99163. The Quonset building has had one re-coating performed in the last

20 years and has many impacts and patches in its exterior. The result is the building’s corrugated metal shell is in fair condition and is needing re-coating and hole repairs. It was built over 58 years ago and has only been used for machinery storage and occasional research facility with the wind tunnel. It has doors that are left open the East side and the West doors are closed during the winter. There are electrical outlets installed but no water or interior rooms. The nearest water source is about 175 feet away. The building has no lights or climate control and there is a cement floor under the entire structure.

The contractors shall prepare the building for recoating by cleaning off the loose coating and patching the holes and seams that are visible and show signs of leaking after pressure washing. The contractor will be responsible for cleaning up the paint flakes removed by pressure washing and caulking the leaking seams and holes. Some screws will need too be replaced in the corrugated metal shell and will be supplied by the contractor.

The contractor will apply the re-coating product according to the manufacture’s specifications with the method of application that insures the best product life.

The USDA-ARS will permit the use of electricity and access to the water supply to clean and coat the building using pressure washers.

All equipment parked around the building shall be moved away to allow access to the sides, front and rear of the building.

Work shall be performed during normal business hours which run from 7:00am to 5:00pm

Monday through Friday. There will be time to get the building re-coated in the fall when snow and rain are not present.

The contractor shall have all permits and inspections requirements met to accomplish the work. Sanitary facilities on site are at the shop building located about 220 ft from the work site.

All Covid-19 safety requirements are to be followed as this site is on WSU property. Those requirements include masks and social distancing if applicable at the time of work.
