1.0 INTRODUCTION

Chickasaw National Recreation Area (CHIC), located near Sulphur, Oklahoma in Murray County, lies in the foothills of the Arbuckle Mountains. CHIC is situated between the Lake of the Arbuckles and the Platt Historic District and encompasses approximately 10,000 acres. The park is composed of lakes and partially forested rolling hills, and is named to honor the Chickasaw Indian Nation, who were relocated to this area from the Southeastern United States during the 1830s. Numerous recreation and educational opportunities exist throughout the park. The 2024 Sulphur tornado damaged several areas of the park, requiring various rehabilitation efforts throughout the park.

This document is the Program of Requirements (POR) to construct a new water treatment plant and maintenance building within CHIC. It is intended to be a comprehensive requirements package that clearly communicates the required work necessary to complete the construction of the Chickasaw National Recreation Area Water Treatment Plant and Maintenance Area. This POR provides information about the various items relevant to both the water treatment plant (Project Element 1) and the new maintenance building (Project Element 2), including information related to permitting and compliance

Figure 1: Program of Requirements Project Elements within Chickasaw National Recreation Area

CHIC 240631 Replace Critical Utility Systems – WTR and Maintenance POR January 2025

Chickasaw National Recreation Area - 10 -requirements. This POR document supersedes and takes precedence over all Division One specifications (Appendix R). Environmental and cultural considerations for the improvements are reviewed and assessed to establish likely compliance and permitting needs, based on a general understanding of the project implementation to identify changes that trigger additional compliance and permitting needs.

Compliance is required in accordance with federals programs, such as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (NHPA), and the Archaeological Resource Protection Act of 1979 (ARPA).

2.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2.1 WATER TREATMENT FACILITY

The existing water treatment plant (WTP) is north of the Buckhorn campground and services that campground, boat ramp, and pavilion. The WTP also serves the Point boat ramp and campground via a pipe crossing underneath the lake. The WTP was constructed in the 1970s and cannot reliably provide treated water to the area served. Several maintenance issues are noted, including difficulty repairing or replacing aging appurtenances, and the need for manual operation due to non-functional automatic controls which were damaged by lightning and water leaks.

The plant was originally designed to produce 25,000 gallons per day (gpd) of potable water. The new design capacity will be 43,000 gallons per day. The existing system contains aged components which have become increasingly difficult to repair or replace as modern components are no longer compatible with the existing system. The automatic operational controls have failed or are failing, leading to higher operational costs because the water operator is required to remain on-site while the plant cycles through its operations. Water from the county is purchased at various times to supplement the volume needed for the campground, increasing overall utility costs. Municipal water is undesirable because it conflicts with the original mission of the land donation establishing a public park. Replacing the plant will greatly reduce the costs associated with manual operation, loss of water during certain processes, and purchases of water from outside sources when the plant is not able to meet water demands. A new WTP helps the Park address significantly deferred maintenance and provides new facilities with low life cycle costs.

Construction of the new plant will be phased to maintain operational use during construction, minimize impacts of park operations, and maintain functionality during peak visitor seasons, with the existing facility remaining operational during the process. A 30-foot buffer zone around the water tanks and building is established for fire protection. Special care should be taken to minimize the visibility of the water tanks from other park locations by utilizing paint color and preserving trees.

2.2 MAINTENANCE FACILITY

Located off Highway 177, the park’s maintenance area lies within the boundary of a National Historic Landmark (NHL) district and is subject to Section 106 compliance. A new maintenance building is proposed to replace the carpentry shop and storage buildings and will house a fire cache along with janitorial storage. The new 3,490 square-foot facility connects the recently rebuilt Roads and Trails building via a common area with restrooms and showers, ensuring accessibility with stairs and a lift. The design prioritizes emergency response, supply distribution, staff comfort, deferred maintenance and low life cycle costs for new facilities. Fire truck bays are positioned for easy access, and the central area is

CHIC 240631 Replace Critical Utility Systems – WTR and Maintenance POR January 2025

Chickasaw National Recreation Area - 12 -designated for maintenance supplies. The building will be constructed of durable materials for longevity and ease of maintenance.

The 2024 EF-3 Sulphur tornado damaged structures and vegetation within the existing maintenance area. All damaged structures and trees shall be removed and/or restored by others prior to the start of construction of the new maintenance building. After the tornado, flooding was identified in the center of the existing lower maintenance area, and the proposed building is located on higher ground than the area that experienced flooding. Furthermore, the maintenance area is critical for day-to-day park functions, and the design-build entity (DBE) should aim to minimize operational disruptions throughout construction.

3.0 PROJECT ANALYSIS

3.1 REPLACE WATER TREATMENT PLANT

3.1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This project replaces the existing water treatment plant (WTP), constructed in the 1970s. The existing WTP cannot reliably provide treated water to the served area. Several maintenance issues are noted, including difficulty repairing or replacing aging appurtenances, non-functional automatic controls and water leaks. The water treatment plant is located north of the Buckhorn campground and services the campground, boat ramp, and pavilion as well as the Point boat ramp and campground via a pipe crossing underneath the lake.

The existing plant is designed to produce 25,000 gallons per day (gpd) of potable water. The new plant’s design capacity is 43,000 gallons per day (gpd). Water from Murray County is purchased at various times to supplement water needs in the campgrounds, which has increased overall utility costs. Replacing the plant greatly reduces the costs associated with manual operation, loss of water during certain processes, and purchases of water from outside sources when the facility is not able to meet water demands.

The existing water treatment plant equipment and building are to be removed once the new water treatment facility is operational. One existing welded steel water tank is removed and replaced with a new bolted steel water storage tank on-site. Tree removal and minor grading are required at the new building site.

3.1.2 ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED

Three alternative water treatment methods for the new WTP were presented and discussed with NPS and the project team. These alternatives are:

Alternative #1: Ultrafiltration (UF) and Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) Filters:

UF membrane filters fur turbidity, bacteria, and most viruses GAC filters to be included as an option or could be added as needed in the future for mitigation and formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) Disinfection treatment by dosing liquid sodium hypochlorite and contact-time provided in the exterior on-site water storage tanks Remove/replace existing 30,000-gallon welded steel storage tank with a new 30,000-gallon bolted steel water storage tank at the site Provide new building for water treatment equipment

Alternative #2: Direct Rapid Sand Filtration (RSF):

Direct RSF eliminates the flocculation/sedimentation tank(s) included in a more conventional RSF treatment system

Chickasaw National Recreation Area - 14 -

Polymer coagulant is dosed, and a static mixer used for mixing prior to water entering the rapid sand filter

Dual media filtration was recommended using silica sand and anthracite GAC to be included as an option or could be added as needed in the future either directly in the RSF or in a separate filter Disinfection treatment by dosing liquid sodium hypochlorite and contact-time provided in a 10,000-gallon clear well storage tank in the treatment building Remove/replace existing 30,000-gallon welded steel storage tank with a new 30,000-gallon bolted steel water storage tank at the site Provide new building for water treatment equipment

Alternative #3: Conventional RSF:

Largely the same as Alternative #2 but includes a flocculation/sedimentation basin prior to the sand filters and matches the existing water treatment process

Includes some process efficiency improvements to the existing treatment plant including tube settlers to increase efficiency in the sedimentation basin

GAC to be included as an option or could be added as needed in the future either directly in the RSF or in a separate filter

Disinfection treatment by dosing liquid sodium hypochlorite and contact-time provided in a 10,000-gallon clear well storage tank in the treatment building

Remove/replace existing 30,000-gallon welded steel storage tank with a new 30,000-gallon bolted steel water storage tank at the site

Provide new building for water treatment equipment

In addition to the water treatment process alternatives discussed above, options for handling wastewater created by the treatment process were also presented and discussed. Options included evaporative lagoons, discharging lagoons, drying beds, and internal recycling of backwash/reject water wastewater. Discussion also included constructing a lift station to connect to the existing force main between the existing Lift Station #3 and Lift Station #6 in the Park’s wastewater collection system.

Based on discussions, Alternative #1 is the preferred option, along with the use of a connection to the sanitary sewer collection system for wastewater. Further details on the alternatives are found in Appendices K, L, M, N and O.

3.2 NEW MAINTENANCE BUILDING

This project also includes a new maintenance building to replace the carpentry shop and storage buildings. The new maintenance building is anticipated to be a 3,490 square feet high-bay steel frame metal building with a high strength concrete slab floor. Limited windows are anticipated to provide natural daylighting, while avoiding excessive heat buildup from sunlight. Roll up doors are sized for

4.0 PROGRAM ANALYSIS

The specific information included for each Project Element represents the minimum program analysis requirements. While conceptual layouts are included for guidance, the NPS is seeking innovative design solutions. The Desing-Build Entity (DBE) shall design to optimize the required improvements. The DBE shall complete an evaluation of the design criteria during detailed programming within the DBE’s contract.

4.1 PROJECT ELEMENT 1 – WATER TREATMENT

4.1.1 OVERVIEW

This POR describes the essential needs for a new water treatment facility to meet the current and future needs of Chickasaw National Recreation Area. A new building shall be constructed along the existing access road, as shown in Appendix M. The existing building and equipment shall be retained until the new WTP is operational. The new WTP shall meet or exceed all EPA primary and secondary drinking water standards.

Figure 2: Water Treatment Plant Location

Chickasaw National Recreation Area - 29 -

The existing water treatment plant is designed using a conventional rapid sand filter treatment process including flocculation/sedimentation basin, dual media rapid sand filter, and clear well storage within the existing treatment building. The existing treatment plant was constructed in the 1970s and cannot reliably provide treated water to the area served. Several maintenance issues are noted, including difficulty in repairing or replacing aging equipment/appurtenances, non-functional automatic controls damaged by lightning which currently require manual operation, and numerous water leaks. There are two existing 30,000-gallon at-grade steel water storage tanks at the treatment plant site. The existing welded steel tank adjacent to the treatment building is older and has shown issues with corrosion and foundation. The existing bolted steel tank on the north side of the road is newer and no maintenance issues are noted.

The project team evaluated multiple approaches to achieve the park’s water quality objectives, including a treatment method similar to the existing system, a rapid sand filtration method, and the UF filtration method. Following a comprehensive analysis, NPS selected the UF Filtration method as the optimal solution for meeting water quality standards, citing its operational and maintenance efficiency and its compatibility with the park’s designated water treatment infrastructure and location.

4.1.2 SCHEDULE CONSTRAINTS

The primary challenge in constructing the new water treatment facility is ensuring uninterrupted supply of water during peak visitation season throughout the construction process. To minimize downtime between the existing and new systems, demolition and construction activities shall be strategically divided into clearly defined phases.

4.1.3 SITE PLANNING

A new treatment facility with additional storage is planned to replace the existing facility used for the park’s water treatment operations. The proposed facility will be strategically positioned to avoid impacting the existing 24-inch specimen tree located east of the building site, as identified in the site study in Appendix M. The 30-foot fire protection zone has been delineated to ensure it does not interfere with this specimen tree. Additionally, the existing water tank to the west of the road is to remain in place and will be repainted to harmonize with the surrounding vegetation. No trees or vegetation west of the existing water tank are to be removed during construction activity. The site layout must facilitate vehicular movement throughout construction and future park operations. The site exhibit has been developed with NPS to limit disturbance and achieve design criteria for phasing and demolition described in this section.

PHASING AND DEMOLITION

Design criteria for demolition and phasing include:

Minimize site disturbance and work within the current cleared area to the greatest extent possible.

Some expansion of the gravel roadway and maintenance access areas may be required to facilitate vehicular movement as shown on site exhibit, Appendix M.

Provide 30’ buffer around the water tanks and the proposed building for fire protection. All vegetation within this buffer is to be removed, including several trees, which are listed on the Site Exhibit, Appendix M. Several trees to be removed are cedars (Juniperus virginiana) which are classified as an invasive species in the state of Oklahoma. A healthy 24-inch oak tree (Quercus spp.)

located to the east of to be removed water tank requires special consideration in establishing the 30’ fire protection zone. The fire protection zone shall extend immediately west of this specimen tree, and additional protection measures should be implemented to safeguard it during construction activities.
