C. The Owner, hereinafter referred to as Owner: Alabama Air National Guard, 117th Air
Refueling Wing
1.02 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A. Project scope includes renovations and upgrades to the existing fuel cell, building 135, at the 117th Air Refueling Wing as required to provide compliance with new United Facilities Criteria Requirements. The proposed project includes the following:
1. Removal and replacement of the existing AFF fire Suppression system with a new
High Expansion Foam (HEF) system.
2. Minor reconfiguration of walls and doors to provide a dedicated fire protection equipment room and additional hangar bay egress exits.
3. Modifications to existing walls and ceiling systems to ensure continuity and integrity of required fire rated separations and provide new draft curtains.
4. New fire water service will be provided under a separate project. Government
Project #BRKR162323 will provide an expansion to building 137 and will include fire pumps to serve building 135 as well as the adjacent building 138. The fire pumps and new underground piping will be installed and completed as part of BRKR16232 prior to installation of new fire protection systems included in the scope of work of this project. Valves will be installed as part of BRKR162323 in the existing utility trench between buildings 135 and 138 such that the water supply from building 137 can be supplied to building 135 by opening a shutoff valve upon completion of the HEF systems installation without affecting water service to building 138.
