INTRODUCTION

Purpose

The Program Year 2012 Gainesville Job Corps Center Facility Survey was conducted the week of December 3, 2013. The survey was conducted by a team of architects and engineers for the following purposes:

1. Documentation of existing conditions.

The physical features and conditions of the buildings and site are documented and verifi ed. Barrier-free access issues are included in this report.

The programmatic characteristics of the various Job Corps operational functions are documented and verifi ed as they relate to the center’s facilities. Program issues include: size of functional areas, operational layout, and functional amenities.

2. Identifi cation of defi ciencies.

The corresponding funding requirements for corrections to individual defi ciencies are identifi ed in an effort to bring the center to an optimal state of utilization and repair. Defi ciencies are categorized in three groups: program, site, and building.

3. Development of a plan of action.

A plan of action is developed based on center needs identifi ed through defi ciencies and discussions with national, center and regional personnel. The plan of action can take the form of a long range plan, development strategy or simple list of corrections depending on the situation. The intent of this plan is to provide actions which positively impact center operations and the overall living and learning environment.

Facilities deemed excess to the Job Corps program’s needs are identifi ed for disposition.

4. Collection of associated information.

Additional information is gathered related to energy and environmental issues. This information comes in the form of reports from the center (written or verbal) and is documented and coordinated with the energy and environmental management plans contained in this report. Typically, these energy and environmental management plans are based on previously performed audits.

Report Contents

The survey information is contained in two volumes. Volume I provides a summary of data collected/verifi ed during the facility survey, provides analysis of portions of that data, and presents a plan of action. Volume I also includes a proposed site plan and implementation plan to assist in the explanation of the plan of action. Current center information is provided in an existing site plan and a center statistics sheet. Volume II contains the detailed supporting data, which is summarized in Volume I and also provides documentation of related correspondence, which occurs throughout the Facility Planning Report process.

Gainesville Job Corps Center 4

Background

Gainesville Job Corps Center is located on 47 acres of land in Gainesville, Florida. The land and buildings are owned by DOL and operated by Del Jen, Inc. The center was activated for Job Corps utilization in 1978. The original facility was built around 1955 for industrial purposes by the Sperry Rand Corporation. Sperry Rand’s former use of the facilities has contaminated parts of the site with metal shavings and other contaminants.

The center has 190,650 gross square feet (GSF) in 12 buildings and 6,488 GSF in 10 structures. Gainesville Job Corps Center provides residential living, academic education, recreation, and vocational training for a population of 350 students, consisting of 120 resident women, 195 resident men, and 35 non-residents. The total building area at the center is 146,226 net square feet (NSF) (including 575 NSF of vacant space), as compared to the DOL suggested space guideline range of 94,000 NSF to 120,500 NSF for a center with this student population.

General Site Conditions

The center is located in the Eastern Time Zone at 29 degrees north latitude and 82 degrees west longitude. Its elevation is 150 feet above sea level, as Gainesville is a high point for the state. January temperatures in Gainesville range from an average low of 44 degrees Fahrenheit to an average high of 66 degrees Fahrenheit. July temperatures range from an average low of 70 degrees Fahrenheit to an average high of 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

Gainesville is considered to be part of the humid subtropical region, with annual precipitation of 48 inches.

The site is located in an industrial area just northeast of Gainesville. The site and locale around it are flat. Part of the site is wooded wetland that separates the center from the baseball field, a 1700’ walk (1/3 mile) to the east. Two storm water management detention ponds in the open space east of Main Building 1 are aerated by fountains to prevent stagnation. The wetland on site is 75’ above Newnan’s Lake, a large body of water east of the center.

The property is a long rectangle running east-west, with all of the center’s buildings located on the west side of the acreage. Admin./Ed./Rec./Dorm./Voc. Building 1 dominates the complex; all other buildings on site vary in type and size. The property is surrounded by industry and distribution warehousing to the north, east and west, and by woodland along the south border. The south border has a drainage ditch and overhead power lines running parallel to the property line. The Gainesville airport is located just south of the center.

The public entrance to the center is NE 40th terrace at the west side of the center (see Figure 1). Pedestrians utilize sidewalks from Main Building 1 to the Women’s Dorm and the

Figure 1 - Public Entrance to Gainesville Job Corps Center

Gainesville Job Corps Center5

Recreation Building. The buildings of the “night campus” are reached via paved areas that also function as paths for utility vehicles - generally golf carts. The campus roadway and parking lots are concrete and asphalt, sidewalks are concrete, and all are generally in good condition. Access to the walled and fenced employee parking area is from NE 54th place off the north boundary of the property. Access to the center receiving area is from the south boundary of the center at the NE 40th terrace. The site is flat and the underground storm water system drains adequately. Overall the site is larger than many centers of this population, but half is wetland. There is also a large open field (about 1.5 acres) in the northwest corner of the site due west of Building 2.

Domestic and fire protection water service is provided by the Gainesville Regional Utilities (GRU). The water supply system is adequate. GRU also receives and treats sewage discharged from the center, and the sewer piping system within the center is maintained by the center. There have been recurring sanitary line backups reported by the center in pipes serving the dormitory area in Building 1 and the kitchen in Building 2 due to severe corrosion and age. Fire protection is provided by fire hydrants. The center is supported by the City of Gainesville Fire Department station, approximately two miles from the center with a response time of approximately five minutes. The center is supplied with natural gas from GRU used for space heating, cooking, and domestic water heating. The natural gas pressure and flow to the center is adequate and the system is in good condition.

Electric service is also provided by GRU. The primary distribution system is from power lines along the center southern perimeter. Metered service is installed on a power pole between Building 27 and Building 31. The secondary distribution system is underground via pole, platform and pad-mounted, step-down transformers. Site lighting includes pole-mounted and building-mounted fixtures which are controlled by photocells and time clocks. Site lighting is adequate for the campus. Local telephone and long distance service is provided by AT&T and is adequate.

, when the General Building Conditions

The center contains twelve buildings, all on the western half of the site. The original core of Buildings 1 and 2 was built around 1955. Eight buildings were built between 1980 and 1995.

Three buildings were built between 2001 and 2008. No new buildings have been built since the last survey, and the principal work on Building 1 has been to refurbish the sprinkler system. The center’s buildings are structurally sound and in good condition except for Building 1, with its 100,000 SF flat roof visibly aged and subject to continuous repairs to the coal tar and gravel (see

Figure 2). Major roof drainage areas that lead to the internal roof drains are clearly defined by exposed black coal tar and open joint areas. Lacking gravel ballast and tar are a continuing source of potential leaks.

Figure 2 - Roof of Building 1

Gainesville Job Corps Center 6

Preventive Maintenance

Based on appearance and considering the age of building HVAC systems, the level of maintenance provided by the center is fair. There is no formal preventive maintenance plan although a generic, printed sample is available. The maintenance staff has “School Dude” a preventive maintenance software program, but does not use it effectively. Throughout the center HVAC air filters were clean. However, the air filters in the roof air-handlers were full of dust and debris in Building 1. Most maintenance at the center is handled by the center maintenance staff, but students and vocational staff also participate in routine cleaning and some maintenance tasks. Specialized repairs and regulated system tests are assigned to contractors and vendors.

Ownership

The Gainesville Job Corps Center is a federally owned center that was activated in 1978.

On October 2, 1978, the Government purchased a former warehouse and manufacturing plant from Sperry Rand Corporation for $1,000,000.00. The center currently has 12 buildings and 10 structures with approximately 197,138 gross square feet of building space.

The Department of Labor is responsible for the repair and maintenance at its federally owned campus.

Facility Assessment by Function

Student Housing

The center accommodates 120 resident women and 195 resident men in two single story buildings. The men’s dormitory is located in the east portion of Building 1, constructed in 1955.

Bedrooms vary in size and accommodate two to four students, and there are two large and one small common bathroom. Although stark and institutional, bedrooms function well, (see Figure 3) although toilet facilities are deteriorated. Women’s Dormitory Building 30 was constructed in 2001, and follows the prototypical DOL standard for new buildings.

Typical sleeping rooms in the female dormitory have four beds per room with bathrooms attached to each room. The building is in good condition and functions well.

Education

Building 1 is a large building housing the center’s major functions - administration, academic and vocational education, male dormitory, and auditorium, where some recreation occurs. Educational adjacencies work fairly well, but the interior circulation paths are complicated and disorienting. Interior wall and ceiling finishes have been

Figure 3 - Building 1 Dormitory Typical Bedroom

Gainesville Job Corps Center7 maintained by CTST, and varied paint colors and hallway treatments help differentiate certain areas. Carpets in the corridors are worn and conceal old vinyl asbestos tile, and ceramic floor tile and other substrates are deteriorating from too many layers of material applied over the years.

Non-academic functions are dispersed through Building 1 and co-located with academic, administration and housing functions. Counselors are located in Building 2 and testing and career orientation classrooms are located in Building 16. The buildings are well maintained and function satisfactorily. Work based learning (WBL) functions have been consolidated to the north end of Building 1. Spaces are adequate and function well.

The majority of academic functions are located in Building 1, grouped on the north-west side of the building. Classrooms are adequate in size and are well organized. SIA-Tech classrooms are located in Buildings 15, 29 and 39. These buildings are in good condition and function well.

Soft vocations are located in two buildings: nursing assistant (CNA), medical assistant, CNA is a bit distant from Health Occupations. Business office technology (BOT) is located in Building 1 and culinary arts is located in Building 2. A new solar program replaced the former tile vocation on the south end of Building 1. Vocational areas and classrooms are adequate and in good condition.

Hard vocations occupy two buildings. Carpentry, painting, and construction are grouped together in the south part of Building 1. The Solar trade now occupies the vacated tile trade. The Solar trade shares a break room with the painting trade. The adjacent toilets, which ideally would be for general student use, are used mostly by painting. Auto repair technician is located in the north part of Building 2. Aside from the toilets, the various locations and spaces are appropriate for learning and practicing.

Food Service

All food service functions are located in Building 2, which contains food preparation, serving, and dishwashing functions, as well as the Dining Room. The cafeteria entry connects to Building 1 via a covered walkway, and the queuing length is adequate. The configuration of the seating and capacity of the food preparation area are adequate for two servings. The adjacent culinary arts guest room is frequently used as an additional dining space. The facility is well maintained, in good condition and functions well.

Recreation

Figure 4 - Carpentry Vocation in Building 1.

Gainesville Job Corps Center 8

Indoor recreation functions are located in Building 1, Gymnasium Building 27 (built 1992), and Recreation Building 31 (built 2002). The auditorium is located in the center of Building 1 and is in fair condition (see Figure 5). The gym, toilet/showers and lockers are located in Building 27 which has some wear and tear on the exposed gym ceiling insulation, but is in good condition and functions satisfactorily. Building 31 was built in 2002 and houses a pool room, weight rooms, music, aerobic, arts and crafts and computer room. The building has adequate interior space, is in good condition and functions well.

Outdoor recreation facilities include a basketball court, located on the large paved space north of Building 27. The baseball field is remote from the campus and underused. The bleachers and dugout are somewhat deteriorated. Pavilion Structure 28 is a former auto shed converted to recreation, and is heavily used. Former Storage Shed 36 now has picnic tables and is used as another outdoor gathering area.

Administration

Administration functions are located in the west side of Building 1. This part of Building 1 functions well and is well maintained. Gate House Building 14 is located at the service entrance to the center and is in good condition.

Storage/Support

The warehouse is located at the south end of Building 1, adjacent to purchasing. The center maintenance functions are on the north side of the building. The center storage is located in Buildings 2, 11 and 21. These facilities are adequate and function well.

Medical/Dental

Medical/Dental functions are located in Building 2. The facilities are well maintained, adequate in size and in good condition.

Energy Issues

The Gainesville Job Corps Center, when compared to FY 2011, decreased energy usage by 22.9% in FY 2012. The energy usage in FY 2012 was 67,455 BTU/GSF/YR, and 87,510 in FY 2011. The center is commended for this reduction, and is encouraged to continue the good work.

Figure 5 - Building 1 Auditorium

Gainesville Job Corps Center9

Executive Order 13423 “Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management” became effective on 1/24/2007. This order requires a 3% per year reduction in energy intensity (BTU/GSF) relative to a 2003 baseline by all Federal agencies along with a 2% per year reduction in water consumption intensity (GAL/GSF) relative to a 2007 baseline. “New construction and major renovations of agency buildings must comply with the Guiding Principles for Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Buildings. One of the principles of this memorandum is that government agencies will optimize energy performance of new buildings. All proposed construction and renovation projects should be sent to the ESC for review to ensure that they comply with the new energy efficiency requirements. DOL is committed to achieving the goals of the Executive Order and the Memorandum and all Job Corps facilities are asked to fully participate to make this happen.

Consumption

The energy consumption baseline (FY 2003) is 119,181 BTU/GSF. The EO 13423 target is for a 21% reduction in FY 2012, which translates to 94,153 BTU/GSF. The center posted a consumption of 67,455 BTU/GSF in FY 2012, which represents a 43% decrease relative to the baseline. The figure below shows yearly energy consumption relative to baseline. The red line represents the reduction target, and the green line represents consumption.

The total energy cost from all sources in FY 2012 was $373,911 compared to $470,897 in the previous year, a 21% decrease.

In FY 2012, Gainesville JCC decreased electricity consumption by 20% compared to 2011.

Cooling degree days (CDDs) are a measure of how much cooling is needed. CDDs decreased by 4% between 2011 and 2012. Electric use for 2011 and 2012 is shown below.

Gainesville Job Corps Center 10

The average cost of electricity increased by 1% during the period to $33.98/MBTU in FY 2012, compared to $33.64/MBTU in FY 2011. Cooling degree days decreased by 13% in 2012 contributing to the decrease in electricity usage. The average cost of natural gas decreased to $9.45/MBTU from $9.71/MBTU, a 3% decrease.

Natural gas usage at the center decreased by 34% in 2012. Heating degree days decreased by 14% in FY 2012 contributing to the decrease in natural gas usage. Natural gas usage for current and previous years is shown below.

From FY 2007, the water consumption baseline is 75 GAL/GSF. The EO 13423 target is a 2% annual reduction in water usage. For FY 2012, the target is a 10% reduction relative to the baseline, or 69 GAL/GSF. The center posted an increase relative to the baseline in FY 2012, with a consumption of 92 GAL/GSF. Water consumption relative to FY 2007 is shown below. The red line represents the EO 13423 target, and the green line (consumption) must be below the red line in order for the target to be met.

Gainesville Job Corps Center11

Staff and students at Gainesville JCC should continue efforts to reduce energy and water consumption. They can use strategies such as the following:

Lack of preventive maintenance on HVAC equipment is a significant factor in energy efficiency. The center staff should institute effective scheduled maintenance programs for all HVAC equipment to improve efficiency.

Educating the Operations and Maintenance staff on the importance of saving energy. Changes in equipment operation, such as night setbacks, can greatly enhance the center’s overall savings. Recommended temperature settings should be consistently observed.

Repair or upgrade lighting systems. Replace incandescent lamps with compact fluorescent, and upgrade T12 fluorescent systems to T8 or T5. Promptly repair photocells on exterior lights to prevent the lights from operating during daylight hours.

Using the center’s staff and students to help save energy. Education will motivate staff and students to actively participate in conservation. Reminders about energy conservation should be posted throughout the center in the form of stickers and posters.

Maintain building exteriors. Repair or upgrade roof insulation, caulking and weather stripping, and door and window closing mechanisms. Maintain roofs and repair leaks promptly to prevent wet insulation.

Gainesville Job Corps Center 12

Promptly repair photocells on exterior lights to prevent the lights from operating during daylight hours.

Aggressively monitor plumbing fixtures for leaks and make immediate repairs.

Ensure that all plumbing fixtures are set up for minimum water consumption (e.g.

low-flow shower heads, low-flow flush valves, and low-flow faucet aerators).

Always make sure that windows and doors are closed in air conditioned buildings.

Open windows and doors are an obvious waste of energy and should never be tolerated.

Maintain reasonable set points for thermostats. Try 68°F in the heating season and 75°F to 77°F in the cooling season.

Environmental Issues

Sperry Rand’s former occupancy of the facilities contaminated parts of the site with metal shavings, Poly Aromatic Hydrocarbons, PCB’s Tetra Chloroethylene. An estimate oil spill of 5,000 gallons near the site has been investigated by the Florida EPA, who continues to assess this site and the surrounding area. There may be other contaminants, but only a small portion of DOL’s property has been tested. Meanwhile, permission to disturb on site or under buildings for any reason is governed by and subject to Florida EPA’s formal approval.

Sustainability

All new construction, renovations and additions (including those by CTST) and operations and maintenance practices must comply with Executive Order 13514, “Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance” and “Guiding Principles for Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Buildings” (as updated). These principles include integrated design, optimization of energy performance, protection and conservation of water, enhancement of indoor environmental quality, and reduction of environmental impact of materials. These are detailed in JCH-814 Section 1.8, “High Performance and Sustainable Building Design” and DOL “Sustainable Buildings Implementation Plan.” Job Corps will pursue cost-effective, innovative strategies (e.g., ground source heat pumps) to minimize consumption of energy, water, and materials.

Three options for center disposition are included in the “Recommendations” section of this report.

Accessibility Standards

Seven of the thirteen buildings on the center are reasonably compliant. Handicap showers have been recently incorporated into the two sick bays of the medical ward in Building 2.

Compliance will be incorporated as major renovation projects are developed and new

Gainesville Job Corps Center13 buildings are constructed. All future projects at the center will be in conformance with the GSA's Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Standard for Federal Facilities and will include provisions for full accessibility.

Significant Issues

Significant issues impacting operations and/or learning and living environment at the center identified during the December 2012 Facility Survey are as follows:

Issues that need to be addressed

The Building 1 roof is deteriorated and at the end of its useful life. Existing insulation is inadequate and energy inefficient.

The Building 1 corridor system is inefficient and disorienting.

Building 1 male toilets serving wings 4 and 5 have failing floor finishes and are prone to sanitary drain back-ups Access to mechanical, electrical and

Figure 1 - Attic Space of Building 1.

Gainesville Job Corps Center 16 sprinkler elements in the attic of Building 1 is inadequate. Lighting in the attic is also insufficient (see Figure 1).

The Building 1 auditorium interior finishes are deteriorated and the layout is not efficient.

Worn corridor carpets in Building 1 conceal failing tile/grout and vinyl asbestos tile beneath the surface. The floor surface is unstable, stained and deteriorated.

PY 12 Plan Overview

The National Office has indicated that they will be evaluating options for the future disposition of the Gainesville JCC including: maintaining the Center at the present location, relocation of the Center, or closing the Center.

Relocation or closure options would be considered due to the following difficulties at the present location:

Major Environmental Issues and Associated Liability

The site and surrounding properties of the Gainesville JCC have several identified areas of soil and groundwater contamination. The site was formerly used as a defense manufacturing facility by Sperry Rand (now part of Unisys) in the 1950s through the 1970s.

The contamination is the result of dumping chemicals and heavy metals directly onto the ground and through filter basins. Groundwater flow to the east has moved the contamination onto a major portion of the neighboring property owned by the City of Gainesville.

The settlement agreement between Unisys, the City of

Gainesville and DOL is to cleanup this contamination. This contamination prevents the use of groundwater for any purpose.

Soil contamination was identified directly behind and underneath the dormitory areas of Main Building 1. Twelve inches of soil has been put over the area of soil contamination as an interim measure. The contamination extends underneath the dormitories and the exterior areas between the dormitory’s wings. The Florida Department of the Environment (FDEP) is asking for some minor additional soil testing in this area. A remediation plan will be needed which will likely result in a more permanent cap with additional soil. A deed restriction preventing excavation without special procedures in areas of contamination will also be needed from FDEP.

An isolated and fenced wooded area between the Female Dormitory and the Main Building has soil contaminated with heavy metals. Metal shavings are sitting on the ground in this area. The heavy metals are localized in limited areas and depths of soil. The additional soil testing requested by the FDEP includes samples in this area and this area will be included in the remediation plan.

The property adjacent to the North of the Gainesville JCC has PCB soil contamination.

This contamination has not been identified to extend to the Job Corps property and cleanup responsibility is included in the litigation settlement with Unisys and the City of Gainesville.

Inability to maintain or repair the infrastructure

Interim measures to address Building 1 shortcomings have been limited due to the unresolved status of contaminant remediation. Repairs are limited to above grade and any need for even limited soil disturbance requires special permission. Building 1 is also in need of some significant repairs which to date have been cost prohibitive. Maintenance and repair is conducted on an as-needed basis and is of limited duration. The roof in particular is continually being repaired.

Inability to meet programmatic requirements due to above problems

The two largest buildings of the Center, Buildings 1 and 2, contain a mixture of uses.

Building 1 houses administration, education, recreation, housing, and vocation functions.

Building 2 contains food service, medical, dental and vocational functions. The outlying buildings conversely are much smaller with a singular use per building. Any internal shifting or re-allocation of functional groups is difficult due to this layout. Construction of any new buildings or additions to existing buildings is currently not possible due to the unresolved status of remediation of the site’s contaminants.

The proposed plan that follows addresses the first option of maintaining the Center at the present location only.

A primary objective of the plan is to extend the life of Building 1 by replacing the roof while addressing current DOL energy use objectives. A National Project would replace the building’s roof (see Figure 3), and reconfigure corridors and other spaces for improved internal circulation. The existing coal-tar roof would be stripped and replaced with a new roofing material more specifically designed for Florida heat.

Due to the unresolved state of issues over protracted assessment of soil conditions at the

Center, it is pragmatic to focus on improvements above grade. There is little need to disturb the soil anyway, other than to repair underground utilities or perhaps tie Building 1 bathroom repairs into existing sanitary lines that lie beyond the building envelope. In such a case, either pipe bursting or ejector pumps that would route waste water thru the attic would be employed. Permission for limited soil disturbance would be sought from FDEP.

Regional projects for Building 1 would upgrade and renovate the Male Dormitory Wing 4 & 5 toilets (see Figure 4), and provide improved access and additional lighting to the large attic space. Renovation work in dormitories would have to be phased so the dormitories could remain in operation. A Regional project would also retain an A/E firm to create a detailed interior design for refurbishing the Building 1 auditorium (Positive Normative Culture Hall). A Regional project would also remove existing

Building 1 corridor carpet, remove asbestos and damaged ceramic tile below, and install new carpet.
