About this file

This Statement of Work (SOW) details a project to repair the HVAC system in Building 248 at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming. The comprehensive scope involves replacing 55 fan coil units (FCUs), 11 unit heaters (UH), and 6 cabinet unit heaters (CUH), along with associated piping, valves, actuators, controls, and accessories. The project requires upgrading the existing HVAC infrastructure to meet BACnet direct digital control specifications and integrating the new system with the base's energy monitoring and control system (EMCS).

Key technical requirements include installing shutoff isolation valves, replacing pneumatic controls with digital controls, adding control valves for heating water coils, and ensuring all new equipment matches existing unit capacities and performances. The project has special considerations due to the building's historical significance, being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Work must be coordinated with base managers, performed during specific site work hours (7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday-Friday), and completed within a 335-day performance period. The contractor must follow specific environmental, safety, and preservation standards, including obtaining necessary permits and approvals from the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office.

2. PROJECT SCOPE:

2.1 The contractor shall provide all labor; materials, equipment, transportation, and supervision necessary to repair/replace the HVAC for dorm building 248. The work includes but is not limited to the following items of work: Replace all fan coil units (FCU), unit heaters (UH), and cabinet unit heaters (CUH), and associated piping, valves, actuators, controls, accessories, filters, insulation, etc., as required for the connection and proper operation of the new units to provide a complete and usable HVAC system. Replacement of piping and insulation is limited to the terminal connection of the units.

Install shutoff isolation valves to the hot and chilled water supply and return branch piping to each FCU on the first and second floor. All shutoff valves shall be installed before replacing any FCU’s to minimize the number of times the building/system is drained. Shutoff valves to FCU’s in dorm rooms shall preferably be in the hallway with the drop ceiling tiles, before the pipe penetrates the into the dorm room, or other easily accessible agreed upon location. Shutoff isolation valves to be used with the replacement of the FCU’s later.

All FCU’s and CUH’s shall be Trane or approved equivalent. Replace all thermostats for all FCU’s. All equipment shall meet BACnet direct digital control specifications and tie into the energy monitoring and control system (EMCS) on base. In addition, the contractor shall replace all pneumatic controls, including but not limited to the air dampers and chilled water control valves, for the 3-air handling units (AHU) in the attic to digital controls that tie into the EMCS. Additionally, install 3-way control valves on the heating water coils for the AHU’s to match the chilled water control valves; controls should be digital and tie into the EMCS as well.

Ensure HVAC service to the parts of the building not being replaced that day be kept active and running as much as possible during replacement of units. Minimize down time as much as possible. Units once removed shall be replaced the same day to prevent heating/cooling issues. Flexibility will be allowed to shut down an individual unit for multiple days, up to 5 working days, with prior coordination with project manager and favorable weather conditions for adequate temperatures to the room. Coordinate with 90 CES project manager and Dorm manager prior to the start of project, taking any areas offline.

2.2 Environmental Requirements:

The use of any hazardous materials shall be submitted through a ‘Hazardous Materials Authorization Request’ form and approved by 90 CES/CEIE prior to use.

Follow Local, State, and Federal laws for the removal of any hazardous materials. In accordance with EPA, refer to Environmental Protection specification 01 57 19.05 32 for any hazardous materials reclamation or disposal.

pg. 3

Asbestos and Lead Paint: Refer to included hazardous material survey reports for detailed findings and analysis on record for building 248. Should any of the work require disturbance of any other building material not identified in the reports all applicable RPA, OSHA, State and Federal laws and regulations will be followed to analyze the material and remediate the issue.

If potentially hazardous materials such as asbestos are encountered, provide sampling and laboratory test results to Project Manager for approval. Samples should be taken by a properly trained and accredited asbestos professional (inspector). An advance 10-day Notification to WY DEQ/AQD will be required prior to any abatement work being accomplished. Any asbestos waste generated must be disposed of properly and be manifested through 90 CES/CEI at building 321.

Mold Remediation: Some surfaces may contain mold. When surfaces containing mold are present the effective way to clean mold is to use detergent solutions which physically remove mold. Use a commercially available detergent marketed for mold cleanup that include an EPA-approved antifungal agent.

2.3 Historical Cultural Resources Requirements:

Building 248 is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a National Historic Landmark.

Design and specifications for the work to be done on this building must meet the requirements of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Historic Preservation and must be approved by the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office (WY SHPO) and the federal Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP). All work to the exterior of the building and alternation to any historic elements of the building must be coordinated and approved through 90 CES and F.E. Warren’s Cultural Resources Manager before installation. Design documents shall be provided to the Cultural Resources Manager, to send to WY SHPO, to ensure that all stipulations are adhered to.

2.4 Safety Requirements:

The safety requirements will be the same throughout. Follow the Accident Prevention Plan (APP) and Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) the Contractor has created for the entirety of the project. All regulations pertaining to safety as noted in OSHA Standards, applicable AFOSH Standards, and base regulations shall be strictly adhered to by the contractor. Care shall be exercised in connection with the operation of vehicles and other equipment on the site. Ensure appropriate fall protection for all workers.

3. WORK SCHEDULE & PERFORMANCE PERIOD:

Site work hours shall be from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Workdays are Monday through Friday except federal holidays. Coordinate with the Project Manager and the Contracting Officer (90 CONS) on specific building hours, or if additional/off hours are required. Work start date shall be coordinated with user and 90 CONS. The performance of period (PoP) for this project will be 335 days.

In the case of the winter season, the Contractor will notify the Government their intent to stop operations due to weather. 90 CES will validate that the weather no longer allows work to be performed within the specifications. The project will be placed into suspension and the remaining number of PoP days will be documented. When the suspension is lifted, a new completion date will be established based on the remaining PoP days.

4. WORK AREA ACCESS:

pg. 4

Building is currently occupied; plan on access to 1-2 apartments at a time. All public spaces including hallways/laundry area and basement to be always accessible. Close coordination with project manager, and dorm facility managers will be required, and necessary, to avoid any project delays.
