JUSTIFICATION STATEMENT

The Texas Department of Public Safety (TXDPS) has established a long-term goal to establish a modernized facility for training sworn personnel within TXDPS as well as officers of federal, state, and local law enforcement partners. To this end, TXDPS proposes moving all Training Operations Division (TOD) activities to Williamson County and significantly enhancing the Williamson County facilities.

The current training academy facility located on the Headquarters complex in Austin received its last substantive addition in the 1960s. These facilities are beyond their useful life and restrict training for recruits, incumbents, and agency partners. Repairs to infrastructure such as plumbing, HVAC, fire suppression, and more are required regularly due to the age of the facilities. Additionally, maintenance needs notwithstanding, this location is landlocked and cannot be expanded to provide more space to accommodate for an increase in personnel, or the growth in TOD programs.

Time and efficiency are lost to transportation between Headquarters and the Williamson County facilities.

The Williamson County facilities are currently equipped with an administration building and five classrooms, as well as office space for full-time staff. In 2004, firearms training was moved to the Williamson County facilities, followed by Emergency Vehicle Operations (EVOC) Training in 2009. As recruits are housed in the 1960's era Headquarters dormitory, they must be transported to and from the Williamson County facilities approximately one hour each way. This is also required during other training such as Field Force Operations, External Response to Active Shooter Events, Patrol Procedures, and more. Each recruit school spends at least thirty-five training days at the Williamson County facility. This amounts to no less than seventy hours lost to transportation. Almost two full weeks of training time could be recovered by moving recruit lodging, food services, and all other TOD activities to the Williamson County facility.

Due to limited classrooms and facilities at Headquarters, incumbents are often required to attend other training at the Tactical Training Center in lieu of the Headquarters facility where the dorms are located. The closest commercial lodging to the Williamson County facility is located approximately fifteen miles away in Georgetown.

The next step for increasing and expanding the educational effectiveness of the TOD Program is to consolidate lodging and training at the Williamson County site. Such a commitment requires a capital improvement program to create the Williamson County Academy, including:

• Classrooms, Conference Rooms, and 500-seat Auditorium with total integration of audio-visual systems for instruction and presentation

• Library

• Cafeteria

• Indoor and outdoor athletic facilities

• Pool for dive team training

• Recruit dormitories

• In-service dormitories

• Mitigation of "fire-fan" from existing Firing Range

• Firing Range Modifications

• Office and administration buildings

• K9 Facilities

• Central cooling and heating plant, energy conservation components, and all site utilities and improvements to support the building program

• New roads, loading zones, parking, and drainage features for environmental controls.

SITE DESCRIPTION

1. The DPS Williamson County site is located at 820 County Road 240, approximately 1 mile east of the intersection of U.S. Highway 195 and CR 240, approximately 4 miles south of Williamson County, Texas, in Williamson County. The 1,009-acre site consists of varied terrain - sloped, level, open, wooded, and includes several small, shallow stock-tanks from previous agricultural use.

Rock outcroppings and karst features are common, and the site lies partially within the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Terrain generally slopes downward from a hilltop along the southern half of the site toward the northern boundary partially defined by South Salado Creek. Cropland and other rural residential land uses surround the site. DPS facilities built at the Williamson County site during the 1990s include a multi-point firing range, buildings for storage and administration, water well system #1, the Emergency Vehicle Operations Course (EVOC), a vehicle maintenance facility, and a 30,000-square-foot Training Center and Administration Building with water well system #2, completed in May 2014.

2. New detailed space requirements are identified as "Space Needs Assessment Documentation", provided in the Appendix of this report.

SPACE NEEDS ASSESSMENT

PHASE 1

1. Academy Campus Plan. The academy will be located in the Southeastern corner of the site straddling a favorable elevation contour as shown in the exhibits. The buildings will be spaced out and in general 1 story with few taller buildings. The main exposure of the buildings will be more aesthetic with masonry veneer, but the general style of the site will be economical, military barracks style.

2. Fire Fan Mitigation. Overhead baffle structures illustrated in the exhibits are generally acceptable to DPS as a solution to the need for fire fan mitigation. DPS has made a special point to emphasize that supporting columns for the overhead baffles should be oriented 45 degrees from the firing line, so that bullet ricochet will always occur roughly perpendicular to the firing line, and not back toward law enforcement staff.

3. Firing Range Modifications. This Project Analysis also includes a comprehensive Tactical Training Center Firing Range Renovation. Its purpose is to correct concerns and issues facing the firing range in its present conditions, with the intent to establish a range that meets the needs of the 21'1-Century TXDPS Officer today and years into the future. In addition, it will address training for officers of the department and the State of Texas in meeting the challenges of combating workplace and school shooting incidents, as well as combating narco-terrorists and criminals from within U.S. borders and from trans-national organizations. Toward this goal DPS proposes the addition of the following features to the existing firing ranges: bullet-traps, mobile targeting systems and parking incorporated into the urban network of the EVOC (Emergency Vehicle Operations Course).

4. Bullet traps: To avoid delay in the safe use of the ranges for firearms training, it is proposed that each of the following ranges be outfitted with stand-alone bullet traps constructed in front of each backstop: Tactical, 60 Point, Multi-Purpose, and Rifle. This will provide a double layer of protection behind each range and allow for the capture of lead and brass for easy collection with no accumulation within the berms. In addition, these bullet traps will decrease the ricochet potential and round escape beyond the range area.

5. Mobile targeting system: In conjunction with the proposed bullet traps, a moving targeting system can be designed to accommodate target movement left, right, and turning, and can be specific to each range. Mobile targeting systems can be ground-mounted, or overhead-supported. An enhanced targeting system will allow for more effective weapons training especially from a tactical training perspective.

6. Dorms for Recruits. Dorm rooms for 400 trainees, including counselor and isolation rooms.

7. Full Kitchen and Cafeteria. Capacity to cook for 600 people and seat 150 people at a time for four (4) dining phases per meal.

8. Classroom Building. Final design is required to confirm the exact layout of classrooms within the building.

9. Indoor Physical Fitness. DPS specifically requests a gymnasium with no basketball court striping or goals, but indoor space equal in size to a basketball court, for multiple fitness cross training exercises. This includes a fitness cardio workout area as well as a weight room.

10. Outdoor Physical Fitness Phase 1. Gymnasium should be close to outdoor athletic field, with storage for field equipment. Outdoor athletics will consist of ONLY 1 football field, with 5-yard striping, but without goal posts. DPS prefers synthetic turf on rubberized mat. 1/4-mile track around the field. Cardio course, 3-mile loop containing 30% grade at various locations, utilizing the existing topography.

January I 8, 2023

11. Administration Office Building, Auditorium, and Library.

12. Site Utilities to Support Phase 1.

13. Potable Water. Well No. 1 is the only viable well and serves the existing firing range. There is also a pipe running across the site South of the EVOC course to service the training center near the main entrance. Well No. 2 is inactive due to an oil contamination issue. A groundwater consultant and testing would be required to provide recommendations, but for the purpose of this project analysis, this well is not considered a viable source of water. There may be a water pipe available from the City of Georgetown in the future, but it may not be available in time for this project.

Therefore, a new well, pump station, storage tank, chemical treatment facility, and water main is required in phase 1. An elevated storage tank (EST) is assumed to provide adequate pressure for fire suppression, but a hydro-pneumatic tank is another solution if future water from Georgetown is at lower pressure and because the amount of water is relatively low for an EST. Further geologic assessments and water consumption studies are required to confirm that annual usage does not deplete the aquifer. All facilities existing and new will be served by the new water distribution system, and the old well no. 1 and 2 piping will be abandoned.

14. Sanitary Sewer. The current facilities on site use on-site sewage facilities (OSSFs) such as septic tanks or leach fields. The size of the academy necessitates a small wastewater treatment plant located South of the firing range with effluent discharge to the creek. This location is at a lower elevation to facilitate gravity drainage from the training center and the academy, All OSSFs are to be removed and existing buildings are to tie into the sanitary sewer. Lift Stations will be added as needed to support buildings that cannot gravity drain.

15. Central Plant. The central plant shall be scalable and add equipment and building footprint to support load required at each phase. The equipment will include water-cooled centrifugal chillers, cooling towers, pumps, and piping system to the academy buildings. Chilled water will not be piped to buildings far from the academy, and heating will be electric heat local to each building since gas is not available.

16. AT&T Communication Link. A new 3-mile telecommunications line is needed to bridge an off-site gap between AT&T and Centurylink Communications between Killeen and Williamson County.

17. Electrical Power System. Substation and pole-mounted electrical power poles from the main entrance to the academy. Additional poles and transformers as needed per phase.

18. Site Infrastructure to Support Phase 1. Clearing, site prep, and paving. Well-planned road access between the Training Center and Academy is essential to handle heavy traffic from staff, visitors, and deliveries. A new road will likely require an existing earthen berm and enclosure fence be modified near the west end of the EVOC track (Emergency Vehicle Operations Course). The road will also connect the academy to the firing range.

PHASE 2

1. Dorms for In Service Personnel. These dorms are for active-duty officers coming to the training center to receive annual training. This includes male and female dorm rooms.

2. Outdoor Physical Fitness Phase 2. Multi-station obstacle course similar to Fort Hood courses and roughly the size of the football field will be provided with an enclosed pavilion located adjacent to the fitness areas.

3. Site Utilities to Support Phase 2. Branch piping is required for potable water, sanitary sewer, and chilled water, central plant expansion, along with power poles and transformers, and substation expansion.

4. Site Infrastructure to Support Phase 2. Clearing, site prep, and paving will be required.

5. Parking garage/s. Parking for approximately 600 vehicles will be required for this development.

DPS has expressed a preference for structured parking over surface parking, for "sprawl control", for hail protection and shade, and convenient proximity of parking to campus buildings. Structured parking also provides a convenient platform for photo-voltaic panel arrays, with easy maintenance access for a large number of panels.

PHASE 3

1. Site Utilities to Support Phase 3. Branch piping is required for potable water, sanitary sewer, and chilled water, central plant expansion, along with power poles and transformers, and substation expansion.

2. Site Infrastructure to Support Phase 3. Clearing, site prep, and paving will be required.

3. Outdoor Aquatics. This Olympic-sized pool will only be used by the DPS Dive Team for escape and rescue training for persons trapped in submerged vehicles. (Currently DPS trains at the NASA tanks used to simulate near-zero-gravity conditions for astronaut training).

4. K9 Facility. The existing fenced in field and outdoor kennels must likely be relocated to fit the academy campus plan. In addition to these existing features, a new kennel, veterinary care/admin facility and classroom is required.

5. UAS Drone Pad. The existing caliche pad will remain, and the new site layout shows how it will fit within the campus academy plan.

6. SWAT Office: 5 offices, small conference room, storage areas for ammunition, storage for equipment, vehicle storage (8 vehicles) will be required.

7. Kitchen at the Existing Training Center: The current training center building has food warmers and prep to facilitate catering, but they do not have a kitchen or dining area. This building addition will provide cooking and dining capability for 125 recruits.

8. EVOC Office/Classroom: Building near the existing EVOC pavilion that includes the trooper cave, offices, and classroom will be required.

9. Firing Range Offices: Permanent office building that replaces the existing 2 portable buildings at the firing range will be required. The existing pavilion/building adjacent to the 2 portable buildings will also receive an interior finish out to expand the vault to house the "armory".

10. Multi-Purpose Facility/Warehouse Building. A new 7,000 SF multi-purpose facility will be located in proximity to the new Academy site.

ENERGY CONSERVATION

Texas Government Code, Chapter 2166, Section 2166.153.(a),(8) requires a Project Analysis to include "an evaluation of energy alternatives and energy-efficient architectural and engineering design alternatives ... ""

There are a number of energy conservation design strategies which could be incorporated into the designs for this project, summarized below. A number of these features are already becoming mainstream practice in architecture and engineering design for sustainable buildings. Other energy conservation strategies are in research and development.

The State Energy Conservation Office (SECO) requires compliance with the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) 2021. It is likely that the water-cooled A/C system, LED lighting, controls, and building orientation and envelope improvements will meet the energy code without the need for alternate energy systems. Therefore, alternate energy/water systems are listed for consideration, but are NOT included in the programming and cost estimation.

Mainstream Energy Conservation

1. Central Plant and Thermal Storage for Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning (HVAC):

A central plant to provide chilled and hot water to HVAC equipment offers energy consumption efficiency by consolidating equipment into a single campus location, serving multiple buildings, instead of designing and installing stand-alone HVAC systems for each building.

Related to the design of a central plant is the concept of "thermal storage" for chilled water, to supply cooling needed for campus buildings. Energy consumption savings are realized by thermal storage when power is consumed during "off peak" nighttime hours to chill water stored in heavily insulated tanks for daytime use. Demand on the utility grid is reduced by redistributing consumption from mid-afternoon to early morning hours.

The PEC electrical bills for the facility indicate an approximate $0.09 per kWh from PEC, and the rate does not have a charge per kW. However, there is a demand-reduction incentive program such that the transmission cost is determined by the load. It is unclear the savings, but even small reductions in the kWh rate will add up and provide reasonable payback for thermal storage and efficiency measures listed below.

The Central Plant may employ energy efficiency control sequences and analyzed via central plant optimization. Sequences might include temperature reset, head pressure control, chillers in series counterflow. All plant equipment can benefit from variable frequency drives. A heat recovery chiller may be used as the pony chiller and for domestic hot water, especially with the high shower and kitchen loads, and no gas available for boilers.

Airside control sequences such as temperature setbacks, demand-controlled ventilation, and temperature reset can be used for greater efficiency. Automatic balancing valves can be used in conjunction with competent chilled water piping design to enable peak central plant performance.

2. Daylighting and high-efficiency artificial lighting with light control sensors:

The presence of natural light inside a building reduces the need for energy-consuming artificial lighting. The design of exterior walls presents a challenge and an opportunity to introduce natural light into occupied areas while still providing ample exterior wall insulation and ultra violet protection. Window placement to maximize interior penetration and reflection of daylight demands careful attention to a building's interior and exterior features during design. The benefit of daylighting is reduced electrical consumption for artificial lighting. The potential disadvantage is the reduced insulation value of an exterior wall as windows consume a greater percentage of the exterior wall area. Daylight design requires coordination between the Architect, Electrical and Mechanical Engineers to achieve the optimum balance of natural and artificial light. The use of LED fixtures with occupancy-sensors and ambient light sensors offer further means to supplement natural light with high-efficiency artificial lighting on cloudy days and after hours.

3. Exterior wall & window shading:

Supplemental to daylighting described above, is the specific need in the hot climate of Central Texas to shade windows and exterior walls from the direct radiant heat of the sun during Summer, and even Spring and Fall months. The path of the sun during these seasons requires design and selection of shading devices that perform the task of shading windows on the East, South, and West orientations of a building, while still admitting indirect sky-brightness into the building, particularly from the North.

Alternate Energy and Water Systems

1. Rainwater Harvesting:

Because the rainwater recharges the aquifer, it may not be advantageous to collect rainwater.

However, a smaller scale solution may include roof drain piping to a tank per building. The rainwater has opportunity for use in several areas:

• Flushing toilets

• Cooling tower make-up water

• Miscellaneous non-potable use

• With proper treatment and monitoring, water for domestic consumption

2. Reclaimed water:

Using reclaimed effluent water from the wastewater treatment plant for landscape irrigation is a favorable match with the water quality and nutrient density of reclaimed wastewater. Given the strain on water resources, this is an excellent opportunity for satisfying a relatively high irrigation load while the well can be dedicated to potable use. Reclaimed water can serve the same uses as listed about for rainwater harvesting, though special treatment is required for cooling tower integration.

3. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Energy Systems:

Typically, PV panels are placed on building rooftops for maximum sun exposure when available site space is limited. Rooftop installations present maintenance drawbacks, especially when roofing must be replaced. However, parking garages are ideal platforms for PV arrays - offering exterior walls and rooftops with easy access for maintenance and repair. Future PV on the roof of the parking garage is a good solution for reducing energy consumption and building resiliency for power outages.

SUMMARY AND DESIGN PROGRAM

1. The Williamson County TTC Facility Project Analysis provides a viable building solution to allow the DPS to effectively and efficiently serve the growing needs of DPS and local officers while providing the facilities to perform necessary training exercises. The analysis utilized information provided by the DPS including future employee totals and space requirements. The analysis also utilized historical data from previous DPS projects and a survey of pertinent factors specific to the Williamson County area.

2. Upon legislative approval of this project and completion of a financing agreement, the Texas Facilities Commission (TFC) will immediately contract with the DPS to enable commissioning of architects and engineers. Based on the projected schedule, the construction documents could be complete and ready for construction solicitation twenty-four (24) months after Legislative approval.

Bidding and contract awards together with construction would require an additional twenty-one (21) months.

3. The cost estimate in this Project Analysis is based on historical construction data for a similar project constructed in 2012 with added escalation to date by cost index factors from a nationally recognized construction cost data resource and a projected additional escalation of 3.5% per annum for a 36-month period starting in January of 2023. The cost index factor adjusts for normal construction cost increases but does not factor unforeseen events such as delayed approvals, natural disasters, material shortages, and labor strikes. This analysis demonstrates a viable building solution but does not preclude future development of an alternate approach.
