ASHE 13-1061 REPLACE AIRFIELD LIGHTS WITH LEDS AREA F

AVIANO AB, ITALY

1. SCOPE OF WORK: Scope of this work to replace existing airfield taxiway LED elevated fixtures (295) with flush mounted LED fixtures, the relocation of improperly sited fixtures (9) with flush mounted LED fixtures, and the installation of the missing flush mounted fixtures (29). Work will also include the disposal of old fixtures, lamps and accessories according to environmental law and regulations. The airfield taxiway (TWY) lights are operational twenty-four hours per day, seven days a week, three hundred sixty five days per year to meet mission requirements. In addition to the replacement of the existing 295 fixtures, this project will result in correcting improperly sited or missing lights. TWY Mike requires TWY edge lighting, the North Ramp requires TWY edge lights on the west entrance, TWY Zulu requires TWY edge lights on the west entrance, NATO 14-16 Pads require TWY edge lighting, TWYs A4 and B4 require re-siting in order to have a consistently straight line of lights, and TWY A1 requires re-siting of the lights that are improperly sited. The installed fixtures are to be compliant with the below specifications as well as in accordance with references outlined in paragraph six.
