CHAPTER 1 - PROJECT DESCRIPTION - Page 1

1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This project will provide potable water to the 10th Mountain Division that will enhance the protection and resilience of critical assets and capabilities. A lack of potable water would significantly impact the Northeast Regional Network Enterprise Center (NEC), the 86th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Vermont Army National Guard), 91st Military Police Battalion, 925th Contracting Battalion, Army Field Support Battalion- Drum, 308th Military Intelligence Battalion, and U.S. Army Medical Department Activity. This project contributes to mission assurance by ensuring no disruption to daily operations, deployments, training and living conditions which would detract from the mission. The project contributes to resiliency by eliminating the need to procure water from a public, off-post source.

This project will support the installation water demands by designing and constructing five potable groundwater production wells with telemetry, pumps and well house structure enclosures. Each of the five well house sites will include fencing a gate and a generator connection with the exception of well house #2.

A single permanently mounted generator and automatic transfer switch will be provided at well house #2 The project includes constructing HDPE DIPS water main pipes from the new water production well field area to the water treatment plant and construction of overhead electric three phase power distribution to the well sites and then underground power distribution to the well house as well as underground communications duct banks.

CHAPTER 2 - PROJECT OBJECTIVES - Page 1

2.0 PROJECT OBJECTIVES

2.1 Mission Statement

The Army's objective is that buildings have a 25-year useful design life before a possible reuse/re-purpose or renovation requirement, to include normal sustainment, restoration, modernization activities and a 40-year building replacement life. Therefore, design and construction should provide an appropriate level of quality to ensure continued use of the facility over that time-period with the application of reasonable preventive maintenance and repairs.

Site infrastructure will have at least a 40-year life expectancy with industry-accepted maintenance and repair cycles.

Requirements stated in this Contract are minimums. Innovative, creative, and life cycle cost effective solutions, which meet or exceed these requirements are encouraged. Further, the OFFEROR is encouraged to seek solutions that will expedite construction (panelization, pre-engineered, etc.) and shorten the schedule. The Government’s intent is to emphasize the placement of funds into functional/operational requirements. Materials and methods should reflect this by choosing the most economical Type of Construction allowed by code for this occupancy/project allowing the funding to be reflected in the quality of interior/exterior finishes

2.2 Project Design

Provide overall project design per Section 01 33 16.00 10, Design Data (Design After Award). The Contractor’s Designer of Record (DOR) is responsible for continuing the development of the schematic design documents located in Appendix A RFP Drawings based on the criteria in the DBRFP. CAD drawings will be provided to the Contractor at project award which can be used at the Contractor’s risk.

2.2.1 Site Design

The project site is located within the Fort Drum Army Base located in Jefferson County, NY. The project will create five new wells, combining to produce a minimum of 500 gpm (gallons/minute). A new water main will tee off from the 16” water main entering the water treatment plant to the intersection of Elm Lane and Pleasant Street and then feed through a combination of services and mains to each individual well.

The alignment of the water main has been thoroughly reviewed by the consultant, Fort Drum, and Army Corps of Engineers, and must be constructed as located in the Design Build RFP Drawings. The water main must be constructed of HDPE.

Electrical power will be fed from two separate sources to meet the resiliency requirements; one, an overhead three phase power is to be run from the intersection of Pleasant Street and Route 26 to the intersection with Elm Lane. The feed will continue overhead along Pleasant Street and well access driveways until it drops underground at poles located within 100 feet of each well. A second redundant feed will be run from VSFT38A to FT72A for Well #10 (Existing) to a utility pole located near the intersection of Main Tank Trail and Elm Lane. From this location the power will run overhead on utility poles to Well #2.

The feed will continue overhead along Pleasant Street and well access driveways until it drops underground at poles located within 100 feet of each well.

CHAPTER 2 - PROJECT OBJECTIVES - Page 2

Communications will be run from each well in underground duct banks back to a new manhole (CMH-3) located at the intersection of Pleasant Street and Elm Lane. From CMH-3 communications will run underground to the intersection of Elm Lane and Main Tank Trail into CMH-1. From CMH-1 it is believed that there are existing conduits that can be utilized to run the communications back to the water treatment plant. The DB Contractor will need to verify that there are existing conduits that can be used for the communications cabling.

2.2.2 Building Designs

Contractor and Contractor’s Designer of Record must be responsible to provide oversight, inspection and overall project coordination throughout. Design and construction approvals are required through review, comment, resolution, and concurrence by the Government.

Design Submittals must be in accordance with Design Submittal Procedures in the Specifications, and other sections of this RFP. Delegated designs and proprietary materials specified in design documents must comply with DOD regulations.

2.3 Facility Function

This project will support the installation water demands by constructing five potable groundwater production wells with telemetry, pumps and well house structure enclosures. Each of the five well house sites will include access roads, fencing, a hydrant, a fire department connection, a gate, and a generator connection. Signage above the fire department connections at each well house will indicate that the FDC is not for fire fighting purposes.

2.4 Project Specific Priorities

The project specific priorities are as follows:

The watermain and utility alignment.

Required output from the 5 total wells equals a minimum of 500 gallons per minute.

2.4.1 Sustainable Design and Construction

Design and construct the project to comply with sustainability requirements identified in Section 01 33 29, Sustainability Requirements and Reporting and in accordance with UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements.

2.4.2 Storm Water Management - Low Impact Development (LID)

Low Impact Development (LID) is required to be implemented in accordance with the Department of Defense (DoD) LID Policy. LID is a form of storm water management that infiltrates stormwater into the ground close to its source.

In January 2010, Deputy Under Secretary of Defense, issued Department of Defense (DoD) policy on implementation of storm water requirements under Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) Section 438. This policy directs DoD to implement EISA Section 438 Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) technical guidance in accordance with DoD Policy on Implementing EISA Section 438. UFC 3- 210-10, Low Impact Development, was developed to provide the minimum technical requirements to

CHAPTER 2 - PROJECT OBJECTIVES - Page 3 comply with DoD Policy on implementation of storm water requirements under EISA Section 438.

Use UFC 3-210-10 to comply with DoD, EISA 438, Fort Drum and Army Corps of Engineers LID Policy.

LID features will be associated with the well houses and gravel driveways (i.e., bio swales, infiltration, rainwater harvesting). Coordinate requirements for those systems in other parts of this RFP.

Comply with UFC 3-210-10, Low Impact Development. Additional specific LID and stormwater management requirements are found in RFP Parts 3 and 4, Section G30. In addition to LID, comply with Federal, State and Local stormwater regulations.

The project will likely create approximately 1.3 acres or more in new impervious area. It will be necessary to provide LID treatment of these new impervious surfaces. Specifically, the new impervious areas are associated with access driveways and well houses. A series of test pit and infiltration tests must be completed in these areas to determine the seasonal high groundwater elevation and potential infiltration rate of the soils. The design build team must select and design appropriate LID measures for each of the proposed treatment areas.

2.4.3 Energy Efficiency

Incorporate energy efficiency in accordance with UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements. Per UFC 1-200-02, Table 1-1 Building Requirements and Thresholds, the new well house buildings will be designed to achieve at least a 30% energy consumption reduction from ASHRAE 90.1 baseline. The building will meet current IECC and ASHRAE Envelope Requirements for Climate Zone 5A.

2.4.4 Building Commissioning

Building Commissioning is not required.

2.4.5 Accessibility Requirements

The new well house buildings will not be designed per 2015 ABAAS Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards, per Section 203.5 Machinery Spaces. Spaces frequented only by service personnel for maintenance, repair, or occasional monitoring of equipment shall not be required to comply with these requirements or to be on an accessible route.

2.4.6 Antiterrorism Criteria

Based on UFC 4-010-01, DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings, the new well pump houses are exempt from Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection (ATFP) requirements because they are classified as unoccupied buildings. The standards outlined in this UFC are intended to protect personnel within inhabited facilities, which are defined as being routinely occupied by 11 or more personnel. Since a well pump house does not meet this occupancy threshold, the mandatory requirements for standoff distances and structural hardening are not applicable.

2.4.7 Cybersecurity

Design, acquire and execute all control systems (including systems separate from management utility monitoring and control system) in accordance with UFC 4-010-06 Cybersecurity of Facility-Related

CHAPTER 2 - PROJECT OBJECTIVES - Page 4

2.6.2 Staffing/Occupancy

The five well houses are to be above ground structures. They will not be sprinklers and there are no fire alarms. A fire extinguisher will be provided inside next to the personnel door. The overall height is approximately 15 feet at the top of the high roof. The number of stories is one. The building footprint is approximately 196 square feet.

The well houses will have a construction type VB - any materials permitted by code, unprotected.

Per NFPA 101, these buildings will be classified as General Industrial occupancies that are unoccupied.

Per IBC, these buildings will be classified as Utility (Group U) occupancies that are unoccupied.

2.7 Special Design Challenges

The water main is proposed to be directionally bored under the South Branch of Beaver Creek in the vicinity of STA 508+00 to eliminate any environmental impacts to the stream. The stream is currently bridged by a pre-cast concrete box culvert.

There are temporary wetland impacts noted throughout the design plans for additional clearing required for overhead utility poles and associated three phase power. Additional impacts can be found where the underground communications duct bank and water main have been routed off to one side of the road.

The five wells must produce a combined volume of 500 gallons per minute (gpm ). Each well must be equipped with a variable frequency drive (VFD) and tied into the water treatment plant control system.

The VFD’s are adjusted by the water treatment plant operator to maintain water elevations within the three water storage tanks located on the base.

2.8 Adaptability and Flexibility

CHAPTER 3 - SITE ANALYSIS - Page 1

3.0 SITE ANALYSIS

This section includes the description of all site related information broken out into Existing Site Conditions and Site Development Requirements.

3.1 Existing Site Conditions

3.1.1 Natural Constraints

Topography: See drawings in Part 6 for detailed existing conditions. The plans are a compilation of existing ground survey (2023), GIS data and aerial photography. The project follows the path of several existing gravel roads; Main Tank Trail, Elm Lane, Pleasant Street. The majority of the work is located in the shoulder and just off the edge of these roadways. The topography around the Main Tank Trail is relatively flat as it abuts an active airfield. Portions of the Main Tank Trail are located well east of the runway to cross deep, 60-80 ft, ravines. The northern end of the Main Tank Trail slopes downward to the intersection of Elm Lane which is lower and is constructed approximately 3-5 feet above the existing ground. Pleasant Street commences at NYS Route 26 and roughly parallels the Main Tank Trail a mile to the north. It is constructed 3-5 feet above the existing ground. Topography around Pleasant Street and Elm Lane generally slopes east to west with many small stream culvert crossings and two large box culvert crossings for more significant brooks.

Vegetation: The vegetation along the Main Tank Trail is mostly grass pasture as it directly abuts an active airfield. The vegetation along Elm Lane and Pleasant Street consists of a dense mixture of coniferous and deciduous trees.

Natural Resources (Threatened and Endangered Species/Critical Habitat, Migratory Bird, and Essential Fish Habitat): The natural resources around the installation are well known to the Fort Drum Environmental Department (ED). The ED will provide documentation and assist in the permitting for the potential impacts to all natural resources.

Wetlands: Freshwater wetlands are abundant throughout the site and have been, for the most part, delineated by the ED. Additional wetlands are within the scope and will need to be delineated by the ED.

Reference Geotechnical Soils Report if applicable. A reference geotech report is available and can be found in Attachment C, Field Investigation Report .

Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) Survey or Evaluation Reports must be coordinated with Fort Drum prior to the commencement of construction.

3.1.2 Man made

Existing Vehicular Access and Circulation: Three existing gravel roads provide access to the majority of the project; Main Tank Trail, Elm Lane and Pleasant Street. See drawings in Part 6.

Site Utilities: An existing 16” non-potable water main flows east to west across the airfield into the existing water treatment plant. Existing underground electric and communications are located east of the Main Tank Trail and in the vicinity of the Main Tank Trail and Elm Lane intersection. Overhead electric exists along NYS Route 26 in the vicinity of the Pleasant Street intersection.

CHAPTER 3 - SITE ANALYSIS - Page 2

Site Drainage & Storm Water Runoff (hydrology): The project is linear and follows the path of several existing gravel roads; Main Tank Trail, Elm Lane, Pleasant Street. New impervious areas will be created by the construction of well access roads and driveways that serve each well. The amount of new impervious area created by the project will require LID Stormwater Treatment.

Existing Buildings: The majority of the site is located along or just off from existing gravel roads and the airfield. The only existing building in close proximity to the project is the existing water treatment plant, Building 2025 and elevated water storage tank.

Existing water storage tank, Building 2025 and Water Treatment Plant.

Fencing: Existing chain link security fencing exists around the water treatment plan and airfield. See drawings in Part 6.

Adjacent Land Use: The land east of Main Tank Trail is an active airfield. The three gravel roads within the project area are used by tanks to access exercise areas located through the installation.

Cultural Resources (historical, archeological): Cultural resources do exist within Fort Drum. Coordination with the Fort Drum Environmental Department (ED) is necessary to understand if the project infringes within any of these areas.

Permits: All existing land use, stormwater, natural and cultural resources, and well field groundwater withdrawal permits are held by the ED and Fort Drum. Coordination with the ED to update and obtain these permits is critical in the development of this design. The design build contractor must engage with and provide technical plans and permitting data as required by the ED to complete and obtain those permits. The water withdrawal permit has been submitted to the New York Department of Health (NYDOH) and the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (NYCDEC) for a modification of Ft. Drum’s existing water withdrawal permit based on the field investigation testing for this project. A water

CHAPTER 3 - SITE ANALYSIS - Page 3 quality certification will be required. The review for this application is anticipated to be 90 days. A Wetland Permit will be required. The review for this application is anticipated to be 120 days. A SPEDS Stormwater Permit will also be required for this project. The review for this application is anticipated to be 90 days. Additional permitting, including but not limited to, the NYSDOT for electric utility work in the right of way, National Grid and utility connection permits that are required for the construction of the project are the contractor’s responsibility. The DOR is responsible for completing and submitting the engineer certificate report which is required to be stamped by a New York licensed engineer.

3.2 Site Development Requirements

3.2.1 Facility Footprint

The building area footprint is 196 sf for each of the five well houses.

3.2.2 Vehicular Access and Circulation

Service Access and Parking: Each well house must be designed to accommodate maintenance trucks, trucks pulling a portable generator and a mobile crane large enough to pull out the existing well pump.

Utilities: The proposed utilities must include a water main that connects all new well houses to the water treatment plant. The water main must be capable of carrying the maximum flow and be equipped with adequate isolation valves. Additionally, the water main must follow the alignment as depicted on the drawings in Part 6.

The power to the well houses must be fed from two different sources to ensure that it is resilient. The drawings reflect an overhead alignment from the intersection of Elm Lane and Main Tank Trail to the well houses as well as an overhead feed from the intersection of Pleasant Street and NYS Route 26 to the well houses.

Communications must run from each well house to the water treatment plant. The drawings depict an alternative that utilizes a combination of existing conduits and new duct banks. See drawings in Part 6.

Signage: The contractor is to provide and install all required signage with review and approval prior to installation from Ft. Drum.

Site Drainage & Storm Water Runoff (hydrology): Based on the 30% design the project will introduce approximately 1.3 acres of new impervious area for the construction of the new access roads and five well houses. Low Impact Development (LID) Best Management Practices are required to provide stormwater treatment for all new impervious areas in accordance with UFC, EISA 438, State and Local permit requirements.

Dewatering: Portions of this project will require dewatering and work within seasonal streams. All dewatering practices must be carried out in compliance with all federal, state and local permit requirements.

Site Clearing: There is a significant amount of clearing required with this project dictated by the Fort Drum and UFC clear space requirements for overhead electric utilities. The areas of clearing must be coordinated with the ED and required land use permits. Timing of the clearing must be scheduled to ensure compliance with Federal Endangered Species as well as other permit requirements.

CHAPTER 3 - SITE ANALYSIS - Page 4

Fencing (perimeter security): New security fencing will be required around each well house. A minimum 10 foot clear distance must be maintained from the fence line to the edge of woods. Construction of the security fence must be in accordance with the UFC. See drawings in Part 6.

Permits: All required permitting is the responsibility of the contractor. However, all environmental permitting must be coordinated with the Fort Drum Environmental Department with the DB team providing necessary technical support throughout the project.

Sustainable Development: The project must utilize Low Impact Development (LID) stormwater strategies to provide treatment of all new impervious areas. Provide submittals in support of Section 01 33 29, Sustainability Requirements and Reporting.

3.3 Construction Phasing, Staging, and Contractor Access

Work performed on the site should follow the requirements outlined in Specification Section 01 14 00 and these guidelines. The contractor will have to coordinate with Ft. Drum during the training seasons that occur on base at specific locations which will impact the project area close to the airfield and OTC. The work performed along Main Tank Trail and in the limits of the airfield are required to be coordinated with the Ft. Drum Airfield and must follow the requirements to work in/around the airfield. The work must also be phased to not disturbed the bat species in the area, requirements for this have been attached to Specification Section 01 14 00. Work performed to the exterior of the buildings is to be coordinated with the occupants to minimize disruption at entry points, but does not have a prescribed sequence. The location of Contractor laydown and storage will need to be coordinated during construction for different areas of work. Work shall be sequenced in the manner that is most efficient and cost effective.

Construction Access / Lay down Area: The location of the construction access and laydown areas must be coordinated with Fort Drum.
