PRESERVATION OF HISTORICAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL DATA

PART 1 GENERAL

1.01 BACKGROUND

The proposed project occurs on land that was formerly a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp from 1939-1941. The camp is considered a historic resource, although at present no surface evidence of the camp remains. However, there is a possibility that sub-surface features might be present. Christine E.

Pfaff documented many of the Bureau of Reclamation’s CCC camps in her book: Bureau of Reclamation’s Civilian Conservation Corps Legacy: 1933 – 1942 (February 2010, Published by the U.S.

Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Denver, Colorado and available on-line at http://www.usbr.gov/cultural/CCC_Book/CCCReport.pdf and accessed December 2015). The following descriptions are taken from that book under Camp BR-91 in the Appendix:

CCC Camp F-43 was established in October 1939. [BR-91 may be an internal Reclamation number.] The camp existed until 1941. During this time, it housed 225 personnel who worked on the Deer Creek Dam and Reservoir, the Midway-Charleston Highway, Duchesne Tunnel complex, Weber-Provo diversion canal, Salt River Aqueduct, Moon Lake Dam wall, and the Yellowstone Feeder Canal among their many different projects.

A camp plan shows the main buildings facing a lawn-covered quadrant with a flag pole at the center. Buildings include 4 barracks in a row, a combined mess hall and kitchen, combined lavatory and bathhouse, wash house, several garages, warehouse, dispensary, welfare buildings, two educational buildings, officers and technical service quarters, and various small storage and miscellaneous buildings. At the west perimeter of the camp, space was set aside for a camp garden (educational project), basketball court, and baseball field. Except for the recreation building, two small garages, and, possibly, one other building, the camp was of the rigid type and “not worth salvaging for removal to other locations.” (RG 115, Entry 22, Box 12).

The CCC built Camp BR-91 on Reclamation land. After the camp closed, the CCC transferred use of the vacated buildings to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Salt Lake City, on August 19, 1942. The camp was then placed under the control of the Salt Lake Army Air Base and became a

01 13 50 ‐ 2 military training facility. In March 29, 1944, Reclamation asked permission of the War Department for use of the camp in connection with the enlargement of Provo Reservoir Canal when the Army no longer needed the camp. After the war, Reclamation eventually transferred use of the property to the Provo River Water Users Association as a maintenance and storage facility in 1956.

Under a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between Reclamation, the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), the Provo River Water Users Association, and the Pleasant Grove Historic Preservation Commission, the east side of the camp was deeded to the Provo River Water Users Association. This occurred in August of 2012. Under the terms of the MOA, the Provo River Water Users Association could demolish four existing CCC structures and would move two structures to a new location on the southeast side of Reclamation’s property to make space for their new office and warehouse buildings.

The two buildings which were moved included a doctor’s office and a mess hall. They were moved to the southeast corner of Reclamation’s property. Under an amendment to the MOA in December 2015, these two buildings will be moved off the property or demolished. Thus, there will be no visible evidence of the CCC camp left on the surface of the site.

While no surface evidence remains, there is a possibility for sub-surface remains. None have been noted at the camp, but the possibility is there. At present, the camp is presumed destroyed.

1.04 BACKGROUND

A. To reduce the environmental impact of its buildings the federal government has established a set of sustainable building performance requirements through Executive Order 13693, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, and other actions and laws. The primary sustainable building requirements are known as the “Guiding Principles”.

1.05 DESIGN

A. Provide building and site compliance with the following sustainability requirements:

1. Guiding Principles (GP), achieved through the completion of the “Reclamation Guiding Principle Checklist for New Construction (RGPC – NC)” (Appendix A and http://www.usbr.gov/sustainablebuildings/tools.html). GPs are listed below with further definition provided in GP documentation sheets (Appendix B)

01 25 00 ‐ 4

2. Reclamation Specific (RS) Focus Areas and Initiatives achieved through the completion of the “Reclamation Specific (RS) Focus Area and Initiatives Checklist for New Construction” (Appendix C and http://www.usbr.gov/sustainablebuildings/tools.html).

RSs are listed below with further definition provided in RS documentation sheets (Appendix D).

3. Additional federal requirements including:

a. Energy Reduction

1) Per EISA 2007, design to achieve 30% below ASHRAE 90.1–2010 if life cycle cost-effective. This requirement is more stringent than the current Guiding Principles ASHRAE 90.1-2007 requirement.

b. Stormwater Runoff

1) Per EISA Section 438 “Storm water runoff requirements for federal development projects.” The sponsor of any development or redevelopment project involving a Federal facility with a footprint that exceeds 5,000 square feet shall use site planning, design, construction, and maintenance strategies for the property to maintain or restore, to the maximum extent technically feasible, the predevelopment hydrology of the property with regard to the temperature, rate, volume, and duration of flow.

c. Charging Infrastructure

1) Per EO13693, include appropriate design and deployment of fleet charging infrastructure. The Owner investigated this requirement and requires the following be provided (scenario assumes main panel inside connecting to EV charging stations outside):

a) Installed capacity in feed wiring to breaker panel, breaker space, and conduit to outside to accommodate 5 three-phase EV charging stations.

b) Conduit to outside to be capped off approximately 8 ft. beyond building foundation with magnetic warning tape above.

c) Provide breaker panel knockout space so similar charging stations could be installed inside as an alternative to outside installation.

d. Climate Resilient Design

01 25 00 ‐ 5

1) Per EO 13693, incorporate climate-resilient design. The Owner investigated this requirement and requires the contractor to consult with Reclamation on design strategies to address the following potential issues: increased severe weather events, local flooding from stormwater, higher snow loads, and higher maximum temperatures (+7 oF estimate).

e. Pollinator Friendly Design

1) Per EO 13693, incorporate pollinator-friendly landscaping where the existing landscaping will be disturbed. This includes features such as the following:

a) Choosing native plants that support the forage, reproduction, shelter, roosting, and/or hibernation of pollinators;

b) Choosing plants that are adapted for the local ecoregion with a strong preference for native plants;

c) Choosing native plants that bloom at different times across seasons to provide a continuous source of nectar;

d) Locating plantings where they are visible to the public but with space to buffer pollinators from disturbance;

e) Providing nesting sites for pollinators (e.g., bees, butterflies, birds, bats, etc.);

f) Reducing or altering the timing of mowing to preserve plant material such as blooms and nesting material in turf that is beneficial to pollinators;

g) Employing principles of integrated pest management and integrated vegetation management such that insecticides and herbicides are only used when a documented pest problem exists, action thresholds are exceeded, and after other non-toxic alternatives are exhausted;

h) Incorporating pest free design elements in the planning phase of new construction and major renovations to reduce or eliminate pests from the landscape;

4. Insulation Blowing Agents: Where insulation materials meet performance requirements, use material with lowest global warming potential. Determined through the blowing agent used in the manufacturing process.

01 25 00 ‐ 6

5. Solar PV Ready: Regardless of the lifecycle cost effectiveness of solar PV, provide the following:

a. Building orientation and roof slope reasonable for solar PV.

b. Minimized shading.

c. Roof structural capacity for solar PV panels. Amount of PV panels to be planned for should be either limited by sufficient PV panels to achieve net zero energy or the amount of roof space appropriate for PV panel installation (e.g. not shaded roof areas due to HVAC equipment).

d. Simplified roof attachments.

e. Inverter location to be shaded, or inside of the building (e.g. north side of building).

f. Conduit installed between:

1) Roof and inverter location.

2) Inverter location and tie into AC system location.

g. Space made available at AC tie in to minimize re-work needed during installation (e.g. space in breaker panels).

B. To facilitate the transition to and compliance with existing building sustainability requirements, develop a Building Management Plan that includes the following components:

1. Building Exterior and Hardscape Maintenance

a. Cleaning of building exterior

b. Paint characteristics to match color and paint type for repainting

c. Reflective surface maintenance
