• 13.8-kV Arc-Resistant switchgear assembly including four switchgears and corresponding switchgear buildings;

• Non-segregated phase bus duct;

• Structural steel supports and corresponding foundations;

• New panels skins, control boards, cables;

• New power and feeder cables, power cable trays and power cable splice cabinet;

• 125 VDC batteries, chargers and distribution panel;

• Uninterruptible Power System;

• 6-inch tubular rigid bus, structural steel supports and corresponding foundations; and

• Current Limiting Reactors (CLR), non-ferrous metal support system and corresponding foundations.

Due to the arc lengths possible at the CLRs, a new grounded 4-ft tall chain-link fence is required for safety purposes.

3. OBJECTIVES

Provide barrier from reactor and reactor’s electrical influence area and maintenance staff working in Western Switchyard boundaries. Improve safety in Western’s switchyard.

4. SCOPE

The Contractor shall furnish all necessary parts, labor, tools, transportation, supplies, supervision, equipment, materials and incidentals, and install approximately 540 linear feet of 4-foot tall gray color, galvanized metal chain-link fence, around three separate reactor groups, approximately 180 linear feet per reactor group. The chain-link fence shall tie into the east and west building walls. The south building wall has an electrical required clearance space that cannot be encroached into. See attached drawings for directional references. The fence shall be connected to the existing buried grounding system. Fence installation location has original ground with approximately 6” of loose gravel surfacing around all existing installations. After fence installation is complete, displaced gravel shall be relocated to its near original position and approximately level. Corner posts shall be required at obvious corner sets, end posts and supports at each of the gate locations (3 single-swing 4-foot wide x 4-foot tall gates).

There is an existing buried tunnel south of the buildings and north of the reactors. If the fence layout requires posts to be installed over the tunnel ceiling, the posts shall not puncture through the ceiling of the tunnel. The posts shall need to support loads, determined by the International Building Code. Any mechanical anchors cannot extend into the ceiling by more than 6-inches. Post locations over tunnel must miss concrete post in tunnel as indicated on drawings.

Warning signage shall be purchased and installed on each fence enclosure. Warning signage shall read “High Voltage Authorized Personnel Only”. The signs will be attached to each side of the fence enclosures approximately in the center and at all entrances.

The Department urges its contractors, subcontractors and lessors to develop and enforce comprehensive anti-discrimination policies for their places of work.

H.2 ET 02-20 AUTHORIZED WORKERS NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BUREAU OF

RECLAMATION CONTRACTORS (SEP 2002)

(a) Definitions.

IRCA - Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 INA - Immigration and Nationality Act INS - Immigration and Naturalization Service SSA - Social Security Administration INS SAVE Program - The INS Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements Program ESA - Employment Standards Administration (Department of Labor)

(a) Authority. Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (8 USC 1101 as amended) and the Immigration and Nationality Act, Section 274A.

(b) Who is Covered. INA includes provisions addressing employment eligibility, employment verification, and nondiscrimination. These provisions apply to all employers, including government contractors.

(c) Basic Provisions/Requirements. Under IRCA, employers may hire only persons who may legally work in the U.S., i.e., citizens and nationals of the U.S. and aliens authorized to work in the U.S. The employer must verify the identity and employment eligibility of anyone to be hired, which includes completing the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9). Employers must keep each I-9 on file for at least three years, or one year after employment ends, whichever is longer. Detailed guidance on the I-9 is available at the INS web site:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/services/employerinfo/index.htm

(d) Employment Verification Pilot Programs. The INS and the SSA are conducting the following programs that provide employers a way to confirm the employment eligibility of their newly hired employees. Any employer located in a pilot state may volunteer to participate in a pilot program. If employers are not located in a pilot state, they would verify employment eligibility by following the procedures currently in place, i.e., by completing Form I-9.

(1) The Basic Pilot is a joint pilot being conducted by the INS and SSA in the States of California, Florida, Illinois, Nebraska, New York, and Texas. This pilot involves verification checks of the SSA and INS databases of all newly hired employees, regardless of citizenship. To receive information on the Basic Pilot program please call the INS SAVE Program toll free at 1- 888-464-4218, or fax your request for information to (202) 514-9981, or write to USINS, SAVE Program, 425 I Street, NW, ULLICO Building 4th Floor, Washington, DC 20536. You may also contact the Social Security Administration by calling (410) 966-1940, or writing to Social Security Administration, Office of Program Benefits Policy, 6401 Security Blvd., 760 Altmeyer, Baltimore, MD 21235.

(2) The INS is conducting the Citizen Attestation Pilot in the States of Arizona, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Virginia. The Citizen Attestation Pilot permits participating employers to electronically verify the employment eligibility of newly hired alien employees by using a personal computer with a modem. To receive information on the Citizen Attestation Pilot program please call the INS SAVE Program toll free at 1-888-464-4218, or fax your request for information to (202) 514-9981. Employers may also write to US/INS, SAVE Program, 425 I Street, NW, ULLICO-4th Floor, Washington, DC 20536.

(3) The INS and the SSA are conducting the Machine-Readable Document Pilot in the State of Iowa. The Machine-Readable Document Pilot is identical to the Basic Pilot in all respects, except http://uscis.gov/graphics/services/employerinfo/index.htm for the geographic scope of the pilot and for one additional feature. If an employee presents an Iowa's driver's license or identification card containing a machine-readable SSN, the employer will make an inquiry through the confirmation system by using the machine-readable feature. To receive information on the Machine-Readable Document Pilot program please call the INS SAVE Program toll free at 1-888-464-4218, or fax your request for information to (202) 514- 9981. You may also write to US/INS, SAVE Program, 425 I Street, NW, ULLICO-4th Floor, Washington, DC 20536.

(e) Employee Rights. The INA protects U.S. citizens and aliens authorized to accept employment in the U.S. from discrimination in hiring or discharge on the basis of national origin and citizenship status.

(f) Compliance Assistance. More detailed information, including copies of explanatory brochures and regulatory and interpretative materials, may be obtained from local offices of the Department of Labor's Employment Standards Division, Wage and Hour Division, and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs.

(g) Penalties/Sanctions. Employers who fail to complete and/or retain the I-9 forms are subject to penalties. The INS enforces the INA requirements on verification of employment eligibility. The Justice Department enforces the anti-discrimination provisions. As part of their ongoing enforcement efforts, the ESA's Wage and Hour Division and Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs conduct inspections of the I-9 forms. They report their findings to the INS and to the Department of Justice when they find cases of disparate treatment or unauthorized employment. A debarring official may debar a contractor, based on a determination by the Attorney General of the United States, or designee, that the contractor is not in compliance with the INA. The Attorney General's determination is not reviewable in the debarment proceedings.
