SCOPE OF WORK

GAAR 196943

NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

GATES OF THE ARCTIC NATIONAL PARK & PRESERVE

INSTALL FIRE SUPPRESSION IN EMPLOYEE HOUSING

MARION CREEK, ALASKA

Background

The purpose of this contract is to install NFPA 13D fire suppression systems in two employee housing units, located in Marion Creek, Gates of the Arctic National Park & Preserve (GAAR), Alaska.

Objectives

The Contractor shall furnish the necessary personnel, material, equipment, and services (except as otherwise specified), to design and install two new NFPA 13D wet-pipe fire suppression systems in two residential employee housing units located in Marion Creek, Alaska.

This project will include design, installation, testing, and certification of two new fire suppression and alarm systems. The new fire suppression systems will at a minimum meet the requirements of a NFPA 13D wet-pipe system.

The two housing facilities are located across the street from each other. One unit has a two-car garage, while the other unit does not have a garage. Both units have existing fire suppression systems that will need to be removed and replaced with new piping and appurtenances. On-site water storage and booster pumps will be required to meet system water flow demands. The existing water source is a well with a flow rate of approximately 5 gallons per minute.

The new installation will conceal as much of the system piping as possible using a pipe soffit product such as “Decoshield” or equal. Both single story buildings have similar footprints, with the exception of the attached Garage on one of the units. There are three entries on each structure, with the arctic entry serving as the main entrance. The approximate living area of each unit is 1400 sf with three bedrooms, and two bathrooms in each unit.

During the performance of the work, the contractor shall provide adequate professional supervision and quality control to assure the accuracy, quality, completeness and progress of work. The facilities may be occupied by employees, and coordination will be necessary to complete the work. The park will require a 48 hour notice to the primary POC prior to any on-site activities.

The Park will provide personnel to ensure work areas are clear of personal artifacts.

Work shall be performed during regular Park hours, from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Work performed outside of those hours to be scheduled with National Park Service personnel, and shall require a 24 hour notice.

This Scope of Services applies to one site visit for the purpose of site inspection, and one trip for the purpose of completing the site work and installation associated with this contract, and to complete system testing and certification.

Basic utilities such as water and electrical services will be available at no charge to the selected contractor. It is the responsibility of the contractor to verify that all the information provided in this solicitation is accurate.

All work is to be completed in accordance with the Scope, Specifications, and Contract Drawings, as well as all applicable Codes and Standards. Contractor shall, without additional expense to the Government, be responsible for obtaining necessary licenses and permits, and for complying with any and all applicable federal, state, and borough laws, codes, and regulations pertaining to the performance of the service that is to be rendered.

The Contractor shall take proper safety and health precautions to protect workers, the public, and property. The Contractor shall provide the Government all requested reports, and supporting material developed during the performance of the work. The Contractor shall provide adequate professional supervision and quality control to assure the accuracy, quality, completeness and progress of work. The Contractor shall ensure protection during work, and restoration (if damaged), of building finishes, tenant property, furnishings, etc.

Description of Tasks:

1) Design, Furnish and Install Wet-Pipe Fire Suppression systems in Building 1C, and Building 2C, to meet at a minimum the requirements of an NFPA 13D wet-pipe fire suppression system. The fire alarm and suppression system shall include the following:

The domestic water supply is an on-site well with a flow rate of approximately 5 gpm. Locations for the water storage tanks have been identified in the garage of Building 1C, and in the mechanical room of Building 2C.

b) The systems shall be capable of being completely drained down each season and will be dormant for the winter. The Fire Suppression Systems shall in general consist of wall-mounted sprinkler heads.

c) The new piping and components located within the living spaces shall be concealed with a pipe soffit system such as “Decoshield” or equal.

d) Furnish and Install 2 ea. fire alarm systems to include a Fire Alarm Control Panel, Exterior Bell, 1 ea. Strobe, 1 ea. pull station, smoke/CO detectors located in the garage, mechanical room, and outside each bedroom, and hard-wired smoke detectors in each bedroom. All new electronic equipment to be provided with surge protection devices.

e) Upon completion of work, contractor shall test all systems and alarms to ensure proper function and shall provide commissioning service to ensure all facets of the newly constructed systems are operational. Testing and inspection shall be recorded on NPS forms included in this solicitation.

f) Upon completion, contractor shall inventory the newly installed fire suppression and alarm systems on government provided inventory forms and provide photographs of the completed installation.

g) Provide system design information on riser nameplate or placard to include design flow, minimum system pressure, and pressure at riser base.

h) Provide current inspection certificates for the newly installed fire suppression system.
