General: United States Coast Guard Station Venice is accepting proposals for qualified individuals or firms to complete instillation of four potable water supplied eye wash stations, two commercial marine grade self-retracting hose reels, and removal of old potable water piping on pier and installing new potable water piping. Instillation locations of eye wash stations will be one on the pier, one under the main building, one next to the hazmat storage, and one under the ANT Building. The eye wash station under the ANT building will be supplied by ¾” PVC pipe that is located inside the wall. Access will be through a 12” X 12” access plate. The eye wash station under the main building will be supplied by an external hose spicket. The eye wash station next to the hazmat storage shed will be supplied by an underground ¾” PVC water line. The last and final eye wash station that will be located on the pier will be supplied by the new potable water pipe. The total length of potable water piping is estimated at approx. 150 Ft long. The new potable water piping installed on pier will be tied into existing copper potable water pipe under the pier. Pipping will rise above the pier and run down the pier via installed unit strut structure to the eye wash station and two contractor supplied commercial marine grade hose reels. Contractor shall install a shut off valve at the foot of the pier and a drain valve to drain the water piping in the event of a freeze. All eye wash stations and hose reels shall have shut off valves on water supply lines. The eye wash station and hose reels on pier shall have drain valves installed at lowest part of drop downs. All potable water pipping must be the same size, type, and material that is currently under the pier.
