Separator (OWS) must be provided to minimize adverse environmental impacts in case of an inadvertent spill of petroleum, oil, or lubricants (POL) or other liquids from the aircraft.

2.4. Parking Apron

The parking apron must accommodate three (3) C-17 aircraft simultaneously and allow aircraft to taxi in and taxi out under their own power. Aircraft will access the parking apron from parallel Taxiway F. Aircraft will taxi out to parallel Taxiway F heading south and turn onto Taxiway G to gain access to the runway. The section of existing Taxiways E and F intersected by Taxiway G will be reconstructed to support loads imparted by C-17 aircraft.

The parking apron must be constructed of Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement with a drainage layer. Paved and unpaved shoulders must be provided along the access taxiway and around the perimeter of the pad to protect adjacent areas from jet blast, help mitigate foreign object damage (FOD), permit equipment storage, and to facilitate drainage. Paved shoulders must be constructed of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) pavement. An Oil Water Separator (OWS) must be provided to minimize adverse environmental impacts in case of an inadvertent spill of petroleum, oil, or lubricants (POL) other liquids from the aircraft.

Tie-downs in the parking apron must be provided to allow simultaneous mooring of three (3) C-17 aircraft and simultaneous mooring of three (3) CH-47 rotary wing aircraft and the maximum number of UH-60 aircraft as feasible. Location of moorings must assume fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft will be occupying the parking apron at different times.

2.5. Demolition and Debris Removal

Earthen berms, bunkers, buildings, and debris piles that lie within the project footprint and within required clear zones must be removed and hauled off site in compliance with Romanian Government rules and regulations as part of the scope of work for this project. Note that demolition must not commence prior to issuance of an Urbanism Certificate and Demolition Permit by the Romanian Government (See Section 3.0 Permits and Approvals).

3.0 Permits and Approvals

It is the D-B Contractor’s responsibility to verify all permitting procedures and requirements and obtain required permits and approvals prior to starting construction. Basic Information regarding Romanian Government approvals and permits follows.

3.1. Urbanism Certificate

This Certificate will be obtained by the U.S. government and is required for delisting buildings from Romanian Government records prior to demolition and construction. The Urbanism Certificate will include all Building Permit and Demolition Permit requirements that the D-B Contractor will need to fulfill. At the time RFP was prepared, U.S. Army Europe had begun the application process with the Host Nation (HN) authority to obtain the Urbanism Certificate. The requirements of the Building Permit and Demolition Permit will be provided by the COR when they become available. The D-B Contractor is alerted to the fact that the Urbanism Certificate does not give the right to execute the construction work.

3.2. Building Permit

The D-B Contractor is responsible for obtaining a Building Permit from the HN government. The requirements of the Building Permit are provided in the Urbanism Certificate (see Section 3.1).

Construction works are only allowed on the basis of a building permit in accordance with Romanian Governing Law No. 50/1991. To obtain the building permit, the D-B Contractor must apply to the appropriate City Hall responsible for the land on which the facility is proposed to be built. The D-B Contractor is typically required to provide the following documentation in support of the application:

Urbanism Certificate;

Proof of the property title of the land and/or existing buildings or an extract from the updated cadastral plan and an extract from the updated land register information on the application date in the case in which the law does not provide otherwise;

Necessary legal approvals and agreements established by the Urbanism Certificate;

The technical project/basis of design for authorizing the execution of construction works;

Proof of payment of legal fees.

The Building Permit documentation typically requires professional design and/or endorsement by architects and engineers with diplomas recognized by the Romanian Government.

Documentation includes:

Written description of the project that includes:

o technical narratives, o supporting data and calculations, o cost estimate, and o all supporting information including but not limited to items such as geotechnical studies and proof of authorization for utility connections Project drawings, including general layout plans and project specific layout plans.

Romanian Government requirements are typically provided after application is made to the reviewing authority. The Building Permit includes all areas to be utilized by D-B Contractor, including off-site areas.

3.3. Demolition Permit

The D-B Contractor is responsible for obtaining a Demolition Permit from the HN government.

The requirements of the Demolition Permit are provided in the Urbanism Certificate (see Section 3.1). The D-B Contractor must adhere to the requirements of the Demolition Permit, which will be provided by the COR when they become available. The D-B Contractor must coordinate permitting through the COR.

3.4. Tree Removal and Endangered Species Permits

Tree Removal Permit The D-B Contractor is responsible for obtaining the Tree Removal Permit from the HN government. The legal framework and procedural steps needed for obtaining official authorization for harvesting vegetation are provided in the Task 2.5 of the Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (Task 2.5), found in Appendix F. Per section 3.2 of Task 2.5., the Romanian MOD begins the process for the HN Government to determine the tree removal permit requirements and the D-B Contractor and their licensed harvesting company must obtain the permit. The D-B Contractor’s permit requirements will be provided by the COR when they become available.

Endangered Species Permit The D-B Contractor is responsible for obtaining the Endangered Species Permit from the HN government. A Threatened and Endangered Species (TES) Survey was conducted under contract by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Europe District as Task 2.6 of the Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (Task 2.6). Flora, Fauna, and Natural Habitats were assessed in the TES, which is located in Appendix F of this RFP.

According to the TES, seven (7) avian breeding species are protected under the European Union Birds Directive - Natura 2000 (2009/147/EC) and ten (10) avian breeding species are protected under Romanian Ordinance 57/2007/Law 4/2011. The

Romanian MOD typically begins the process for the HN Government to determine permit requirements and the D-B Contractor typically obtains the permit. The D-B Contractor’s permit requirements will be provided by the COR when they become available. The D-B Contractor must coordinate any endangered species permitting through the COR and Romanian MOD.

3.5. Work Plan and Construction Traffic Circulation Approval

The D-B- Contractor must prepare and submit to the Romanian civilian air authority through the COR a phased work plan including temporary construction and airport traffic circulation on all roads and work areas within 150 meters (492 feet) of the runway. Emergency procedures are also included in this submittal. The D-B Contractor must assume a minimum duration of six (6) to nine (9) months to obtain approval after submitting the application. The D-B Contractor must adhere to the approved plan throughout construction. This approval must be in place prior to obtaining a Building Permit.

3.6. DDESB Certification

The D-B Contractor’s 100% design requires certification by the Department of Defense Explosives Safety Board (DDESB) before construction can commence. The D-B Contractor must anticipate a DDESB review period of 180 calendar days maximum after the 100% design submittal is accepted by the U.S. Government.

4.0 Project Requirements

4.1. Design Criteria

The facility must be compatible with applicable United States (U.S.) Department of Defense (DoD), Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), US Air Force, US Army, NATO, and Host Nation (HN) design criteria, as well as all laws and acts. All relevant Host Nation (Romanian) and U.S. laws and building regulations and the applicable technical regulations, guidelines, standards, manufacturer specifications, etc. apply, whereby the Host Nation Building laws have priority.
