PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Site Plan: The ASP site encompasses approximately 60 acres.  The existing site is an undisturbed site covered with native vegetation. A security fence will be required around the entire ASP. Concrete surfaces will be required for all surfaces requiring forklift travel within the ASP area. The roadway and parking/search areas can be improved gravel surfaces.

Utility Plans: Existing utilities do not currently serve the site. Existing power service, consisting of overhead lines, run past the site along Watts Road and should be adequate to support the new facilities. Potable water is available at the Range Maintenance Building located approximately 0.8 miles to the West on Watts Road and will need to be piped to the site. Septic fields can be used to handle the limited amount sanitary waste generated at the ASP site. Communication service will need to come from either Camp Williams or from approximately 0.50 miles south of the Range Maintenance Building. The use of radio communications can be evaluated. Communication will be required for phone service, security alarms, fire alarms and security cameras, all of which must be connected to Camp Williams.

The main entrance, parking lot and vehicle inspection area will be illuminated.  Security lighting will be required for the gates and Magazine areas.   Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) is required for security to remotely monitor the site from the Camp Williams Containment area.  A site lightning protection grid is also required.  The Administration and SIRE Buildings will feature a wet pipe fire protection system.  Water, T1 data and video cable are available from the Tickville Maintenance site approximately 1 mile away.  Electricity is accessible from Watts Rd.  Propane tanks are required to serve the heated buildings.  The Administration and Sire Buildings are the only buildings requiring septic sewer service.  They will utilize a septic tank system for the sanitary sewer service.   

Site elevation differences need to be carefully managed to achieve the desired road grades and limit excavation costs. The maximum proposed slope is planned to be 3:1 with typical site slopes ranging in the 3% to 8% range.

Landscaping: Minimal landscaping will be associated with this project and will be limited to reseeding the disturbed areas.

The Ammunitions Supply Point Facility is a LEED self-certified project.  The site will contain a 2,745 square foot pre-engineered Administrative Building, eleven 26'-8" x 80' concrete, earth covered magazines (ECM), a 13,729 square foot Surveillance, Inspection, Repair and Equipment Building (SIRE), a simple pre-engineered 2,400 square foot Breakdown Building, a simple pre-engineered 1,500 square foot, Inert Storage Building and a 4,400 square foot loading dock structure utilizing a pre-engineered metal building roof system and providing three delivery bays.  

Inert Storage Building and Breakdown Building.  Earth Covered Magazines will utilize manually operated gravity ventilators.
