This is a 2 Phase Design Build pre-solicitation notice for a Design and repair of the plumbing and fire
protection systems within composite building B150, Tin City Long Range Radar Site (LRRS), Tin City,
Alaska. The Tin City LRRS is located near the western tip of the Seward Peninsula approximately 650
air miles northwest of Anchorage, AK, a logistically challenging, remote location accessible only by air
and/or barge. Building B150 is 4 stories, with the third story unoccupied. The facility was originally
designed for over 300 personnel to operate this remote radar site, however, is minimally manned for
maintenance of the facilities. The building occupancy and use will not change. Design and repairs
include replacement of the existing fire sprinkler system, plumbing systems, and will incorporate all
related architectural, structural, electrical, and other necessary supporting disciplines to complete the

within the facility, including the establishment of a complete temporary kitchen to support meal
preparation and cleanup when the permanent kitchen is shut down for plumbing repairs.
