PROJECT DESCRIPTION The required work elements include, but may not be limited to the following; installation of poles, catenary lightning protection systems (with ground loops), and exterior security lighting. Work performance may require multiple mobilizations in order to accommodate an on-going mission schedule, which will prohibit construction/occupation all nonessential personnel from occupying the tidal side of the installation during a mission. Interested contractors must be able to provide verifiable experience of performing similar projects that involve both electrical and civil disciplines working within areas having existing fill (bay mud). Description of Work: The installation (previously known as the Concord Naval Weapons Station) is now known as Military Ocean Terminal Concord (MOTCO), which the Department of the Army has taken possession from the Department of the Navy several years ago. The current areas that require Lightning Protection Systems were originally constructed (for the Department of Navy missions) without existing protection from lightning strikes. The current customer desires the installation of Lightning Protection Systems that are to cover the following location; "R" - Buildings (#'s 1 through 4). This location is on the Tidal Side of the Installation where there is the potential for uncovering Unexploded Ordnance. This situation will require special circumstances during the construction effort, which will include the employment of UXO Construction Support during all construction activities. The basic approach to the construction of the MOTCO Lightning Protection project will be to erect steel poles with construction of overhead catenaries. The lightning poles should be supported by four 16 inch square concrete precast piles will be driven 78 feet deep and a pile cap to be formed and poured after pile driving operations. It is anticipated that "R" Buildings will require a total of 17 new steel lightning poles. The lightning poles are required to be electrically grounded (via 2 copper clad grounding rods) with the stringing overhead catenaries. Trenching for the installation of an underground bare copper counterpoise, and exothermic welding ( which will be required at each lightning pole location) will be part of Contractor's responsibility.
