Description

STATEMENT OF WORK FOR AE SERVICES Date: 30 April 2022 Project: 583-22-203 Upgrade Underground Storage Tanks (UST) CNE, CS, and D-Wing 1. Scope of Work The Architect/Engineer (A/E) firm shall furnish professional services for 100% design to upgrade five (5) preexisting underground storage tanks (UST) to five (5) aboveground storage tanks (AST) at the Richard L. Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center, 1481 West 10th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46202. Deficiencies of the UST have been identified and to prevent potential failure during emergency generator use or groundwater impact, the UST will be replaced with AST that will have secondary containment and interstitial monitoring. The design will include Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction/Bid Documents per the A/E Design Submission Instructions Documents, Construction Administration Services, Technical Specifications and Cost Estimates. The designed AST will meet, at minimum, the same capacity and be able to contain the same contents as the preexisting. The AST will be connected to the facility via piping, electrical, and have monitoring devices to prevent overfill and/or detect the presence of fire or heat. Below are the details for the existing UST: Tank ID 1 2 3 4 5 Tank Purpose Emergency Generator Vehicular Fuel Dispenser Emergency Generator Emergency Generator Emergency Generator Capacity (gal) 2,000 8,000 (split tank, 4,000 each side) 2,000 2,000 12,000 Contents Fuel Oil #2 Diesel E85/ 87 Octane Fuel Oil #2 Diesel Fuel Oil #2 Diesel Fuel Oil #2 Diesel Tank Type Horizontal steel, double-walled Horizontal fiberglass, double-walled Horizontal steel, double-walled Horizontal steel, double-walled Horizontal, double-walled (steel inner, fiberglass outer) Special items to consider for this project: Phasing must be developed to maintain functionality of the facility in the case of emergency generator use to the maximum extent practical. AST will be designed in a manner than meets as local, state, and federal requirements for UST removal and installation. This will include any sampling and/or permitting required during transfer of UST contents to AST. During removal of UST, all removal permits, removal sampling, and certification of no spill activity must be filed with Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM). Emergency facility generators are fed from preexisting UST and will be re-piped to be fed from AST to allow a minimum generator run time of 96-hours emergency run. If the placement of the proposed five (5) AST cannot be completed where the preexisting UST are located, new locations of the AST should be proposed in similar areas to reduce potential impact to underground utilities and facility traffic. Proposed AST locations will not impede Fire Marshal requirements and there must appropriate spacing from on-site, stored, combustibles. The subject property originally lay within the Five-Year Time-of-Travel (W-5) Wellfield Protection Area Zoning District of the Riverside Wellfield. In 2019, a routine re-delineation of the wellfield resulted in a change in the location of the wellfield boundary. As a result of this re-delineation, the subject site is now located just outside the bounds of the wellfield. The design to be submitted will assume the property is within a Wellfield Protection Zone. The Schematic Design shall include a comprehensive study, inspection and report of the existing project area conditions, which shall include below-grade utilities, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, etc. A/E shall develop a design and plan to replace the existing UST with same-capacity, or larger, AST. Design shall include the usage of existing utility connecting the preexisting UST (i.e., plumbing, electrical conduit, etc.) to the main facility building. Design and plan shall also include the consideration of future expansion of additional AST throughout the facility footprint, or replacement of proposed AST with larger capacity tanks. A/E shall provide a preliminary construction duration time for planning purposes. This information shall be communicated to all bidders for their review and inclusion within their bids. It shall be communicated within the bid documents that the contractor will be required to review and provide any concerns regarding the projected construction duration. A/E will be responsible for complete functional design and provide biddable documents meeting all the requirements. The VA Technical Information Library (TIL) available at http://www.cfm.va.gov/til/index.asp is managed by the VA Office of Construction and Facility Management. It is the master repository for all VA Numbered Standards for Construction to include design and construction specifications, procedures, standard details, BIM/CAD standards, equipment guides, space planning and design guides. The documents of the TIL shall be the minimum design criteria for all VA projects performed in the construction of new facilities and the modernization, alteration, addition, or improvement of its real property. VA additionally through the documents on the TIL has adopted the latest edition of the following codes and standards (but not limited to): Occupational, Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standards International Building Code (IBC) National Electrical Code (NEC) NFPA 101 Life Safety Code National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Codes, except for NFPA 5000 and NFPA 900 National Standard Plumbing Code (NSPC) Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) A 17.1 ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code ASME Code for Pressure Piping International Plumbing Code (IPC) Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standard (ABAAS) for Federal Facilities Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete, American Concrete Institute (ACI 318 2) and Commentary (ACI 318 R2) Manual of Steel Construction, Load and Resistance Factor Design Specifications for Structural Steel Buildings, American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) Energy policy Act of 2005 (EPAct)Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality ASHRAE Standard 62.1 DOE Interim Final Rule: Energy Conservation Standards for New Federal, Commercial and Multi-Family High-Rise Residential Buildings and New Low-Rise Residential Buildings, 10 CFR Parts 433, 434 and 435 Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Buildings: Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Executive Order 13423: Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management The Provisions for Construction and Safety Signs.
