Project Description: This project will include construction of a Nuclear Regional Maintenance Facility (NRMF) and related facilities and site improvements to consolidate Nuclear Regional Maintenance Department's (NRMD) nuclear maintenance functions at NSB Kings Bay. The site is located within the Waterfront Restricted Area (WRA) and subject to additional security restrictions for access of personnel, equipment and materials. The project scope includes, but is not limited to, construction of the NRMF, a new 137,153 SF precast panel and structural steel frame building, with aggregate pier ground improvements and spread footings with reinforced concrete slab on grade, including incidental site work, pavements, utilities, drainage and demolition work. The roof structure will consist of standing-seam metal over a roof metal deck. The facility will include nuclear repair shops, ship services support and applied instruction. The facility will also include an emergency generator to support the fire suppression system fire pump. Built-in equipment includes industrial/rotating shelving units, a paint booth, one passenger/freight combination elevator and emergency generator. In addition, the project scope includes construction of a new lift station, upgrades to an existing lift station, a relocated dredge pipe, a stand-alone 10,386 SF emergency vehicle canopy to house 12 emergency vehicles/trailers, a 3,116 SF temporary facility to support personnel from Building 5233, and an operational and employee vehicle parking facility for approximately 300 vehicles, with supporting infrastructure, including stormwater drainage features and lighting. The project also includes modification, maintenance, and demolition of the temporary security infrastructure installed by the adjacent Dry Dock Repair (DDR) project. The DDR installed temporary infrastructure, creates a “free zone” where the contractor can work outside the waterfront restricted area (WRA) with less security, improving productivity. The intent is for this project to reuse portions of this temporary infrastructure, including monitored security fencing, a pedestrian bridge, and multiple laydown areas/gravel parking lots. Dry Dock Road will be repaved following removal of the security fence. Electrical utilities include primary and secondary distribution systems, service transformer, site lighting, telecommunications infrastructure, lightning protection and grounding. Mechanical utilities include potable water lines including fire hydrants, sanitary sewer lines, sanitary lift station and oil/water separator. This also includes relocation of an existing dredge pipe that traverses the site. Environmental mitigation includes a gopher tortoise survey to identify and relocate any gopher tortoises found in advance of construction activities. Demolition includes the removal of Building 5233, a 335 m2, pre-engineered metal building that will be demolished to clear the site for this project. Buildings 5194, 5195 and 5196 (each 56 m2) will be demolished upon completion of this project. Paving and site improvements including retaining walls, access roads, asphalt and concrete pavement, organizational parking inside the WRA (approximately 30 spaces), sidewalks, equipment pads, landscaping, pedestrian foot bridges, pedestrian and bicycle features, stormwater structures and drainage features, temporary facility site work and site demolition. Any resultant contract will be firm-fixed price.
