- Please contact Dawn Hickman at Dawn.R.Hickman@nws02.usace.army.mil for any questions regarding this project. The Seattle District Corps of Engineers has a competitive requirement for construction services on a project titled, FY08 Railroad Upgrade, Fort Lewis, Washington. The project consists of constructing a facility that provides the following: 1) Expansion of the Interchange (IC) Yard in the Logistics Center, both widening and lengthening. The design removes a total of 4 existing trac ks on the south side and adds 3 new tracks on both the north and south sides of the main lines, for a total of 6 new lines, presently serving Ft. Lewis. Total additional track in the IC Yard area amounts to approximately 10,200 linear feet of track, ties and ballast as well as associated crossovers, highway grade crossing and all site work associated with the expansion of the IC Yard. A gravel maintenance road is to be provided on both he north and south sides of the IC Yard. New exterior lighting and fe ncing will be provided on the most of the perimeter of the new yard. 2) To accommodate expansion of the IC yard, East Lincoln Road and its rail crossing must be diverted and extended around the new yard. A sweeping S-curve alignment will be re plicated approximately 1,200 feet east of the existing location. The new road will include two 12-foot pavement sections and 4-foot gravel shoulders. Normal pavement markings and signage are included, but only crossbuck signs at the rail crossing will be provided, without additional signalization. 3) Construction of a new Locomotive Maintenance Facility (LMF) of approximately 5,800 square feet. (Demolition of the existing LMF will be accomplished under separate contract.) The new enclosed facil ity will provide maintenance and storage space for three locomotives along with a small office/breakroom space. Approximately 800 linear feet of track, ties and ballast along with turnouts are associated with the new entrance to the LMF from the IC lead t racks. Track design follows the basic BNSF design of 12-foot shoulders, walkway ballast and drainage ditches on either side. The rail design also incorporates a 2-panel at-grade crossing on the east side of the building. Shop equipment includes a 7.5-to n bridge crane, storage and pumps for lubricants and glycol, an air compressor, welding equipment, storage shelves, and a small exterior hazardous materials storage building for lubricants and glycol. The LMF will house the following spaces: a small offic e area, tool/janitor area, bathroom with shower, electrical and communications closets, the shop area (4900 sq. ft.) with a below-ground-surface maintenance pit for one locomotive space and several large overhead coiling doors. The concrete slab is reinfo rced in the shop area for jacking a 120-ton locomotive. The mechanical design incorporates high-intensity infrared heaters for the shop area and a split system, air-source heat pump for the small office/break room. Fans and louvers provide summer ventila tion and incorporate sensors and controls to exhaust fumes generated during short-duration operation of locomotives. Roof is standing-seam metal, siding is metal with low-wall brick veneer. Windows utilize laminated glass. Building will be sprinklered w ith a wet-pipe system. Construction means, methods and materials will result in a LEED-NC rating of silver on the LMF building. 4) Utility runs to the LMF include domestic and fire water supply, electrical power, copper and fiber optic communica tion lines and stormwater management facilities. Electrical service includes relocation of overhead to underground service a distance of approximately 2400 feet, including some additional manholes and concrete-encased raceway under roadways, connecting to a 225 kVA transformer outside the LMF, pad mounted on a concrete vault. Some steel casing of lines beneath railroad track is required. Sanitary Sewer service includes provision of a duplex grinder pump station and 2,240 feet of 1?-inch forced main and approximately 120-feet of 4-inch gravity main. Water service will be provided by extension of an 8-inch ductile iron main approximately 1,175 feet to the LMF si te. Stormwater facilities include a bioinfiltration facility receiving sheet flow and piped roof drainage. Grade requirements may force importation of as much as 89,000 yards of suitable fill. Unsuitable soils removal could amount to approximately 42,00 0 yards, emanating from approximately 1? feet of unsuitable material removal from the top of previously undeveloped areas. The estimated construction cost range is $10,000,000-25,000,000 and the performance period is estimated at 365 calendar days. The NAICS code for this project is 237990.
