The Scope of Work shall include the base and option items listed below. Base Item, Site 1: Surface Parking Lot - Carport PV (see site plan attachment 11). The intent for Site 1 is to have carport structures providing a minimum 550 kW of power (DC Wattage). The carports are to be double cantilevered steel frame structures and rail supported modules (i.e. the solar module arrays will attach to rail supports rated for 140 mph winds and NOT a metal standing seam type roof). The steel frame is to be painted white. At each of 4 potential entrances to this site install a height indicator over both travel lanes that limits entrance to 8 feet and 6 inches so as to provide protective measure for steel canopy and PV module railing system. The electric power generated by this Solar PV system may be supplied to the closest switchgear with available capacity that connects to the facility distribution system. The surface parking lot adjacent to the parking garage is constructed of asphalt pavement and concrete traffic islands to control traffic movement and to contain landscaping. The parking lot has 2-lane traffic between parking bays that are all striped perpendicular to the traffic lanes. The parking lot has trees along the perimeter and in several of the traffic islands. The trees located in the traffic islands adjacent to the proposed canopies are to be removed and hauled off site. Tree stumps and roots are to be grinded to a minimum of 6 inches below existing grade. Base Item: A $100,000 allowance for Utility interconnection fees/equipment/services is included. Actual amounts will need to be determined after award of contract. Option Item, Site 2: Building 25 electric scooter charging station and covered parking (see site plan, Attachment 11). The intent for site 3 is a steel framed structure providing a minimum 2.5 kW of power (DC Wattage). The steel framed structure shall cover the 7 spaces at the existing electric scooter charging station area located at Building 25 (see site plan). A solar module array will connect to the facilities distribution grid. The steel framed structure is to be anchored into the concrete footings that already exist at this location. The steel framed structure is to be painted white and is to have rail supported modules that are designed for 140 mph wind loads. Option Item, Site 3: Building 14 roof top PV (see site plan, Attachment 11). The intent for site 3 is to construct a solar PV system providing a minimum 40 kW of power (DC Wattage) that connects to the metal standing seams of the existing roof of Building 14.
