Army Projects, Indefinite Delivery Contract
Fort Lewis, Washington

Washington Engineering personnel provided multi-disciplinary A/E services throughout Western Washington for the following US Army Projects:

Cleaning, Repair and Modification of Water Tank - Accomplishment of interior and exterior painting of the 600,000 gallon main water reservoir at the Yakima Firing Center, Work included structural modifications for compliance with OSHA regulations and design of a drainage piping and an outfall structure.

Upgrading of the Central Vehicle Wash Facility - This project involved improvements at the Yakima Firing Center to a closed cycle wash facility used for washing wheeled and tracked vehicles. Major work items included installation of a trench drain, paving improvements, lining of an equalization basin and replacement of two sand filter beds.

Landfill Closure and Monitoring System - This project designed a closure and gas monitoring system for the landfill at the Yakima Firing Center. The project included a lysimeter for leachate collection, installation of three gas monitoring probes, storm drainage improvements and perimeter fencing. The project included preparation of an Operations Manual and a Closure/Post Closure Manual.

Madigan Building Reutilization Study - This project involved preparation of an engineering study of alternatives for reutilization of approximately 35 buildings in the old Madigan Hospital area which became available for reassignment when the new hospital was occupied. The study evaluated three different groups of tenant options to determine the feasibility of relocation and the associated modifications which would be required and associated cost estimates.

Economic Analysis of Incinerator/Landfill Options - This project was an economic analysis of options for completing construction of the waste incinerator at Fort Lewis, WA. Some of the options included long haul to a regional landfill, usage of the on-post landfill for both an ash cell and a municipal solid waste cell and operating options, including third party contracting option for operation of the incinerator. Performance was rated as Outstanding by the Seattle District COE on this project.

Hot Refueling Point - This project constructs three concrete hardstands with underground valve pits, 1000 feet of taxiways with semi-flush lighting fixtures, 40,000 gallons of underground jet fuel tankage, a 500 square foot operations building and associated site and utilities improvements to support helicopter refueling operations at Fort Lewis.

All of these projects included preparation of drawings, specifications, cost estimates and design analyses in accordance with the Seattle District Corps of Engineers A/E Guide.
