3.0 SITE ANALYSIS

NOTE: This is a hidden text note that will not print when the HIDDEN TEXT box in "Print -Options" is unchecked.

This section includes the description of all site related information broken out into Existing Site Conditions and Site Development Requirements.

Provide graphics and photos on requirements that can be illustrated in this Section. Include large scale graphics, drawings, and field investigation reports for hazardous materials and substances as attachments in Part 6 of the RFP. Comply with UFC 3-810-01N, Navy and Marine Corps Environmental Engineering for Facility Construction for requirements on field investigations of hazardous materials and substances. Also enter Project title, location, and contract number information for page headers under the Header and Footer view.

3.1 Existing Site Conditions

NOTE: See UFC 4-740-14 Ch 2 Planning and Layout, Site Planning, and all subsections identifying important site parameter factors. Ensure that the selected site meets these criteria.

Note the importance of existing environmental site conditions and the appropriateness of locating a CDC over a contaminated or previously contaminated site. Also refer to UFC 4-740-14 Ch 2 Planning and Layout, Soil Testing.

Provide an environmental site assessment and soils test report for hazardous materials as part of the RFP

Specific items of importance to note from the UFC 4-740-14 are maximum grades or slopes while trying to maintain the natural terrain, and maintaining the natural habitat while considering the concern for choking hazards that and poisonous plants.

NOTE: The following outlines the types of information typically addressed. Provide subheadings and information applicable to the project.

        polychlorinated biphenyls, low-level radioactive components, animal droppings,
        mold and spores, storage tanks, contaminated soil or groundwater, chlordane,
        or other hazardous materials and contaminates.)
        Fencing
        Adjacent Land Use
        Cultural Resources (historical, archeological)
        AICUZ / Explosive Arcs / HERO
        Permits

3.2 Site Development Requirements

NOTE: See UFC 4-740-14 Ch 2, Planning and Layout, Site Planning, and all subsections for important site development factors.

See UFC 4-740-14 Ch 3 General Design Criteria, Site Design, and all subsections for comprehensive criteria.

See UFC 4-740-14 Ch 5 Outdoor Activity Areas and all subsections for general understanding of outdoor activity area requirements. Only address the civil technical issues associated with these areas in this section of the document to avoid duplication of information. See RFP section 4.2 and 4.3 for Space Relationships characteristics and Exterior Character respectively. See RFP Section 2.6 special design challenge where this area of design should be noted and RFP section 5 Room Requirements where these spaces will be listed with an individual room definition sheet.

Do not exceed the maximum slopes or grades stated in the UFC 4-740-14,

Careful consideration needs to be given to plants selected or maintaining the natural habitat considering the concern for creating choking hazards. In addition do not select poisonous plants as stated in UFC 4-740-14.
