Description/Scope of Work: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires repairs to an existing chain link fence installed in the late 1990's that is situated around the approximately 3500-foot perimeter of an inactive landfill formerly used by the US Air Force. The project site is located adjacent to Sunset Golf Course, Middletown, PA, in a partially wooded area, with rocks and boulders, some steep slopes and limited vehicular access. The perimeter fence consists of 6-foot tall, galvanized steel, chain link fencing, capped with 3-strands of barbed wire supported by outward angled support arms. Sections of the fence have been damaged by fallen trees in three locations, totaling approximately 100-lineal feet of fence, poles, barbed wire support arms and barbed wire that need to be replace with identical or similar materials. In addition, due to erosion, approximately 10 fence poles set in concrete pads need to be replaced, 4 areas where erosion has undermined between poles need to be backfilled, approximately 20 new barbed wire support arms need to installed, approximately 500-lineal feet of existing barbed wire needs to be tightened, and approximately 1000-linial feet of fencing need barbed wire replaced. Fence repairs involving gates are not required. Fallen sections of trees will be removed from the fence line by others prior to initiation of fence repair activities. Vehicle access is possible adjacent to two of the three areas requiring complete fence replacement, with one approximately 20-foot long section approximately 200-feet from the access road. Fence replacement adjacent to the Sunset Golf Course driving range will be coordinated with the Golf Course Manager, to limit impact to Golf Course activities. Performance objectives for this work are to restore complete fence security, using materials that match the existing fence to the extent possible. It is anticipated that this work will be performed in late-August or September of 2018.
