Work will include replacing valves and discharge piping in addition to furnishing and installing 480V motor control centers (MCC) including new cabling, conduit, switchgear, and variable frequency drives as specified in the plans and specifications. The oil water separator work consists of concrete cutting and coring and of rounding concrete corners. Concrete cutting and coring will be through concrete 2' thick, including rectangular openings on the order of 3' by 1', and core drilling on the order of 6" dimeter or less. Install a system of weirs in the drainage tunnel, access hatches for the weirs and skimmer belt, piping in the drainage tunnel to collect and route leakage water to the north end of main unit 1, a belt skimmer located in the draft tube access gallery where it passes over the drainage tunnel with the skimmer belt dipping into the drainage tunnel, emergency closure gate at the skimmer belt hatch, decanter tank at the skimmer outlet, and oil collection tank to hold the oil recovered by the skimmer. A pump will be provided for pumping the collected oil into disposal containers and electrical controls and annunciation will be provided to control the operation of the skimmer. Overhead hoist system, 2 ton capacity, will be installed for equipment handling. The flow of water into the drainage tunnel cannot be stopped, therefore, the contractor will be responsible for care and diversion of water to maintain acceptable working conditions in the drainage tunnel during the construction period. Work will also involve the removal and reinstallation of an 18" gate valve. The contract requires completion of all work within finite work windows. Work must be coordinated to minimize the interruption to the drainage and unwatering systems as well as ancillary services within the powerhouse. The Contractor must be able to staff (supervision and labor) and provide on-site physical plant to support multiple daily work shifts to meet the requirements of the aggressive construction schedule constraints.
